I am moving!!

Ive decided to migrate my blog to WordPress.  I like the cleaner site and the ability to update on the fly. The correct address for the new address is http://wp.me/2bJzA, you can search for me using the same name: Fun on a Dime WA or www.funonadimewa.wordpress.com

Welcome and I hope you continue to enjoy the same great fun around the Puget Sound area and maybe we will run into each other.

Pier Peer in Pierce County

On March 24th, bring your family and join up for an aquatic night-time adventure as you explore hundreds of mysterious marine life forms below the docks with experienced naturalists. Warm-up at the end of the evening with hot cocoa. While Im kind of bummed that this is for ages 8+, I understand.  This is a night/evening peer into all that is cool under the water at Foss Waterway Seaport.  This looks like a ton of fun!  Hope you guys can make it!

Each child requires one adult companion. Please dress for the weather; piers can be slippery. Life jackets are supplied and MUST be worn at all times when on the pier.

For ages 8+. Please call or click here to register. (Pre-registration is REQUIRED!)

Story Hour at the Conservatory

On Wednesday March 14th, from 11am-12pm, join a storyteller at the Seymour Botanical Conservatory in Wright Park for a story and science project.  The story is One Leaf Rides the Wind.  You can make wind art and learn about the science of weather and plants .

This is a FREE event and is a great way to get out of the house, and stay out of the rain, for an educational afternoon.  If the sun is shining, pack a lunch and head over the newly revamped play area in Wright Park.
