“Hello? Is this thing on? Good! This is Diatom Dave calling… and I need scientists like you!” Birthday during lockdown? Think you can’t have an awesome party? Think again! You can now tune into a personalised, live birthday broadcast from the secret laboratory of Gloucestershire’s Chief Fun Scientist! Featuring exciting demonstrations and interactive experiments, our online science parties encourage your birthday boy or girl and friends to help Diatom Dave gather data by doing brilliant biology, cool chemistry and fantastic physics at home. All experiments can be done with items and ingredients which are easily available, and which you likely have already. Parties lasting 45 minutes for an unlimited number of guests cost just £75, making them great value too! Investigate weird materials, launch little rockets and more, all from the safety of your house! We need willing assistants, and you need an action-packed party – it’s win-win! Dates available now – please contact us for more information and to book. We want to make sure the party is perfect for you and your family so if you are interested in arranging a remote birthday party, please email cheltenham@fun-science.org.uk so that we can come up with the perfect package for you.
