Had a very good experience. Shout out to Catie, Nick and Isabel. The company and its staff are incredible and friendly. Highly recommend booking these guys! read more

We did the half day program for a week in South Pasadena and our child quite enjoyed it! The instructor was welcoming and patient and the class did a lot of projects with maximum inout and creativity from the children. One kid -not mine thankfully!- shocked himself by not following directions as reported by my child, but I guess they will remember to wait for instructions next time. I am not sure about a full day program because the community room is very small and no park or playground time is built in. But, for a half day it was a good experience. read more

We hired Professor Egghead last minute to help celebrate my daughter's 5th birthday. I wasn't sure how much they'd be into, but with COVID, my options were limited. Nick was super easy to schedule with and the professor showed up right on time. The kids LOVED it! They were paying attention the entire time (which honestly was shocking to me) they ranged in age from 3-6 so I thought it'd be a little over their heads but she made it fun and interactive and they were super into it! They were still playing with a project they made for days afterward and kept asking for the "science lady" to come back, so we're actually scheduling follow up play dates with them! I had no idea how much kids would love it, the parents also thought it was great, and made the party easy and fun for all. We did the frozen theme with dry ice, bubbles and snow. But, we're excited to see what else they can learn about. read more

We had Professor Hanh of Professor Egghead do my daughter's birthday party. First of all, I messed up when inputting the date on our reservation form. (I put July 27 instead of 17) I called a couple of days before the party to confirm, and Nick was kind enough to go above and beyond and make sure we were able to still get a professor to come and do the party, despite my mistake. Professor Hanh was amazing. She was engaging and kind and ever so patient (even with my 6 year old nephew yelling out answers out of turn). Our guests were so excited and actually LEARNED a lot -- at a birthday party!! Thank you again, Professor Hanh and Professor Egghead! read more

We absolutely loved having Professor Nathan from Egghead Academy at our party! It was a huge hit with kids and parents alike. Nathan was such a kind, informative teacher. The kids loved learning about science and loved all the experiments, especially making slime at the end. Would totally recommend, even some parents were asking for business cards. Everything was so easy as well, he came and set his table quickly. Everything went smoothly. read more

Couldn't be happier with our daughter's 5th birthday party! Professor Egghead (Professor Delilah) completely surpassed our expectations. She had 30 kids enthralled with her presentations, demonstrating color changing acids/bases, dry ice etc etc - it suited our daughter down to the ground. It was exciting and they all learned something too! It was super relaxing for all of the parents, including us, to have all the children so rapt, and well taken care of. They all really enjoyed the slime activity and the theme was cohesive. Professor Delilah was well prepared, organized, and the kids loved her. read more

I work as a Children's Ministries Director at First Evangelical Church, Glendale. We hired Professor Egg head and couldn't be happier with their Science show. Every kid had an absolute incredible time, they were so engaged and had a lot of fun. We can't wait to hire them again for another event. Thank you so much for the best time! read more

My daughter wanted a science themed birthday party so we made a booking and we're generally excited about it. She loves science, and as a teacher and a parent, it's always great to include learning in everything. But as a parent I was incredibly disappointed. We had booked for 1:30 and confirmed in the days prior and everything appeared to be in order, until I was left a message at 1:22 that our professor would be delayed over an hour with very little explanation. Eight minutes was not nearly enough time to prepare for such a shift in plans especially when there are 20ish first graders running around the house and indoors is your only option on account of rain. But when it's your child's birthday, you've got to make it special and get it together. So I put my teacher hat on and gathered some materials I had and we filled the time with our own homemade STEM challenges building paper airplanes and spaghetti structures until our professor finally arrived 77 minutes after they were supposed to be there. Awesome. Now we can relax a little and enjoy, but that wasn't really the case either unfortunately. When our professor arrived, there were no introductions and I did not even get their name. They set up and got started. The kids were engaged, but the professor appeared to be struggling to maintain attention, keep things moving, and generally manage the 20 or so kiddos. My child was given their shirt, but that was also a little bit of a disappointment because it had a tie on it and even my seven year old thought that was weird because "girls can be scientists too Mommy! I don't wear a tie!" And that was pretty much the only special attention the bit bday child was given during the time the professor was here. We had to remind them that maybe the birthday girl could pick their materials first to get the color they wanted. There was a lot of chaos in distributing materials and a LOT of dead time in getting them going and ensuring they were completing things appropriately. We had 2 additional grown up guests jump in to help ensure kiddos filled their mold all the way up, then provided assistance opening them up without a lot of direction from the professor. At the conclusion of our delayed scheduled time, the professor packed up and left without saying much and left a large puddle of water and bouncy ball goo on the floor. Thankfully, however, the kids had fun and didn't really pick up on the rest of the chaos or issues with the delay, but from my standpoint, this service was incredibly disappointing and it would have been much more worth it to have done it all myself or with a couple other grown ups. We were genuinely excited about using this company, and didn't entirely know what to except but they were helpful in our planning and booking, and the information they provided was engaging and gave us something very fun to look forward to. But in the end it was pretty disappointing. When I called the company to find out more information about how this happened, there was a connection to an emergency line for party bookings. I left a message there, but never received a phone call or any level of communication. I'm certain there are better companies out there for things like this or just consider doing it yourself. Please consider booking elsewhere. read more

