Preparing the Bubble Solution

  • In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of dish soap.

  • If using glycerin, add 1 tablespoon to the mixture.
  • For best results, allow your bubble solution to sit for at least 30 minutes.

Creating Your Bubble Wand

  • Dip your wand into the bubble solution, allowing it to soak up the mixture.
  • Bring the wand gently to your lips and blow softly to create bubbles.

Enjoying the Bubbles
