Greetings! I am super excited to provide you with all the items you'll need to effectively host and promote The Amazing Chemistry Show and The Family Experience! Below you will find some great items you can use to get the word out to your church and community.
We have several volunteer roles that will need to be filled. The Volunteer Signup Sheet and Descriptions can be use to both keep yourself organized as well as be placed at a volunteer signup table to show volunteers the roles they could sign up to fulfill.
The Family Experience Floor plan is a map of how tables can be arranged for the hands-on science stations. Print this floor plan and have the tables arranged BEFORE my arrival.
Please note: While we can accommodate a variety of venue set up arrangements, this event MUST take place inside (with the exception of the rocket station which could be outside depending on weather). The suggested floor plan shows all science stations in one room, but we can adjust to fit into more than one room or even use hallway space to accommodate your venue set up.
Build Rockets
You need to build 50-75 cardstock paper rockets. Print copies of the Rocket Designs on cardstock paper. You do NOT need to create one rocket per attendee – the rockets will be used over and over by the families. We provide the actual rocket launchers that will be used during the event. We actually provide 4 rocket launchers to keep the crowd moving through. You are only responsible for making the paper rockets.
**Please be sure to purchase 1/2 inch diameter PVC pipe to ensure rockets are built to the correct dimensions.
Print Paper Airplanes
You will need to print paper airplane designs on regular paper. Print double sided and in color. Print at least of 25-30 of each of the 7 designs. If you expect more guests, print more. Consider printing one airplane/each child.
Pre Show Videos and Preparation
We have several options for opening the show! Review each option and consider the unique aspects of your event. Please download the Tech Requirements for the Sound Team. You may have already received this sheet as an attachment from me in an email. I have placed it here again for convenience.
Option A: The 29-Minute Countdown
The 29-minute Pre-Show Countdown is a way for the audience to be entertained and engaged prior to the actual show! The video starts 29 minutes prior to the desired kick off and can automatically lead into the main show.
Option B: The 2-Minute Cartoon Introduction
The 2- Minute Cartoon Countdown allows for you as the host to make several opening announcements and then simply say, “Now direct your attention to the screen for a short introduction video!” This allows Josh to take the stage.
Option C: The MC Verbal Introduction
Resource Table
Printed Sheet Provided at Set-Up

Please set up two, 8’ tables (or three 6’ tables) in the area where guests will be EXITING after the show, typically the church atrium. The Amazing Chemistry Show provides the table coverings. Please recruit two (2) people to set up 1 hour before the show begins for set up and to be present before and after the show.
