Soap bubbles carry genuine delight, childishness, a sense of limitless happiness and complete freedom. How much mom’s shampoo or dishwashing detergent was transferred in an attempt to make a solution on its own, from which bright rainbow soap bubbles should certainly be made with your own hands!
And how much was disappointment if they did not go out or burst quickly. However, this did not mean that the bottle with the detergent would remain complete, on the contrary, the failures pushed for new and new experiments in search of the ideal composition.
Years passed, but the child sitting inside us did not mature. He sincerely admires the sight of miracles, dreams of boundless freedom and lightness. And he is still delighted with children's soap bubbles. Life does not stand still. And now your baby with a curiosity pokes a finger into an iridescent soaring miracle, claps its hands in delight when the parent blows out the biggest bubble. And so that your detergent bottles do not suffer, today we will consider several recipes for making a solution that allows you to make soap bubbles with your own hands.
Solution Recipes
The easiest way is to tap ordinary household soap into warm water, and then heat over low heat until completely dissolved. Another remedy is simpler, but for its preparation glycerin and sugar will be required in a 2: 1 ratio. The resulting mixture must be added to a dishwashing liquid diluted with water. The third way to make soap bubbles with your own hands is to mix 2 tablespoons of washing powder with three glasses of hot water, add 20 drops of ammonia to the solution and let the mixture cool. After a few days, the liquid is run through the filter, and then used as directed.
Check availability
In order to check whether you managed to make soap bubbles with your own hands or not, just dip a straw or cone-shaped tube into the solution, and then blow the first ball. If the bubble is fragile and bursts quickly, add a little glycerin or a soap base.
Giant bubbles
In order to make giant soap bubbles, it is necessary to increase the viscosity of the mixture by increasing the concentration of glycerin in it (or replace it with diluted gelatin). This will make the walls much stronger. To blow a huge soap bubble, you need to prepare a special device. To do this, take two long sticks and tie a cotton rope to them to get a loop in the shape of a triangle: there will be one side of the triangle between the sticks, and a small weight should be attached to the top.
Holding the wooden components together, dip the rope into the solution (at the first immersion, you must allow the cord to be completely saturated with liquid), then take it out, carefully spread the sticks to the sides so that the loop unfolds against the air stream. He will blow a soap bubble. Everything is simple.
Summer and windless sunny days are a great time to blow soap bubbles. Having spent not so much time on the preparation of the mortar and tools, you will give a great impression of rainbow overflows to yourself and others!
