3 months agoGreat birthday party for a 7 year old boy! The staff had everything ready on time and provided a set of fun activities, ending with a freeze dance competition. Fun for the kids, low stress for parents! -- highly recommend.

9 months agoI don't have the words to describe how inclusive we felt here with Professor Saffron. Professor Saffron talked to my son privately at a birthday party he attended last weekend and encouraged, but never forced participation. She even offered to give him a coloring sheet in a private space to calm his sensory overload (from noise) down. I love how the science area is enclosed and yet the younger siblings (and parents) could see in, yet still be entertained with magnatiles and other stem toys. I can't wait to take my kids back but really, Professor Saffron would be our main reason to want to return. Thank you thank you for being mindful and inclusive and making him feel special instead of ashamed. Also, the take home science kits are awesome! He still gets to do all the experiments when he's ready!

6 years agoGreat staff, creative play with science oriented learning. Efficient, well organized - good place for kid's parties. Convenient to grab food from Whole Foods while kids are playing. Parking available is shared garage with Whole Foods. Camp sessions are also engaging and well done.

2 years agoWe had our kid birthday party there and it was very disappointing. They did not make it festive, people arrived and they were rushing them already reminding them that they need to pick their kids up punctually. They rushed us out and were treating us to charge us more money if we stayed even two minutes longer when kids where still using the bathrooms. It was too expensive for what they offer, no music, and after the activity the host was not around at all so no one helped. Activity was not great for sensitive to texture kids and a little boring for older kids and they did not offer any alternative.

5 years agoThe team at the Kids' Science Labs new location at Roscoe Village did a marvelous job creating a fun and creative party for my son's 6th birthday! Each staff member was very professional and attentive to our needs and desires for the party. The space was very clean, spacious and bright. The kids could play together very nicely while guests were arriving, and they loved participating in the slime experiments skillfully presented by Shegan, causing a lot of laughs and giggles! It was also very convenient to be next to Mariano's to get soft drinks and snacks. And the parents could enjoy easy parking and some free time while kids were busy at the party. Thank you again for a fun and well organized party!
