Your guide to activities and fun things to do with your preschoolers, toddlers and kids in Seattle, WA

You know the lyrics to the classic Supremes song..."Through the mirror of my mind, Time after time, I see reflections of you and me."

Reflections ARE all around us - in our homes, in puddles, in car windows. But, we're searching for the best place for reflections in Seattle, and we're pretty sure we've nailed it. (If I do say so myself!)

1. We may not be the land of a thousand lakes, but Seattle and the greater Puget Sound IS home to many bodies of water to find your reflections in. From Lake Washington and Lake Union to LakeTapps and Lake Whatcom, the water's there waiting to show you your reflection.

2. The Seattle Public Library's Main Branch is FULL of reflections. Check out this site for more specific information on where to find your reflections there.

3. There is plenty of glass and plenty of reflections to be found at Tacoma's Museum of Glass. While not representative reflections for the most part, it will make for an interesting exploration of body and space. 

4. Be on the lookout for CRAZY MIRRORS at your local children's museum. Most have a set of those wavy and crazy bent mirrors that make us all look pretty darn funny. Heck, our children's dentist office even has a set. My kids think they are hilarious. And they're right. 

5. Your own mirror! Have some fun with it - make some fun faces or outline your face/body with dry-erase pens. Talk about what a reflection looks like - why they are moving their right hand, but it looks like their left in the reflection and even how using a second mirror can show you the back of their head and back.
