    More about Science of Slime

    Wild Science can't wait to create slime with you! Discover the science behind slime's properties while making your own unique version—whether you want it to be super stretchy or delightfully runny!

    Our Nutty professors will lead participants in creating their own slime with various ingredients. During the workshop, students will explore the science of slime, focusing on the characteristics of polymers and how they interact with various substances.

    Slime Making

    Dive in and create your very own slime just the way you like it! Pick a colour, sprinkle in some glitter, and adjust the thickness to your liking, whether you want it thick or runny. See how far you can stretch and find out if thick or runny slime stretches further. Once you've had a blast crafting your slime, take it home to keep the fun going and proudly display your creation!

    Polymer Game

    Polymers are molecules that connect to form long chains. When you make slime, these molecules intertwine or bond with each other, resulting in a chain or polymer structure.

    We’ve devised an engaging method for demonstrating the science of slime. This method encourages you to get up and move while making it a playful experience.

    Our Slime Workshop is crafted to be welcoming and enjoyable for individuals of all ages and abilities. These workshops offer a lively and hands-on learning experience that encourages creativity, science skills and sensory engagement.

    What age range is Science of Slime for?
    There is no age limit for making slime. However, we recommend children over the age of 3, as conducting the experiment could be difficult for younger children.

    Are there any safety precautions during Slime making?
    Yes! We use non-toxic products and supervise closely. Before the session, we check for any children with allergies.

    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. The animal expert Harriet was absolutely fantastic - super knowledgable, engaging and clearly passionate about every animal she introduced us to. The visit included a snake, rabbit, gerbil, snail and more - all of which were super theraputic! It was amazing to see how quickly the team relaxed and connected with the animals. 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 🐔

    Animal visit (Summer Fair Gilmerton Community Centre)
    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.

    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.

    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!
