As mentioned, the idea is that by having more activities than the children can do they are actively engaged throughout the party, not just wandering off uninspired. An awesome science party is hands-on, with all children getting a chance to use the equipment. It's far more fun, it's far more educational and let's face it, it's also more rewarding for the party hosts as the kids are interacting with the equipment rather than being bored!
We know that a great science presentation at a children's party is not just about the presenter arriving and showing off his or her 'bag-o-tricks'. Our parties have been designed over several years by experienced science teachers and communicators to make sure that the balance is right; cool experiments that they don't normally see at school and all the fun stuff that you would see at a science toy store!

Content
We bring over 20 hands on party experiments to every party! Your home becomes a science lab with gigantic bubbles, gooey slime, cool science demo's and awesome hands on experiments that they can use themselves! We even bring a vortex smoke ring generator that shoots vortex rings of fog across your yard!
There's so much to do:
- Make gigantic bubbles, make gooey slime and expand a mega hoberman sphere
- See how a chair of nails works and observe colour changing chemical reactions
- Identify x-rays, shoot vortex fog rings and warp your mind with illusions
- Launch film canister rockets and hear a thunder drum and elephant tube roar
- Float images in mid-air, spin gyroscopes and work out our 'magic' boxes
- Create strange vibrations, fill a 7ft bag in one breath and pop our dropper poppers
- Learn about kinetic energy with chatter rings, hopping frogs and mini-tornadoes
- Find out about balance, use magnetic rail spinners andhandle magnifiers
- Stack magnetic shapes, see rainbows surrounding light sources and much more!



PLUS other weird science demonstrations you just don't see in class!
PLUS we can make instant ice-cream for children aged 7 years and older as an extra!
PLUS we provide a free science gift for the birthday child. (Click here for FAQ's)
PLUS includes access to free science experiments emailed every month!
The idea is that we bring out more than they possibly can do in the time given!
All experiments are age appropriate and have been tested over many, many parties to ensure that they work for all age groups and abilities.
It's really fun - why wouldn't it be when you've got so much to do!
