After School Programs
Magnetic Memory came to present the Mad Science program for the West Regional Library in Cary. Her no-nonsense demeanor showed the children what behaviors were expected from them. With 153 in attendance, I was impressed by her ability to keep the crowd under control while still remaining positive. MM very clearly explained which experiments could be performed at home and whether those should be done outside or inside. She covered a wide range of chemistry and physics subjects while using language that was accessible to all age participants. This was a fun, educational show.

Our Summer Reading Program at the library was based on a science theme and we'd previously heard about MadScience through a worker in Raleigh Parks & Recreation. We're very glad we took the recommendation.
The presenter, Magnetic Memory, was wonderful and very professional. She arrived on time and had everything set up and ready in time for our event. She kept the children's interest the entire hour of the performance - which was a challenge with a group of approximately 130 children with age ranges from 2 to 15! Her interaction with our group of children was entertaining and we appreciated her inclusion of so many volunteers.
More importantly, after the program every parent that came by the library let us know they had just as great a time as their children!

The program was exactly what we expected: educational, engaging, and fascinating! We scheduled the spin, pop, boom program for the Public library's summer reading program kick-off. The children all enjoyed sharing what they already knew and learning some new things too. Thank you Mad Scientist and Magnetic Memory!!

Mad Science did a wonderful job at our Summer Reading Kick-Offs! Magnetic Memory was full of energy and presented a terrific program, keeping kids of all ages entertained and fascinated. This was a wonderful experience, and we would not hesitate to use Mad Science again in the future.

Birthday Parties
This was a great party. We hosted my sons 7th birthday party at the Apex Community center The science topics flowed in a cohesive manner. The kids were engaged and excited. The instructor had a great interaction with the kids and kept their attention. We added the electricity lab to the end. The Mad Science staff was easy to work with and communicated with me regularly. My only slight disappointment was that our scientist arrived 20 minutes after her set up time and the kids were a bit wild waiting for her to set up. But once she got started things went awesome.

Workshops
We requested and were able to schedule a last minute weather workshop for our 5th graders. They loved the neat experiments and were excited to know the information that was reviewed from the year's Science weather unit. They really loved the "snow" they were able to take home with them.
The instructor was very knowledgeable and patient. She kept the students engaged and entertained. The pace was brisk but questions were answered. There were many oooohs and aaahs. Great program - thank you!

Birthday Parties
Sarah Sparkles arrived on time and provided a wonderful show for my son's 6 year old birthday party held
outside at the local park shelter. She was professional, respectful, and entertaining!
The kids (and parents) enjoyed the hour and the two finales we chose were a huge hit with the group (rocket and bubbles). Definitely recommend Mad Science for a fun and educational experience!
