Our Best DIY Bubble Solution
Making bubbles is fun, no matter your age. I blew bubbles as a kid, my own children blew bubbles, and now we’re blowing bubbles with the Grandkids.
My mother-in-law has always been the master DIY Bubble Solution maker. She has a lot of Grandkids (who are mostly grown now) and has made bubbling a fun family memory for them year after year. I hope to continue this tradition with my own Grands.

In preparation for this post, my Granddaughter helped me test some of these solutions to see which actually did the best job of making BIG bubbles.
Some solutions recommended Joy or Ajax dish soap, some used corn syrup, others used sugar. Each bubble solution had different proportions of ingredients. We have determined this solution to be the best and most bubbly!
Our Favorite Bubble Solution
12 Cups Water
3 Cups Dawn Dish Soap
3 Tablespoons Glycerin
**Tips:
Stir gently when mixing.
Let solution set 1 week before use.
Use a glass container – a milk carton will eventually leak if left too long.
Dip wand into solution, don’t stir with it.
B is for Bubbles.
Keep Passing Down the Love,
