How to Make Bubble Solution

Yes, there are tricks and secrets to the perfect bubble solution. Here is the bubble recipe to make your soap-bubble last longer

My 3 year old wanted to make bubbles, so going out and buying the regular bubble maker was pretty easy. And cheap. But after only 10 minutes, she was already out of the magical bubble liquid. (I suspect she drop half on the ground, but couldn't get her to admit it)

I though : no problem ! Let's fill it up with water and some liquid dish washing soap.

But no. What a disappointment. The bubble won't even form or if they do, they are immediately popping. So here I was - a mom on a mission (again) for answers and solutions. This time, to make the perfect homemade bubble solution.

The water you will use for your homemade bubble mix is a key ingredient for the perfect bubble.

You will need SOFT water.

soft water

n.

Water containing little or no dissolved salts of calcium or magnesium, especially water containing less than 85.5 parts per million of calcium carbonate.

You need soft water to make bubbles, because hard water contains mineral salts that interfere with the formation of lather with soap. The tap water where you live could be good enough, ( you will of course have to try it yourself ) but for optimal bubble results, look for distilled water at your grocery store.

There is a friendly dispute on which dishwashing soap is the best when making your own bubble solution. Some brands are only available in certain countries, so you will have to experiment on your own, but whatever you do, do NOT use a soap for dishwashing machines. Those are made to NOT make bubbles.

This bubble solution has good reviews on amazon. The perfect bubble solution-durable enough to create long lasting, high flying bubbles

Theses ingredients are optional, but they can help slow down the evaporation of the water. Your bubble will last longer.

Glycerine is available at most drug stores and grocery stores. Do not buy the glycerine mix with other substance. Another practical additive is white Karo Syrup which you can find easily too.

You could also try to boil for 5 min some flaxseeds, wich will make an oily water. You then use this water (take out the seeds of course) while it is still hot, and add your dishwashing soap. This way, it will mix better and could help evaporate some unwanted substance from the soap.

now, mix it all toghether for the perfect outdoor game

This brand has ONE major product : soap bubbles

Since making bubbles is their specialty, I though I would mention them here.
