WASHINGTON, DC — A number of educational and historical institutions in the nation’s capital exist to educate visitors about topics all around the world: botany, history, science, American history and beyond.

And while most of them are temporarily closed because of the new coronavirus, a litany of them still have online educational tools that can be accessed at any time by anyone with an internet connection.

If your kids are getting antsy, and you’re looking to help them keep learning while they’re stuck at home, these tools just might do the trick.

Smithsonian

Smithsonian has an entire website dedicated to educational tools and games for children with offerings like games that challenge STEM skills, instructions for students to build their own robots and photo libraries that teach kids about the world’s animals.

Smithsonian Game Center

Smithsonian’s Game Center offers up even more STEM games and simulations for online play or download. According to the website, “Our games are designed with clear learning objectives, vetted by our team of curriculum experts, and are used by students around the world!”

American History Museum

The National Museum of American History has its own online learning portal, much like the Smithsonian. Its offerings are sorted by student age and include things like a study guide for the civics portion of the U.S. Naturalization Test, a whodunnit-type mystery game set in the Civil War and other guides, games and activities.

US Capitol and Union Station Live Stream
