Maybe you can help. Museum question.
I want to take DD to a museum or aquarium, something fun this weekend. Can you give me any ideas?
She will be 5 years old next month.
Thanks!

www.licm.org is the website for the children's museum. It's great there. Packed on the weekends though.
I would skip Atlantis..I don't think it's worth the price in the winter when the outdoor attractions are closed.

I agree, LICM is great for her age. So many things to do. Their new exhibit "Contraptions A to Z" is really great - one of the best they've had in years!

There is the NY aquarium (brooklyn)- we go there frequently and I hear it is much better than atlantis. They even have a sea lion show (not sure if it is all year but they were doing it back in Feb when I brought my father and DD there.
The LICM is a great museum for kids.
I haven't been there but I have heard good things about the NY Hall of Science in Queens is supposed to be great.
What about the Bronx Zoo - if the weather is nice? We were there last week when it warmed up a bit. It is open year round and there were plenty of things to see and do.

I agree 100%. Children's museum was a blast - bring your own lunch though. All they have is vending machines. Aquarium is better in nice weather I agree. Although I was just there and had fun (and we had the whole place to ourselves I might add) it was too cold to go outside. Both times I went in March so I didn't even know what I was missing, lol.
