There's two more days to enter to win tickets to Sesame Street Live or Dear Edwina. And on Friday we're finishing up our week of giveaways with a huge Wintuk giveaway. But today we've got another great giveaway for you. 4 tickets to see the hilarious Chestnuts Roasting on the Flaming Idiots at the New Victory Theater. Read on for our review of the show and to find out how you can enter.

Dear Edwina is a show about a girl who performs a musical advice column out of her family's garage. Praised for its wonderful musical numbers, the Drama Desk Award-nominated Dear Edwina's creators just won the prestigious Fred Ebb Award for Excellence in Musical Theatre Songwriting. Dear Edwina is recommended for all ages from 5 and up. Shea saw the musical  last year and she and her boys loved it. You can read her full review here.

We're giving away a family four-pack of tickets to see Dear Edwina. We also have a promotion to share.

Tim Burton is most known for his films like Edward Scissorhands and Beetlejuice, but the new exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art takes you beyond the films to see the art and inspiration of the man from this childhood in California to the present. The Tim Burton exhibit at the MoMA is a great show for children as Burton has claimed the art museum and taken it over with his creativity, fantasy and whimsy. This massive exhibit contains hundreds of drawings, paintings, sculptures, videos and movie memorabilia from Burton’s life and career. From the moment you step through the gaping jaws of a fantastical Tim Burton-designed creature, you are entering his world and Burton's world is a child's world (not often found at our great art institutions).

Read on for a preview of the exhibit and some tips for visiting with kids, plus read to the end to also find out how to see Tim Burton's work for free.

You have until 8PM on Tuesday (Dec 8, 2009) to enter our They Might Be Giants Giveaway, but we have another tremendous giveaway today. One lucky family will win four tickets to Sesame Street Live: When Elmo Grows Up at Madison Square Garden's WaMu Theater.

Plus we have a great PROMO CODE if you want to buy tickets: Grown-ups go free!

This week is our Big Holiday Ticket Giveaway. Each day this week we'll be hosting a giveaway post for at least one show. Check every day to make sure you don't miss out on a chance to win tickets to some great shows like Sesame Street Live, Wintuk, and more. The first giveaway in our great week of Holiday Ticket Giveaways is for a They Might Be Giants Benefit Concert this weekend.

We're sure you're going to be busy this weekend, we certainly are. We're hosting our Toy Swap and Drive and are looking forward to meeting many of you. After that I'll be preparing for what's becoming another Holiday tradition here on the site, our Spectacular Holiday Show Ticket Giveaways. Make sure to check the site on Monday so you don't miss out on any of the amazing prizes we have in store.

If your weekend isn't already filled to the brim with shopping and preparing for the holidays, or with holiday traditions like tree lightings and holiday window displays, craft fairs, St. Nicholas Day celebrations, Hanukkah festivals, Nutcrackers and visiting Santa, then perhaps you have a little bit of room for some of these events:

Jay Bushara writes a blog called One Potato where he shares his passion for off the beaten track children's books. Below he illuminates us with his recommendations for some beautiful children's books on the theme of snow, perfect for curling up with on a cold winter's night, whether it's snowing outside or not.

Before New York was New York, it was New Amsterdam and before Santa Claus was Santa Claus, he was Sinterklaas. In the Netherlands, children leave their shoes out on the night of December 5^th for Sinterklaas (St. Nicholas) who comes to their houses and fills the shoes with chocolates and candies (or bundles of sticks for the naughty) in celebration of St. Nicholas’s Day on December 6th.

Celebrate Christmas in New York the old school way by adding a little Sinterklaas to your Holiday mix.
