"Brunner Labs" birthday party was Amazing 👏 🤩

We booked the Wonder Bus for our science-themed birthday party for my 6 and 10 year old and we were SO impressed! Jason was so much fun to work with from start to finish. We wanted to theme our party and our kiddos love Crunch Labs so he chatted with us about our decor/invites and we met to brainstorm about the best experiments for both age groups. As soon as the science portion of the party started, I knew we made the right decision. He got the kids ready to focus by playing a really fun hula hoop game to discuss the different types of matter. All the kids were laughing before they even started the experiments! Once we began, I was super impressed with Jason's ability to combine learning and having fun. They made little cars with balloons and raced them, made and played with some oobleck and constructed sensory lava lamp bottles. I was a little worried about different age groups and certain kids with sensory needs for accommodation, but he did such a phenomenal job of meeting the kids where they were at and keeping everyone engaged. It was truly such a fun experience that I know both my kids and all their friends will remember.
I would book the Wonder Bus again in a minute! If anyone wants a super fun birthday experience, but doesn't know how (or have the desire) to make it happen, Jason's your guy!

What to expect

Each program can be tailored to your specific needs. Things vary greatly based on audience/theme/venue.

Generally, a program runs an hour with a mix of demonstration, interaction, exploration, and silliness. From running experiments at your table, to game show elements, to build competitions!

About

I was a 3-6 grade STEM teacher for 12 years and realized how many people were missing out on fun science demos and activities so I am bringing STEM to them!

Additional booking notes

As a former teacher, I am nothing if not flexible!
I can use as much or as little tech as the theme/space allows.

Influences and inspiration

While I provided programming for all ages, my main influence when creating the WonderBus was when Bill Nye started doing his show for grown-ups. I am hoping for a Miss Frizzle, Bill Nye, MacGyver energy!
