bubbles

Might seem like a daft question - but bear with me . Ds has severe speech delay and we are doing a lot of bubble blowing to help with certain sounds. Trouble is bubbles seem to be rubbish these days - I am having trouble blowing bubbles out of them. Anyone found a really good make of bubbles - thanks

If you add baking powder or sugar to the solution it increases the surface tension of he bubbles. Also high humidity helps.

I don't know if they still do them but tesco sold bubbles that looked like ice cream.My ds and one of my nieces had a love for bubbles and they were thier favs and there was good bubble solution in them so plenty of bubbles

DDY - ds would love ice cream bubbles

Gymboree bubbles are expensive but brilliant.
When they land on a surface they don't burst (who knows what they are made of but we use them outdoors just in case!).

I would also recommend their bumpy grab ball - it's squishy enough for little hands to catch more easily than a normal ball.

Gazillion bubbles are also good. again pricey but good
