    More about Bubbles and Balloons Workshops

    Where Science Meets Play!

    Discover the Magic of Bubbles and Balloons

    Bring science to life with Wild Science's Bubble Science Workshop. Children explore bubbles, balloons, and exciting experiments through hands-on activities that make learning fun. For even more creative learning, try our Bubbles and Balloons Workshop, which introduces kids to a world of fun discoveries.

    Our experienced Nutty Professors guide every session. Children investigate how bubbles form, why balloons inflate, and how simple science creates amazing results.

    Our Bubbles and Balloons Workshop is perfect for schools, libraries, birthday parties, holiday clubs, and community events across the UK.

    What Happens During the Bubble Science Workshop?

    What is the Bubble Journey?

    Hold your breath! We’re about to unravel the mystery of bubbles. Kids learn what bubbles are and how they form. It’s like peeking behind the curtain of a magical show. Spoiler alert: bubbles have secrets, and we’re about to spill them!

    Bubble Experiments for Kids

    Children discover:

    • What bubbles are made from
    • How bubbles form
    • Why bubbles are round
    • Why some bubbles last longer than others
    • How surface tension works

    They then create their own bubble mixture and experiment with different bubble sizes.

    How Do Children Experience Bubble Touch and Pop?

    Imagine tiny fingers reaching out to touch delicate bubbles. Will they pop? Or will they defy gravity and float?

    Our young scientists experiment with bubble-touching bravery. Some bubbles vanish, while others linger. It’s a fun way to explore surface tension while enjoying hands-on learning.

    What are DIY Bubble Bottles?

    Get ready for bubble magic!

    Children create their own bubble solution. They mix, stir, and watch as their bottles transform into bubble factories. These portable bubbles are ready to accompany them home—a pocketful of joy!

    What Happens During the Balloon Experiments?

    Which Three Inflation Tricks Do We Use?

    Hold onto your hats (or balloons)! We explore three exciting ways to inflate balloons.

    • Water - Can water alone puff up a balloon? Let's find out!
    • Water and Alka-Seltzer - Watch a fizzy reaction inflate the balloon.
    • Baking Soda and Vinegar - Discover how chemistry creates enough gas to fill a balloon.

    How Does the Balloon-on-a-Skewer Trick Work?

    Picture this: a balloon pierced with a skewer. Impossible, right?

    Our young scientists use what they learned during the bubble experiments to understand this amazing demonstration. It’s science that looks like magic and always surprises the audience.

    Why Hands-On STEM Learning Matters

    Science isn't just about facts. It's about asking questions, making discoveries, and learning through experience.

    Why do bubbles shimmer? How does a balloon stretch without bursting? Our little scientists investigate these questions through exciting experiments.

    Hands-On Play

    Forget textbooks. Children learn best when they can explore for themselves.

    Our workshop encourages creativity, curiosity, teamwork, and problem-solving through fun, practical activities.

    Bubbleologists and Balloon Wizards! That's what your little ones will become after this exciting workshop. Whether they love bubbles, balloons, or science, they'll leave smiling and inspired.

    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 were delighted to have both Shannon & Amy attend our free family event at Crystal Peaks shopping centre this Friday.
    Their communication on the run-up to our event was great. On the day, the head office called us to check everything was ready & the hosts arrived in plenty of time.
    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.
    We can't recommend Wild Science enough.
    Thank you for making our day so good.

    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!

    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.

    An unforgettable experience. Your kids will love it! We had Susie in Edinburgh, she was exceptionally good - with the animals and the kids, and the grown-ups too! We all had an amazing time. I highly recommend booking Susie for Wild Science if you're in Scotland. So many memories made!

    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.

    Attended a group with my husband & kids. Youngest being 1 & it was incredible. Different kinds of animals, was able to hold what we could & pet the rest.
    Thanks again for the incredible experience! Fidget was amazing & we are now thinking if adding ferrets to the family. I hope fidget enjoys his chicken 🐔

    The lady was going to name a cockroach 🪳 after my son Leon 🤣 poor kid was peed and pooped on, it was sooo funny! Everyone had such a great time. Thanks for entertaining us. 😆

    The management committee would like to thank Susie and trainee Amy for bringing the animals to the Community Centres Summer Fair. Once again, they were very popular with adults and children. Those attending said they enjoyed meeting and learning about the animals up close.

    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.

    We have used Wild Science for 3 years at our school. Each year they deliver wonderful sessions to Nursery and Reception children. We have never had any issues and would recommend them to everyone. The children love the experience and the animals and staff are amazing!

    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!!!

    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!
