The Favourites
Here are the most popular experiments. Choose two or tree of the following options, guaranteed to please even the most demanding young scientists.
SLIME
Parents may have mixed feelings about this polymer feast, but kids just ADORE it. They will make it, choose its colour and take it home. Rejoice, parents, rejoice!
Please, note, some party and event venues have banned slime. If not sure, check with the venue before booking this experiment.
SOAPS
Who wants to take home small super heroes that kill germs? YOU? Children will learn all about this powerful combination of fatty acids and alkalis and choose their shape, colour and scent.
BALLOON RACE
Let’s investigate the strange case of the balloons that inflate themselves. They can! Don’t you believe it? GOOD! We are going to prove it to you and when we have, we will let the balloons go and watch as they whizz around the room.
INSTANT SNOW
Let’s conjure up snow from nowhere and let’s find out what turns powder in fluffy snow – like flakes. Here’s another popular project to take home!
WIZARD´S/WITCHES’ BREW
What happens when (weak) acids meet alkalis? Crazy, noisy, foamy, colourful things happen! This is an oober popular experiment guaranteed to make a lasting impression.
LAVA LAMPS
Another popular experiment packed with ‘WOW.’ We cannot take credit for it though, it’s all down to density with a little help from carbon dioxide. The birthday child will take home all the lava lamps we make together.
HEAT & FOAM FOUNTAIN
(AKA ELEPHANT TOOTHPASTE)
No toothpaste, in fact this chemical reaction is so powerful (and smelly) that it spews out heat. Oh, the wonders of hydrogen peroxide catalysis! Fear not, adults, fun it may be, but this experiment is also safe for your children!
DRY ICE
Simply sublime and simply sublimation. This is an experiment that never fails to excite and enthuse our young scientists with its fog, smoke, large and small bubbles and the inevitable pleads: “Can I touch this ice, please?” (NO!!)
Please, note that this experiment entails a £55 to £68 extra charge for the dry ice.
Please, note, some party and event venues request previous notice of this experiment.
UNDER WATER FIRE
(OUTDOORS ONLY)
Light a fire that will go on under water and unleash a gale of excited shrieks with this experiments that require outdoors space.

TERMS & CONDITIONS:
Thank you for choosing our services! We know how important a birthday party is to children. We will give 100% of our creativity and professionalism to help you make it a very special occasion. In order to prepare for the birthday party, we ask for:
- A £100 deposit to confirm the booking
- Your choice of experiments no later than one week before the party
- The final number of attendees confirmed no later than the Monday before the party (no mean feat, we know!) – we know it’s a tall order but we need more than one tutor for parties with more than 15 attendees
- The bill for the difference to be settled by the day before the party
- We always do our utmost to engage your young scientists. Please, note, however, that parties involving very young children may result in some of them getting distracted or in abandoning the experiment. We will encourage them to come back but we won't insist. We will of course complete the experiments with those who stay.
- Adults; you are welcome to join us, if you wish!
- Any special request? That’s what we are here for. Let’s talk about it as soon as possible. Don’t be shy, we’ll do our utmost to accommodate you.
