Growing up, my mom would always just refill with a squirt of dishsoap, and then fill it up with water.
Oh now I knew about glycerin in bubble mix but didn’t know you could substitute with sugar! Awesome… I am definitely going to try this out!
Same here! I usually have glycerin around but the bubble mix uses a fair bit so I tend to only make it occasionally – being able to use sugar will make it much easier and cheaper and let us do bubbles more often. thanks!
I haven’t had much luck with bubbles before, but I didn’t know about the glycerin/sugar, so will have to try that the next time we run out 🙂
I didn’t know about the sugar either. Great to note.
Heidi’s first word was bubble, so we have lots of bubbles around our place 🙂

Great information here because it is a major disaster to accidentally spill all the bubble mix. B has often asked me to make more and now I can. Thanks
I totally agree that there is a fine art to getting kids to really describe things and think about differences. I love how you asked the square bubble question.
What a wonderful post! I am always on the lookout for that perfect bubble mix recipe. Glad to hear that sugar works in place of glycerin. As a family we’ve recently stopped eating sugar, and now I can use up what we have left in the pantry for bubble mixture instead.

My girls love blowing bubbles in the bath – and would definitely say the bigger the bubble the better! I wondered if you might come and link up with our Play Academy on Fridays – it would be great to have some science ideas.

I love your science-y family comment in the introduction 🙂 Need you to send some of your science-y vibes this way as I am so not scientifically minded!
