Kids life in San Francisco — the short version

Good to know

By the numbers for this age in San Francisco: 36 dated listings in the next 60 days; 0 run after school on a weekday and 15 land on a weekend; the busiest single venue is West Portal with 4 of them.

On cost: none of these listings carries a free tag in San Francisco's feed, so treat prices as check-the-listing — libraries and rec centres often run these at no cost, but the feed doesn't say so and we won't guess.

Common questions

What's on in San Francisco for school-age kids right now?

The feed lists 36 dated listings for this age in the next 60 days, running Oct 7 to Nov 23 — the Coming up section is pulled straight from it.

Are these drop-in, or do I need to register?

It varies by program, and the page only says which is which where a listing's own words say so — the Good to know section names the drop-in and registration listings it found. When it doesn't say, the listing link is the place to check.

What's free for school-age kids in San Francisco?

None of the current listings carries a free tag in the feed, so check each listing for its price — we don't mark anything free that the source doesn't.
