    Happy Picasso Art School in Millbrae is a wonderful place for kids to explore creativity. The teachers are patient, the environment is inspiring, and my child always looks forward to class!

    My name is Preston and I enjoy drawing and painting. I have fun in this class. Here are some of my art work.

    My daughter has been attending Happy Picasso for 2.5 years now and absolutely loves it. She started with Level 1 when she was 5 years old and is now in Level 3. She has learned to use crayons, markers, acrylic markers, pastels and watercolor. She also loves using the soft clay to make different figurines. My daughter loves the different themes they choose like Pokemon and Kirby. The school is very clean and the teachers are so patient and attentive. Highly recommend Happy Picasso if your child loves art and drawing!

    We love Happy Picasso! Both my girls attending this art class.This class makes art so fun and inspiring, thank you for creating such a positive space.

    My daughter, 6 year old, has spent almost the last whole year here. Her art sense has improved quite a lot. Staff are very nice and knowledgeable with their crafts. Will continue with the process...

    My daughter started attending classes here when she was 4 years old and had already learned so much. From oil pastels to watercolor techniques, I am amazed each week with the artwork she comes home with. Would highly recommend!

    Creations are so creative. The staff is so patient and helpful. Kids just love coming to class.

    We've been attending for several years. Lots of fun for casual learners with more advanced options for budding artists. Love it here!

    My kid have lots of fun in art class. Her drawing has improved a lot after few months. The teachers are nice. Definitely recommend this for other kids.

    2 of my kids have been taking the art class at Happy Picasso for 5 years. They first started in their Daly City location and then we switched to Millbrae location which is closer to our house. They had a great experience with the Ms. Mel and Ms. Amber. They are very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about art, and they created a positive and supportive learning environment. They are always available to answer questions and provide guidance. They have learned a variety of art techniques, including pencil drawing, painting, clay, and the newest digital art. They especially enjoyed the projects where they were able to experiment with different materials and techniques. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is interested in learning more about art and drawing.

    This is a long overdue review. My 5 year old daughter had her birthday here back in 2024. Highly…read morerecommend. We did the party package where you had play time in the playground, then time in party room, then arcade. We chose last time slot on a Saturday I think. Since the play time is timed I'd recommend warning all your guests about it and have them arrive early. We sent all the parents a schedule and heads up so things could run super smooth and the kids could enjoy every minute of play time. Parking is very limited since it's a super small lot and there's a party ahead of you too. The host family has a reserved parking spot out front but our guests definitely need to just find street parking, they came early and seemed to find parking fine. Staff will collect bday gifts in a cart which is super helpful. The indoor play structure is super big and spacious and has a toddler area too. A big kids track with basketball like area with soft balls is right next to play area and had some areas for adults to sit. Adults can chill upstairs in the lounge area too. Play area is gated. You have option to have staff lead the kids in a series of games at the track area which is great way to get the entire party together at end of play time which my daughter loved. Afterwards the kids line up n wash hands n everyone is led upstairs to the party room. The party room is like jungle safari theme decorated painted on the walls. Space is a bit tight/cramped but good air flow and fine. Staff will walk around serving the kids food which is great. Everyone can eat and enjoy without the adults spending time to serve and feed the kids. Afterwards we went down to arcade room and played and you get tickets and redeem for prize. Everyone was able to walk away with a prize which is perfect. Only downside is it gets hot. "Arcade area definitely needs a remodel with AC or at minimum very good fans. I would suggest the owners to highly consider this as it's a bit run down looking compared to the rest of the facility". But even if a remodel is not done, the arcade area is good as is. Maybe buying a few portable fans to hand out to the few guests who might overheat is good enough. Guests had so much fun !! and we got a lot compliments how well run everything was !! They have a food vendor which was perfect too. We plan to have our daughter's 7th bday here again this year as we can't find a better venue that can be so spacious and run so well. Definitely 5 stars. At end of the night, the staff loaded our car with gifts, leftover food. For us, the less work the better so we can actually enjoy the party while hosting. Thank you so much to all the staff and for leading that game time too.

    We've been here for camp, open play, and birthday parties. Always a clean play place!…read more This review is specifically for the summer camp. My daughter really enjoyed it. As a parent, a few things that I really liked about this camp: 1) they provide snack 2) they make sure the kids wash their hands 3) they have a drive thru pick up/ drop off system. Very easy and convenient. You show your ID to pick up your kid - very safe. 4) the kids did so many activities throughout the day. They would play games and do crafts and it seemed like the workers were very engaged with the kids 5) they share pictures with you at the end of the week. You can also find pictures on instagram each day Great place, highly recommend!

    This past weekend, I hosted my daughter's 3rd birthday party at Imagination City, and I honestly…read morecannot say enough wonderful things about our experience. From the moment we walked through the doors, the owner, Janine, was there for us in every way possible. When I say she was a big help, I truly mean it. Janine helped us set up everything -- the tables, food, backdrops, kids' snacks, and even a special Build-A-Bear-style station I created for my daughter. She also helped us set up our soda pop station and made sure everything looked great and ran smoothly. My family arrived late (Polynesian time, as always ), and I was so incredibly grateful that Janine was there helping us every step of the way. I honestly don't know what I would have done without her support. She went above and beyond -- helping cut and serve the cake, assisting our guests as they arrived, checking in on us constantly, and making sure everything stayed clean, organized, and stress-free. Most importantly, the kids had so much fun. The space is perfect for toddlers, and the joy on their faces made the day extra special. Janine, thank you, thank you, thank you. You are so kind, thoughtful, and truly passionate about what you do. I appreciate you more than words can say. Blessings to you and your business -- I pray you continue to have abundant, fruitful success throughout 2026 and beyond. Thank you again for hosting my daughter's birthday party and making it such a beautiful, memorable experience. We will definitely be back!

My daughter absolutely loved it and had a wonderful experience at Imagination City. All the kids who attended appeared to love it as well and the adults got to sit back and relax knowing the kids were preoccupied in the play area. The staff was incredible with assisting with sit-up. They also allowed us to drop-off items in advance to ease our burden on the day of the party. Everything was organized, clean, and in quality condition. The only negative is having to go offsite to use the bathroom. Other than that, we had no complaints and highly recommend having your kids birthday party at Imagination City!

It was clear that his top priorities were safety and all guests having fun. He worked with our schedule needs and the kids various interests. Our kids were nonstop running around, laughing, having a great time. And the best part as a party mom was that he frequently encouraged me to sit back and relax as he and his staffed had everything under control with the kids. The facility is clean and spacious. The gym has endless opportunity for fun and challenge. Our 10 year olds did not want to leave.

We came by on an afternoon during open gym - you pay a flat fee to get up to 4 hours of playtime. While there are some staff members present that might give a bit of guidance on how to go through the courses, it is relatively hands off and you are on your own. Parents can sit on the chairs on the side to watch, but can also go on the mat as needed to assist their kids. My son really enjoyed his experience here - when he started off, he could only go halfway up the warped wall but after a couple of hours of practice, was able to reach the top with his hand. He is already looking forward to his next visit here so he can try again. Everyone wears their outside shoes on the mat so I think that takes away a bit from the cleanliness of the place, especially on the type of rainy day that we came by. Bathrooms could have also been a bit better maintained - paper products were running low and soap ran out as well. Not a huge deal as we could work around this, just something that could be optimized for an even better experience.
