DIY Bubble Mixture Recipe

Summer vacation is coming up and do you have some activities ready for your child? Have you ever tried to make your own DIY Bubble Mixture Recipe? I have one for you that you can have on hand for your kid(s).

We LOVE blowing bubbles with our daughter. It’s the perfect distraction, a great boredom breaker and it’s less expensive than buying the stuff in the store!

The key is using Dawn dishsoap (regular), to me, that has always made the best bubble mixture.

That’s my husband Eric blowing large bubbles with my daughter and my mom is in the background in one of the pictures. We did this at my daughter’s recent 3rd birthday party.

We always save bubble wands and containers so that we can reuse them with our own DIY Bubble Mixture Recipe.
