Entertaining 2 boys 12 & 14 y/o
My boss has tasked me with this request. The boys are very different..one kind of difficult. The difficult one is into sports and the other into arts and music.
They are coming in Saturday for one night. They want to separate them..
So I was thinking maybe taking one to a Met or Ranger game or Chelsea Piers..there's the ESPN zone, a ferry ride to The Statue or the Empire State Building.
I don't think there's enough time for a museum tour..
need some other ideas..
TIA!

where are the boys from? what are they used to doing?
where will they be staying when they're here...have they ever been to the city before?
there's the aquarium, Mars 2112, Top of the Rock, Empire State Building, Times Square,

Re: Entertaining 2 boys 12 & 14 y/o
they are from South Boston,. I think one of them has been here once. They are getting in at 2pm Saturday so now I think getting down to Battery park to take a Ferry may be too ambitious.
There's laser tag and the ESPN zone. There's also two little girls..I guess one of the adults can take them to the American Girl Store.
Hey maybe the Hawaiian Tropic Zone for the boys!

I know you said no museums, but just throwing it out there... the Bodies Exhibit. Some kids that age are totally into that. If not, there is the Seaport and those boat rides that zoom around really fast.

The WEax museum is quick to go through and might be a hit!
