October
October is pumpkin spice and apple cider season. During your visit to DC, take the pressure off packing extra and lugging your expensive baby equipment through the airport or stuffing your car. Count on Rent a Buggy for your rental needs!
Endless pumpkin patches and apple picking outside of the city. In the city, take advantage of free admissions to museums for monumental experiences, 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 infinite food trucks and seasonal activities for the little ones. Bring an extra outfit in case the little one gets a little messy on their exciting adventure in the city!!
