Bubble solutions contain a few simple ingredients which can be found at home or in your local supermarket or pharmacy. You will need liquid dishwashing detergent. The more expensive ones like Joy or Dawn work best. Mix with water then add either light corn syrup or glycerin.

Glycerin is preferable because it makes stronger bubbles and doesn't attract flying insects like the sweet syrup will. The majority of bubble solutions will include these three ingredients in varying amounts.

Experiment during your play time to see what works best for you. Weather conditions and other factors also play a role in the success of your bubble-making.
