Looking for activities that the kids will really enjoy in New York? There are many of fun things to do just spending the day in Central Park. There is always a trip to FAO Schwarz for a chance to play with some great toys. There are plenty of zoos and museums that they will enjoy. However, there are some special events for kids to be apart of.
The Children’s Museum of Manhattan is a great place to go and explore with the kids. This is a great interactive museum where the kids get a chance to not just see things happen but to make things happen. Their imaginations are ignited by touching and moving many of the exhibits themselves. The museum focuses on lots of different cultures to be shared by many different kinds of people from all over the world. Kids will not only interact with the exhibits they will play and interact with each other. They offer many classes of experience and learning for the young and the old. They host many artists of all mediums to interact and teach. They encourage mingling with kids from around the world in the comfort of some of their favorite characters like Dora and Diego.
Take a little trip away from the NY hotel and head to Brooklyn for chance to see a childhood classic performed by puppets at The Puppetworks theatre. Jack and the Bean Stock, Beauty and the Beast and Little Red Riding hood are just a few of the wonderful shows put on by really talented puppeteers. Though the store front of this theatre is small and quaint the history of this company is deep and rich. It was created by Nicolas Coppola who started puppeteering at a young age got his first chance to perform in 1954 at the age of 19. He went on to perform routines for injured troops at the army hospital. Coppola ended up becoming the head of his favorite puppet company the Suzari Marionettes which eventually became Nicolo Marionettes and then Puppetworks. The whole city of New York embraced his talents and it lives on today .
