I'm taking my 8 year old grandaughter to NYC and to a Broadway show...her dream trip! Does anyone have any suggestions for other fun and age appropriate things to do with her apart from the most obvious and wonderful attractions such as the Empire State Building, etc.? Many thanks!

Most 8 year old girls are into American GIrl dolls- the store is on 5th Avenue! I also love the Central Park Zoo.

There are 100s of museums in NYC. Search out what you think would interest her. I love the Museum of Natural History and the Wax museum is very fun.
Carriage ride around Central Park

A lot depends on their age. The Bronx Zoo is good for most ages. Older kids might enjoy the Museum of Natural History and the Hayden Planetarium. Have fun.

Do a Google search. I'm sure there are hundreds of sites that have the information you are looking for.

Is it a day trip or overnight? If it is just a day trip, 8 year olds grow tired and bored quickly.
The places that have been mentioned, require a good deal of walking, the subway or cabs.
Our Grands prefer the Top of the Rock over the Empire State Building. American Girl is across the street and Broadway is a short walk.
They loved the Statue of Liberty.
The zoo is great but for an 8 year old, a zoo is a zoo and they are everywhere. I'd visit places that are unique to NYC.
