Bubblicious


Who can boast the biggest bubble? Using the recipe below or store-bought bubble solution, see who can build the biggest bubble or make the bubble go the highest. You can also try to connect multiple bubbles or see if you can ‘catch’ them without popping.
Be careful about getting the bubble solution in the eyes as well as the grass/ground becoming slippery around bubble container.

Frugal It:
1. Get out flat container such as a 9x13 pan.
2. Pour 1/2 cup dish soap into the container.
3. Add 1 1/2 cups water to the container.
4. Measure 2 teaspoons of sugar into the water/soap mixture.
5. Gently stir your mixture.
6. Go outside and blow bubbles!

Tips:
1. Don't shake or stir your bubbles too much.
2. Store your bubbles in a tightly sealed container.
3. Experiment with blowing bubbles using different items!

Bubble Square Instructions:
1. Use two whole straws for a larger square or cut two small straws of equal size.
2. String a piece of compact twine or yarn through the two straws, leaving enough string to make a square/rectangle and tie together.
3. Use the straw sides as handles when dipping into the bubble solution.
