Happy Hive Preschool Afterschool Program
Offered by Ross Recreation in collaboration with the Garden School and Marin Art and Garden Center, the Happy Hive Preschool Afterschool Recreation program is designed for preschoolers ages 2-5 who are fully potty-trained. This fun and engaging extended care program is held on Marin Art and Garden Center campus and offers a variety of activities including arts and crafts, music, nature exploration, and group games, all while encouraging imagination, teamwork, and a love for play. Naps will be available for kids who may need a short rest after school.
