After we left Grand Central Station (sadly... the whisper tunnels were out of commission) we were wandering down by Radio City Music Hall and I am pretty sure we passed Alex and Toby! Very handsome boys!! <br /><br />Thanks again for the tunnels I can't wait to take kids to the city someday! <br />Jen Machttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051447555118530052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-75778249907216517562012-10-08T09:55:57.256-04:002012-10-08T09:55:57.256-04:00This is great - Thanks

Most museums offer discounts to students, etc, but often they have a big corporate sponsor who makes on night a week or month free (in this case, it's Target!). As an art lover, I feel your pain about museums. Fortunately, I'm in DC, where most are free!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13758956738414871038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-86395875530418850972012-08-28T03:21:03.181-04:002012-08-28T03:21:03.181-04:00The ball pit is always endless hours of fun in our...The ball pit is always endless hours of fun in our family. :)Modern Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10788808702205786662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28060897.post-74788296699273196252012-08-24T06:02:45.558-04:002012-08-24T06:02:45.558-04:00This is so great, thank you!

We went to Washington Square to play on the swings, rolled on the grass in Central park and ran around in circles in Battery park. We were surprised that so many parks wouldnt allow you on to the grass. We had planned to go to the Transit museum, on your suggestion, as my son also loves trains but apparently 8nights is not enough time to do everything in NYC. Thanks for this guide, not sure if we will return, there is too much to see in this world.

Also love The Metropolitan Museum, NY Aquarium and Coney Island, The Intrepid (now extra cool with the Space Shuttle!,) Ellis Island (and get the Jr. Ranger's booklet which, if you complete, you get a badge,) Brooklyn Boulders for rock climbing and bike paths (up the West Side to the Little Red Lighthouse is really flat and has lots of fun stops along the way!)
