    • She'll have fun with your ds, so it doesn't really matter. FAO, Zoo... And take her shopping (Soho) without ds. Maybe Ellen's Stardust, if she's into that.

      • take her on the Beast that's the speed boat on the westside by the circle line it is really fun 5 year old will love it to. they squirt you with water guns, water balloons and play cool music, the boat goes fast and you get sprayed with water it circles the statue of liberty and then goes back all in all about a good 1/2 hour 45 min. of pure joy.

    • Maybe a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge? Do things she may see in movies--definitely take the subway. See the original Winnie the Pooh animals at the New York Public Library (check the website--they've been moved); Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum . . .(throw in the armor section for your son). Walk by Tiffanys--everywhere has bowling, but no place else is New York City.

      • brooklyn bridge is always a good idea then you can hit the south street sea port for lunch/dinner at harbor lights the rest. in the mall with the most incredible views of the river and three or four bridges.

      • maybe take a row boat ride in central park at the boathouse it's $10 bucks for an hour and it's really beautiful with incredible views. Poet's Walk, Bethesda Fountain all great photo ops as well.

        • oh get over yourself...so for history when ppl used horses to get around they were abusing animals? Fine just don't go on a carriage ride but I enjoy them
