1. Nurturing Pathways (per the instructors recommendation we are signed up for the Sat. a.m. Waddlers class, although Hunter is more standing than walking so we may go to the baby class a couple times and then transition into waddlers). Anyway, details about class, cost, etc. can be found at:

2. Library Storytime

5. Mall play areas - Bellevue Square Mall - this place is a hike/total trek, I know...but they have an awesome play area which is good to know (I had no idea until a friend mentioned this to me) I took Hunter once when already in area to meet up with friends. It is geared more towards walkers - kindergarten age but still fun.

Other fun places include Golden Gardens (more summer), Loyal Heights Community Center Events/Ballard Community Center (I believe these were both already mentioned).

I have heard this is a good Children's Museum. Again, it is a trek, but just fyi....

Red Tricycle is a good newsletter to sign up to receive (If you don't already) since it sends information about things happening locally.

Pumpkin Exploration @ Karin's House

Well, gulp, I was late. To be fair, we were late. Anna and I managed to turn a four block walk into a half an hour hilarious "power walk" with two nursing babes and some drizzle coming down, it was kind of funny when we finally reached our destination. It was music to my ears though when I heard the "hello" song drifting in from the play room. The activity today was exploring the guts of a pumpkin with wooden spoons. Otto was a fan. He seemed to want to eat all the seeds so it was a great thing when strawberries and bananas came along to distract him. We sang some songs and the babes ate pizzas and Evy broke all of our hearts with a little "bye-bye" that made me want to do anything but leave.
