Gymboree Play & Music has been fostering creativity and confidence in children ages 0-5 for over 40 years. Today there are over 700 locations in 30+ countries, making us the global leader in early childhood development programs. Designed by experts in both education and in play, our age-appropriate activities help develop the cognitive, physical and social skills of children as they play. Our programs are also recognized for their unique approach to parent involvement—which encourages participation in and understanding of each child’s development.
Gymborees story began in 1976 when Joan Barnes, a mother from Marin County, California, tried to find a safe, fun place featuring age-appropriate activities for parents and young children to play together. Unable to do so, she did what any innovative, entrepreneurial mom would; she started her own program!
We’ve been proudly inspiring parents and children ever since, and most recently Gymboree Play & Music has once again become our own standalone company "Gymbo Global Education Group", separate from Gymboree clothing. Back to our roots, so to speak, and looking ahead to a bright future! Lets Play it Forward.
