Deuterium Daval was fantastic today, he kept the kids engaged throughout with experiments and facts. He was very friendly and positive, even with the cheeky questions! All the kids loved it.

We had such a fantastic experience with…

We had such a fantastic experience with Sublime Science for my daughter’s 6th birthday party. Michaela and Michelle were brilliant from start to finish, and in particular, Michaela was incredible at keeping our wonderfully rambunctious group of 17 five- and six-year-olds entertained, focused and completely engaged.

What we loved most was that the session wasn’t just about the fun — they managed to introduce genuine scientific knowledge in a way that was exciting, age-appropriate and easy for the children to understand, without ever losing their attention. The slime-making was a huge hit, and we were genuinely impressed by how calm and well-organised it was, even with 17 children all making slime at the same time!

The whole experience was completely stress-free for us as parents. Everything was incredibly well organised, the quality was fantastic and it was worth every penny. All of the parents commented afterwards on how wonderful the party was and how different it was from the usual children’s party — it was such a fun and memorable experience for the children.

We honestly couldn’t recommend Sublime Science highly enough. A brilliant, engaging and genuinely special party experience!

Absolutely recommend!!

Finlay and Numaan were absolutely fantastic at presenting to 32 4 and 5 year olds! They kept them all really engaged and knew exactly how to pitch the science experiments to them so it kept them interested. As a result of their amazing work, I’ve have numerous parents message me saying that their child now loves science and they’ve been continuing to do experiments at home - totally inspired!!
Sublime science were easily contactable, very clear, concise and easy to talk to throughout the whole process. Easily the best and most fun party we’ve done for our child to date!

Great Party - Would Highly Recommend

Recently had Professor Jess at my son & friend joint 6th birthday party. jess was lovely, very professional and the children loved her.

Jess explained the science experiments really well so the children could understand and ask questions.

5th birthday party

We booked Sublime Science for our daughter’s 5th birthday party, and Professor Jess was absolutely fabulous from start to finish.

She was so engaging with the children and really thoughtful about the different personalities in the group. She managed to get everyone involved while making sure the quieter children felt comfortable too, which was so lovely to see.

The whole experience was a huge success. The kids absolutely loved it and so did the parents!

We couldn’t have asked for a better entertainer and would 100% recommend Sublime Science, especially Professor Jess. She was fantastic!

We're thrilled to hear Jurassic James was utterly fantastic and that the children had the best time — with several saying it was the best party they've ever been to!

Thanks so much for sharing this with us!

Amazing

Our 7 year old had an amazing party thanks to Toxic Tolga! He really engaged with all the children, had them listening and following instructions but also shrieking with glee and laughing. And he made the birthday girl feel like a VIP starting off first with all testing which she loved. It was really engaging and entertaining would highly recommend to anyone! :)

Disappointing exprience

Disappointing experience despite a good concept

We had a Sublime Science party yesterday, and while the idea behind it is excellent, the actual delivery was very disappointing.

I don’t like to tarnish small businesses, and I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel I have to be honest about our experience.

The entertainer simply lacked the enthusiasm, energy and even the voice needed for a children’s party. She used a handheld microphone throughout, but it was still difficult to hear her clearly.

She carried out a number of experiments, but there was very little explanation of what she was doing or why it was interesting. The children watched for a short while, but without much interaction or storytelling, most of them quickly lost interest. Within about 30 minutes, the majority of the children were wandering off, chatting among themselves, and running around the room entertaining themselves.

The format also didn’t work well for a larger group. Giving each child an individual turn meant that the other children spent a lot of time waiting, which led to boredom and disengagement.

Considering the package i got which was platinum spent £380, I expected a much more professional and engaging experience.

It’s a real shame because the concept has a lot of potential, but based on our experience I wouldn’t recommend it, particularly for larger parties where keeping the children engaged is so important.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this feedback. We're very sorry the party didn't feel as fun and engaging as you'd hoped.

Sublime Science parties are usually met with huge excitement – our presenters are known for their energy, clarity and ability to get every child involved, and our Platinum package has been a big hit at thousands of birthday parties over the years, so we’re very disappointed to hear that this session didn't reflect the brilliant standard we're known for.

Your comments have been passed directly to our training team, and we’ll use them to make sure every party delivers the same wow factor our families have come to expect from us.

