On cost: none of these listings carries a free tag in Washington DC's feed, so treat prices as check-the-listing — libraries and rec centres often run these at no cost, but the feed doesn't say so and we won't guess.
Rainy-day fallback: most of this age's listings in Washington DC run indoors at Capitol View Neighborhood Library, Chevy Chase Neighborhood Library, Cleveland Park Neighborhood Library — warm, dry, and built for short attention spans.
Your next stage: kids grow out of this age band fast — the preschool page for Washington DC picks up where this one leaves off.
The feed lists 86 dated listings for this age in the next 60 days, running Oct 7 to Nov 28 — the Coming up section is pulled straight from it.
It varies by program, and the page only says which is which where a listing's own words say so — the Good to know section names the drop-in and registration listings it found. When it doesn't say, the listing link is the place to check.
None of the current listings carries a free tag in the feed, so check each listing for its price — we don't mark anything free that the source doesn't.
