She’s leaving today!
And she knows now.
Work for mama.
Back.
And, being the misfit I am, I’m not here to seek guest posts (I do love me some real-time, real-life blogging)—but purveyors of F.W.B. and lottsa distractions to bother the husband while we’re away.
- Any takers?
- Any NYC-with an eight year old tips?
- Any fave things or sights we should not miss?
- Any chance she wont see the musicals and run off to join the traveling shows?

April 11, 2014 at 1:18 amYou might want to be careful about whom you ask to distract your husband! π I have wanted to go to NYC with my daughter SOOOO badly for SOOOOO long. She’d bought tickets to Lady Gaga’s concert there and plane tickets for herself and her brother, then he got sick. I had a broken foot, so Dad agreed to go, but the TSA wouldn’t let us transfer the ticket in son’s name to Dad’s. π A last minute ticket was way more than we could swing right now, so she had to cancel. And I was in agony that we couldn’t make that trip together. I hope you guys have a FABULOUS time and I can’t wait to see the pics! I’ll be living vicariously through you!

Kate says
April 11, 2014 at 10:04 amGo to Serendipity for frozen hot chocolate. There might be a long wait, but it’s yummy! Since the weather will be nice, visit Central Park and check out FAO Schwartz. Lots of fun things to play with π For dinner, take her to Carmine’s for family style Italian that is delicious: http://www.carminesnyc.com/ Enjoy your trip!

As far as healthy food goes, you definitely have to check out Juice Press for juices/smoothies, Candle 79 for incredible healthy vegan food (if you’re into that), Buddakan is a SUPER fun restaurant, Peacefood Cafe, Jivamuktea Cafe…. and you’ve absolutely got to watch the sunset from the Hudson River on the west side π have an incredible trip with your little one!

April 12, 2014 at 2:58 pmI’ve traveled to and from NYC a total of 5 times in my lifetime, three with just my Mom and once with my whole family.
Take her to the MOMA, there is so much for even the littlest of people to be fascinated with there. The statue of liberty and ellis island is a great opportunity to talk about history — and if you buy tickets online you can skip the line.
Fifth avenue, the toy store there near the park is epic, and the park itself is not to be missed.
I’m a Broadway nerd, but they almost always have something playing that was originally a Disney movie.
Finally, Times Square. Have fun!
All my favourite trips to NYC have been with my Mom. Really great memories.

April 12, 2014 at 6:25 pmI think everyone in the world wants to experience Newyork, at least once their lives. I haven’t been myself, but definitely will someday. Have a great time π
