Activities for the Whole Family

Sound Bath: Join Get Zen Sounds, both Saturday and Sunday morning from 10am-11am for a free sound bath experience. A gong and crystal singing bowl sound bath is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the sounds of some powerful healing instruments. Across the centuries, the gong and singing bowl have been known for their intense transformational properties. The sound vibrations of the gong and singing bowl help to reset our nervous system and promote healing within the body. Location: Center Grass

Make your Own Slime: In addition to other satisfying goodies, Sparklez Slimez will be providing slime for you to customize to your hearts desire.  An amazingly fun sensory activity for the whole family!  Booth 28

Facepainting by Linda: Along with facepainting, enjoy glitter tattoos, nail art and unicorn braids. Booth J

Live Custom Poetry: Los Angeles street poet Bryan Mahoney (The Typin’ Pint) writes custom poems about you on the spot! Just tell him who or what you want a story about, and he'll rhyme and wrangle up a few stanzas! All his poems are written on vintage typewriters - including one that's 116 years old. Booth 17

Watercolor Painting: Come visit the A Bit Better Press Painting Station where you and your kiddos can color a FREE watercolor postcard! We'll provide the art supplies, YOU provide the creativity! Booth 131

Chess at Three: Chess at Three teaches children complex subjects through the art of storytelling. Children fall in love with the game of chess by learning from their story-based curriculum. Following a cast of quirky, memorable characters through the magical world of Chesslandia, students swiftly become successful chess players while developing critical thinking, strategy, and problem-solving skills. Come to our booth to hear engaging stories and play fun mini-games! Booth K

Nectar Landscape Design Booth: Make your own Wildflower seed packet where you can learn about an assortment of native, California wildflowers, why they are amazing, and all of the different ways to grow and cultivate them yourself.

Immerse yourself in a sensory plant exploration discovering the different aromatic qualities, feel the various textures, and learn about how they all help our local ecosystem. Plus chat with designers from Nectar! Booth M
