Fodor's Washington, D.C. with Kids, 3rd Edition

I ordered this book to help plan a trip to Dc for my family. I was excellent. This book was also passed to our high school principal who used this book for a personnel trip to DC. This was his favorite book to use for learning about DC. I found this book VERY valuable and will be used for future trips to the area.

I found that this book was an interesting and direct source of information that helped me to find places to visit as well as how to get there. It is a wealth of information for where to take kids of all ages that would be of interest to them in Washington, D.C. I found it helpful also to know the phone numbers to be able to call about questions that I might have before visiting the places. I would highly recommend this book to anyone such as teachers or parents who are interested in taking kids to the Washington,D.C. area.

While this is a great guide for parents, it is particularly helpful for those who may not have children at these ages. An Aunt, Grandmother, family friend who wants to spend time with children but doesn't know where to start and may not have a crew of friends with children needs this book. It can be the beginning of really great time with and for the children and adults together.

This book is great for anyone of any age visiting D.C. Though we are lifelong natives, there were still sites in this book we had never heard of. When we used the guide to visit Washington with our teenagers, it was invaluable in giving us interesting places to go to suit everyone's needs. And since teens need lots of food, it was wonderful to have nearby food sources listed as well! I highly recommend this book for visitors AND Washingtonians!
