Sometimes Halloween can be a scary time to let our little ones go out
and walk the streets. So, we are always looking for safe places that
they can go and still enjoy the fun of the holiday.
The following are a few places around the greater Seattle area that
you can take the little ones. All of these events are free and in a
safe environment. So, if any of these are near you then get the kids
dressed in their favorite costumes and head on out..
On the Saturday before Halloween, Oct
24, the Bellevue Art Museum is offering a free Halloween themed
hands-on art & craft event. It will give your children a reason
to get dressed up in their costumes and create their own spooky
decoration. The event runs from noon-3:00 pm.
One of the biggest
traditions for Halloween is for the kids to carve their
Jack-o-lantern. On this Sunday, Oct 25, Islandwood on Bainbridge
Island is free workshop where your children can carve their pumpkins
and get lessons from the staff. Their will also be plenty of other
activities, such as, face painting and games that will keep the
little one entertained. You will need to provide your own pumpkin and
carving tools. The event last from 1 pm- 4 pm.
Who says you need
to wait until it is dark out before trick-or-treating. If you are in
the Issaquah area they don't think you make the children wait that
long. Just get them dressed in their costumes and take them down to
1875 Poplar Way. There they will be able to get their early candy
fix, jump on trampolines, have snacks, and watch the Reptile Man. The
even runs from 2 pm-3 pm on Halloween.
It can get a
little to scary and dangerous out on the streets at night for your
little ones. So, Seattle's Children's Museum is offering an
alternative for the 10 & under crowd. They are welcome to
trick-or-treat, go on a scavenger hunt, play games, and more. The fun
begins at 4 pm on Halloween and last until 8 pm. The museum is
located at 305 Harrison St. at the bottom of Queen Anne Hill.
On Saturday, Oct
24, at 3 pm you can bring the little ones to Ray's Cafe where they
can get & carve a complimentary mini-pumpkin. They will be
provide with kid-friendly carving kits that they can use on the
covered, heated deck to make their Jack-o-lantern.
