I haven't been here personally, but whenever we drive by, it's packed. Would recommend getting there early. Tickets required. Little Island is an award-winning public park, located in Hudson River Park, where all New Yorkers and visitors can experience nature and art in a unique urban oasis on the Hudson River. They sometimes have performances as well.

Urban Air Trampoline and Adventure Park
Fun place for kids.
Fun place to take the kids. It's a little pricey, especially if you need to go in with your child too. If your child makes friends easily, or can play on their own, you can let them go in on their own and wait in the food court area. The food there is expensive and limited, so plan to eat outside. Paulie Gees Pizza is right across the street and has yummy pizza slices.
