Written by a long-time Washingtonian, DC With Kids engages children with its Fun Facts, whimsical illustrations and playful icons. DC With Kids aids parents by providing important planning tips.

Features: 250 attractions, hundreds of photos and illustrations.

*Top attractions. Since you cant do it all in one visit, see our picks for those with limited time.
*Plan Ahead. These essential tips prevent you from being disappointed whether you want a White House tour or a hands-on session at Spark!Lab, National Museum of American History.
*By Ages. Your four year-old is whining, your fourth grader is bored and your teenager wants to know why he had to come on this trip. Stop the insurrection by finding attractions that engage each group.
* Fun Facts. Kids (and adults) love odd facts. Such tidbits are great for starting conversation with your kids and for getting them interested in exhibits. What was the strangest package ever sent? (a 4 year-old girl.) Find out who sent her and why in our National Postal Museum write-up.
*Play Outdoors. Have fun paddling, biking, walking, riding carousels or horses, strolling gardens, cheering teams, playing golf and ice skating.
* Favorites. Create your own itinerary by listing what you want to see.
*Eat. Discover the best cupcakes, pizza, burgers, food trucks as well as restaurants for more leisurely dinners.
*More. Been there, done that? Repeat visitors as well as locals find additional attractions and experiences.
* Free. Many of DCs top attractions are free. Use this icon to identify the budget-stretchers.
*Side Trips. Have an extra day or even an afternoon? Consider visiting George Washingtons estate Mount Vernon, the Civil War battle site Antietam or nearby Annapolis or Baltimore.
*Sleep. A hotel with a pool is always a bonus for families so weve listed these as well as additional family-friendly lodgings.
*Map. Every entry has Metro directions and a fully interactive map that connects your location to your destination.
*Add a comment. We welcome your comments.

Customer Reviews

great app gets even better (5 stars)
This is a great app that just keeps getting better. We followed the advice to go to the National Arboretum to see the cherry blossoms with fewer crowds than at the Tidal Basin. That made the visit much more enjoyable for my four year old.
