How to Make Bubbly Fun with Kids
- In a large mixing bowl, pour in 6 cups of water and add 1 cup of dish soap. Stir gently until combined to avoid creating foam.
- Carefully mix in ¼ cup of glycerin or 2 tablespoons of corn syrup. This thickening agent helps create long-lasting bubbles—just be sure not to stir too vigorously!
- Using a whisk or spoon, stir the mixture slowly to blend all ingredients. Take your time here; a gentle motion is key for fluffy bubbles!
- Allow your bubble solution to sit overnight. This resting period is crucial for enhancing the bubble’s size and durability—great things take time!
- When you’re ready, pour the solution into wide, shallow trays. This makes for easy dipping with the bubble wands, ready for fantastical fun ahead!
- Dip your bubble wand in the solution, then move it slowly through the air to create those giant, enchanting bubbles. Remember, slow and steady wins the race!
Notes
Store any leftover bubble solution in an airtight container. It can last up to 2 weeks; for longer storage, refrigerate it for up to a month.
