DIY: Massive Bubbles and Wands

Earlier this summer we went to Michigan’s Lavendar Festival. It was a nice outing for the family, it offered dancing, music, and crafts galore. It was like walking into Etsy. Quite literally, a women actually had a old fashioned gypsie caravan. She set up a whimsical themed fairy garden in the entire thing and allowed customers to walk through it for a small donation. She also had on display homemade bubble wands and the big bubble mixture to go with it.

I love making big bubbles with the kids and it was a great experience for us all. Since then, I’ve been trying to recreate it and I think I’ve gotten it figured out. If you want to make homemade bubble wands that make massive bubbles and the bubble solution to go with it, then this tutorial is for you.

You will need:

  • Pipe Cleaners
  • 1/4 inch diameter dowel rod
  • Scotch Masking Tape

This was a little complicated to explain so I put together a quick video tutorial click below to view.

For the bubble mixture you will need:

  • 1 cup dawn dish soap
  • 14 cups of water
  • 1/8-1/4 cup of xanthan gum

Mix all of your ingredients together and pour it in a flat dish for bubble wand dipping. I’ve paired this craft with this book:

My Oldest loves this activity and through the whole experience she imagined riding bubbles. In her magical world she was riding her bubbles through earths atmosphere into outer space. She’s fascinated about the solar system and this is one way she plans to get there apparently. 😉

I hope you enjoyed this quick guide, happy bubble making!

About Sarah

Just the name of my blog gives me away. Hi, There! I am Sarah Bliss, author of Holistic Homeschooler. I am happily married to the man of my dreams and together we raise two adorable children

We obviously homeschool and believe home education is more than academics.

I hold a personal philosophy that homeschooling is holistic and encompasses the whole child-body, mind, heart, spirit.

When I refer to the spirit, I mean the holy spirit. That ones own spirit needs daily nourishment from the word of God.

I  homeschool mainly using a Charlotte Mason Philosophy of Education. I absolutely love nature which is why the nature study aspect of Charlotte’s philosophy really speaks to me. We spend hours outside, on nature walks or the occasional hike.

Additionally, I have a burning desire to take our homeschool Journey on the road and share our travel adventures with anyone who will read or listen. Yet, this is a plan in progress so for now we are casually road-schooling.

Finally-I am a Registered Nurse, with the heart to spread educational information on health, wellness, and physical fitness. 

I hope to be a source of encouragement and inspiration as we travel along this homeschool journey together.
