If you’re after a unique theme that lends itself to so much fun, a science party is definitely the way to go! You can really go all out with the decorations and outfits, while planning plenty of fun experiments for the big day to keep all the guests busy. One mum, Jenna, shows us how she pulled together her son’s 7th science party, including all their amazing science party experiments.
Science Party Set Up
The backdrop is from Ali Express, then I made the beaker image and printed it at officeworks and stuck it to corflute.
You can shop a similar backdrop here>>>
The ‘bubbles’ are clear balloons. You can find these here>>>
Across the table you will see lots of beakers of all shapes and sizes, which are a great and simple addition! You can fill them with lollies, chips, drinks, etc.
Science Party Food
The cookies are from Simply Sweet Bites.
For the drinks, I made a Galaxy Colour Changing Slushie, which you can see here.
You will also find all the party basics here, including chips, lollies, coloured popcorn, choc chip cookies and plenty more.
Of course, the fabulous cake is at the back of the table. A great beaker cake sitting beneath the cutout above it!
Science Party Games
The aprons themselves are from Kids Aprons on eBay and I personalised them with my Silhouette. The kids also got personalised ID Lanyards (made from a template at Rays of Bliss) and safety Goggles.
The kids did Elephant Toothpaste, Slime, and DIY lava lamps. All easily found online.
I do recommend testing the elephant toothpaste to get the ratios and ingredients right. We did need to tweak it a little to make it faster for the kids.
The slime, I just got heaps of colours, glitter, beads and polymer clay mix ins and the kids went crazy. They loved it! I used these containers from Kmart for the kids to take it home in.
