This Month’s Issue

Warmer weather is taking its sweet time arriving in the PNW this year, which means we have big expectations of May! In this month’s feature, we take the issue of the "default parent" and how to share the load of parenting. We also have a powerful and poignant essay about loss and healing. 

On the lighter side, our May issue offers lots of ways to have fun! From flower farms, to an exploration of Vashon Island and so much more on our monthly Play List.  

But wait, there’s more — much more! Each year we deliver our May issue with a bonus annual Summer Family Adventure Guide, which is chock-full of terrific ideas for delightful warm(er)-weather outings, including great family rides along the Burke-Gilman trail, adventures on Washington rives and a family guide to clamming — oh, my!). Get to plannin’!
