We have been wanting to make homemade bubbles for awhile and we finally got around to it last weekend. This is a very easy process, and the bubbles turned out perfect! Making homemade bubbles allows you to make a huge batch at once and in my opinion, they turned out way better than store bought!
Supplies Needed:
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup liquid dish soap
- 1 1/2 quarts of water
- Large container with lid for storing
I bought the cheapest version of ingredients (around $4 for both) and have so much leftover. This should last us throughout the spring/summer.
Mixing the Bubbles:
Mix water and corn syrup together, then add dish soap. I did this part in a pitcher as it already had the quarts on the side. After mixing, I transferred to a container. Store bubbles in a sealed container (this red one is from Dollar Tree). The large bubble wand is also from Dollar Tree.
I think making homemade bubbles is the perfect spring/summer activity to do with kids! They can assist with making it, and then they can have fun playing! We store our extra bubble mix in the garage as it can get sticky! You can find the original post where I found the recipe here. xo
