DIY Non-Toxic Glow in the Dark Bubbles

If there’s one summer distraction that I love, it’s the bubbles. I usually keep a small bottle in my purse for those toddler meltdowns that are rarely cured. These glow in the dark bubbles are a fun addition to camp-outs and sleepovers in the backyard. They’re easy to make, and you probably have all of the ingredients at home right now.

Instructions:

Step 1: Use your pliers to open up the highlighter. Pull the end off of the marker and gently shake out the ink stick (technical term?).

Step 2: Working over the bubble solution, gently pinch and squeeze out the fluorescent ink until a small amount (4 to 6 drops) has been added.

Step 3: Let the fluorescent ink mix well into the bubble solution. Close the lid tightly and shake, shake, shake.

Now the fun part.

Go snag a blacklight to really bring out that fluorescent glow, and blow!

It was a bit hard to catch on camera (those little suckers are fast), but trust me, these bubbles glow like the moon. Have fun!

**Disclaimer: The fluorescent ink that is mixed in with these glow in the dark bubbles can cause a mini mess when viewed under the blacklight. Minimize the mess by wearing gloves when mixing, and take the fun outside.
