Before their first visit to Mar Vista parents will sometimes
ask us what will my children do without television?

At Mar Vista children are free to turn on their imaginations, they entertain themselves, they change from passive to active and interact in very simple ways with nature, with each other, and with their parents!

Could it be that children are overwhelmed and intimidated by too many choices these days? Could it be that simple adventures like exploring the creek looking for slimy banana slugs, or building a sandcastle on the beach is comforting to a child who lives in a stressful, complicated world of beeps and boops, homework and fierce competition. Could it be that children need a rest too!
