NY Historical Society and Dimenna Children’s History Museum

02/17/2016 by The Mama Maven

Recently we went into Manhattan to take our kids to the NY Historical Society on the Upper West Side. We were going to see the Superheroes of Gotham exhibit. Located right next to the American Museum of Natural History and very subway accessible, this is a great place to take the family. The Dimenna Children’s History Museum is located right on the lower floor.

My kids loved the train sets on the first floor — you can enter the display through three little crawl spaces (adults, you’re not going to fit). Note: If you have a child who may wander off, there are three exits you’ll have to keep an eye on.

Yep, that’s the Batmobile from 1969.

We headed upstairs to the Superheroes of Gotham Exhibit. However, I wasn’t allowed to take any photos or video inside.

They had a cool photobooth for the kids. Here’s my daughter saving Lady Liberty from a giant octopus.

And here’s my youngest, saving a subway train (he had his hands the wrong way…)
