Central Park is one of New York City's best known landmarks, so visiting here with your family should be a shoe-in on your list of attractions to see. The park is home to several man-made lakes and ponds, walking and recreation trails, two ice-skating rinks, a wildlife sanctuary and many other natural amenities. Other must-see sights you can experience as a family include The Belvedere Castle, the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre, and the Central Park Zoo.
Get your tickets to a show at the Music Hall of Williamsburg, an intimate music and entertainment venue that accommodates around 550 people. The three story performance hall is similar to its Bowery Ballroom counterpart, boasting great sight lines and acoustics. Matisyahu, Sarah Bareilles, Ryan Bingham, The Donnas, Modest Mouse, MGMT, Citizen Cope, OK Go, Warren G and John Mayer have all graced the stage at TMHW.
