The Polar Vortex is apparently returning with a vengeance. There isn’t much planned so here are a few places to stay warm and indoors and  your bambino can still have fun.

Visit the Natural History Museum to see the dinosaurs before the exhibit closes for renovation. There is also a butterfly encounter that is a lot of fun to walk through. We went this weekend and our son loved watching the colorful butterflies fly around and even land on him.

Monkey Joes is sure to be a hit with your toddler (they have a separate play area for kids 3 and under) and bigger children with all the numerous inflatable toys to climb on and games to play.  23521 Overland Dr Suite120 Sterling, VA 20166 (703) 996-8300.

With two locations, Playseum is sure to keep your little ones entertained. The Playseum has various rooms, each with a theme: a pet store (with real animals), a grocery store (with shopping carts), a Dominos pizza area where kids can make pretend pizzas and so much more!
