stop.watch productions are looking for SIBLING PAIRINGS aged between 5 TO 9 YEARS to feature in a new season of our science show LET’S FIND OUT for RTÉjr.

Because of COVID protocols, we are only accepting families living in County Cork. Children must be available to attend for filming at a location in Cork city on one of these days: 18th, 19th, 20th and 21st of May 2021.

A parent must be available to accompany their children at the filming location.

If you have two children within the 5-10 age group, please fill in this form to indicate your interest

Please include a video (approx 3 mins) which includes :

  • Both children introducing themselves e.g. Hi my name is… I’m… years of age and I’m from….“,
  • The children together showing us a favourite simple science experiment (if one sibling is much younger, have the older one show him/her what they are doing)
  • Each child telling us their favourite science fact or their favourite joke!
