I handpick the best classes, camps and family adventures all across California — so you don't have to search alone. It's hard work, but it's my passion, and your support keeps it going. ❤️
California's kids directory · Free for families · Updated weekly
No more last-minute scrambles. GOkidOZ has California families covered from September through August.
School is back — weekly classes and enrichment that fit around the school day from San Diego to Sacramento: music, dance, theatre, STEM, swim, surf and sports.
Day camps for winter break, spring break and ski week — science centers, zoos, aquariums, children's museums and coding studios.
Bay Area and LA day camps, Sierra and Tahoe overnight camps, surf and sailing, zoo and aquarium camps, STEM at Stanford.
GOkidOZ exists because finding the right class for your kid shouldn't take three evenings and eleven browser tabs. California is full of extraordinary programs — you just can't see them all from one place. So I built one: sorted by city and age, honest about what's sponsored, and free.
