I am so excited to introduce a fantastic, interactive New York book for kids: New York in Pajamarama. Not only that, but I actually did a book-related activity: a cityscape sponge printing art project. This is an unusual post for me.

Exploring New York City
New York City is a great place to raise kids! What Do We Do All Day? is primarily about activities for kids and families but the NYC archive posts is where you can get to know us and what kinds of things we like to do when we are not indoors! Join us as we explore all the city has to offer. In these archives you will find our visits to familiar landmarks as well as excursions to lesser known gems.

Weekend Snapshots {Christmas Tree}
This was get-the-tree weekend and I have to photos to prove it. We live in the city without a car and therefore do not drive to an idyllic tree farm, cut our own tree, tie it to the top of the car and drive home with fingers crossed it doesn’t fall on to the highway….
