City Adventures: Our Favorite Field Trips in San Francisco

At Fuller House Childcare, we treat San Francisco as our playground, turning everyday experiences into exciting learning adventures.

Exploring creativity and curiosity is key. At the Exploratorium, children become young scientists through hands-on, interactive exhibits. Our visits to the Presidio Tunnel Tops are always memorable—especially the spinning chairs, where the joy of play meets the thrill of motion.

We regularly enjoy outdoor performances at Yerba Buena Gardens, watching magicians and community entertainers captivate the kids’ imagination. East Cut soccer fields give our children room to run, play soccer, and learn teamwork through outdoor games, fostering physical and social development.

For days spent closer to the water, we head to South Beach Park, where boats sailing in the bay spark endless conversations about travel and adventure. Trips to Ocean Beach offer a delightful change of scenery as kids feel sand between their toes and witness the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, broadening their sense of wonder.

Quiet moments are treasured too. At Mission Bay Library, storytime with librarians teaches our little learners about community spaces—and how to use their library voices! Dolores Park playground excursions are a playful way to experience the vibrant atmosphere of the Mission neighborhood.

At Fuller House, field trips are not just outings—they’re thoughtful journeys designed to foster curiosity, community connection, and joyful learning.
