Liquid Magic: The Complete Guide to Making Huge, Durable Soap Bubbles at Home!

There is something almost hypnotic about a soap bubble. That brief moment when light refracts through the transparent layer of colour, painting the air with a rainbow a moment of pure magic.

But who says that magic has to last only a few seconds?

The good news is there is a simple (and quite scientific) way to create huge, strong, and durable soap bubbles, the kind that last and make you feel like a real street artist.

Here is the secret formula and the tips that will take you to the next level of liquid magic.

The Winning Formula: How to Make the Perfect Bubble Solution 

Forget the simple combination of soap and water. To get real bubbles - large, flexible, and spectacular - you need to add a secret ingredient that strengthens the bubble film and protects it from evaporation and popping.

Essential Ingredients:

• 12 cups of Distilled Water (or lukewarm tap water): Distilled water is preferable as it is free of minerals that can weaken the soap.
• 1 cup of Concentrated, High-Quality Washing-Up Liquid: Fairy is highly recommended due to its high concentration. Simple washing-up liquid simply won't deliver the same result.
• ½ cup of Glycerine: This is the key component! Glycerine, which can be found at chemists/pharmacies/amazon, retains moisture within the bubble and gives it the necessary flexibility to last. If you don't have it, corn syrup will work quite well as a substitute.

The Golden Tip: The Secret that Separates a "Popping Bubble" from a "Forever Floating Bubble"

Gentle mixing and patience are the key!
Mix all the ingredients slowly and gently, to prevent too much foam from forming. Remember, foam is the enemy of large bubbles.

After mixing, cover the container and let the solution rest for at least an hour, or preferably overnight (you can even put it in the fridge). This waiting period allows the ingredients to blend perfectly, and it is the real secret that gives the bubbles their durability and glow.

Bubbles with a Twist - Cool Experiment Ideas:

The Amusing Foam Bubble Snake

• A particularly fun activity for children (and young-at-heart adults):
• Cut off the bottom of a plastic bottle.
• Stretch a clean sock over the cut opening and secure it with a rubber band.
• Dip the fabric-covered end into the solution.
• Gently blow through the bottle's mouthpiece, and watch a long, bubbling "snake" of small, connected bubbles come to life!

Rainbow-Coloured Bubbles

Want to add some colour to the magic? Add a few drops of food colouring (gel is best).
Just be aware that colour can stain, so it's best to play in the garden, on grass, or in an area that's easy to clean.
