my favorite NYC summer morning combo: get a giant bagel sandwich from Tompkins Square Bagels in the East Village, then walk across the street and eat them on a park bench while watching the fancy, floofy city dogs romp around the off-leash dog run at Tompkins Square Park.
prospect park, ice cream from heaps if you are in brooklyn, dumbo's brooklyn bridge park, front st pizza. nyc i'd go to lanterne for candle making workshop and get noodle in chinatown after or nom wah dim sum (or noodles nearby). if there's anything specific, happy to chime in again but my brain does not remember names rn having left new york in march. lol. i remember there was a few places near e village has very nice stuff like durian coffee (2 cafes within the same 10 block radius). and you can get aura photos in chinatown at love letter nyc.
"Camp starts at different times in different locations for each kid...while others require closed toed shoes that can’t be crocs." Incredibly relatable. I had to explain to my 6.5 year old why Crocs weren't acceptable for one camp despite being closed toe.
The sprinklers atop the Natural history museum —with tables and space for adults and kids to hang out. You don’t need a ticket to the museum. It’s a relatively little known and fantastic public space in the city. (Get Shake Shack ( nearby ) to eat and bring bathing suits and towels for the kids)
