In the last half term the three little Gilmour’s went to try out their first Spectac-u-lab workshop. We had in fact won a giveaway for one of their places and it was something we had seen online but hadn’t had the chance to try it out. We paid for the other two spaces so all three children could go and enjoy the workshop together.
We had selected the rocket workshop and was excited to find out what this would entail. Not only would they create the rockets but they would find out the science behind them. Katy is the owner of Spectac-u-lab and she is creative with the science. The children could understand why the reaction would create the result.
Table’s prepped, rockets selected, stickers at the ready. Oh wait and…
…Well equipped.
I have to say it was a huge success and all three kids enjoyed it, they continued to explode their rockets and create at home.
If we were closer to the venue we would certainly go to the Spectac-u-lab CREST Award, it’s perfect for my eldest.
The workshops are affordable, fun, creative, interesting and educational. Thank you Katy for a memorable morning.
Workshops are usually priced at £5 per child per workshop, each workshop is an hour.
