  San Francisco Youth Ballet's 22nd Annual Production of "The Nutcracker" Dec 2 - 3 1pm and 5pm This magical, full-length version of The Nutcracker features professional guest artists and the youth talent from the San Francisco Youth Ballet Academy. The dance tells the story of young Clara, who dreams that her gift of a toy nutcracker soldier comes to life. Together Clara & the Nutcracker Prince experience a grand adventure that takes them through an epic battle with the Mouse King to the Sugar Plum Fairy's magical Kingdom of Sweets. This 2-hour production (including a 15-minute intermission) is geared toward families and is a perfect opportunity to introduce young children to this holiday ballet tradition. As always, there will be photo opportunities with different characters after all performances. Sugar Plum VIP seating includes a unique pre-show meet & greet with the Sugarplum Fairy (30 minutes before showtime), concession provisions, and a special gift for children under 10. Enjoy the show from the best seats in the house! Tickets are sold out every year. Buy your tickets early. San Francisco Youth Ballet's Nutcracker has been previously nominated for the Annual Goldstar National Nutcracker Award and has been a beloved San Francisco Holiday tradition since 2001!

  Hidden Villa's After School Adventures.

     After School Adventures After a full day of school, give your child the chance to spend their afternoons exploring Hidden Villa’s farm and wilderness. Our education staff will help students direct their own learning as they work in small groups to engage with our farm animals, take hikes through the forest, and express their creativity and curiosity in a natural setting. Each age group has a different age-appropriate learning focus, and your children will come home from Hidden Villa full of fresh air and more closely connected to our natural world.

  Winter break camps at Rolling Robots have never been more fun! We celebrate all things related to robots - this means building, coding, and inventing! All ages 5-15 can join our specifically curated courses for their age range and interest. Our camps are hands-on and in-depth. Each instructor is specifically chosen for each of the classes they teach, having extensive experience in the subject taught and working with students. We have introductory courses for the youngest of roboteers (5-6) to more vigorous courses for the more experienced roboteers like our App development course using Python Coding. Other camps we offer range from Minecraft and Roblox coding, to Building and Coding LEGO Robotics, VEX IQ, GO, and V5. Most of our camps need no prior experience, which is great lead-ins to our after-school membership programs where students will gain a more in-depth understanding of each subject. While each camp has its unique lessons, our overall objective remains; it is our goal to make sure that when our campers leave camp each day that they go home feeling accomplished, happy, and are able to apply the skills they have learned.

  Register for Steve & Kate's Bay Area Thanksgiving and Holiday Camps

     Here, we put kids in charge. Preposterous? Possibly. Effective? You betcha. When you trust kids, they trust themselves. Since 1980, we’ve put kids in charge of their own learning experience. As they try, fail, and learn on their own, they learn to trust their own judgment, and tackle the challenges of an ever changing world with creativity and confidence. Campers choose from a variety of activities in real-time including coding, sewing, maker crafts, performing arts and more. Families join for any number of days–no weekly sessions or commitments required. You don’t even need to tell us when you’re coming–just register and show up! And if for any reason your plans change, we’ll refund your unused Passes automatically in full at the season's end. Lunch, snacks, and all hours (8am–6pm) included.
