Picnic Fun, Food and Safety
shallow, rectangular plastic storage container are great for older children to make large bubbles and to use with berry baskets for very young children.
Several weeks before you expect to use it, you can mix up a big batch, put it in a gallon milk jug and let it sit. The bubbles seem to hold together better when the mixture is "aged". Try to have a supply "curing" while the kids are enjoying the current batch. You can also save and refill commercial bubble solution bottles. Make bubble blowers from a straw, a kitchen funnel, or a thin wire shaped in creative forms.
Don't forget the frisbees, balls, bats, skates, bikes, etc. I would suggest putting all the toys in a rubbermaid container so it is kept all together and it is easy to haul around from place to place.
