Science Experiment Birthday Party | Part II
This is the MOST fun science birthday party we hosted for a boy birthday party. Hosting a Mad Science birthday party science-themed birthday party where all the kiddos participated in cool science experiments is super easy. A Science Experiment Party is a unique and fun birthday party for all the nerd-loving science kids.
SCIENCE EXPERIMENT BIRTHDAY PARTY
THE EXPERIMENTS
The boys had so much fun conducting experiments. They were all the perfect little scientists! These experiments were listed out at the lab station for all the boys when they arrived. After each boy suited up in a lab coat and safety goggles, they were set to get going with the experiments. The experiments moved along quite quickly and they boys had a BLAST!!
Color Symphony Experiment
First up was Color Symphony then on to Instant Snow. Color Symphony experiment was simply milk, food coloring and dish soap. Watch the reaction.
Instant Snow Experiment
Instant Snow was just that, Instant Snow! Very fun to play with!
Super Slime Experiment
Next up was Super Slime, which was a lot of fun and caused many laughs. I ordered the slime and had each cup measured out sitting on trays waiting to be carried in to the "Lab". I used small plastic cups purchased at the local grocery store.
Instant Worms Experiment
Instant Worms was the next experiment and this was as enjoyable as the previous. I think anything boys can squeeze and be grossed out about is a hit.
Elephant's Toothpaste Experiment
The BIG indoor experiment was Elephant's Toothpaste or Fantastic Foamy Mountain . This was an amazing experiment for the boys! I just purchased enough metal tins for each boy (at the dollar store), empty plastic liter bottles, yeast, funnels, 20-volume hydrogen peroxide liquid (found at beauty supply store), dish soap and food coloring.
The yeast acts as a catalyst, which made the peroxide release the oxygen faster The reaction created foam that spills out of the bottle and pools in the pan. After a minute or so, it begins to come out in a moving stream that looks like toothpaste being squeezed out of a tube. The bottle was warm to the touch as this is an exothermic reaction. The boys played with the foam afterwards as it was just soap and water with oxygen bubbles.
Mentos Diet Coke Geyser Experiment
The last experiment was conducted OUTSIDE! Mentos Diet Coke Geyser! A blast this was! Everyone was running, including me, mainly because I didn't want my camera soaked with Diet Coke!
I purchased enough Diet Coke liter bottles for each child and each child also received Geyser Tube. Everyone pulled their trigger and took off. The Mentos dropped and the soda shot in the air! The boys were all running around drinking the remaining Diet Coke in their bottles! Just in time to hand them all off to their parents ~ hyped up on sugar!
