Who this list is for
This list is for hosts planning a science-themed birthday party for ten school-age kids. The activities use safe, familiar materials and assume adult supervision throughout the event.
How to use this list

Cover tables with disposable tablecloths to protect surfaces. Sort out materials for each experiment to speed up transitions.
Common mistakes
Don’t forget enough lab coats or shirts—kids get excited and messy. Avoid running short on clear plastic cups or balloons, as these are used in multiple experiments.