Professor Egghead was a hit at my daughter's 7 year old birthday. We hosted in our backyard with 35+ kids and the Professor and her assistant did a great job of putting together a fun mad science show followed by making slime. The kids had fun guessing what will happen with each experiment. It was interactive with the kids getting to hold a gas / jelly-like bubble, and there was no mess at all with the slime. I got many compliments from parents who said their kid wanted a mad science + slime party too =) read more

I hired Prof Egghead for a small Halloween party in my backyard. I was expecting the usual, but what we got far exceeded my expectation. Professional, on-time, beautifully set up. The professor had the sweetest disposition. She had ALL the children ooh'ing and Ahhh'ng. I've not seen my eight year old this engaged, for this long not using an iPad in a long time. The kids LOVED it. Rave reviews. Highly, HIGHLY recommend this company for any event or party!! read more

We hired Professor Egghead Science for my daughter's 7th birthday party. We absolutely loved professor Vivi and all the "real" science she did for the kids. From dry ice to acids, bases and the snow experiment that each kid got to make it was all fantastic. Kept the kids totally engaged for an hour. Bonus that it was a woman scientist. The girls loved itWe had used another science company a few years ago for my son's birthday and Professor Egghead was so so much better than the other company. It was more real science, and knowledge based versus gimicky, play science. Thank you Professor Vivi! read more

We just used Professor Egghead for my daughter's 5th birthday party. The theme we chose was "Freakin Frozen" since she wanted a Frozen themed party! It was perfect! Professor Kelley was super good with the kids and so accomodating to our time. We had so much fun learning about science (I think the adults loved it as much as the kids if not more!) and making fake snow at the end. All in all, I loved the fact that it was educational and fun at the same time. I can't wait to call them again so we can have them over! Thank you for the best time! read more

So happy to have found Professor Egghead & all his side kicks. They are fantastic and my children love exploring & experimenting with them on Zoom. Prepackaged science & STEM kits arrive on our doorstep and all we do is log on & learn! Makes for a nice break for me from homeschool and is fun & educational for the kids. read more

Amazing! Wonderful! Engaging!!! Ashley the scientist came to my daughters 9th birthday and I was worried it was going to not be geared towards (girls or 9 years old) I couldn't have been more wrong! 25, 9 year old girls couldn't get enough and were impressed by everything Ashely did. Even my daughters friends who were 16, were completely mesmerized by the show!! I spoke/emailed with Nick who I believe was the owner and he was awesome! Attentive and always returned my calls or emails promptly! Also they were a lot more reasonable than any other science party place! A lot!! Thanks professor egghead! read more

I had the Egghead Professors come to my classroom for my 2nd grade students. The students were so excited to watch and share their knowledge about what we had been learning about in science class. They watched some experiments and then the did their own and made slime to take home. There is nothing like hands on activities to really bring learning to life. Our professor was patient and answered all of the questions. I would definitely do this again for my students next year. read more

I was introduced to this service at a birthday party for my friend's child and I was so impressed, that I hired them to do my own daughter's fourth birthday party just a month later! Kimberly was assigned to be our party "professor," and she did not disappoint. They are so enthusiastic and do a wonderful job including the kids and engaging them in cool science experiments. We made bouncy balls, which the kids then took home as party favors. The prices are reasonable, too. I would hire them again! read more

