Mad Scientist Party :: Collin's 6th Birthday

With Collin's LOVE of science, it only made sense to have a 

Mad Scientist Party!!

and party we did!

Collin had a blast experimenting and creating messes with a few of his good friends.

I have never seen so much energy as these boys had.

They were craaazy!

Thanks to Steve Spangler Science and Pinterest, this party was a success!!

the party invitations were a free download from Living Locorto

Collin LOVED these test tubes...he has plans for many more experiments with them in the future!!

Experiment #1

Make Snow

Just by adding water we made fluffy artificial snow in seconds

So cool!

Experiment #2

Soda Pop Geyser

Collin thought this was awesome!!

With the Geyser Tube it was super easy and worked great. 

I couldn't believe how high it went!

A week or so after his party Logan was asking Collin if he had ever seen a geyer before.  

Collin responded "yes Daddy! and you have too! in our front yard!"

I thought that was pretty cute.

Experiment #4 

Blow Up a Balloon

Using a water bottle, some vinegar, and baking soda we were able to blow up balloons

I think this was one of my favorite experiments.

Experiment #5

Worms

Using the inta-worm kit the boys made worms.

They had a blast with the the wet slippery little guys.

Next we took a break and opened presents

Collin was spoiled with so many great presents.

I love the way his cute little friends all huddled around him to see what he got.

Experiment #6

Decorate a Cupcake

I had the kids all decorate their own cupcake.

They got to choose their frosting and what ever candy they wanted to top it with

It was a hit!!

 Experiment #7

Color Mixing

I think this was the biggest hit among the boys...

they asked to do it over and over again.

Such a cool effect with just a little milk, food coloring, a q-tip, and some dish soap

Fun, Fun!!

After that I was worn out!!

But it was worth it to see this boys smile!

Happy 6th Birthday Collin!
