Water, Water Everywhere

If there’s one thing we know about kids, it’s that they love getting wet–especially on hot summer days! And as the days continue to heat up, we thought it would be no better time to introduce our guide to watery fun in the city, filled with tons of great ideas for kids, from playground spray showers to fishing off of Coney Island’s Steeplechase Pier to sailing and kayaking lessons on the Hudson. — For some inspiration and spectacular vistas, check out Opening Day In New York Harbor on Saturday, where families can gather in Lower Manhattan to watch up to 100 sailboats sail past the Statue of Liberty and up the Hudson River! (Or, watch the impressive fleet from Governor’s Island, which opens on Saturday with a special Family Festival!)
