Soar to new heights of understanding! Have you ever seen a rocket fly 250 feet? Well, with this introduction to rocket science you will! Children will learn about rocket design, the three stages of flight, and launching. (Rocket launches are weather/space dependent.)
Cotton Candy Making
$79.95
Believe it - there is chemistry behind cotton candy: namely, how heat is transferred causing sugar to change from a solid to a liquid state and back again. We will explain these phenomena and of course make sure that there is enough of the yummy stuff to go around.
Dry Ice Bubbling Potion
$59.95
Have you ever seen a coin dance? Utensils sizzle? The frigidly fun activities help children to understand a series of hot topics such as the three states of matter, the temperatures of dry ice (-79c), and sublimation. It doesn't get any cooler than this!

Create a cool bracelet or awesome keychain with our UV beads. Watch as it instantly changes into a rainbow of color every time it’s exposed to daylight.

Excellent experience! Party guests texted the next day to say what a great time the children had. Even the adults enjoyed the show! (The Mad Scientist) was so much fun, and delivered a truly educational event! Thanks so much for a great party!
Donna

My son's Kindergarten class had a Mad Science birthday party and the kids were mesmerized. A lot of fun and learning. The scientist did a great job keeping kids interest(ed) throughout and made for an enjoyable birthday at our house even with a small wobbly table we provided (sorry). Great job!

FAQ
When do I pay?
We require a $200 non-refundable deposit to book your party. At the end of your party, you will pay the Mad Scientist for the remaining balance of the party. You can pay with cash, check, or provide authorization to charge the credit card we have on file.
+Do I need to provide anything?
We need a folding table or card table so the Mad Scientist can setup the equipment. If needed, we can bring a table for an additional $15.00. We will also need access to water for set-up and clean-up and access to electricity. Please let us know if your party location does not have either of these.
+How far in advance do I need to book my party?
Our party schedule fills up quickly. We suggest you book well in advance to get the date and time you want. Generally, at least 3 weeks in advance is recommended.
