Bubbles
1/2 cup dish soap (Joy or Dawn work best)
2 cups water
3 tsp glycerin (makes the bubbles last longer)
Combine ingredients and let settle overnight. Make a bubble wand out of wire or pipe cleaners. Other item to use to "blow" bubbles: plastic strawberry basket, platic six pack holder, funnel, plastic straw cut on a slant, tape several straws together, paper cup with a hole punched in the bottom will make giant bubbles.
Another idea for a wand: "We have had great luck making giant bubbles by using cotton string and straws to make wands. Cut two sections of straws, about 6 inches long. Cut a string about 24 inches long. Pull the string through the straws, tie the string in a knot, and hide the knot inside a straw. By putting your hands on the straws and pulling, you create a square or rectangle. Dip this form into the pan of bubble solution, and gently draw it through the air. Voila, a giant bubble."
