Frequently Asked Questions


Are any of your experiments dangerous?
All experiments are perfected and controlled. There is no danger in anything you will see!!

What age range are your parties for?
Generally grade school is the best, but adults and teens will definitely want to stay for the show!

Can you 'custom make' parties?
Sure! With the "Power Bonus" option you can blend the climax of another party with the party you choose! Special holiday parties like Halloween and Christmas/Winter Wonderland are also available.

Will you travel to my house for the party?
Absolutely! Travel to anywhere in the greater Sacramento area is included in price, and further locations may require a small mileage fee.

How much notice do you need to do a party?
3-4 weeks in advance is a good rule of thumb to make sure you get the time slot you want. However, you can always call the day before and hope to get lucky! The Science Wizard is always available by phone and email.

What's the best party you have?
They are ALL great!! Each show is guaranteed to give your child a fantastic birthday to remember! Which party you choose will depend on what topic you're interested in and what the logistics are for your party. Will you be outside or inside? Day or night? Will we have access to electricity? Whatever your needs, the Science Wizard has the perfect party for your situation!

What do you need from me, the party host?
Nothing. Well, almost nothing. Just access to water/sink and a trash can for cleanup. The Science Wizard is entirely self-contained, except in special situations. For instance, if you want the Unearthly Forces or Castle Dungeon party, you need a dark room and electricity. If you have children under 5 years old, these children will need to have a parent with them. This is for their safety and to ensure they can do the activity at the close of the show.

My child is older than 12… will your show be appropriate for their party?
Well, some teenagers aren't into having an entertainer come put on a show at their birthday party. On the other hand, Jr. Highers love the school assemblies and classroom laboratories put on by The Science Wizard! If your child really enjoys science and would like an entertainer, email for an "off the menu" party.
