Given the number of dating questions we receive in Got Plans?, we wondered if it might be time to separate the men from the boys. We'd like to give parents, caregivers and occasional babysitters their own forum. Got plans with kids? Great. Need plans? Just ask. Our group specializes in local dining, museum, sports and recreations, day trips, children's theaters and the special events that keep life in metropolitan Washington interesting.
We're happy to answer questions, but we need to hear from you. Tell us about your favorite public swimming pool, a movie that wowed your child, a toy shop with a "do touch" policy, or a restaurant where pizza is as welcome on the floor as it is on the plate. This is an hour for kids of all ages: So if you have teenagers who need a night out without you -- or vice versa -- ask away. Together we can fill our calendars with memorable activities.
Our "With Kids" editor hosts each discussion, but the entire group will be sitting at the kids' table. We're looking to build our areas of expertise, and no one knows the entertainment needs of your children like you do. If you need more ideas, see KidsPost and the Entertainment Guide.
