Party Recap
My son is really into anything science related, so we decided to have a science themed birthday party! We had lab coats, badges and clipboards for all the kids to give it a more realistic feel. We also did several experiments throughout the party, and at the end of the party, the kids take home some of their experiments.
Party Highlights
-
Best Dressed
All the kids looked fantastic in their lab coats and badges!
-
Desserts
Chocolate cupcakes and chocolate cake.
-
Activities / Games
Lots of science experiments! We made snow (using a kit from Micheals), volcanoes (that we made explode using baking soda and vinegar), slime, and pudding creations. The last experiment was geysers; by adding Mentos candy to Coke.
-
Party Favors
Test tubes filled with Skittles candy as well as the various experiments (slime and snow) and their lab coats, badges & clipboards.
-
Best Moment
Seeing the looks on the kids faces when the geysers were going off! Priceless!
-
What People Ate
Pretzels & tortilla chips in giant beakers, petri dish jello with gummy worms, beaker shaped pb&j sandwiches.
-
What People Drank
Mini sodas for the kids & water for the adults.
-
Funniest Moment
My son's reaction to his geyser going; he got so excited he stumbled backward & actually fell on the ground! ;o)

Party Favors
At the last minute, we had a cake situation and I had to have some cupcake picks. I ordered from The Celebration Shoppe the night before the party, and they had them to me the next morning! They went along great with the bottle wrappers I had already ordered!http://www.thecelebrationshoppe.com/
