Free play everyday at Cabin John Regional Park
Monday – Take advantage of Tots Playtime at Pinstripes in Georgetown. From 10am – 12pm most weekdays, ALL kids can bowl for just $5, and parents are free (limit 4 kids per adult)! Stay after for lunch — they have a kids menu and a pretty extensive main menu, too.
Tuesday – Go strawberry picking! The seasonal fruits are ripe and ready for gathering at several area farms — this recent post has a list of them. And I always recommend calling ahead to confirm the patches are open and good for PYO that day.
Wednesday – Take the kids to play amid the lovely wooded setting of Cabin John Regional Park. They can climb, swing, jump, slide, and run on the sprawling Adventure Playland. The Miniature Train is only open on weekends right now, but the playground alone has plenty to keep children happy. Bring along food for a picnic — there are several tables to eat on, or you can spread out a blanket in a nearby grassy area. Admission is free.
Thursday – Head to The Plaza at CityCenter for Kids Corner with MLK Library. The weekly program welcomes little ones for reading, singing, and fun with DC Public Library every Thursday at 10am. Admission is free.
Friday – Go on an artsy adventure to the National Portrait Gallery, where Open Studio Fridays welcome visitors to join in some creative fun, exploring a different art material each week with all kinds of projects. Drop in anytime from 1-4pm. Admission is free.
