my plans for my summer vacation are falling apart.
i have off wednesday, thurs and friday next week and will probably turn to 3 day trips. i am by myself with the girls on wednesday,s o something easy like van saun park in paramus is likely. my aunt will join us thursday and friday.
any ideas?
we've done the norwalk aquarium, mystic ct, turtle back zoo, museum of natural history....
Re: day trip ideas for kids?
What about Stepping Stones Museum in Norwalk?
http://www.steppingstonesmuseum.org/If you are looking for fun in the sun Quassy is a good smaller amusement park and they have a lake and a water park. If you want to go let me know I can send you a link to discount tickets. I think 17 PP all day + 5.00 parking.

I really want to go to this lake.

NY Aquarium and Coney Island (are connected, can be done in one day)
Bronx Zo
there's a new "catskill game farm" place - i don't recall the name, but its in same location.
rent a cabana at splash down in the Bob the Builder section (aimed at young kids) for $79 weekday $99 weekend day
I 2nd STEPPING STONES in Norwalk. I went Sunday with my mom and Jack love it! We will be going back (we got in free with our membership from POK).
Children's Museum of Manhattan is on our list next.
One of the farms in Westchester/Putnam : Tilly Foster or Muscoot
What about a day at Jersey Shore? PointPleasant or Seaside can be done in a day from Rockland.
Turtle Back Zoo in West Orange, NJ
i second the shore! Point Pleasant or Seaside or if you just want the beach Sandy Hook.
We're planning on taking A to the Land of Make Believe in Hope, NJ on Friday. I haven't been since i was a kid but i hear great things & its pretty affordable.

I 2nd Turtleback Zoo in West Orange - far larger than Van Saun so, IMO better for a day trip.
Poughkeepsie Children's Museum is another option.
You could always come to Tarrytown/Sleepy Hollow and walk around town...there are about 5 great parks in a one mile radius, including a spray park
Canon 50D, Canon 50mm f/1.4, Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8, Speedlite 430EX II
we know turtle back, if if i do van saun on wednesday, i don't think we need another zoo - but i also want to look into millbrook for another time.
these are some great ideas!
