Families and Kids

Festival goers of all ages love the youth activities at Novato's Festival of Art, Wine and Music. The Kids Area includes guided art projects, train rides, climbing wall and petting zoo, bounce houses, jumbo slides and a dunk tank. The Novato Fire Protection District, Novato Police Department, Novato Sanitary District and other public agencies offer fun and educational activities geared toward lessons in safety and conservation for children and their parents.

Our young and young-at-heart racecar drivers find slot car racing challenges their reaction times.

Lemonade, smoothies and funnel cakes, ice cream and frozen yogurt help kids beat the heat. Select artists specialize in children's books, toys, gifts, clothing and accessories.
