Seattle has a lot to offer when it comes to having fun and going out with your family. This is because of the wide array of recreational and attraction spots in the glorious Emerald City where an entire family can experience, play, learn and sight-see together.
We’ve put together a list of some of the very best family-friendly spots in Seattle, from cultural centers and dedicated art galleries, to beautiful lakes and urban parks for fun outdoor activities.
Seattle Center
If you’ve planned a small trip to Seattle, and your family is longing for some fun-filled family time, then take them to Seattle Center. The park is filled with greenery with pathways which will lead you to the public art, kids’ playground, the ever-famous Dupen Fountain (for your ‘splash-ial’ needs!), skate park, and food trucks to cater to your hunger.
Seattle Aquarium
A collection of colorful aquatic specimen awaits you at the Seattle Aquarium, which is located at Pier 59. The aquarium includes marine mammals, coral reefs, fishes, and a state-of-the-art touch pool that allows your kids to get hands-on experience with petting the fishes. It also offers an incredible 20×40-ft. window viewing spot, in addition to a viewing dome located underwater where you’re able to see sharks, rockfishes and large sturgeons just swimming about.
The Seattle Great Wheel
If you wish to capture memorable aerial shots of Seattle, then take your family on this enormous 175-feet Ferris wheel. Located at Pier 57, this wheel features gondolas that take you and your family up for 3 turns so that you get plenty of time to take in the beauty of the Emerald City.
The Seattle Museum of Pop Culture
Take your family on to a magical trip back in time to witness the history of pop culture in the good ol’ USA, with all of the legendary artifacts under one giant roof.
The museum is dedicated to everything pop culture, from television to music. You’ll get hands-on experience as you channel your inner DJ at the Sound Lab or you may spend time admiring the life-size busts of your favorite videogame and Star Wars characters. It’s located just adjacent to the Seattle Space Needle.
Seattle Children’s Theatre
If you want your children to appreciate the art of cinema and theatre then there’s no other place better to take them than the Seattle Children’s Theatre. It’s the regional theatre for younger audiences. The theatre regularly features plays in front of packed audiences of all ages, which makes it a great place for your children to be entertained by performers of their own age group.
