    More about Kids Birthday Party Entertainment

    Animal and Science Parties

    Wild Science brings kids party entertainment to your home, hall or garden. Our friendly kids party experts arrive with hands-on science experiments or a mini zoo of live animals. You can pick one, or mix both for a lively kids party the whole group enjoys.

    Every session is active, educational and fun. Kids, school friends and adults all join in, so it becomes your child's special day. Our children's party entertainment suits homes, halls and gardens. The birthday child enjoys the party, and you can relax with your guests.

    A kids party starts at 45 minutes. Ask about our party packages when you call 03301131136. Lines are open Monday to Friday 9:00 to 16:30 and Saturday 9:00 to 15:00. You can also ask for a quote to check your date.

    Choose Your Entertainment Packages: Animals, Science or Both

    Our party packages focus on animals, science or a mix of both. These kids party packages suit different ages, groups and rooms. Each of our themed party packages brings lively activities. You can pick themed activities such as slime, bubbles or minibeasts. Tell us the ages when you plan your child's party. Not sure which to pick? Choose "Not sure" on our form, and our team will help.

    Children's Party Entertainment With Science Experiments

    Our science parties turn experiments into hands-on fun activities. Children handle real equipment, watch big reactions and learn why they happen. Ask the birthday child which topic they like best, and we will suggest a fitting kids party. This children's party entertainment suits curious kids of many ages. You can read more about our science birthday parties.

    For a high-energy and messy party, try Fizz Bang Pop. For a wow moment, our Nutty Professor uses dry ice in the States of Matter party. The effect feels like children's magic, but the science is real.

    Creative children can make their own slime, soap or bath bombs. You can read more about slime making and bath bomb making. The Science of Bubbles party is another popular choice. Can't decide? Pick our Science Show Mix.

    Kid's Party Entertainment With Live Animals

    Many children love animals and want to see them up close. At an animal party, our knowledgeable experts host a show about each animal. Guests can gently touch the animals and, where it is safe, hold them.

    We bring invertebrates, mammals, reptiles and amphibians. You can choose a lively open animal session, an animals and facts show or a minibeasts party. Our animal party page explains more.

    What Happens at a Kids Party?

    A kids party follows a simple plan, so you know what to expect from your child's party.

    • Our expert arrives early and sets up in your chosen space.
    • They introduce the session and the topic.
    • Children join in the hands-on experiments or meet the animals.
    • For a craft party, each child makes slime, soap or a bath bomb to take home.
    • The expert answers questions and shares the science or the animal facts.

    A Hassle Free Party for Parents

    Our expert leads every activity from start to finish. You do not need to plan party games or run the session. That keeps the day stress-free, so you can enjoy the kids’ party with your guests. You can add simple party games while guests arrive. Our team keeps the booking stress-free too.

    Child's Party or Adult Birthday: Everyone Joins In

    Our parties welcome guests of all ages, so each kids party becomes a family activity. We have hosted a 22nd and a 31st birthday as well as parties for 3 to 5 year olds. For a tiny tots party, children as young as 1 can join with a grown-up's support. See our children's parties page for more ideas.

    We also support guests with special educational needs. For example, the expert can offer short breaks or a quiet moment with a small animal. Our kids entertainers tailor each session to the ages in your group.

    Expert Tips and Party Planning Advice

    For a child's party at home, we come to you. Choose your home, a rented hall or an outdoor space. Some experiments need an electrical socket or running water, so tell us what is available. A quiet space for the animals helps too, and parking near the door helps our expert unload.

    Please check with your venue before you book, because some venues have rules about animal parties.

    We recommend up to 20 children for a party. A standard session lasts about an hour, and we can extend the time on request. Party length: 2 hours is the maximum we offer.

    Party food, a birthday cake and party bags are not part of our booking. If you like party games and prizes, add them around our kids party session.

    What Do Parents Say About Our Birthday Parties?

    "Ross was absolutely amazing. So patient, kind and knowledgeable of the animals and the slime workshop. We had a party of 20 and with the madness that ensued he was always calm and reassuring for each child if they were apprehensive of holding any animal - big or small. Would 100% book Wild Science again, especially Ross. Thank you for making our animal lovers birthday so special!"

    Jasmine Pierce

    "Thank you Wild Science for such an amazing party! Amy was super professional and had the kids eating out of the palm of her hand. My son absolutely loved the animals she brought and we were so impressed with how she handled the group (of 3-5 year olds) and gave them interesting and fun facts about each animal which kept all the kids interested and engaged. It was so much fun, we would highly recommend it!!!"

    Jason Ewart

    "The animal expert we were lucky enough to have from wild science was excellent. She even managed to keep the kids at a 7 year old birthday party relatively quiet and very interested. Would highly recommend."

    This experience is absolutely perfect for introducing young children to science! It’s amazing for teaching topics like vertebrate classifications or different types of species, even for children as young as 3! Harriet and her animals are wonderful! They are so calm, friendly, and engaging. You can really see how much she cares about both the animals and the children’s learning. Thank you for such a fantastic and educational experience! Highly recommended! 🦎 🐇 🐹

    We had a lot of very excited guests that got to enjoy a range of fascinating creatures throughout the day.
    The team were great with the public & very knowledgeable about their little critters.

    What an incredible experience! Booked for my sister’s 31st birthday, we couldn’t have had a better time! Jess immediately made everyone feel at ease and relaxed, was incredibly attentive to my sister’s energy levels (she has severe M.E.), asking if she wanted to take breaks or lay quietly with a Guinea pig.
    Jess shared her wealth of knowledge with us in a very humour filled way, answering any questions we had. The animals she brought with her were amazing and all seemed incredibly happy and healthy. Such a range of different animals, a lesser tenrec, a tree frog, two Guinea pigs, a tortoise, a scorpion, a giant snail and a python!
    Thank you Jess for such a special birthday treat for my sister, and incredible memories for our whole family to cherish!

    You won’t be disappointed!

    George Brown was booked for our granddaughter's birthday party. He and his wonderful animal friends enthralled everyone there from 2 years old to 70 somethings. George has a wonderful gift for communicating his knowledge and love of the animals he generously shared with us. Book him! You won't be disappointed.

    Wholly recommended the experience with Wild Science. From the telephone call through to the day itself, the team are professional and very communicative. Harriet was amazing with the animals and children. Our birthday girl and friends had such a great time petting the animals (as much or as little as they wanted to). Harriet had some wonderful facts to share and responded so sensitively and helpfully to answer all questions the children had. Thanks so much- it was a delight to have you for our daughter’s birthday party.

    We booked a corporate animal therapy session as part of Mental Health Awareness week, and it was truly loved by everyone. [...] Harriet was absolutely fantastic - super knowledgable, engaging and clearly passionate about every animal she introduced us to. [...] Harriet created such a calm environment that even our more hesitant colleagues were soon happily holding the snake. We can't recommend Wild Science highly enough - if you're looking to boost morale, reduce stress or just do something a little bit different for your team.
