CHILDREN AND FAMILY PROGRAMS

Crissy Field Center's award winning children, family, and camp programs are designed to bring youth and families out into their national park to experience the wilderness in their backyard.

Our popular Fantastic Fridays program for children ages 18 months to 4 years provides sensory activities and games that engage parents and toddlers with nature.

Workshops and Clubs include interactive classes like mud grabs and digital photography that help participants learn about special park resources.

Special Events feature favorites like family campfires, programs en español, and interactive family fitness festival Earth Stroll.

Our Day Camps combine outdoor investigation, field outings, and fun hands-on projects for kids entering grades 1 through 8. Youth entering grades 9 through 12 can continue their camp experience by leading and mentoring high school youth as Counselors in Training (CITs).
