There is a lot of salt in tap water, and the less impurities in the components of the solution, the better the quality of the soap film - for greater density of the solution, and therefore, for greater strength of future balls, use glycerin or sugar. You can buy liquid glycerin in a pharmacy for 13 rubles; - making home soap bubbles, do not overdo it with glycerin / sugar, otherwise the solution will be dense, and bubbles will be difficult to blow; suitable for kids; - if possible, soak the finished solution for 12-24 hours, and then begin!
