Some of the funniest time for kids is playing outside with bubbles. Bubbles are great for all ages and even some animals like to play with them. I found a few great bubble recipes that I wanted to share so that everyone can enjoy some fun times outside this summer with your kids and animals.

Basic Bubbles:

1 cup water
2 tablespoons light karo syrup or 2 tablespoons glycerin
4 tablespoons dishwashing liquid

Mix together and have fun!

Colored Bubbles:

1 cup granulated soap or soap powder
1 quart warm water
Liquid food coloring
Plastic straws
Small juice cans

Dissolve soap in warm water. Stir in food coloring until desired color is attained. Give each child a can about 1/3 full of mix and a plastic straw to blow the bubbles.

Fancy Bubbles:

1 cup water
2 tablespoons liquid detergent
1 tablespoon glycerin
1 teaspoon sugar

Mix all ingredients together until sugar dissolves. Enjoy!
