If you decide to vacation in the city in the summer, then a vacation with children in Seattle can well be limited to the local beaches, which are equipped with playgrounds and offer a lot of water activities for children. But there is plenty to keep your child busy in the city itself.
Seattle has a wide variety of entertainment for children. The Wild Vawes Water Park is open from May to October and features 28 hectares of water attractions. And the local Science Museum is open all year round. Here you can learn about everything from dinosaurs to today's cutting-edge technology. A central place for outings with and without children is the local oceanarium. Preschoolers will love the Children's Museum and the Aviation Museum.
Of course, such a large city can not do without its own zoo. The local one was organized back in 1899. Today it occupies more than 37 hectares, which are zoned by different ecosystems. More than a thousand plants and over 300 species of animals from all over the world are represented here.
If you enjoy spending an active holiday with your children, we recommend trying a flight in a wind tunnel. However, children must be at least three years old to participate. The Family Fun Center amusement park in Seattle is located just outside the city and features two fully equipped entertainment areas.
The largest and one of the most famous museums in Seattle is the Museum of Flight, located in a complex of old Boeing factory buildings. It houses 54 aircraft from different eras, including 20 models manufactured by Boeing.
