Ideas for Grandparents’ Day!

If you’re looking for something to do with grandma today, or just something fun for your family besides watching the Seahawks (what now?), here is a list of ideas!

Second Sundays at Morse Wildlife Preserve

Don’t miss your chance to visit this special place! Morse Wildlife Preserve is a privately-owned nature preserve open to the public on special days throughout the year, including Second Sundays from April through October. Nice, unplugged outing! Note from SFM: It’s a flat boardwalk should be suitable for most grandparents.

It’s Washington State Fair time! Here is our guide to saving on your fair trip with a preview of what’s new for kids this year!

Note from SFM: Check out the Imagination Workshop. Air conditioned, benches to sit on, and kids can play all they want. If you’re fair going with the grandparents (or anyone who would rather have a sit down and relax time than get dizzy-I recommend it)! It’s 5.00/person, and it’s by the Red Gate. Check out the Fred Oldfield Center, too!

Tacoma/Spanaway
