OCTOBER 11, 2011

A handful of enterprising kids’ sites take the stress and the guesswork out of keeping little ones busy in the big city.

Mommy Poppins is everyone’s favorite nanny; written by local parents who love to seek out the coolest, off-the-beaten-track things to do with kids, the site shares activities that promise fun, educational experiences for the whole family, with an emphasis on free stuff, artsy activities, urban nature, exploring nooks and crannies, and grown-up events that are good for kids. Their 100 Things to do in NYC with Kids Before They Grow Up guide is a great place to start.

Daily Candy Kids decodes the city for little ones using the same fun, bite-sized format that works so well for savvy city grown-ups, with an emphasis on gee-whiz gadgets, adorable apparel and other covetable items in addition to cool ways to keep little ones busy.

Urban Baby Local takes the guesswork out of finding kids’ events in town. NYCkidsARTS provides listings of local arts and cultural events with creative young minds in mind. Time Out NY Kids gives kid stuff the Time Out treatment. Nickelodeon’s ParentsConnect site offers regularly-updated local guides for kids in the city. For visitors, travel site Ciao Bambino provides info on family-and baby-friendly hotels, resorts and activities for on-the-go parents.
