Party Theme Idea: "Mad Science"

Almost every theme imaginable has been used for children’s birthday parties. Whether favorite cartoon characters, animated films, storybook themes or what have you, parents want to make their kid’s birthday party absolutely perfect and unforgettable. But, let’s face it. Those mentioned have been the trend for quite a while now, and perhaps it’s time to try something new, something that lets kids have fun while learning.

You could say that Mad Science Philippines is a pioneer when it comes to revolutionizing science education in the country. Instead of the typical classroom setup where kids listen to lectures on theories and other scientific principles, Mad Science brings that element of going wild with amazing science activities and experiments. A provider of what they call science edutainment (education slash entertainment), it brings that much needed spark to ignite kids’ natural curiosity and love for imaginative learning. They provide workshops to students as a supplement to science education.

Mad Science, a Canadian franchise and already 9 years in the Philippines, primarily visits schools to share their zany and awesome experiments and demonstrations, but parents will be glad to know that they also offer birthday party packages for kids aged 5 to 12 years old. It’s all about fun group activities where kids can interact with each other while learning cool science facts.

Parents can avail of the basic package (a show), but they can also choose to add booths, with upgrades featuring a particular scientific concept or theme. These upgrades include the Rocket Upgrade, laser shows, the Static Station, the Tornado Terminal and more.

No need to worry about the kids’ safety, because the Mad Scientists - around 30 of them (how could you go wrong with names like Lightning Luis, Android Anna and Gravity Gideon?) - are specially trained to perform the experiments while ensuring your kids’ safety. Their program comes with manuals for easy-to-follow instructions.

What’s even better about Mad Science is that kids can get to take home science experiments so the learning doesn’t end at the birthday party.

You can also have customized packages, if you wish. Mad Science has used Transformers, Plants Vs. Zombies (For you PVZ fans, they’ve had experiments for Pea Shooter and Cherry Bomb!), Star Wars and even pixie-themed birthday parties, so there’s still a way to include your creative input as the party planner.

Packages start at P15,000 for the first 20 kids, with an addtional P1,500 for the next 1 to 10 kids thereafter. For an additional 30 kids, you will need to pay another P16,500. It’s best to book a month in advance since their calendar can have as many as 3 to 4 birthday parties in a day. The fees cover consumables and fees for the Mad Scientists, a.k.a. the hosts. All they need is a long table, a power source, a water source and parking space, and you’re set.

Mad Science Summer-iffic Workshops at Forbes Park on AHA!



Says PR consultant, writer and mad scientist Anna Balmonte, alias Android Anna, “We’re not traditional scientists. What we really do is partner with parents and teachers to encourage kids to learn science. More and more parents are veering away from the traditional educational methods. This is a more educational approach. This is a perfect birthday party option.”
