Join us for Side by Side!
Come, play, learn—together!
For children up to 30 months, Side by Side at the Marin JCC is a small gathering of young families where your toddler can build social skills, develop friendships, and explore a preschool environment with their caregiver by their side. Together, your child and you will enjoy activities including music, arts and crafts, circle time, and free playtime in the company of other new learners and their caregivers.

The Side by Side program provides…
- An opportunity to build community in a child-centered, age-appropriate, social setting.
- Play exploration, story time, music, and art activities.
- Children will experience a preschool-like setting with the security of a caregiver by their side.
No drop-ins
Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate drop-in attendance. You must pre-register for a Side by Side class.
