I am finally getting through with my spring clean out and today packed away the last of the winter items from our front closet. As we pack away the winter bin we get to pull out the "good weather" bin. In this bin we have summer hats, popsicle molds, outdoor toys and games, rollerblades, etc. Little Woman found this bubble blower and wanted to blow bubbles right then, so we made up a solution and she spent the afternoon blowing bubbles!
The Recipe
Little Woman was so excited to make these all by herself. She helped gather all the ingredients we would need.
We used an empty peanut container to mix our solution in. First pour in the 2 cups of water.

Measure out 3/4 cup of dishwashing liquid and add the water.
Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable glycerin.
Because I like to add essential oils to everything I make, I thought it would be fun to have "scented" bubbles. I let Little Woman smell a few different essential oils like lemon, lime, Citrus Fresh and peppermint. She wanted them to smell like candy canes so we used the peppermint. As a bonus, peppermint works as a great bug and spider repellent so as she blew her bubbles all over the porch she is also keeping ants, spiders and other bugs at bay.
Gently stir the solution together so as not to create an overflowing bubble volcano.

Now it is time for some fun!
