Science Party Set Up

This Science Party set up is so simple, yet so amazing as well. And the best part? Rhea did most of this herself.

The backdrop was made using her very own Cricut machine – which allows you to cut out all types of materials. Once you dive down this path, you life will be forever changed. There is so much fun that comes with a Cricut.

The light up letters which feature in the middle of the table are just from Kmart, and you can get the caution tape from a number of places, including Discount Party Supplies.

Science Party Food

You can have plenty of fun when it comes to science party food, all you need is a bit of imagination, and a lot of creativity. Rhea shows some her amazing creations for her son’s birthday. You will find:

M&Ms in test tubes
Syringe cupcakes
Beaker fairy bread
Gummy worm petri dishes

All these ideas are so clever and so easy to put together as well. The Erlenmeyer flasks that have been used as lolly jars are from Mad About Science.

Science Experiments

Of course, part of the fun of a science party is having fun with some experiments. The kids safety goggles are from Amazon Science Experiments. The empty coke bottles, balloons and other items are just from Chemist Warehouse.

Science Cake

This amazing cake is so simple, yet effective. It’s just a regular square cake that has been covered in icing and sprinkles, topped with a beaker full of lollies! What more could anyone want.

Party Favours

Let’s not forget the party favours.

The pop its (or molecules for this science party) are just from a local shop. But there are plenty of places you can find them online, including the Discount Toy Store.

The bubble wands are from Kmart. You can also find bubble wands online here.
