My kids love bubbles and I am sure your kids do too. It never ceases to amaze my how much time kids will spend playing in and blowing bubbles.  I think one of the best things I ever bought was a Bubble Machine. I got one at Target for under 10 bucks. Most of the time I just buy bubbles, but on that rare occasion I run out I have a simple recipe to make bubbles. Here is the recipe for how to make bubbles.

Bubbles Recipe

1/2 cup water
4 Tablespoons detergent
3 Tablespoons corn syrup

I know corn syrup is a strange ingredient and there may be other ways to make them. But, I am a Texas girl and I love pecan pie. So, corn syrup happens to be a staple in our household! If you are trying to figure out how to make bubbles without glycerin, this is how, by using corn syrup.

If you need some to blow the bubbles with, you can use all kinds of random things like a hanger, cookie cutters, pipe cleaners, straws,  

Now that you know how to make your own bubbles, go out and have some fun! But be careful, because making lots of big bubbles can be addictive. Suddenly, you may find yourself spending all your free time blowing bubbles around the world. And we wouldn’t want that. Would we? If you have another recipe for making bubbles I would love to hear it. Leave a comment below.
