Just as flowers blossom all over town in spring, so do great activities for New York City families. There's no reason to leave the Big Apple to get a taste of outdoor fun during the spring. We've got plenty of Easter-inspired fun from egg hunts to photo-ops with the Easter bunny, plus season-long fun in parks and playgrounds, places to see beautiful blooming buds, and nearby farms for fruit picking.

Spring culture in the city also kicks into high gear. There are great shows and awesome exhibits for kids. We hope your family has a chance to try all of the amazing NYC activities we've compiled in our Spring Fun Guide.
