Make a large container of this kid-friendly Homemade Bubbles Recipe using a few ingredients from your kitchen.

Girl Blowing Bubbles

I’ve always wondered why more people don’t make their own homemade bubble solution at home. It’s so easy and way less expensive than the store-bought kind.

This recipe uses ingredients that most folks have in their pantry and can be made right on the spot for instant fun by kids, young and old.

Bubbles are also super entertaining. Think it’s just for children? Fan Yang has been making unbelievable bubbles for years and his daughter Melody Yang takes making bubbles to a whole other level. Just watch this video.

How to Make Homemade Bubbles Recipe

As you can see, the sky’s the limit with your imagination with bubbles. So, what are you waiting for? Time to make a batch (or two) today!

Supplies

1 cup Dawn (or Joy Dishwashing Detergent)
10 cups of water
1/4 cup of Karo white corn syrup

Instructions

1. Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl. Mix well.

2. Keep bubble solution in a sealed container.

3. It’s also best if you allow the mixture to set overnight because the longer it sits, the bigger the bubbles!

Bubble Wands

But don’t stop there! Making bubbles is half the fun.

How about trying different wands, playing games, or even coloring bubbles?

The possibilities are endless.

Here are just a few ideas…

• Wire Coat Hanger
• Six-Pack Rings or Plastic Soda Holders
• String or Yarn
• Pipe Cleaners
• Plastic Cookie Cutters
• Cooking Spatulas with Holes
• Lids from Cottage Cheese Containers ( Cut design out of lid, like a star or cloud.)
• Straws (Just be sure not to slurp the bubble liquid.)

Bubble Games

Get everyone involved with these amazing bubble games.

Bubble Pop Game. One player blows the bubbles and the other players have to try to pop all of the bubbles first.

Bubble Tag. One player blows the bubbles and another player is “It.” Each player must pop one bubble then run to a “safe” place before the “It” player catches them.

Bubble Art

Think bubbles are just for instant delight? Not so. Bubbles can also be ephemeral with these delightful bubble art projects.

Rainbow Bubbles. Color your bubbles with food coloring. Just a drop or two will do it.

Bubble Picasso. Immortalize your bubbles by using food colored bubbles and then allowing them to burst on white paper for some crazy designs.
