Bubbles! What child can resist bubbles? Not mine, they love them
and well, so do I. There is something so peaceful and calming about
a floating bubble, and kids just squeal with delight when you had
them some bubble solution and a wand!
Many stores sell bubble solution, and while not a bad alternative,
it can really add up if you have a true bubble loving bunch! I have
compiled for you several bubble recipes, that are all easy to make.
Try your hand at one or more of them - the kids will love you for
it!