Thank you again for your honesty, it helps us keep improving.

Jurassic James was super with the kids

Jurassic James was super with the kids. To keep 16 5 years olds entertained for an hour is no mean feat. They loved the experiments and so did the adults! Would definitely recommend!

A truly fantastic party

A truly fantastic party. Jurassic James was amazing, keeping 15 hyped 6 year olds completely transfixed with non stop science fun. The experiments were exciting, explained perfectly at the exact right pitch for the age, with all of the children getting a chance to be involved throughout. It inspired a lot of the children to spend the rest of the day doing more experiments at home, including my boys. My son said it was the best party he'd ever had-I would 100% recommend and thank you James!

Amazing Entertainer!

We booked Sublime Science Platinum package for my child's 8th birthday party, approx 25 to 30 kids. There were also siblings among the audience from 5 yo to 10 yo. Marvellous Martin was quite a hit, he kept kids engaged and entertained for 5 to 10 mins while we waited for rest of guests to arrive. They were occupied throughout with sherbets, making slimes, experiments with sounds and smokes, and the kids absolutely loved the Wacky Rockets. "Marvellous Martin was a hit", and "I want to be friends with Marvellous Martin" were some of the feedback from the parents. Martin arrived early, set up everything by himself and was well organised. Would highly recommend.

Brilliant joint birthday party

We booked sublime science for a joint 7th birthday party in Surrey. Reece from sublime science did our party and was absolutely fantastic. Kept 20 excitable kids engaged for the whole time. The kids has a great time and we have had lots of compliments from other parents about what a brilliant party it was. Reece arrived about 30 mins before the party began. He was very well organised and ready to go as soon as the kids arrived. Very personable and polite and great with the kids. Thank you!

I booked a children’s party with… sublime science

I booked a children’s party with Sublime Science for my son’s 6th birthday at a cost of £373.

Before booking, I was told that the party bags and magazines would be provided. However, shortly before the party I was informed these were not included.

Following this, the company sent some complimentary items, but unfortunately:

* Several magazines sent were Christmas-themed despite the party being in May
* Replacement magazines promised before the party did not arrive
* A lab coat provided very cheap material (size 10-11yrs) was unsuitable for a 6-year-old

This caused unnecessary stress on the day of the party.

The entertainer herself was pleasant and did complete the session, although there were moments where the children lost engagement during the activities.

I raised my concerns with the company afterwards. While they acknowledged some of the mistakes made regarding the items sent and delivery issues, they declined to offer any refund or compensation.

I appreciate that others may have positive experiences, but unfortunately mine was disappointing overall.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Manpreet – we're glad to hear that your presenter was pleasant and delivered the session in full. Our presenter reported on the day that the children all seemed to have a wonderful time and that you were happy with the party.

We do want to address a couple of points for the benefit of other readers. We did thoroughly investigate your claim that party bags and magazines were promised as part of your booking. After reviewing the booking call and all correspondence, we did not find any record to support this. Your booking was for our Platinum Package, which does not include these items, and your booking confirmation reflected this.

We did however subsequently arrange to send a substantial complimentary package entirely at our own cost as a gesture of goodwill. We’re sorry that some of these free items didn’t meet your expectations.

As a small, family-run business, we always aim to give families a fantastic experience, and we’re sorry that on this occasion the complimentary extras didn’t add to your day in the way we hoped.

We wish your child a very happy birthday.

Fantastic, highly recommend.

My daughter had a Sublime Science party for her 6th birthday and it was incredible. Mel was our scientist and she kept 22 5 and 6 year olds thoroughly entertained and engaged for an hour and a quarter - the parents and siblings couldn't resist watching the rockets and many of the siblings older and younger were attracted to what was happening and sat around watching most of the show. My daughter was kept very much the focus so she felt really special but all of the children were included and had turns at lots of things, not just the slime and the sherbet which were a huge hit. Everyone said as they were leaving that it was a fabulous day and how much fun all the kids had. They all loved that they got to take home their slime and a certificate and my daughter has a lovely certificate that all of her friends signed as a memento of the day. I'd recommend the company to anyone. The booking process was clear, quick and easy, Mel called a few days before to make sure everything was set and we knew everything we needed to and then the day itself went brilliantly. 5 stars very well deserved.
