Kids love to make bubbles and watch the bubbles float throw the air. Buying bubble from a store in a plastic jar is a great way to let the kids make bubbles and have some fun. You can also make bubbles yourself from the ingredients in your kitchen. Making the bubble liquid can be a part of the fun.
Making the bubble liquid is a good learning process and can be a good activity to do with your child. You can make as much bubble liquid as you like. You can make a lot of bubble liquid or just a tiny amount. Making bubble liquid is easy to do.

All you need tom make your own home made bubbles is clear liquid dish soap and some water. A shallow container or a plastic jar will be good to have the liquid in while in use. You will also need to plastic container to store any unused bubble liquid in. You will also need a wand of some kind to produce the bubbles with. A pipe cleaner that is bent so it makes a circle on the end works well to make bubbles with. Or a small rope or thick thread will work to make bubbles with. The idea of a wand is something with a circle that will pick up the bubble liquid. Then you can blow air through the circle and a bubble should come out of the other side.

To make the bubble liquid take the same amount of water and mix it with the same amount of clear liquid dish soap. Stir the two ingredients together gently because if you are too fast when you stir it the mixture will get to bubbly and you will have to wait until the bubbles disappear before you can use it.

After you have made a batch of bubble liquid you can pour it into a container that you can use to make bubbles with. The bigger the circle you use as a wand the bigger the container will need to be. If you use a big circle of rope you will need a container big enough for the circle to fit into. If you use a rope or a circle that is not steady you will have to hold the circle open with two hands. Pipe cleaners work well since they can hold their own circle shape.
