From great playgrounds to just playing
on the grass, children and Central Park go together like green eggs and ham!
There
are many fun sights for children of all ages to stay busy all day.
The larger-than-life Alice
in Wonderland bronze statue at the top of the boat pond was created for children to climb
and crawl all over it.
The Conservatory Water, better known as the boat pond, is
home to model boat enthusiasts.
Children are fascinated by the remote
control miniature craft, some of which are very elaborate.
Whoa, Nellie!
Since
1872, this Victorian carousel has delighted both children and adults.
Located at 64th Street, time-old favorites are cranked out on the calliope (music box) as you ride upon some of the oldest hand-carved horses in the world.
Let's go to the Zoo!
America's oldest public zoo has been newly remodeled and
features humane habitats for its magnificent menagerie.
A separate
children's zoo has recently re-opened and is a wonderful addition to this fun and exciting
area in the middle of Manhattan.
Set free from the old cages, residents here
are always willing
to oblige a few minutes from their busy schedules for the paparazzi!
