I have a simple DataGrid with a DataGridTextColumn in it. How do I add a Datepicker to my DataGridTextColumn?

As Nitesh said, use DataGridTemplateColumn

<DataGridTemplateColumn Header="Pick a Date">
    <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <TextBlock Text="{Binding myDate}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
    <DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <DatePicker SelectedDate="{Binding myDate}" />
        </DataTemplate>
    </DataGridTemplateColumn.CellEditingTemplate>
</DataGridTemplateColumn>
