The mission of Panda Scouts is to introduce children to and develop their natural love and curiosity for science and the natural world. Their teachers, all of whom have or are pursuing graduate level degrees in fields such as early childhood education and psychology, achieve this mission through interactive hands-on learning as well as creative hands-on science activities. Each uniquely themed Panda Scouts birthday party includes the following:  A fun and educational theme of your choosing, such as Journey to Ancient Egypt or The Galapagos Adventure; Imaginative costume or headpiece according to the chosen theme; special interactive informational boards that are both educational and fun for the kids; 2 different types of hands on activities, including materials, uniquely designed for the chosen theme; party games; organically and locally (when ever possible) sourced hot food; party favors for all the guest and a special gift for the birthday child! Party must be scheduled by 9/1/11.
