Spring is coming and it’s the perfect time to do something outdoors for a birthday party!

Have a boy? He will love this Mad Science party I threw for my son!

We had a blast making snow, green slime, decorating our own cupcakes and creating explosions!

Exploding Diet Coke was by far the hit of the party!! You’ll need a roll or box of Mentos and a 2-liter bottle of diet soda. Just drop the mentos in the Diet Coke, run and watch it erupt!

Our first attempt was hilarious. Several moms got blasted with Diet Coke!!!  (I made them do the launches so I could video… when really I just didn’t want to get messy! hee!)
