Things to do with Kids in NYC
Meko Rooks
As big & intimidating as New York City can seem, living in & traveling here with kids is awesome. The city has a lot of unique experiences that my kids love, and I also love doing with them!
Highlights of these activities include:
🎨 Interactive Children's Museums
🧑🎨 Arts & crafts activities
🧒 Places to play
🧑🍳 And even a cooking class!
Save this map for access to my (and my kids) favorite unique experiences in the city. These are great things to do between the other things you want to do in the city, to keep your kids happy. It includes activities in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, & even Coney Island! This is a living map, meaning that I'll keep adding to it as I find more fun activities - and you'll automatically get those updates!

📍Midtown
SPYSCAPE
@meko
This place has a lot of cool virtual reality stuff and things like laser tag. It might be for a little bit older kids, but I'm sure young kids could still have fun here.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Meko Rooks
Motherhood With No Limits🤱🏽 🛫
Hi! I'm a lifestyle blogger and social influencer. Being a native New Yorker has given me the ability to transition from the fast-paced city life to balancing a family while continuing to travel & explore. I have a passion for trying new foods, discovering underwater life, learning new cultures, and exploring different countries.
I'm born and raised in New York & have lived there for over 20 years now! I love traveling abroad with my kids (and without them), but when I'm home, I love exploring my City. My favorite things to do in NY are to look for new pop up activities. Depending on what season or holiday is happening, there's always a fun event going on. I also love rooftop bars & enjoying the city views.
I'm a foodie at heart so that's the number one thing I get asked for recommendations. Food & nightlife in the City. I also love to find a lot of fun unique activities for the kids because I love getting my kids out of the house to explore parks & indoor activities.
I've been featured in publications such as HuffPost, SkyScanner, Travel Noire, The Points Guy, & Seeker for my NYC & other travel expertise.
