How to make the perfect bubble mixture every time

23rd April 2020 Kids

You must have been there. You’ve ran out of bubbles from that single bottle provided and your kids are demanding more. You mix water and washing up liquid together in a vague recollection that it makes bubble solution, but the truth is that they never quite work.

We’ve played around with different mix levels for years, and we’ve finally found a formula that works.

WHAT YOU NEED

350ml water
2 tsp of sugar – stir into the water until it dissolves
add 150ml of fairy liquid, stirring gently to combine

I find fairy liquid gives the best bubbles, though obviously other washing up liquid brands are of course available.

And that’s it! This will give you a serious stash of bubble formula – half a litre in fact! – so it should last you through a good number of bubble play sessions.
