WonderLab's Wonderful Bubble Solution
Ingredients: 7 oz blue Dawn dish liquid * 1/4 cup glycerin (available in the pharmacy section of most stores) or white corn syrup * 1 gallon warm water
Equipment: a clean gallon jug with lid * 2 cup measuring cup with spout * long handled mixing spoon * bubble blowers or other things for playing with bubbles, such as berry baskets, large loops of cotton string, wire whisks, or anything else you want to experiment with!
Mix Dawn and glycerin (or corn syrup) in the measuring cup. Pur into the gallon jug and gently fill the remainder of the jug with warm water. Run the water down the inside wall of the jug to reduce suds. Mix well with the long handle of a mixing spoon.
For the best bubbles, mix your bubble solution the night before you want to use it. Pour solution into a smaller container for use.
Remember: Bubbles love wet surfaces! Make sure your hands are wet with bubble solution when playing with bubbles. Be a safe scientist: don't drink bubble solution!
