Play-Well Marin Activity Center - San Anselmo, California

I planned my sons's birthday party here and it was a blast! They have a huge play room for parties that can be rented out. They have a massive collection of lego bricks so that you can build anything you can imagine! Our host(?) name was Ian and he was great with kids! We interacted with all the children really well and got them all to clean up too!

They have a large assortment of kits that you can buy there and cool models that they (or other kids) have built to spark your imagination.

They also offer classes/camps for your youngsters. Everything from free building all the way up to engineering style classes.

Pretty awesome stuff and HIGHLY recommendable!

I try to come here every time I’m in Marin. Ian and Art are awesome. They both are extremely knowledgeable about what they do. Whenever I’m there, I like to observe while my son is playing and you can really see that these guys care about the kids that walk through the door.

Ian teaches his classes and really knows what he’s talking about when it comes to what he shows the kids. I’ve listened in a few times and learned a few things myself. And Art knows the ins and outs of all the different projects and when he’s helping a child with a problem he doesn’t just tell them. He will build what he is trying to describe instead of just saying it.

Everyone that I’ve ever encountered there has been awesome and being a parent it’s nice to go in a be able to relax and watch your child use their creativity and imagination and build these amazing contraption. Plus if your stressed out over something and need to clear your mind or decompress, they don’t mind if you build stuff too. I’ve been building a house for about 2 months now (I’m only in Marin 1-2 times a week and we don’t always go there) and they have been saving it for me.

I would highly recommend this place. You will not be disappointed!

Nowhere these days do you find such exceptionally knowledgeable shopkeepers who spare no pains to help you. They are Lego experts, like you don’t even find at Legoland!

I am 69 year old grandma and had a great time here! I came here with my son and three year old granddaughter.

This place is so much fun. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more, me or my toddler. He would have given is 5-stars even if all there was was a LEGO train-set. But, to impress me with LEGOs, you have to have a seriously substantial collection and these folk, do. I think they have more LEGOs out to play with than the LEGO store in Valley Fair Mall has to purchase.

My little man is obsessed with this place. What a gem!

A hidden gem that’s truly amazing for young kids! I can’t believe how many times I passed this place with my kids without realizing the fun we were missing out on! We love it

Perfect place to take kids. They have drop-in play and space to reserve parties. Huge foam Lego's, Duplo, regular Lego's and the Robotic ones.
