I visited the Imagination Station on an afternoon with my 13 month old…read more I was initially excited when I read the sign on the window, "Free coffee and Wifi"...two of my favorite things! When I walked in the door things got awkward. I was standing at the counter waiting to pay the entrance fee. Two women behind the desk were just chatting away with each other. Did they notice me? I didn't know. I questioned whether or not I was to pay. Maybe it is free here! Well eventually they noticed me and smiled but didn't greet me. So after waiting patiently for a few minutes and searching for a pricing chart that I never found I decided to walk in and meet my friend. The toys are very fun for infants through preschoolers. I had so much fun playing here with my baby! I like that they offer a wide variety of gross motor and fine motor skill toys and they have two areas that can be closed off to prevent your child from wandering too far away. Toward the front they have an eating area with tables and chairs. This is very useful when you need to take a break to breastfeed/eat/drink. We stayed for hours until it closed at 3, as we were leaving I flagged down an employee and payed $6. She was very relaxed and didn't seem to mind at all that we didn't pay as soon as we came in. Well worth the money! I will definitely be back.

When I explained my frustrations, the owner requested a conversation. When I called back, she decided she was too busy to answer the call I was returning. Don't waste your time looking for services here, they are not inclusive, they only want to serve children who don't have disabilities or difficulties.

Our family's experience with Tiny Notes movement and music was disappointing due to poor…read morecommunication and sudden changes that negatively affected our child's participation. Our child was forced out of the program with less than 14 days' notice, which was very upsetting. Before this, the ABA lead was switched without any prior warning or discussion. Before the new lead, Kevin, joined, there were no issues raised about our child or the program. However, once Kevin took over, communication became very restricted--we were limited to email only, and it was made mandatory for all parents to attend every meeting, which was difficult since my spouse is on sea duty . After Kevin joined, we noticed fewer families in the pick-up and drop-off lines, and the school atmosphere felt colder and less flexible. Overall, the changes made it hard for us to stay involved and left us feeling disconnected from the program.

I needed to pull back on all extra commitments for a while. I asked to pause my ongoing lessons and ...guess what? Because I can't take the lessons right now, I LOSE THEM, per company policy. $200 down the drain on these folks. This is terrible customer service and very bad business practice (if not illegal).

If you like good communication, go elsewhere! We were under Kate's (owner) teaching for almost a…read moreyear, I felt like she did a great job teaching and was safe, but the last couple months have been filled with last min cancellations on her end - literally an hour or two before the lesson would begin, I would get a text and then when it came to rescheduling, I wouldn't get a response and we would have to discuss it at the next lesson; she wouldn't say this, I would just have to bring it up. A couple of weeks ago, she claimed she was in over her head with OTHER responsibilities and would have to move lesson days. After I wanted more clarification and to find out what's actually going on, I wouldn't hear anything; no answer of my calls, no text back and no call back. Even when we wanted to discuss it in person she deliberately avoided us. After continually reaching out, she decided to send me an email late at night claiming she's dropping us. The way it was worded was quite rude and no apology on her end of the no communication. It's unfortunate because her teaching was great and my daughter loved the place and now is very upset. But coming from a business owner myself, it was extremely unprofessional and inconsiderate and could've been dealt with WAY better and differently. Sad we wasted almost a year here, but guess it's good to see the true colors of Kate and take our energy and money to a better place.

Andrea was our guide, and she gave us a perfect stretch of sizable time on the Skykomish. In the middle of the trip, we shored the raft, and Andrea set up a delicious lunch spread. The spread even accommodated my wife's dietary restrictions. We also had the opportunity to swim around in a crystal-clear pool of water that was behind the rock bar. You could go with the mega-sized outfit that probably gets more hits on Google, but I've dealt with those companies. They tend to rush people in and out, and see their operation as more of an amusement park. With Chinook, Shane and Andrea love what they do, and have decades of experience on the river.

I believe you can book the dinner separately if you choose. We went with the midday tour that included lunch. Really pleased to see this is still going as it has been a thing for almost 100 years! I had fond memories of this tour and thought it would be fun for my wife to experience it since she didn't grow up in the PacNW. Booked the tour along with some friends and Mother Nature smiled on us and gave us some spectacular weather. It's a bit of a drive from Seattle but well worth it. There are some fun diversions along the way if you want to stop and get some farm fresh eggs and vegetables too. The friendly guides will also explain to you why the water is a crazy cool shade of green. :) You'll definitely want reservations for this experience. Quintessential PacNW.

Did you know that about 20% of the electricity in Seattle comes from these dams? We were able to book a tour for the day after, but I recommended calling in advance as they also have the morning tour which includes lunch and seems to book much faster. We did that one a couple of years ago. There several hike trails, we did the one that ends by the water falls which was fairly easy. There are black bears around but we didn't run into any. There is also access to the water if you like to kayak or float. Oh and near the visitor center they have WiFi!

First thing I suggest is to make sure they are running the trains, their schedule is only on select days so it's worth it to check it out before heading over. Second, get there early! We got here right at opening and the line was already getting long. Though it moved pretty quickly once the trains started running. And finally bring the kids lol, our two year old did just fine and he had a blast! The trains are easy to sit on and once it gets going there's plenty for the little ones to see. They operate via donations so keep that in mind and support this awesome service!
