Professor Nicol's chemical show. Professor Nicol's Children's Science Show

Is your child growing, developing, becoming smarter and more inquisitive every year? He was bored with the standard celebrations with disguised animators? Do you want to find a fresh idea and spend your leisure time with your son or daughter in an informative, original, useful way? So, you need to visit the Evrika Scientific and Educational Center in Vladimir: the Crazy Professor Nicolas Show takes place here, which will be the most vivid impression for your child. This is the most fun and unforgettable, but at the same time the most educational and scientific holiday for kids. Tricks and their disclosure, dry ice and clouds of smoke, polymer worms and artificial snow, slime sticking to the wall and water not pouring out of a bucket - what could be more interesting for children?

What is the Professor Nicolas Show?

So, The Mad Professor Nicolas Show is a science and educational show that shows the basics of sciences such as physics and chemistry through fun and exciting demonstrations. The show program is intended for children from three to fifteen years old.

To date, more than forty thousand scientific shows have been held in different cities and countries - the crazy professor Nicolas has become very popular thanks to the format in which the event takes place - it is called edutainment. This means that the show takes place simultaneously in three contexts:

• Cognitive (children are shown something new).
• Educational (kids learn new knowledge that is useful for their development).
• Game (learning takes place not at the desk, but during a fun game).

By the way, edutainment has long been used abroad as a full-fledged teaching method and has even become part of the program in educational institutions: Canada, the United States of America and some European countries successfully use this educational form. The researchers argue that this method allows you to make the process of assimilation of information much more efficient.

The Mad Professor Nicolas Show: Favorite Experiments

Amazing close by! Exactly one year ago I met Crazy Professor V . And today Kolya invited me to his show, which he held at the Obidimsk boarding school near Tula.
Kolya and Olya (his assistant) gave a small but real holiday to the children and teachers who gathered in the school assembly hall.
This is often written about, but I will say it again: such grateful eyes and such emotions, as we saw today, you see infrequently. All children, of course, enjoy the holidays. But children who are not spoiled by variety are doubly happy. Today they were happy. Thank you Kolya and his team for that!
Thanks also to the director of the school, Timur Nadarovich Tolordav, who decided to invite the Professor and make the children happy. Timur Nadarovich has been working in an orphanage for 19 years. He came to the Tula region from Abkhazia by distribution, and remained so. The director talked a lot about the children, the life of the village and about himself. But he struck me to the core with one phrase: although I am an atheist, I believe in God!

As soon as we arrived in Obidimo and entered the hall, the guys began to prepare for the performance, collecting props for experiments. Everything worked out. So literally in 15 minutes everything was ready. It remains to put on the "overalls".

Numerous photographers captured every step of the Professor

...and his assistants Olga))

Charging the sweet making machine.

"Look, what a funny pip..." ©

Everything is ready, you can start.

But, first you need to have a bite)) The director Timur Nadarovich treated us with true Caucasian hospitality.

The walls of the school are painted.

Everywhere order and cleanliness.

Nicolas does the professor's hair.

A real professor: even to the stage, even to a meeting of the Academy of Sciences))

How are the audience there?

Everything is fine!

Both Nikolai's phones ring continuously. There is no end to those wishing to order a show. But ... Kolya and his entire team are scheduled for many days ahead.

All right, you can go on stage.

Spectators in the field.

The show starts!

A simple yet effective experience with dry ice.

Another "smoky" experience - crazy soda)

A "death number" is being prepared. An assistant from the audience is about to pour the contents of the glass on the Professor's head.

And pours out! But ... the gel formed in the glass does not want to pour out))

The next number is Kolya Yaikin.

Which has to crawl through the narrow neck of the flask and come back.

Experiment with colored liquids. Everything is smoking again!

Experience with disappearing ink.

This is how snow is made.

Everyone wants to touch the resulting snow.

Which of the two arcs is longer?

And now?

It turns out that you can inflate the balloon not only by blowing air, but also by blowing it out.

Kolya is amazingly artistic and emotional. I think this is half of his success.

Soap super bubbles.

But what kind of experience, I do not remember.

Another highlight of the program is gel worms.

Singing pipe.

Sings, if it is well untwisted.

Another type of buzzer.

Giant chimney!

Kolya and Olya are completing the main program.

And they move on to the final - the preparation of cotton candy in front of the astonished audience.

In order to have time to prepare cotton wool for everyone (and there were about 80 people at today's performance!), You have to work on two machines in four hands.

The results of this experience are edible.

Which of course pleases the audience.

Someone came with a sword, someone with wings)

The distribution of wool continues.

Boys are boys! Arranged a fight on sticks from cotton wool)

The cotton wool is eaten, the show is over. General photo for memory. And the guys will have something to remember!

And this one of the boys asked for a camera and took a picture of me with his comrades.

All kids love chemistry and experimenting! It is on this that the direction of edutainment "edutainment" is built - a combination of two English words (education "education" + entertainment "entertainment"). In the West, this phenomenon is no longer a novelty, but in our country everything is still developing. At the origins of the industry of children's science shows in Russia is the company "Merry Science", known for its brand "The Crazy Professor Nicolas Show".

Our show is an absolute hit at children's parties. "All inclusive".

This one-hour program includes experiments with dry ice (frozen carbon dioxide), experiments with polymers (how to pour a glass of water on your head or make artificial snow), rainbow glasses (we study the spectrum), experiments with sound, making polymer worms (each child takes them home with you), as well as making cotton candy (our presenter explains how the device works, and then each of the participants in the show prepares cotton candy and treats himself to it!).

