One of the coolest things I saw at the Bay Area Maker Faire this year was a group of people using a simple string-and-sticks tool to blow enormous soap bubbles. Toni at Design Dazzle has a wonderful tutorial for creating your own giant bubble set for your kids. It includes the recipe for the soap mix, instructions on how to assemble the wand tool, and even some printable labels for your bottles!

I don't think you've really lived until you've blown a bubble this big:
