NYC with Kids: Our 3-Day Itinerary + Tips and Tricks for visiting New York City with Teens and Tweens

Planning a trip to New York City with kids? In this episode of Travel with Kids, I'm sharing the exact itinerary from my recent NYC trip with my 13- and 11-year-olds!

We packed a LOT into just a few days in the city, including some of New York's most iconic sights, a Broadway show, amazing food, and a few experiences that were especially fun with tweens and teens.

In this episode, I'm walking you through our itinerary day by day, sharing what worked, what I'd recommend for families, and how I'd plan a first trip to NYC with older kids.

We'll talk about:

• Where we stayed and why the location worked so well for our trip

• Exploring Times Square and grabbing a classic New York slice at Joe's Pizza

• Seeing Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway

• Visiting the Statue of Liberty and what I'd recommend knowing before you go

• Riding the SeaGlass Carousel in Battery Park

• Visiting the 9/11 Memorial & Museum with older kids

• Exploring Chinatown

• Walking the Brooklyn Bridge and catching sunset from Pier 35