However, the time for graduations is approaching very soon, and we believe that the best children's graduation, of course, is in a scientific style!

For the school graduation, we have prepared three wonderful programs, each of which contains about 15 experiments:

This classic science show includes experiments with dry ice, where everything bubbles, rainbow glasses, experiments with polymers, musical experiments, children will make a whirlpool in a bottle with their own hands, be surprised by invisible ink, and also learn how to carry water in a sieve . And, of course, each of the participants in the show will take home a self-made polymer worm!

Fire, earth, air and water - so many interesting experiments are devoted to the four elements. The children will see a real volcano, an explosion of a hydrogen bomb, a giant blower, learn how to control a water jellyfish, and make a bouncy ball with their own hands, which they will take home with them. That's great!

How can you put a balloon on a bed of nails without bursting? Is it possible to draw with the heat of the hands or leave a bloody imprint on a piece of paper? How will the beads jump out of the jar by inertia? How can you blow out a candle from a distance of three meters and make a ball out of a nipple, and is it possible to hypnotize the whole class as a whole? The guys will find answers to these and many other questions in the Super Lab show. And the preparation of polymer worms by each participant will be a worthy end to the program.

And for graduation in kindergarten, we have prepared a separate program:

Experiments with dry ice, soap bubbles filled with carbon dioxide, making artificial snow, rainbow glasses, roly-poly birds and a dozen more experiments - all this in the "Show for the little ones" is ideal for graduation in kindergarten.

By the way! When ordering any prom show, you will receive a 25% discount on any of our mini experiments! An excellent gift for every graduate - a child will take bright and interesting experiments in a beautiful package with him as a gift!

And any program can be supplemented cotton candy show. You can also expand the hourly program to an hour and a half!

We are pleased to announce that now our scientific shows can be seen not only in Moscow, but also in other cities!

Nikolai Ganailyuk, known to children as Professor Nikolay, a MIPT graduate, one of the founders of the edutainment direction in Russia (from two English words entertainment and education). Three years ago, he founded his own company "Merry Science" LLC, known under the brand "Mad Professor Nicolas Show", whose activities are related to conducting science shows for children, the main purpose of which is to interest elementary and secondary school students and show that science is great ! During the interactive science shows, the children actively participate in experiments, learn a lot of new things, because after each demonstration there is an explanation. Currently, the project "The Show of the Mad Professor Nicolas" is actively developing throughout Russia on a franchise basis. To date, the project has been successfully launched in 30 cities of Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. The company also pays more attention to charity, regularly performing in orphanages and hospitals. Moreover, realizing that not all children will be able to see the show for one reason or another, Nikolai makes an educational video on his own to enable all Russian-speaking children to learn something new.

We bring to your attention 10 amazing magic tricks, experiments, or science shows that you can do with your own hands at home.
At your child's birthday party, weekend or vacation, make the most of your time and become the center of attention of many eyes! 🙂

An experienced organizer of scientific shows helped us in preparing the post - Professor Nicolas. He explained the principles behind a particular focus.

1 - Lava lamp

1. Surely many of you have seen a lamp that has a liquid inside that imitates hot lava. Looks magical.

2. Water is poured into sunflower oil and food coloring (red or blue) is added.

3. After that, we add effervescent aspirin to the vessel and observe a striking effect.

4. During the reaction, colored water rises and falls through the oil without mixing with it. And if you turn off the light and turn on the flashlight, the "real magic" will begin.

: “Water and oil have different densities, and also have the property of not mixing, no matter how we shake the bottle. When we add effervescent tablets inside the bottle, they dissolve in water and begin to release carbon dioxide and set the liquid in motion.”

Want to put on a real science show? More experiences can be found in the book "Experiments of Professor Nicolas".

2 - Experience with soda

5. Surely at home or in a nearby store there are several cans of soda for the holiday. Before you drink them, ask the guys the question: “What happens if you submerge soda cans in water?”
Drown? Will they swim? Depends on the soda.
Invite the children to guess in advance what will happen to a particular jar and conduct an experiment.

4 - Soap Volcano

How to make a small volcano erupt at home?

6 - Water in the sieve

We continue to study the magical properties of water and surrounding objects. Ask someone present to put on a bandage and pour water through it. As we can see, it passes through the holes in the bandage without any difficulty.
Bet with others that you can make it so that water will not pass through the bandage without any additional tricks.

Commentary by Professor Nicolas: “Due to such a property of water as surface tension, water molecules want to be together all the time and it is not so easy to separate them (they are such wonderful girlfriends!). And if the size of the holes is small (as in our case), then the film does not tear even under the weight of water!”

7 - Diving bell

And to secure your honorary title of Water Mage and Master of the Elements, promise that you can deliver paper to the bottom of any ocean (or bath or even a basin) without soaking it.

26. We fold the sheet, put it in a glass so that it rests against its walls and does not slide down. Immerse the leaf in an inverted glass to the bottom of the tank.

27. Paper stays dry - water can't get to it! After you pull out the sheet - let the audience make sure that it is really dry.

Commentary by Professor Nicolas: “If you take a glass with a piece of paper inside and look closely at it, it seems that there is nothing but paper, but this is not so, there is air in it.
When we turn the glass upside down and lower it into the water, the air keeps the water from getting close to the paper, which is why it stays dry.
