Smarty Pants recently took a short break from the holiday season in Chicago to bring his Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly down to Texas, as a headline performer at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion annual Children’s Festival.

We performed our Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly in front of a sold out audience of over 4,000 elementary school students – our biggest audience ever!

Looking for an amazing science assembly for your elementary school? Meet the Mousetrap Machine Show!

The Mousetrap Machine Show Posted on September 14, 2015 by Smarty PantsSeptember 14, 2015

Are you an elementary school in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan or Wisconsin looking to book an amazing science assembly for the upcoming 2015-2016 school year?

The Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly has been visiting schools since 2008, and we present our show in over 75 elementary schools every year!

One thing PTA and PTO parents, and principals always mention is their difficulty in finding quality assemblies to book for their school. Sure you can see photos and videos on a website, but wouldn’t it be nice to meet the presenters in person and learn more about the assembly first-hand?

On Wednesday September 16th, parents and educators are invited to meet Smarty Pants and the Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly at the Premier Showcase, an event designed to pair up assemblies with interested school representatives. There will be over 50 educational assemblies represented and the costs are minimal to attend (and include lunch!)

Meet the Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly at Chicago Showcases

The Mousetrap Machine Show Posted on August 11, 2015 by Smarty PantsAugust 11, 2015

As a parent myself, I know how difficult it can be to find the right assembly program for your elementary school.  A program might look good online, but wouldn’t it be better to meet the assembly presenter in person and see them live on stage?

This fall, Smarty Pants and the Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly will be attending two Chicago area assembly showcases.

These are events open to parents, teachers, and educators looking for quality assemblies for the 2015-2016 school year.  You’ll be able to meet Smarty Pants in person, learn more about the Mousetrap Machine Science Assembly, and see an excerpt of the show presented live on stage:
