MAY THEME: COLORFULL BLOOMS

May 6, 13, 20, 27 | Wednesdays at 9:30AM-10:15AM

Do you have a child 18-36 months old? Are you looking for children’s activities in the East Bay area? Garden Buds is a month-long program where your child will meet the same friends each week and practice social skills in an outdoor setting while developing an interest in nature with hands-on activities. The classes will use sustainable and natural materials for the craft activities. The program will provide early education in basic plant knowledge, hands-on plant-based activities, and seasonal experiences exclusive to the Ruth Bancroft Garde

May is a wonderful time to explore the colorful world of cactus and succulents, discovering that flowers grow in surprising places—even on spiky plants. We’ll learn where these unique plants grow and why they thrive there, celebrating an explosion of color through playful activities, art, and discovery. These vibrant classes encourage curiosity, creativity, and a growing love for the natural world.

The price is per child per event series- the May series has 4 classes.

The non-member price includes admission to the Garden for 1 caregiver on class dates.

One caregiver can accompany each child. If siblings, one caregiver can attend with two children. The price is per child.
