I encourage you to get some bubble solution and just stop to admire bubbles for a little bit... even if you understand the physics of the whole thing, they feel a little like magic. Watch how the air flows in the room, blow some on a warm day and see how far the breeze takes them.

I also find that if you put the solution in your hands, at the right concentration, and then form an oval with your thumbs and forefingers, you can blow very large bubbles.

You have to start slowly, until a large curve forms, then expand the bubble until it can bud off as complete. Also it can help with a small amount of spit! :)

And get some guar gum to really get them massive! So many summer days spent with my friends making bubbles while my kids chase them.
