My toddler loves bubbles but gets frustrated with the Melissa and Doug bubbles I bought him, plus it spills. I bought one of these no spill buckets, which should help but it didn't actually come with bubbles. http://www.amazon.com/Little-Kids-Fubbles-No-Spill-Bubble/dp/B00BN4QVEQ/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1428431681&sr=8-9&keywords=fubbles
Does brand matter? Any recommendations? |

| Really? You bought brand name bubbles? Why not just make your own? Google it, so easy. |

| Honestly, I like the ones that Rite Aid sells for like $2 for three bottles. |

| I like the long skinny tubes. They are everywhere....target etc. Least mess and tons of bubbles each time you blow. I think the wand makes the difference here because I've used many brands and dumped them in the container. |

Here's a tip- spend less than $20 and avoid choking hazards. |

| We spent about $2 at Marshalls because kid was obsessed with bubble container that had Elms's head screwed on top. The wand thing has a largre and then a few smaller circles so it actually produces quite a few bubbles and I discovered today that my 2 year could actually blow bubbles for himself (well 90% of time, the other 10% he put the wand is his mouth, so agreed you need to avoid choking hazards). |

Basic recipe: 1 cup water, 2 Tbsp dishwashing detergent (like Dawn), and 1 Tbsp glycerin. You can substitute corn syrup for the glycerin, but the glycerin bubbles last longer.
Thank you, kid's science project! |
