At number four on our list of kid friendly things to do in NYC this weekend we have something for our sports fans and those who enjoy a more active approach to fun, there is always the option of doing something athletic with the kids. Depending on the season, there are different options for indoor and outdoor activities that will get your whole family up and moving.
Batting Cages
Why not get a head start on practicing for the upcoming season at one of NYC’s many batting cages? This is a great option for little kids, since they can’t really hurt themselves or lose the ball, no matter how hard they may try. It’s also great for parents who don’t want to have to stare into the sun all day or constantly retrieve a stray ball.
Isn’t ice skating for winter time? Fortunately, the folks over at Chelsea Piers believe ice skating is a year-round activity, and one that can be enjoyed indoors. Bring the gang down to rent some skates and cut some pretty circles into the ice.
If you’re a big sports fan, there is no shortage of sports teams to cheer on in New York City. From soccer to football and baseball, there is a team to see. If you’re a baseball fan, you can even schedule a super cool behind-the-scenes stadium tour for teams like the Yankees. This is sure to be a hit with kids and parents alike, and is definitely one of the best kid friendly things to do in NYC this weekend.
