August
August is typically known as the month before we close out the summer. However, it seems that the DMV has extended summer days and endless starry nights. When traveling to DC take the pressure off when packing and lugging your expensive baby equipment and count on Rent a Buggy for your rental needs!
Washington, DC is magical with countless free admissions for monumental experiences of unique pop-ups and events for the whole family to enjoy. Famous for our Smithsonian Museums and memorials you can explore the city on foot with endless views. While passing these iconic sites you’ll pass endless food trucks, splash parks, and innovative monthly activities for kids. Bring a little bathing suit for the kids and let them burn off that energy!