Professor Egghead is awesome!!!! I organized a birthday party for my boss' 3 year old daughter and called up Professor Egghead on rather short notice. Needless to say, I was stressed they'd be all booked up, but Nick allayed my fears! Booking our party with Nick was a breeze thanks to his positivity and network of amazing scientists! We had Professor Ashely and SHE IS AWESOME!!!!! Although our party consisted of mostly 3-5 year olds, they were transfixed by the experiments! She has such a great way with the kids and it was an especially nice touch to have a female scientist at a girls' birthday party! ALL the parents at the party kept coming up to me and saying, "She is FANTASTIC! How did you find her? Look at the kids! They're so into it!" Needless to say, I happily passed the Egghead info on to them! :) Thank you so much for such a great show for the kids, and a great learning experience! And especially from me, thank you for helping me to impress my bosses!!! :) read more

They did an amazing 8th bday for my daughter! Mariah entertained the kids and adults!! It was so fun I have had 2 other parents schedule the same party for their kids. It was the easiest bday party I've done. Mariah is the best! Also nick was extremely easy to work with for planning the party. It was done by phone when he explained all the details to me. And then the paperwork was super easy by email. It is also very affordable for what you get!!! read more

I contacted professor egghead for my daughter's 5th birthday party & what a hit it was!!!! My daughter loves science because science is real life magic. She loves volcanoes, dinosaurs, making slime, learning about why things work, weather, tide pools, all of it! So when Neil showed up & presented about matter, solids liquids & gases, she & her friends were glued to the presentation! The parents were impressed with his knowledge & fun energetic personality & the kids were just engaged, a feat for a group of four & five year olds! We did their "what's a matter" party, making volcanoes lava slime for the culminating activity. Cannot say enough how happy I am with their service & presentation! read more

Professor Egghead (Kelly was the scientist that day) was the HIGHLIGHT of our super-sciencey son's 5th Birthday Party! Both the kids AND the parents were riveted by the highly visual science experiments. I've seen my fair share of kids science shows, and this was a fresh take on classics like dry ice while also offering an accessible take on sophisticated concepts (like "universal reagents"). Agree with the note that it's awesome to have a female scientist. :) read more

My son had a great time attending this camp for two weeks. The activities were fun and interesting and he liked the counselors. Only complaint is that 98% of the campers were significantly younger than him. read more

My daughter wanted a science themed 7th birthday party and I am so glad we went with Professor Egghead. Two professors showed up early and set up everything. They had so many experiments, demonstrations, and activities that captured the attention of our wide range of children (ages 3-8). The kids were engaged and excited the entire time. I highly recommend Professor Egghead for an absolutely amazing party! read more

We hired Professor Egghead for my twin girls' 9th bday party. The theme was slime, and we asked them to offer two different slimes: giggly and fluffy/snow slime. On the day of the party, Professor Ashley showed up 20 minutes early, set up, and was ready to go on time! Professor Brittany (Ashley's assistant) showed up shortly after Ashley, and also helped set up. They started the party with a 20-30 min demonstration using dry ice, water, food coloring, and dish soap, and it was a huge hit with the girls! Ashley was enthusiastic and engaging, and very knowledgeable. It was also great to see a female scientist do the demo! They then moved on to the slime making, which the kids loved! I will definitely use Professor Egghead again, and will also recommend them to others for parties! read more

My 6 year old and all of his classmates in the Professor Egghead Class offered through his school absolutely LOVE this class. I know my son looks forward to his class every week and talks about it for the rest of the week. The Professor is funny, kind and really breaks down the concepts so that little minds can understand and use them! I Hope our school signs up for another session this year! If not, I know my little Egghead will be very disappointed! read more

I invited the professor to my daughter ' s party. It was a last minute decision, and Nick tried hard to make it happen. Professor Kimberly was able to keep kids engaged and intrigued for whole hour. Thank you for making our party so special!! read more

My son really enjoyed the week long camp. He was excited to go every day and was full of new information, stories and science projects every afternoon when I picked him up. He is looking forward to going again. The "Professors" were all very nice, knowledgeable, caring and friendly. When there was a concern one day they called my mobile phone and explained everything and gave me options on what we could do. Very professional. read more

Professor Egghead joined our science-themed party for our 9 year old daughter and it was a HIT! Professor Rachel was so sincere, patient and connected to the kids, while lifting their minds and imagination along the way! Lots of oooh's & aaaah's and eyes lit up! Love how they make science cool & fun to inspire the next generation of inventors & creators! read more

Amazing! Our daughter's ninth birthday was so much fun with science (formulating slime and creating bouncy balls/planets)! We highly recommend! read more

