Ideal party idea for little scientists!

posted on 18 November 2013

West Coast Fossil Park has come up with an innovative idea: they can host parties for children (why they have all the fun, I can’t imagine!)

As Wendy Wentzel writes, “We have had a “Junior Scientist” party where the children all wore white school shirts like overcoats, with glasses - frames of old ones with the lenses removed!   They had to weigh their cakes, cheese etc. on the scale before they could eat anything.   They then went into our mock dig tunnel and excavated for bones.  They also made their own fossil from plaster of Paris which they took home with them”.   She says it depends very much on what the child wants and how much the parents are prepared to pay.   “On one occasion the Mom did the cake bit whilst we supplied the cooldrinks and toasted sandwiches.”   The attached booking form sets out the variables which you can choose from; also call Wendy at 022-7661606 or email her at
