Welcome, new subscribers from Fit4Mom's awesome Anniversary Bash yesterday!   

This week's e-newsletter features adventures in my favorite city. For many parents, venturing into New York City is daunting. But trust me, it's doable with or without the spouse! Just make a plan, pack lots of snacks, bring your sense of adventure, and enjoy the sights and sounds. Check out these ideas on what to do and where to go:

  • Marvel's Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. at Discovery Times Square - read a Macaroni Dad's review of this new exhibit featuring our favorite superheros.
  • American Museum of Natural History - find out what special exhibits are currently on display and learn more about the Discovery Room for kids in this Macaroni Kid review.
  • Be prepared to be in awe at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum. Read contributing writer Jennifer Bermejo's recent visit here and check out their new interactive submarine exhibit on August 5.
  • American Girl Place - this iconic store offers free and paid activities throughout the summer for children ages 8 and up. We've listed a number of them in This Week's Picks and Plan Ahead sections HERE.
  • Need more ideas to make the most of your NYC trip? Visit our sister Macaroni Kid sites throughout New York City HERE for local events and activities just for kids and families.
