Giant Bubbles! (My Homemade Bubble Recipe!)
Thanks for popping by to watch this episode on giant bubbles :P In this one, I teach you how to make a bubble wand and a simple bubble mix recipe for some super-sized bubbles! They're unbelieva-bubble!
There's a lot of science in bubbles :) Bubbles are air trapped inside a thin layer of bubble mix. The bubble mix is actually a layer of water molecules, surrounded on both sides by detergent molecules.
Back in episode 2 we learnt that detergent has a part that loves water and a part that doesn’t. The part that loves water sticks in to the layer of water, and the part that doesn’t sticks out. A bubble will burst when the water in the middle layer evaporates. Adding glycerine slows this down making them last longer!
This is my last video for the year - I've had so much fun making these videos and can't wait to be back next year for more science! Thank you for watching, and a big thanks for reading through my video description - you're the best!

Soap bubbles that don't burst (How to make unbreakable bubbles–Experiment)
This experiment is not included in the MEL Chemistry subscription.
For MEL Science safe experiments subscription go here:
If you want to amaze the kids with a magic soap bubble show, you don’t have to hire magicians. You can perform the magic yourself!
Reagents and equipment:
* water;
* liquid soap;
* glycerin;
* plastic pipette;
* cup.
Step-by-step instructions
Pour water and liquid soap into a glass cup, and add glycerin. Mix the solution. Put on woolen gloves. Take a pipette, cut off one end, dip it in the solution and start blowing soap bubbles. Take a bubble in your hand and play with it, tossing it from one hand to another.
Processes description
Why doesn’t the soap bubble burst? The glycerin makes the wall of the bubble denser and stronger. And the area of contact of the bubble with the glove is reduced thanks to the wool, and so the bubble doesn’t burst for a long time.
How to Make Giant Bubbles
New video demonstrating a Guar Gum recipe:
I had more fun making this video than any I can remember in the recent past. Making giant bubbles may turn into an ongoing hobby. Some of my younger cousins have certainly enjoyed it as well! The bubbles seen in this video all used the three part bubble mix that I show being made.
24 oz Dishwashing Liquid
1 tbsp J-Lube (The most important part for giant bubbles)
3 US gal Water
After filming all the shots used in this video I started experimenting with baking powder and found that 3 tbsp added to the above mix improves the longevity and durability of the bubbles significantly. The ones in the video may have been large, but I have since been able to make them much larger! As I mention at the end of the video, the size increases greatly as you learn.
Here is a source for J-Lube as promised (one bottle makes hundreds of gallons of bubble mix):
For those outside of the USA it may be difficult to find J-Lube. An alternative giant bubble mix uses Guar Gum instead, and quite effectively. Guar Gum is common worldwide. More info about bubble mixes using Guar Gum and where it is usually available for purchase can be found here:
For my bubble wand I use two fishing poles similar to this model:
The fishing poles come in four sections, but I removed the last section because it was too flimsy to support the heavy wet rope. The tri string loop is attached to the end of the third section of each pole. As shown in the video, I use carabiners as an easy way of taking loops on and off, though a loop could just as easily be taped directly to the pole.
The rope I use for my tri string loop is 100% cotton clothes line with the core removed as demonstrated. Removing the core allows the rope to absorb significantly more bubble mix which allows much larger bubbles to be made. For more information about making a tri string wand (it's not a difficult thing to figure out on your own) you can do more reading here (there are also listed a number of other wand types that may be of interest):
Thank you for being one of the proud few who read video descriptions! If you would really like to help me out I would love it if you would share this video on Facebook, Twitter, or whatever else the kids are using these days. Thanks for watching! #NightHawkInLight

How to make a BASIC BUBBLE RECIPE
This is a basic bubble mixture using simple household ingredients.
I wanted to show you a fast and easy way to make bubbles without any crazy ingredients. With this BASIC BUBBLE RECIPE you will be able to create your own bubbles and this mixture can also be used for your bubble machines at home.
INGREDIENT LIST:
- 1 CUP Room temperature Water ( 20–22 °C OR 68–72 °F
- 1/2 CUP Hot Water (Careful when handling)
- 2 TBSP Sugar (Any Sugar is fine)
- 1/2 CUP DISH SOAP (Dawn is my favorite)
Tips:
- Dilute the sugar with the hot water before mixing all components together
- Avoid creating too many suds when mixing
- Make sure you use a clean bowl when mixing- any dirt or chemicals can destroy the bubbles
- Filtered water is the best
