Featured Seattle Arts and Music Activities

New Everett Theater (NET)
Lights! Camera! Action! Live children’s theater is always an exciting activity to share with your preschooler, and Seattle’s north end has one of the best! The New Everett Theater has historically been entertaining preschoolers since 1906, with a wonderful variety of live children’s theater performances.

Sponge Language School
Your preschooler can have wonderful culturally-rich experiences as they “soak up” a foreign language at Seattle’s Sponge School for children ages birth thru six years. Many learning studies show that the earlier a preschooler is creatively immersed into another culture, the easier a time they will have in the future with formal language instruction. The Sponge school offers preschoolers and their parents creative cultural and language activities taught by native world-language teachers.

Olympic Sculpture Park
Is it art? Is it a museum? Is it a park? Yes! It’s all three at the Seattle Art Museum’s Sculpture Park on  downtown Seattle's waterfront. Take your imaginative preschooler on an outdoor art walk to see 21 larger than life sculpture pieces built on nine landscaped acres.
