Just wanted to bring closure to this thread. We took the Circulator Bus from the Washington Monument to the Jefferson Memorial. My family lingered here for about 1/2-hour, reading the inscriptions, taking pictures, and admiring the architecture. We were here about 10:30AM on a weekday, and almost had the place to ourselves. We then walked back to the Circulator bus stop. Overall, including walking and waiting for the bus, it took about an hour but could've been cut-down to much less if necessary.
What's the BEST way to get there with the least walking (with a toddler in tow)?

if you rent bikes (very fun for the 10+ kids) there is a path that leads around the tidal basin. There are a few spots we stopped at on that bike path and were able to get beautiful shots of the Jefferson monument with the water in front. I would recommend that location if the weather is decent. The MLK Memorial gives a beautiful clear shot. The bike path gives you more foliage around the memorial. Good luck!
