Olympia, Washington, is a thriving little metropolis on the West Coast with a warm community and a thriving learning environment. Once one of the trusted national moving companies has finished helping you settle in, you and the family may want to explore and engage in fun knowledge-filled activities. Here are a couple sights that you should add to your itinerary.
Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge
Taking a trip to the Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge sets your family up with a great place to see lots of native Northwestern animals in their habitats. During your visit, you'll have a chance to see beavers make their dams, river otters snacking and swimming and Pacific tree frogs climbing and hopping about. The sanctuary is also home to endangered species that find their haven at Nisqually, like the peregrine falcon and the Coho salmon. You can also get involved by volunteering to help preserve the land or educate others.
Hands On Children's Museum
The Hands On Children's Museum is dedicated to fostering a love for learning in little ones. The museum has a slew of indoor and outdoor interactive exhibits. They'll learn about Olympia's forests as they climb and slide on the playground, and understand what firemen do at the ‘Emergency!’ exhibit. The museum also strives to cultivate a passion for creativity with its Arts and Parts Studio, where your children can color and create in the free-form area as well as the Enhanced Recycled Art Creation Station.
