Free & Cheap Activities for Babies & Toddlers in Kitsap County
Fun isn’t just for the older kids! Babies and toddlers can have it too! There are quite a few free or cheap activities for babies and toddlers in the Kitsap County area.
I’ve had a Pierce County list for many years on the blog, and decided to make one for the Kitsap County area too. So, if you have younger ones at home take a look at the list below. It’ll be separated by town/city, if you wanted to stay in a specific part of Kitsap County.
I’ll try keeping this post updated, but do check out the locations website to make sure hours are up to date. I’m hoping more activities will open up again come school starting in the fall.
