Rainy Day NYC

When the sky opens up, here's where to go.

Best for toddlers (1-4)

• Children's Museum of Manhattan — water tables, climbing brain.
• Brooklyn Children's Museum — sensory room is a lifesaver.

Best for big kids (5-10)

• Transit Museum — climb on subway cars.
• Liberty Science Center (NJ but worth it) — IMAX + touch tank.
• AMNH — dinosaurs never disappoint.

Sneaky picks

• Apple Store SoHo — yes really. Free, climate-controlled, kid-tested.
• The Met — Arms & Armor wing = knight obsession unlocked.
