12 Secret Gardens for Seattle-Area Kids and Families

The West Seattle Bee Garden is a must-visit destination if your kids are curious about honeybees, especially if you want to observe the buzzers from a safe distance. The centerpiece of the park is two hives nestled within an enclosure. The enclosure is covered in hexagonal panels that display fascinating bee facts.

This honeycomb-style structure is located in a community P-Patch garden, adjacent to a playground and a large community green space. Be sure to take the short walk a few blocks away to Southwest Raymond Street and 31st Avenue Southwest where Viewpoint Park affords an amazing panorama of the Seattle skyline.
