NYC Blizzard

By
After last week's blizzard, we took Jack to Central Park to go sledding for the first time. The snow was perfect and deep!

Jack loved the sledding part...and pretty much hated everything else: being pull back up the hill, waiting to sled again, standing in the snow...all were met with crying. Then smiles again when he was placed back in the sled.

The rides are categorized by height so it's easy to know what rides your kids can ride. Jack tried several rides: big trucks, bulldozers, leaping frogs, the monorail. He even drove a car! He had a really good time. Spence was a good sport as there wasn't much for him to do. Maybe next year. Justin felt right ...
