Default DC with Kids in One Day

I am planning on a trip to Virginia with my Family but would like to see Washington DC in one day.

I am looking for recommendations that would entice two girls ages 10 and 6. My 10 year old has learned a lot in Social Studies and would like to see the sites. I will be there in August so it will be hot so some indoor stuff would be good. Where could I stay overnight outside DC for a good room rate and easy access to transportation for site seeing

I look forward to some great ideas and thank you in advance

If you look at the Washington DC page you will see a list of suggestions on places to visit in the city. The Family Vacation page is particularly helpful.

For historical and educational sites i would recommend a visit to the National Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of American History and the International Spy Museum.

If you are looking for a good room rate you can check out the discount hotels which DC has to offer and hopefully you will find something to suit your families needs.