We had PE come for my daughter's 7th birthday and it was a huge hit! The kids were all very engaged, the parents thought it was fun and interesting and how cool that the kids had a great time and learned some stuff!! Professor Ashley was amazing and I'm so happy my daughter got to see a woman doing science! They made slime and it honestly didn't come out awesome, but the kids had fun and were happy with it. I thought the cost was reasonable and she brought all the supplies she needed and cleaned up afterwards. Totally recommend if you have a curious kid who likes playing with science! read more

Good communication, easy to work with and we got to have a bit of science in our own backyard! Professor Kimberly was wonderful with the kids and stayed distant while demonstrating. She was very careful to put on her mask when she needed to come near the kids to pass out supplies to make slime. We used them once before and this was our second time. Highly recommend! read more

We hired Professor Egghead for our child's 6th birthday party. We were impressed that a female scientist came. The dry ice/bubble experiment was a big hit. But after a little while, a bunch of the kids lost interest. We had to wrangle them back for the next experiments. I would have given 5 stars, but because the kids weren't all engaged and the professor was not great at keeping the kids there, I'm giving 4 stars. read more

I understand a lot of people have had a positive experience with Nick, as did I, but then I was left hanging after confirming a birthday party with him. We had confirmed via email a few weeks in advance for a specific date and theme, and were in communication throughout. I had questions and he replied back to me right away, everything was going so well, we were so excited, and when I sent the booking forms and to coordinate paying the deposit, Nick said he wasn't even sure if he had a professor who could come to the party. If he had given me a heads up to send in the booking forms/deposit to secure the date, I would have ASAP, but I was under the impression everything was all set. It's so stressful as it is planning a birthday, and then when something like this happens, you're kind of just taken aback. read more

Can't say enough good things! The presentation was excellent and the kids were mesmerised and focused for an hour! The experiments were so unique and educational too! Our daughter got to be the lab assistant and loved it. All the parents were so impressed and kept asking me how I found them. It has been a few weeks and I forgot the name of our professor but she was amazing and very good at engaging the kids. I will update with her name. The kids got to make slime at the end and it was supervised, contained and not messy! I would recommend this for a party. Our daughter turned 7 so it is the perfect age. read more

We booked Prof Egghead for my son's 6th bday. We had kids as young as 3 participate in the presentation and "gravity balls". When the scientist (who was female - YES!) first started talking, I was so afraid she'd lose their attention but they were mesmerized. Kids were happy, parents got to visit so they were happy. Absolutely fantastic, highly recommend! read more

We had Professor Egghead come for my son's 5th birthday party. They went over and beyond answering all my questions beforehand and even made gave decorating advise. The kids loved every second-- and was a hit. I have highly recommended them to parents who attended the party- and now to Yelp . read more

My son had his 6th Birthday party with Professor Egghead; I could not have believed that 29 5 - 6yr olds sat, fully engaged, for ~1hr while they learned all about cool science! The kids loved it, as did the parents! They really did an amazing job, and the kids so enjoyed the hands-on end - making their own slime - (which was our choice) and super fun! Can't say enough good things! read more

Eggheads is currently providing after school enrichment at my son's school (Pasadena Rosebud Academy). The program is 6 weeks, but they just added a second session for another 6 weeks. My son absolutely LOVES going to this class. He is always eager to share with me what he has learned every Tuesday. He also shows his 4 year old brother what he's learned (if able-depends on the type of experiment/activity they did for the day). I love that it's convenient for parents because it takes place right after school and it's less than $100. You can't beat that! I am thankful to Nick for providing this opportunity to the students at Rosebud, and I can't wait to see/hear about what my son will be learning over the next 6 weeks! read more

My 5 year old loved the Lego class that was offered at his school and looked forward to it every week. He came home using words such as "axle", "engineering" "aerodynamics" "robotics" and more. I was very impressed with the program and will definitely sign him up again. read more

What a great class! My son thrived in it. He is so much more confident building lego's and he wants to do a science experiment daily! I highly recommend this class! read more

We LOVED our experience with Egghead! We have done their camps as well as hired them for our son's 7th birthday party. Nick the owner was super easy to work with, and our instructor Professor Ashley is a true professional. Not only is she super smart, but she communicates the intricacies of science in a way the kids can easily understand and get excited about. It's so fun to hear the kids squeal with delight as an experiment unfolds! We feel these early fun experiences with science help set the kids up for a lifetime of being excited about learning. We love our public school, but science is not yet on the curriculum at this age, and these extra experiences with Egghead have become really important to us, especially having a boy who loves inventing, building, imagining, and tinkering. read more
