DIY Bubbles + Bubble Wands.

Ages: 5+

Time: 15-30 minutes

Create your own bubble wands and explore how shaping different wands creates different bubble shapes. We’re sharing a link to the Children’s Museum of Sonoma County’s guide to making wands. We also suggest trying these two different recipes for a bubble solution – experiment with varying the proportions of ingredients to see how bubbles vary with different solution mixtures!

  • 3 cups water
  • 1/2 cup dish soap
  • 1/8 cup light corn syrup

Bubble Recipe #2

  • 2 cups hot water
