Seattle Kids Weekend Events: Oct. 17-19

 
 
Monster Bash - Children's Hosptial Fundraiser
 
 

This weekend, we have a great mix of fall activities and some fun halloweeny ones too. Consider: a popular pumpkin party with the animals, a rockin’ show full of shenanigans, a popular neighborhood festival, a family fun run with a Halloween twist, a fall festival with loads of farm fun and a spooktacular show for tots. If that’s not enough excitement, come in costume to the 6th Annual Monster Bash for Seattle Children’s Hospital (pictured). In addition to a hair-raising haunted house, pony rides and ghoulish games, there will be creepy crafts, pumpkin decorating, a costume contest, cake walk and two Recess Monkey performances.
