Posting this so others will not have the same experience. On August 2, 2025, my husband and I took…read moremy adult niece and nephew as well as my BIL to Create It for an afternoon of ceramic painting. It was my niece's 20th birthday. Since my husband and I live out of state, the employees told us (and it is clearly posted) that they would ship our items. I received the items yesterday and the platter was broken. Unfortunately, it was shipped in a very flimsy box with little tape and padding. The package was not secure in any way. Obviously we were disappointed that our item did not arrive as we were looking forward to seeing it. I reached out to the business and asked for a manager or owner. I was told that the employee I was speaking to could handle my issue. After explaining the problem and asking for a refund of the cost of the platter and shipping, she told me she needed to speak with the owner and get back to me. When the employee returned my call she said the owner had insured my package for $100 through the carrier and I should just submit a claim to them. I told the employee since they had poorly packaged the ceramics, they should make the claim and in either case, refund the cost. I then received an email from the owner stating that they make no refunds on items shipped. Although most people reading this will not need to utilize shipping from Create It, I think it is important to note the over-all attitude towards customer service. In this case, it would not be difficult for the owner to do the right thing. I will make the claim, but doubt it will be refunded since it's obvious to anyone that this package was in no way packed appropriately.

That's what amazing businesses do - they make a difference! That being said, the music teachers are amazing, patient people who are there to guide the children and help them learn.

If you live in the area and are considering art or music for your child, try this place first.

I've seen a number of his works before at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, but several of the pieces on display today were new to me--such a treat to experience different works up close. The gift shop is small yet thoughtfully curated, featuring items inspired by the current exhibit along with creations by talented local artisans. Admission is very reasonable, and students receive discounted entry at just $10. Donations are also warmly welcomed and help support this wonderful community art space.

My friend and I stopped here on a whim one afternoon, seeing their food-themed art gallery. When I…read moreentered and asked about admission I was told entry is free, though they do also have a donation box. In addition to the small gallery of (mostly local) artists, they also had some art pieces for sale. I was impressed by the quality of the work and fell in love with several pieces on display. Most of the pieces were also for sale, though nothing I would consider inexpensive. It's art, so you'll have to decide how much you like something and if you want to purchase it. It also seems like non-local artists could display work here if they were a member of the center. Maybe I should look into it! Really nice place to stop for an hour or two. Highly recommend it.

When we were searching for daycare/preschool for our then 2-year-old, who needed stimulation than…read morewe or a nanny could provide, our priorities were cleanliness, a large outdoor area, and, most importantly, warm and caring teachers. Little Wildflowers exceeded our expectations. And their awareness of how parents feel entrusting their children to someone else was beyond what I had expected. Our son was in a phase of 'stranger danger' when we first met Ms. Maria, but he felt immediately comfortable with her, which was a sign for us. Initially, we wanted to start with just a few days a week and gradually increase, but thanks to the integration period at LWF, within a few weeks he was happily attending full days and loving it. Both Evelyn and Maria work incredibly hard and are true professionals. There have been weekends when my son wanted to go to LWF. Statements directly from my little one: Me: How was your day at school? LO: It was great, just great! Me: Do you like going to school? LO: Yes, I do! Me: What do you like about it? LO: I like my teachers and friends. He always comes home happy, and we are so thankful for LWF. They even helped potty train our son, something I expected to be much more challenging, but like everything else, Evelyn and Maria made that transition relatively effortless.

During a day and age where many of us just don't know what to believe - the best we can do no…read morematter our belief, is to keep ourselves and loved ones safe. Better to be safe than sorry right? Little Wildflowers Preschool has instilled this idea deep into their moral fiber so that you - the parent will know without a doubt that they are always doing everything in their power to keep your children and family safe. Safe from viruses, predators and/or all dangers alike. This private preschool is female owned and operated by two highly experienced individuals with over 10 years experience. They will give your children the highest level of education, care and LOVE while keeping their program fun and exciting for their developing minds. With a HUUUUUUUGGGEEE backyard for outdoor fun, exploration and exercise your kids will get the perfect balance of indoor/outdoor time. Anyone who is in process of looking for a preschool for your children I leave you with this advise. Read their school policies. Read about their covid policies. Ask them questions about these policies and their program and if you agree with it all then send your kids here - you wont regret it! On the other hand if you don't agree with any single policy at all, find a place that fits your views better because there is no leniency here for any parent who thinks they will come and challenge the school. Thank you Maria and Evelyn for building a safe and protected environment for the children!

The class that I was in was 25 minutes, and they make sure that its 25 minutes and not a second more. Dont get me wrong, you can really learn a lot from instructors if you show up and apply yourself. One recommendation for Finley would be to pull someone who is holding a class behind. Its not benefiting them in anyway and a lot of attention gets put on them leaving the rest standing(swimming) around alone. Implement a plan where someone can retake the first week of classes instead of allowing then to go on to week 2 when they're still struggling with week 1 assignments. Just be aware of this if you decide to sign up for any of their courses.

Lap Swim Hot Tip: I tried lap swim for the first time, and was quickly educated by another swimmer about one of the unwritten 'rules'; when sharing a lane, always let the swimmer in the lane know you are entering.
