We believe play is a right, not a privilege. That’s why Bring Back Play uses a
“pay what you can” model so every kid can join in, no matter what.

San Anselmo Free Play Fridays

March 27th - May 29th

Fridays 3:20-6:30pm

$9 per session, or pay what you can

San Domenico School

1500 Butterfield Rd. San Anselmo, CA 94960

Kids run the show — parents relax and hang out. No refs, no drills, no pressure — just open fields, endless games, and freedom to play how they want. Parents can drop off at any time and leave. They can hang out at the plaza adjacent to the field, or go for a hike in the beautiful hills surrounding San Domenico — either way, the kids will leave sweaty, smiling, and full of stories.


Novato Free Play Sundays

April 12th - May 31st

Sundays 3:30pm - 6:30pm

$9 per session, or pay what you can

Marion Park

Grant Ave. Between 7th and 8th st. Novato, CA 94945

Free play for kids and free time for parents. No schedule. No structure. Just wide-open fields, piles of gear, and room for imagination. Kids play capture the flag, invent games and form their own little world — while parents kick back and actually relax. Parents can drop off and leave or hang out at nearby Downtown Novato.
