Score: 21
Over at the New York Hall of Science you’re certainly going to find a million things you could do to entertain your child and have him or her learn about science and technology in a way that will have them excited about it all.
The location is open through the week, and there are even free hours on Friday and Sunday. There are always exhibits here, each more exciting than the next. There’s a science playground, and an Angry Birds universe where you can use a slingshot to propel a “bird,” Race handheld vehicles and more, or a Connected Worlds exhibit where kids can immerse themselves into an animated world where everything you do impacts the world around.
There are also dozens of events and even a 3D theater where kids can enjoy animated feature films. NY Sci also offers workshops where kids can learn to integrate technology into their work and more. Additionally, there are also several summer camps available.
