Symbols and Traditions

Hi! My name is Zoe, and I am 8 years old. I want to tell you about my trip to Washington, D.C. It was so fun! One of the coolest things I did was visit the White House. Joe Biden is famous because he is the President of the United States, and he lives there!

The White House is a big, white building with lots of rooms. We didn't get to go inside, but we saw it from the outside and took a lot of pictures. There were so many people there, all excited to see where the President lives.

We also went to the National Museum of American History. They have a special exhibit about U.S. Presidents. I learned a lot about Joe Biden and other Presidents too. Did you know Joe Biden has two dogs named Champ and Major? They are so cute!

Washington, D.C. has so many cool places to see, and I want to go back again one day. If you ever get the chance to visit, you should definitely go see the White House and the museums. It's amazing!
