Coolest Spot To Get COVID Vaccine- American Museum of Natural History

American Museum of Natural HistoryWhen the COVID-19 vaccine first became available, I was lucky to qualify for it early on due to being a teacher. It was still hard to find appointments and I had to go to another borough in NYC for my shots.

After Lucas picked out his costume at the store, Kim got crafty and made us ours.

This year I am really excited for Halloween since we’ll be doing something quite different from what we’ve ever done before. Continue reading Spend Halloween in NYC at the American Museum of Natural History

Earlier in the year I wrote about Museum Sleepovers For Kids of All Ages,  based on a USA Today article.

Museum sleepovers sound like a really fun event to take part in. You get to visit the museum with a much smaller crowd and do some fun kid-related activities after-hours. I’d love to experience one of these sleepovers with Lucas someday however the prices seem a bit steep… Continue reading A Kid Free Museum Sleepover
