Frugal Toys: DIY Giant Bubbles

Cover your hands with bubble solution.

Then place your hands together as if to form a cup, leaving a small opening at the bottom.

Hold your mouth about one foot above your hands, and BLOW!

Homemade Bubbles
 • 1/2 (500 ml) cup dish-washing liquid/soap
 • 4-1/2 (4.5 liter) cup water
4 tablespoons (60 ml) glycerin

Measure out the water, detergent, and glycerin into a container with a cover and stir gently.

Note: The longer you let the mixture set, the larger the bubbles are and the longer they seem to last.

Bouncing Bubbles

Can you make bubbles bounce?

I wonder if I made this if my dogs would appreciate it as much as kids might?

 • 1 cup distilled drinking water
 •1 Tablespoon dish soap
 •1 Teaspoon of glycerin
 •1 straw (this is just what I chose to blow the bubbles with, I'm assuming you can use a typical bubble wand)
 •1 clean glove (or sock) - (this is to keep the bubble from popping)

Mix all ingredients together and let sit for 24 hours.
