We will watch experiments grow before our very eyes and discover how to make water defy gravity. Make your own potion as you test the reactivity of ordinary household items. Facilitation of Party  The hosting adult will facilitate the party. A Science Factory Educator will facilitate the hands-on science activity.Decorations You may decorate the room to your heart's desire with freestanding decorations, tablecloths, banners, streamers, balloons and signs. The party host is responsible for setting up and taking down decorations, as well as disposing of all garbage. Food and Drinks All food and drink must stay in the birthday party room. Room Capacity The Birthday Party Room can seat up to 24 guests at tables. A party with total attendance (kids & adults) larger than that size may find that they are cramped for space. Museum Rules The party host should make arrangements to have adequate adult supervision on hand. Party guests must be supervised at all times, except during the hands-on science activity. There must be at least one adult in attendance for every ten children. Access to the Birthday Party Room You may enter the party room before your scheduled party time ONLY if the room will not be in use at that time & prior arrangements have been made with the Director of Education. Please promptly vacate the party room at the end of your scheduled time. Any late departures will be assessed a $25 fee. Please note: Your two-hour room rental period includes set-up time, party time and clean-up time. The next party group will be scheduled to arrive at the same time you are scheduled to vacate the room, so we ask that you follow our schedule closely to ensure an easy transition between parties. Housekeeping Because of our tight birthday schedule, we ask that you please leave the birthday party room in the same condition as you find it upon entry. * remove or discard all leftover food · wipe down table and counter surfaces · return folding chairs to storage space · dispose of your trash & recycling in the proper receptacles provided in the room You will be assessed a $50 fee for not properly cleaning the room of trash and decorations. To ensure that no cleaning fee will be assessed, please check in with the birthday party supervisor for your party prior to leaving.
