5th Birthday in NYC.

[Lilyrose]

It'll be our daughters 5th Birthday whilst we're in NYC, we've told her she can doing anything she wants. But being 4 she's no idea what NYC has to offer. So far I've suggested spending the day in Central Park, do the zoo, the carousel explore the play grounds etc.

But are there any must do's for a 5 year old? Places to eat etc?

Is she into dolls? The American Doll shop has a restaurant where you can eat with your doll!

Your ideas sound fab!

I would take her to Dylan's candy store & have a birthday treat in there.
They cater for birthdays & have all sorts of goodies in there.
My grandaughter loved it & if I remember rightly,it wasn't far from Central Park.
Just google it.

Dylan's candy bar does look like children heaven! It's perfectly placed to stop by on our way bvk to the hotel! Thank you for the suggestion.

American doll looks great too. I might try to squeeze that in another day, as she has a 7 year old sister and I think that'd be a nice treat for them both.

Was watching vanderpump rules,the other night ( the spinoff from real housewives of Beverly Hills) & they were in the one in L.A getting sweets for the wedding favours.
Apparently it's Ralph Lauren's daughter,that owns them Dylan Lauren.
My grandaughter loved the sweets in the stairs!
