No costume venture is complete without a trip to Display & Costume. I think they have a rental department, but they mostly cater to people like me who enjoy cobbling together their own costumes from various parts. They most recently saved my butt this past New Year's Eve by carrying fake Uzis. (I attended a James Bond-themed party.) The toy guns looked real enough that only minor modifications had to be made. Best of all, the Uzis have an awesome rat-a-tat sound effect. (NOTE: Toys R Us and other toy stores do not carry any guns other than Nerf or "ray gun"-type guns anymore because kids apparently get shot up by cops that think they are carrying real guns. Also, there's some issue with morals and teaching kids that guns are bad or something like that...)
Display & Costume is definitely a one-stop shop and prices reflect that. Some things are cheap (fake Uzis) and others are not (fabric). They have a section in the back where you can buy fabric and assorted ribbons and other fabric novelties. Mostly, the store is a haven of accessories for almost any costume you can dream up. They also carry party supplies, including more unusual items like fake palm trees for your luau-themed parties. At Christmas, they have a whole room of elaborate Christmas decorations. Perhaps best of all, the store is located near the Northgate Mall, Pacific Fabrics, and Target, so you can always stop in at those other stores if you don't find everything you need!

Champs Karting is a great place to spend a couple hours. The racing is a lot of fun, and it's even better with a group of friends. Let your competitive side show! They have locations in South Seattle, Redmond, and soon to be re-opened in Mill Creek.

This place can be busy and loud but my family enjoys it. They have a big climbing structure for the smaller kids (I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old that both enjoy it). I find that my 2 year old can easily climb up into it whereas at other similar places (Illusionz, McDonalds) she might have some trouble. There are lots of games to interest even the small kids and I personally like the bulldozer-type games with the tokens. You can earn tickets to trade in for prizes. There seems to be plenty of parking and the prices are reasonable.

We had their magician perform for my son's 8th b-day recently. He was hysterical! He was so good with kids that age and the show was really great for the adults as well. He did magic AND juggling AND balloons. Most performers will only do one of those or charge you extra for the whole package.

This a great costume purchase and/or rental store on Roosevelt at about NE 71st St called Vintage Costumers that has all kinds of period clothing - it runs the gamut from old style European gowns and finery to Catholic school girl costumes. I've rented from them in the past. It's on the west side of Roosevelt just north of NE 70th so near the Whole Foods store.
The only drawback is since so many of the costumes are one of a kind you may not find what you want in the size you need.
