Discovery Pond Playground Opens at Nature Center

Yesterday, Tacoma's kids got their first crack at "Discovery Pond," a wonderful combination playground/nature exhibit outside the Tacoma Nature Center.

Discovery Pond
At 7 and 9, my kids still love to poke around inside the Nature Center, but they are getting a little bit old for the exhibits. Discovery Pond is the perfect addition for kids of all ages, but especially for school-aged kids who may have outgrown the smaller indoor space.

Hands on Children's Museum (Hands on Olympia)

The Hands on Children's Museum rocks. We should have checked it out years ago, but I seldom get further South than Lakewood, unless a ride magically appears the way it did yesterday morning when a friend called and suggested the field trip.
