Thanks for your interest in our Family Fun Calendar! 

Here are a few tips for correctly submitting your event to the Family Fun Calendar:

  • Important! Prior to submitting your event, please do a search on our calendar to make sure we don’t already have it listed. We add many events ourselves, and frequently update events that occur year to year.
  • If your event recurs at the same time on additional dates, check the “Add recurrence” box to add daily, weekly or monthly recurrences that are all at the same time.
  • If your event recurs at different times on additional dates, check the “Add additional date” button.
  • To make changes to an event you’ve already submitted, email calendar@parentmap.com.

We aim to publish events within a few weeks of submission, depending on how far in advance they’re submitted. If your event is coming up soon and you don’t see it, email calendar@parentmap.com and we will make every effort to expedite publication.

Criteria for publication

We publish events and activities that are for kids and families and that take place in the greater Puget Sound area. We do publish events that are for adults only, but generally only if they’re workshops or informational events related to parenting and families, or fundraising events that benefit organizations who serve children and families.

We generally will publish no more than seven instances per week of any one organization’s events, though exceptions may be made.

We do not publish general notices that a school, organization or store is open for business or taking registrations. We do publish specific events such as a school open house or the grand opening of a museum.

Please note, we have deactivated our a separate Camps + Classes Calendar for camps and ongoing classes. We are sorry we are unable to continue this calendar and therefore we no longer publish multi-day camps and multi-session classes. If your camp or class occurs on a single day, or accepts drop-ins, you are welcome to submit it to our Family Fun Calendar.
