Have your children ever been news anchors or starred in music videos? Made a gargoyle at a medieval workshop or gone on an art museum scavenger hunt? Been inside a termite mound or a mole tunnel? These are just a few of the 400-plus activities in this kaleidoscopic guide to great times with kids in the Washington area - an extraordinary resource for parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, teachers and others seeking to delight and enlighten their charges.

Hello. If you're holding this book, you probably have have a child, either a recent or somewhat older model. Maybe you have several. Or perhaps you're a grandparent, an aunt or uncle, a teacher or someone else who is responsible at times for shepherding other people's children. Regardless, you're probably hoping to find worth-while things to do in the Washington area that will excite and engage the kids yet leave your sanity intact or - who knows? perhaps even enhanced.
You've come to the right place. The two of us have spent the last several years checking out hundreds of area attractions with our own and others' children. We've toured the town on solo missions, with spouses and with day care, school and other merry groups. We've done it with infants and teenagers, occasionally at the same time. We present our labors here - the best of things to do with kids, along with the information we suspect you'll find most useful in preparing for visits of your own.
John F. Kelly was the editor of The Washington Post Weekend section for four years before becoming a Nieman fellow at Harvard University. Craig Stoltz is editor of the Post's Travel Section. They checked out hundreds of attractions for this book with their own families as well as with daycare, school and other groups.
