Houses will compete in a friendly game of Quidditch, make their own wands in Ollivander’s wand class, partake in potions class, and so much more!

June 17 - 21: Pokémon Legends
Mariposa Kids is a screen free program, so we have lots of other fun ways for Pokemon to come into our clubhouse including playing the actual card game.
