🌲 Blooma Tree Experts (Seattle)
Blooma Tree is locally owned & operated and has served the Greater Seattle Area for over 20 years, specializing in tree pruning, tree healthcare, tree removals, large hedges, and more.
Whether it’s fine pruning your favorite trees, safety & risk mitigation pruning on large conifers, or removing hazard trees, finding a trustworthy arborist is the first step.
Their ISA-Certified Arborists do not work on commission (very common in the industry), so they can focus solely on providing thoughtful guidance about what is best for each tree.
If you're interested in schedule a complimentary consultation with an ISA-Certified Arborist, shoot them an email at [email protected] or call 206-714-9835.

Free stuff
📚 Seattle Public Library - Central Branch (Seattle)
The Seattle Central Library is an amazing free outing for kids — the building itself feels like an adventure, with giant glass walls, wild red-painted floors, and a spiraling book ramp that winds through multiple floors.
Kids will love exploring it like a maze. The Children's Center is the heart of the visit, stocked with picture books, Legos, Magna-Tiles, a craft area, and tactile toys to keep little ones busy for hours. Drop into a free Story Time
Paid
✈️ iFly (Tukwila)
Price: $79+
Ages: 3+
iFLY Indoor Skydiving - Instead of jumping out of a plane, you’re floating in a vertical wind tunnel that feels like real freefall but with an instructor right next to you, so no panic induced life choices required.
It’s safe for kids as young as 3, surprisingly beginner friendly, and one of those rare activities where both kids and parents are equally entertained.
Dining
🍨 Nutty Squirrel Gelato (Seattle)
If you want a guaranteed family pleaser, Nutty Squirrel Gelato is one of those easy wins. Their gelato is made fresh in small batches with high quality ingredients, so it’s noticeably richer, smoother, and more flavorful than your average scoop.
What makes it great for families: rotating flavors. You’ll get the classics like chocolate and pistachio, but also fun seasonal options.
