Bubble bath recommendations

My son loves bubble bath (who doesn't?) but he keeps going after my expensive and hard to obtain baby soap. I want to get him something that he can play with. so cheap with the most bubbles for my bucks. I also want to know what you use for self care days. Best smells, skin feel, maximum bubbles.

    Have you considered making bubble bath? Some recipes I've seen online indicate natural dish soap or baby shampoo and glycerin to make bubble bath. One of my female friends only uses Pidgeon brand baby soap to cleanse her face. It's available at some pharmacies but not everywhere. When I don't have time to go to onsen, I run a bath with yuzu or hinoki bath tablets. Way cheaper than Lush, and I love the fragrance wafting about the house.

    Not much help about bubble bath recommendations, my two are obsessed with the bath bombs that have small toys inside so we occasionally pick some up at Daiso. As for my own self care, I love bath bombs and bubble bars from Lush but I do think they're a bit of a splurge item. I usually break the bubble bars up into several pieces to get the most value from them, but scent wise I think they are better than any other products out there!

    I'm not sure about bubbly baths but on my self care days I like to use the onsen style bath powder (probably available in many drug stores.

Under the radar winter festivals

There are some winter festivals that get a lot of hype, like the Sapporo Snow Festival, for instance. However, as someone who doesn't like crowds, I enjoy lower-key festivals a whole lot more. Do you have any favorite winter festivals that aren't really tourist-trappy? What makes them fun or unique?

Growing Mushrooms

Here's for a weird hobby. I just saw a video by an American Youtuber that I plan to watch about growing shiitake mushrooms. From what I've seen, it probably needs a bit of space. There was a local market in Fukuoka Prefecture that had a "mushroom room" where they grew and sold mushrooms like maitake and eringi. I also saw a video of a couple in Paris that built a mushroom growing shower room! The local hardware store sells "seeded" logs and shiitake mushroom growing kits. I have seen the logs around people's homes on occasion. It seems like a very odd, but sustainable hobby. Has anyone tried it, or is anyone interested to try this? I wonder how involved or beginner friendly it is.

How do you feel about nuclear power?

This week, the mayor of Niigata officially approved the restarting of a nuclear power plant in Kashiwazaki. My home country doesn't use nuclear power, so it makes me a bit uneasy. How do you feel about it? Would you be comfortable with a nuclear power plant operating in your prefecture?
