This free Smithsonian tells American history through the actual objects behind it. See everything from the original Star-Spangled Banner and Lincoln’s top hat to Dorothy’s ruby slippers and Julia Child’s kitchen. For kids, there’s also Wonderplace, a hands-on play space for ages 0-6, and Spark!Lab, where kids ages 6–12 can invent and build. No tickets are required.
