Seattle Children’s Museum is located on the expansive campus of the Seattle Center. Imaginative plan and hands-on are the name of the game in this 22,000-square-foot museum. It was specifically designed for kids under ten, and of course, their families. The interactive museum follows the framework of The 40 Assets, which traces a developmental path for kids to grow into happy, healthy, compassionate adults. Cog City delves into the concepts of cause and effect, Global Village is culture-centric play, and Dunn Lumber Construction Zone lets kids participate in hands-on construction. There are seven other interactive play areas providing hours of educational fun. This museum pairs perfectly with a trip on the downtown Seattle Center Monorail.
