As the stay-at-home mom of a preschooler and a baby in the South Bay, finding fun, age-appropriate things to do with kids in the Bay Area used to eat up hours of my week. My search led me through dozens of Bay Area family activity websites. Some covered a single organization or venue, some were curated by county, some hyper-focused on one neighborhood, and a few had a great selection - but only for weekends.

None of them fully solved the problem, so in March I started a subreddit to compile Bay Area kids events myself. When I saw how many other parents were searching for the exact same thing, I knew it was time to move everything to a more sustainable, searchable home.. aka this website.

Whether you're planning a special outing, organizing a playdate, filling a gap between plans in another part of the Bay Area, replanning your day after something falls through, looking for new toddler or baby activities, or searching for things to do with kids while traveling through the region - I sincerely hope that this guide makes it easier.

My goal is to keep Bay Area family events as accessible and up-to-date as possible, so feedback and event suggestions are always welcome. Thank you for visiting!
