Last year during Family Weekend, we didn’t want to deal with the crowds on the day of the football game, so we took the metro into DC and spent the day at Smithsonian museums with our son. They have some nice cafeteria-style restaurants in the museums (esp. National Gallery; also like the one in Natural History), so it made for an easy day with lots of time to talk. You could do that on any weekend of course, but since on Family Weekend a lot of their fellow students are doing stuff with their families anyway, it’s probably one of the better weekends to “steal” your child away from his/her friends and have some time together.
