This engaging space actively focuses on creating a vibrant community for young families in Tenleytown and Friendship Heights.

This D.C. public library, steps from the Tenleytown-AU metro stop on the Red Line, hosts multiple events for children of all ages daily. All scheduled activities, such as the Story Time series, are multipurpose, incorporating both physical energy and creativity to engage the mind and body simultaneously. Get tickets at the Children’s Desk, which starts distributing them an hour before the start of each event on a first-come, first-served basis. They regularly hold events for kids and it's always worth visiting their website or calling ahead to see what they are offering each week! 

Looking to spend the afternoon in Tenley Town? Surfside Tenleytown is less than half a mile away on foot up Wisconsin Avenue, and Hearst Recreation Center Playground is a ten minute walk from there and has great playgrounds for kids of all ages. Newark Park Playground is a short walk from there if you want to explore another playground. Millies Spring Valley is next to Newark Park and their food is always sure to please.
