You and your kids will be amazed with the live butterflies, dinosaurs, live science shows, weather station, computer learning skills, the science of roller coasters and much, much, more. You can easily spend an entire day in the Science Center. On top of it, you can experience one of the IMAX films. The film is a large format movie projected on a huge 10-story screen. It’s like you’re right there sharing the adventure. We recommend that you purchase the membership. There are many benefits from doing so such as: admission to over 250 science museums. And you can get an additional membership to the Children's Museum, about a 5-minute walk from the Science Center. Check out their web site for further details Seattle Science Center. The Children's Museum…The Children's Museum offers all-year fun for the entire family. You have the opportunity to travel across cultures and through time. You and your kids will have fun with the many hands-on projects from painting, sculpturing, serving food at a restaurant to performing on stage. There’s always something to explore. If you're planning on visiting the Children's Museum, purchase the combined membership with the Science Center. You'll receive many benefits. For all the details visit The Children's Museum. What a fabulous Seattle attraction for everyone in the family! Washington State Ferries…This is one of Washington States top attractions and definitely a top Seattle attraction. The ferries are the second largest mass transit system in the state. It’s a unique mode of transportation, and a very beautiful way to get to your destination. If you'd like to take a ferryboat ride, try this. Purchase some fish-n-chips from one of the many fish bars located on the Seattle Waterfront, board a ferry boat and enjoy your unique dinner as you make your crossing across the spectacular Puget Sound. You can also purchase food items on-board too. To get more details visit Washington State Ferries. Tillicum Village…The Northwest Native American Culture awaits you at Tillicum Village. Located on Blake Island, a State Park, you’ll enjoy a fabulous view of Seattle and participate in an evening of food and entertainment. Tillicum Village hosts a typical Northwest Native American Cultural Show with a traditional salmon bake. This is a grand learning experience, one you'll never forget. We've taken our kids and they've enjoyed the festive atmosphere too. Visit Tillicum Village for all of the details. Seattle Space Needle…You cannot come to Seattle without visiting this Seattle attraction, the Space Needle. Hopefully your visit will occur on one of those spectacular days we have in the Northwest. If the skies are clear you'll have a magnificent 360° view. Bring your camera and start shooting. This is great for the entire family. Your kids will love the elevator ride as it zooms 520 feet above Seattle. If you’d like to grab something to eat, enjoy the revolving restaurant. You can eat and watch the breathtaking views change as the restaurant revolves around. You never get tired of seeing the same thing, the views are constantly changing. Get the latest and greatest updated news about the Space Needle right here. Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium…This Seattle attraction is actually located in Tacoma; however, if you’re in the area it's a must see. The zoo and aquarium are located at Point Defiance Park; a spectacular park nestled along the waters of Southern Puget Sound. The park offers some old growth trees, a logging village and early settlers fort. You can spend the day walking the park or bicycling the many paths throughout the park. We make regular visits to the zoo and aquarium. They have a spectacular tropical aquarium with a beach. It makes you feel like you’re in Tahiti. And of course, all of the fish from around the world. Kids love seeing the sharks, they swim right past you. (There's glass between you and the sharks so there are no concerns about getting bitten.) Check out this lovely park in Tacoma, visit Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium. The Museum Of Flight…Seattle's history was built around aircraft and the Museum of Flight does a fabulous job of telling the story. You’ll get a glimpse into Seattle past with a visit to the Boeing Building, the one that put Boeing on the map. And you'll experience the vast array of aircraft, from military and commercial to the experimental. The kids, and adults will enjoy visiting the replica control tower. If you visit the Flight Museum in August, during Seafair Week, you’ll have the unique opportunity to see up-close the Blue Angels. They usually perform annually for the Seafair Hydroplane Races. There's some spectacular flying to be seen with the Blue Angels. Check out the The Museum of Flight for all the details. Wildwaves…Add this Seattle attraction to your list...bring the kids to Wildwaves and enjoy! This, like most theme parks are a continuous joy for the entire family. If you're going to use the park more than once, you may want to consider purchasing a season pass. Check out the details here at Wild Waves. They are conveniently located off Interstate 5 in Federal Way. Enjoy! Experience Music Project…This is a NEW Seattle attraction to experience music first hand. Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft, was the inspiration behind this attraction. This is a state-of-the-art, interactive museum dedicated to American popular music. The entire family will enjoy the experience of making music in the Sound Lab. If you like music this is another must see in the Seattle area. Visit Experience Music Project and get the details.
