Exactly what the kids want…a science show all about explosions! What better way to get children into science than doing the stuff they want to see! Originally designed to be run at the Powerhouse Museum, this large stage performance gets noisy as we explore the science behind explosions and explain why chemical safety is so important. However, is not just a series of tricks. Our experienced presenter will cover a multitude of concepts, for example: air pressure differentials exothermic vs. endothermic chemical reactions the effect of surface area on reaction rates combustion requirements properties of liquid nitrogen applications of controlled explosions and more All run safely under controlled conditions by experienced & trained science educators. Ideal for sites that want a professional large stage performance. In addition, a show catering up to 240 people is also more economical per child. Excite the kids these holidays to get back into science or celebrate the vacation break with a BANG!

Liquid Nitrogen Show

I liked the interaction with the children, level of control of children and interactive nature of the experiments. The ice cream was exciting for the children. The show was terrific and really maintained the children's attention. They listened so enthusiastically and were really excited by all the experiments. Thanks!

School Comments View All

I just wanted to pass on how much the staff and students really enjoyed it and how perfect it was to launch our science week activities. The students were enthralled, educated and entertained – a perfect trifecta!

-Caulfield Grammar School – Big Science Big Fun

Thanks so much for presenting at our school on Monday. Our students enjoyed the show.

-Greenvale Primary School – Big Science Big Fun

Fizzics Education curated a thoughtful and hands-on experience for the children, incorporating practical, skill-based learning activities and followed by a science presentation at the end of the event involving liquid nitrogen. This was delivered safely and effectively, capturing both the children and the parents for the duration of the presentation.

-Macquarie Bank – Family Fun Day

Fizzics Education ran a show today at our school and it was wonderful. He was a great facilitator and the show was age appropriate and well done.

-Mount Zion Early learning centre – Little Science Big Fun
