Vero,
thanks for taking the time to put this list together. My husband and I used to visit New York City often when we were DINK's (Dual Income, No Kids). We've been wanting to take our three year old that...

a) loves to travel and has 2 trips to Europe to see Omi and Opa under his belt. 1 trip to Michigan to see great Grandma and trip Orlando to see Mickey Mouse. And...

b) on top of that he loves "big" cities. Now, big is a relative term considering he's only three and we live in the "metropolis" of Chesapeake VA (not!).

We think he'd love NYC but were worried about enough kid friendly things to fill up a few days. Given the size of your list, we'd need more than a few days to get through the list.

Thanks again.
