Bubbles are a favorite pastime for both children and adults. But purchased jars, as a rule, do not last long, and the solution contained in them does not allow you to inflate really beautiful large bubbles. If you have simple components, you can make your own soap solution, which will make large and durable bubbles.
It is necessary
- - 200 grams of dishwashing liquid;
- - 100 milliliters of glycerin;
- - 600 milliliters of water;
- - two sticks or branches;
- - rope;
- - weight.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a soapy solution. You will need the following ingredients: 200 grams of dish soap, 100 milliliters of glycerin, and 600 milliliters of water. Glycerin is necessary for the walls of the bladder to be stronger and the bladder itself to be more durable. The solution water should be soft, as the salts in hard water make the bubbles very fragile. To soften the water, boil it and let it sit for a while so that the salts settle to the bottom. Use only warm water for the solution. Add the rest of the ingredients to it and mix thoroughly.
Step 2
Make a bubble blower. The most effective construction consists of two sticks fastened together in the form of the letter V, with a rope tied to them, forming a loop in the shape of a triangle. As a rigid base, you can use both purchased sticks and tree branches or long thick wire. To make the appearance of the device more aesthetic, holes must be drilled in the sticks and special hooks inserted into them, through which the rope can be threaded. If you have chosen thick wire for the holders, simply bend the ends to make the loops for the rope. In the event that you do not want to waste too much time, you can simply wind the rope around the sticks. To make a triangle out of the rope, hang a small weight on it.
Step 3
Inflate bubbles in calm weather or light winds. After lowering the inflator into the solution, raise it and gradually step back so that the flow of wind inflates the bubble. To inflate bubbles at home, use a cut-end cocktail straw or commercially available large-diameter rings.
