Free Indoor Play Areas in Seattle - Updated October 2010

Kids Cove at Bellevue Square – although it is in Bellevue instead of Seattle, this incredible play area is well worth the trip. Ideal for infants to preschoolers, it has numerous climbing structures (all well-padded) and a fun and playful theme throughout. It is a huge space that is walled in with seating all around the outside for parents, stroller parking and an unbelievable array of climbing structures and play equipment. There is a children’s barbershop next door and a Gymboree facing it. Combined with the fact that it is located in one of the nicest malls in the US, this place is a winner on all counts. http://www.bellevuesquare.com/whats_new.php
