Wacky Kid Color and Bubble Festival

Saturday, May 4 & 11, 2024
11am-4pm
Maple Neighborhood Center, 3301 37th Ave.  Sacramento, CA 95824

UPDATE: Due to the expected heavy rains and cold temperatures much of this event is being postposed to May 11. For May 4 our seven college Interns will be present, 11am-4pm with their activity rain or shine (there will be no bubbles on May 4).

For May 11 we will have the Bubbles, Slime, Plunger Scooter Races, Face Painting and Shelly is doing Tortellini’s first Birthday Party (Happy Birthday and cake for all tortoises at 12:30pm). We are currently contacting the other vendors on their availability.

ADDED SPECIAL! Help Shelly, the Tortoise, and her friend, Kali, celebrate their friend’s, baby Tortellini, first Birthday! Watch them enjoy their special tortoise cake at 12:30pm. Tortellini is a guest from the Royce family. Kali is a male guest from the Chun family. See the size difference between them and how they interact. Note: We will celebrate Shelly’s birthday on June 14.

The Wacky Kid Color and Bubble Festival is a FREE fun event for the whole family (kids of all ages). We’ll have our famous bubble machine in operation and our Sac State Child Development Interns will each be hosting an activity booth based upon a bubble or color scheme (currently this is: Butterfly Mural, Bubble Painting, Splash Painting, Face Painting, Musical BBQ, Mud Kitchen, Color Clay Creations, Door Mural). As always, all the other elements of the Adventure Playground will be open.

Plus Plunger Scooter Races! Yes, as crazy as it sounds. Races every 1/2-hour 12-3:30.

All ages to have access to all parts of the Playground for this event. This event replaces the previous Bubble and Color Running event.
