Kids in Tow?

Kids in Tow?

Although summer brings beautiful, blue-sky days perfect for zoos, beaches, and parks, Seattle has plenty of gray, drizzly hours to fill in other months. Here are a few rainy-day destinations your wee one will enjoy.

Center for Wooden Boats: your kids can be skippers on an antique boat or Native American canoe.

Experience Music Project: unleash the musical prodigy within on the Sound Lab's state-of-the-art instruments.

Museum of History & Industry: find out what life was like for Seattle's earliest pioneers.

Pacific Science Center: moving dinosaurs, live small creatures, a butterfly room, lots of robots—and plenty of special exhibits.

Science Fiction Experience: kids can explore worlds in outer space—and their own imaginations.

The Children's Museum: plenty of colorful, educational interactivity to romp around in.

Tillicum Village: walk wooded trails, beach hike, view Native American arts and crafts, and enjoy a traditional salmon bake and costumed Native American performance on remote Blake Island.

Wing Luke Museum: marvel at kites, dragon puppets, and beautiful artwork, backdrops to educational segments on Asian historical contributions.
