Here’s a chance to catch a sneak preview of a new family movie — and discover a battle for the ages! Early Man, the latest film from Summit Entertainment, opens in theaters on Friday, February 16, and I have TEN “Admit Four” passes up for grabs to attend an advance screening on Saturday, February 10, at AMC Mazza Gallerie in Chevy Chase!

Skiing with my daughter on the local area slopes has been the favorite activity this winter.
Visiting the Steven Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum was a huge hit this winter.
My family’s favorite activity this winter has been our ski trip to WhiteTail. Beautiful place and lots for kids to do.
We loved the dinosaurs expo last weekend!!
Playing board games!
Not a very original activity – but after being cooped up in the condo more than usual, we love and grab any chance we can get to go to the playground and get our sillies out:) The first few cold days it seemed easier to just stay inside, but using those warm jackets, gloves, and bringing along a flashlight and running all over the playground in the evenings – even if the air is crisp – has been fun! We went to Kalorama Park playground last weekend and the lights from the neighborhood allowed us to play all the way up til’ bedtime!!!
Ice skating!
Loved the Artechouse…wanted to see it first sans kids, will take oldest most likely
Going to Glen Echo
Favorite activity has been the Museum of Natural History’s butterfly exhibition.
We loved going to Six Flags for their Christmas Town!
Mount Vernon by candlelight. They taught us barn dancing, and they had mulled cider and a camel out in the snow. The kids loved it.
Art explorers at National Gallery
Our favorite event happened just last weekend: MoComCon in Silver Spring

Ice skating is a winter must for us, on the not so cold days though.
We’ve been spending a lot of time at the library and indoor playgrounds, but would love to go to the movies!
We like to do to Disney world in the winter. But this year it was as cold there as it was here. 🙁
My family really liked the night we spontaneously drove to the Mall and ice skated near the sculpture garden on a night when hardly anybody was there. A little WOW moment.
Georgetown lights! My kids loved running around with everything glowing around them.
Playing on a snow covered beach over winter break. First time we ever had a snowball fight next to the ocean!
Playing in the snow for the first time with my four-year old twins! We moved to Maryland last year from Florida and they hadn’t experienced snow before. We love it!
Our favorite activity was Monster Jam. What a thrilling experience! We enjoyed watching all the amazing tricks.
We have rediscovered bowling!
