Bubbles

On Friday at the library party my kids were entranced with the bubbles.  SOOOO I couldn't resist mixing up a batch and doing a bubble day, nor could I resist the fun picture opportunity ...

We also had some bowls with straw/string frames to make smaller ones.  It amazed us how long they would fly without popping.

Bubbles are just so magical!  We enjoy them in freezing temperatures where they freeze and crash like glass balls.  AND we sure enjoy them in the summer floating on the breezes.

Both of those bubble wands are like the one we have.

My bubble recipe is

6 Tb glycerin (found in the soap making section of craft stores)
