Things to do with baby when weather is blah

I am a first time mommy and would like ideas of what to do when I want to get out of the house with baby for a change of scenery.   I moved to Seattle 3 years ago from the midwest..so there may be things here that I may not know about yet!  I love going for walks outside but there are days when the weather is not pleasant!

Walk around the mall

Rainy day zoo at Woodland Zoo(https://www.zoo.org/document.doc?id=115)

First Thursdays at the musuem (I know this tends to be very crowded)

Any other ideas?

    The libraries in our area have Infant Storytimes during the week. One library has it on Tuesday, one has it on Wednesday, and the other has it on Thursday.

    Where are you located?

    - Community play centers

    - Storytimes at various libraries and bookstores

    - Sign up for a class (SPARC, Gymboree, Little Gym, etc..)

    - Children's Museum

    - KidsQuest Museum

    - go to Bellevue Mall and stop by the top floor and let your kid run around in the play area

    - Twirl Cafe in Queen Anne

    We also moved from the midwest and we realized blah days here are much more managable when you are properly suited.  Get some rain boots for you and DC and a nice coat with a hood and you can still do a lot of the outdoor activities. 

    That being said, what area of town do you live in? 
    indoor pool hours
    community centery indoor play play
    Mall play play place
    Childrens museum

    I live in north seattle by Greenlake. 

     

    I did sign up my DS (6mos) for a parent/swim class! We start tomorrow!

     Thank you for the ideas!  Is there an alternative to Gymboree?  I think its very expensive!

     Is there a weekly play group in the north seattle area?

    Greenwood Library has baby storytime on Mondays.  Free play and learn groups all over.  Bitterlake CC, Broadview Library, Shoreline Children's Ctr (free playroom is open every weekday, 9-5).  Free First Thursdays at museums.  Free drop-in playgroup at Seattle Holistic Ctr Tuesdays and Wednesdays 12:30-2.  They have neat classes that are cheaper than Gymboree.  Birth and Beyond classes are also great.  Not sure if you BF, but La Leche League meets at the Good Shepherd Ctr.  FamilyWorks in Wallingford has a playgroup.  Or join Baby Peppers through PEPS.  Also a bunch of MeetUp groups for moms including Seattle SAHMs, Urban Adcentures, and Northend Moms on the Go.  Mosaic Coffee or Firehouse have free kids play areas.

    I collected a ton of daily activities on my old blog - if you click to the right on the days of the wee links.

    Blog is now on Facebook only, but with new (fun, cheap, free) ideas as they come up....
