Spring Family Activities

Bubbles. Who doesn’t love bubbles. And it is even more fun when you make your own and use a big wand.

Here’s how:

Supplies needed:

1 big bucket

1 cup dish soap

1 Tbsp glycerine or corn syrup

4 cups water

2 drinking straws

Yarn or string 6-8x longer than 1 straw

Food coloring for colorful bubbles

Instructions:

Place dish soap, glycerine and water in the bucket.

Thread yarn through the straws and tie a knot.

Holding on straw in each hand dip it in the bucket

Hold hands high as you walk, walking backwards generates bigger bubbles
