Dry Ice Bubble - Neatorama

Instead of blowing a bubble yourself, maybe the reaction of dry ice in water can blow it up for you! I'm not sure what I expected to happen here, but what happened was awfully pretty. -via Daily of the Day

1/4 cup deionized water
1 Tbsp Palmolive
1 Tbsp Vegetable Glycerine

This worked well enough for the nine year old, but I was not satisfied as I had seen better. In the future, I will try cheap dishwashing liquid instead of a brand name. I will also try to find a Pustefix Bubble Bear.

Experimentation with Palmolive and vegetable glycerin this afternoon. Results posted after the floor is swabbed.

It doesn't really matter, but I wouldn't use that 25 cents a bottle stuff from the Dollar Store, because it is way diluted. Dishwashing liquid and glycerin with enough water to give it the right consistency is a standard bubble recipe.

Do you know whether the brand of dish washing liquid matter? I really want to try this!

Very neat! BTW, that is the recipe for super-bubbles. No mater how they are blown, they will be very stable. If made from a fresh batch, they will even bounce off the floor.

Hmm... a nine year old is visiting today. I should make a batch.
