We made big soap bubbles this week. We mixed one cup of dish washing liquid, 10 cups of water and half a cup of glycerine in a big plastic basin. the basin was quite shallow, so we did not have to make too much.
Then we took a wire coat hanger and bent into the shape of a giant magnifying glass, and wrapped string around the outside. After everything was ready, we made bubbles. The mixture lasted about a week. We just added water and a little dish washing liquid now and again. The longest bubble tubes were about 1.5m long and the biggest bubbles were over 40cm in diameter.
