Live Animal Birthday Bashes at Marin Treks

Let Marin Treks make your child's next birthday party a day to remember! You can hold your party outdoors at a local park or trail or at their museum in Novato. Marin Treks' exciting hands-on birthday adventures allow the birthday girl or boy and their guests to hold and learn about the museum's amazing collection of live reptiles, amphibians, insects, and arachnids. Discuss where they live, what they eat, how they avoid predators, and a whole lot more. The children are encouraged to ask as many questions as they can and then try to answer their own questions by carefully observing the animals, just like real scientists.

Their basic two-hour party for kids ages 6 to 12 costs $200 for up to 10 guests ($15 for each additional child; maximum of 20) and includes 10 minutes for set-up, a 60 minute animal presentation, 40 minutes for cake and presents, and 10 minutes for clean-up. Gift bags for the guests are available upon request for an additional charge. Other party options are also available, including a preschool party for 4- and 5-year-olds that includes an age-appropriate animal encounter. Birthday party times are Fridays from 5:30 to 7:30 pm and Saturdays from 10 am to noon, 1 to 3 pm, and 3:30 to 5:30 pm.
