Washington D.C. offers families a wealth of activities, ranging from sightseeing along the National Mall to exploring the National Zoo, all of which is known collectively as the Smithsonian Institution. Families can treat themselves to a quick tour of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and witness on-site printing of the beloved greenbacks. Fine performance art at the Imagination Stage makes a nice diversion for children. Families should catch a guided tour of the Diplomatic Reception Rooms, hosted by the Department of State. Children over the age of 12 can pretend to be young U.S. diplomats in a Department of State activity. If time permits, everyone in the family might appreciate a side trip to the Six Flags Theme Park before heading home.
