Whether you're 5 or 50, blowing bubbles is just plain fun. You don't need to purchase ready-made bubble solution, though, to enjoy making beautiful bubbles. Keep a little bottle of glycerin in the cupboard and you'll always be just moments away from beautiful bubbles. You can usually find safe glycerin in the laxative section of a pharmacy or grocery store. Mix smaller batches of bubble solution to refill small bottles or try this bigger recipe in a bucket and experiment with ways to make bigger, better bubbles.

Add 2/3 cup of plain dish soap and 3 tablespoons of glycerin. With a long-handled spoon, gently stir the mixture until the ingredients are well blended. Try to avoid creating foam since the bubbles will not form as well.

Transfer the mixture into smaller bottles or a shallow dish such as a pie plate. A turkey baster or a cup and a funnel make it easier to fill small containers.
