An indoor food and shopping arcade in a historic factory building, where families can graze on pizza, gelato and more. It hosts seasonal events such as Halloween trick-or-treating with free face painting.
Home to an indoor pool plus the neighboring outdoor summer pool on Carmine Street. Children who hold a free youth membership can drop in for gym time, games, and supervised activities, and the center runs seasonal kids' classes and after-school programs.
Drop-in class space for babies through preschoolers where caregivers and kids join music, art, sensory play, dance, mini soccer, cooking, sign language and movement sessions. It also runs a gentle-separation preschool prep program and a morning summer camp for 2-3 year olds.
A day camp for ages 3.5-12 mixing basketball, soccer, capture the flag, arts and crafts, STEM and yoga, plus swimming and field trips. Theme weeks and special events round out the summer.
An outdoor sky deck jutting out from the 100th floor of 30 Hudson Yards, where kids can stand on a glass floor looking straight down 1,100 feet. Angled glass walls and a set of indoor light-and-mirror installations make it a good pick in any weather.
