Giant Bubbles

Recipe for Giant Bubbles 

Supplies You’ll Need:

1 cup dish detergent 

2 cups corn syrup 

½ cup glycerin 

Straws

Yarn string

Bowl or Bucket

Instructions: 

Mix the dish detergent, corn syrup, and glycerin in a bucket or bowl.

Add water to make it bubbly. 

Sting 2 straws with yarn. (We recommend putting a bead on the end so that the yarn doesn’t go through.)

Sweep this through the bubble liquid to make large bubbles. 

Can you see the different colors in the bubbles? 

Fun Fact:

We see colors in bubbles for a different reason. When light waves hit bubbles, some of the light gets reflected back to your eyes from the outer surface of the bubble. Some of the light also gets reflected back to your eyes from the inner surface, which is mere millionths of an inch farther away.
