Last Weekend at Governors Island!

September 22, 2016 by Rachel Witzel

 

Last Weekend at Governor's Island

 

The last weekend of public access to Governor’s Island is this weekend. Jump on the ferry and check out Play:groundNYC!

Summer is officially over and that means Governor’s Island is closing for the season as well. Go visit Governor’s Island for their last weekend for the season. Make sure to stop by Play:groundNYC, the first wild playscape in the NYC area. The 5,000 square foot space follows other Adventure Playground formats—designed as a junkyard of sorts and filled with “trash”—which means kids are free to build, wreck, move, dig, create and take chances at their own pace and level. There’s an area just for the tiniest adventurers (a mud kitchen that requires parental supervision) and there’s a junk play area for kids ages six and up (supervised by play-workers) and the only “rule” is to wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes.

FiDi Families Insiders: Ferries run from the Battery Maritime Terminal in Lower Manhattan seven days a week. On weekends, visitors can board at Brooklyn Bridge Park’s Pier 6. Children under 12 are FREE. $2 round trip for adults and kids over 12. Weekend morning ferries are free, before 11:30am. 
 
For more information on Play:groundNYC check out their website.

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
