Explore!   EXPERIMENT!   EXERCISE!   Our morning sessions are designed for preschoolers, three to five. This is the age to explore and experiment. At the Kids Outdoor Club, preschoolers are exposed to all sorts of physical activity and athletic equipment, and encouraged to experiment with them in a gentle and playful manner. But the bottom line here is FUN and EXERCISE. Our afternoon sessions are aimed at grade-schoolers, from kindergarten and up. As a result, the afternoons are much more diverse and dynamic. Every day is an adventure and no two days are ever the same! Our experienced and energetic coaches adapt each day's program to accomodate a wide range of ages, group sizes, and interests. Afternoon activities can range from organized soccer matches to Capture-the-Flag, mini Olympics to freeze tag, Hide-and-Seek to nature hikes. We have it all! At the core of every day are TWO GUIDING PRINCIPLES: providing children with the opportunity for free, undirected play, while at the same time encouraging everyone to participate in organized group games and sports in positive and supportive environment. It is the constant balance between these two essential childhood experiences that makes the Kids Outdoor Club the most unique and innovative activity for kids today. In short, at the Kids Outdoor Club, there is something for everyone!

Founded by a San Francisco father of three, Kids Outdoor Club was designed with the whole family in mind to be the most flexible and most affordable activity in town. During the school year, with a monthly club membership, you can come any time, when it best suits your family’s schedule and your child’s energy and inspiration. No more hurried scrambles to practice, no more whining meltdowns from the stress of over-scheduled kids. And once there, your child can enjoy up to three hours of sports, games, nature, and fun with children of all ages, from all over the city. We make sure every day includes something for every child -- from traditional competitive sports to creative cooperative games to relaxed nature hikes-- as well as plenty of free time, when children can just relax and enjoy being together in a magnificent natural environment. In the summertime, choose from half or full day camp options. No membership required! But don’t take our word for it. Come by for a free trial, any time! Or, better yet.... Click any of the Recommended Resource links at left. You'll want your kids outdoors after seeing those! So will your PTA, parents and school Principals!

Kids love being outdoors, and here in San Francisco we enjoy some of the most spectacular parks of any city in the world! Kids Outdoor Club makes the most of it! All of our sessions are on grass, surrounded by trees and wide open spaces, and away from busy streets. On rainy days, slap on your boots and slickers and come on out -- we're here!
