Before we say hello to 2023, it's time to remember our favorites from the last year with the best of 2022 - Boston kid edition. We're lucky to live in and around Boston, where activities for kids and family-friendly events occur every week. Boston's attractions and live shows in 2022 kept kids entertained and families coming back for more. From LEGO art to the wonder of sharks and live shows, 2022 was another great year. Our Best of 2022 - Boston Kids Edition also features some of the best events of 2022 from around the country. And there is so much more to come in 2023! We wish you a safe, happy, and fun-filled new year.

There are parks and then there are parks, and Sugar Sand Park in Boca Raton definitely falls into the latter category—guaranteed to blow your kids away and keep them entertained for hours. Located right off I-95 between Miami and West Palm Beach, this park is truly a local gem. Features include a gigantic, all-inclusive playground with a splash pad in the middle, as well as a free science museum for children.  But that's not all! The 132-acre park also has a carousel and a theater with regular family programming.  

Here's more on why Sugar Sand Park is my family's new favorite play spot, and what you can expect when planning a visit.

Before we put this year in our rear-view, we thought we'd take a moment to remember the best openings, happenings, and more with a Connecticut kid edition of he Best of 2022. From immersive art to dinosaur fun, there were new exhibits and attractions to delight Connecticut families in 2022. A family favorite added a new holiday experience, while the Beardsley Zoo's Centennial brought a host of events to town. These attractions brought some wonderful experiences and great memories for kids in Connecticut. And while we look forward to more family fun in 2023, we remember 2022 with the best of Connecticut and the top openings and happenings from around the country. We wish you a safe and happy new year!

Read on for the best kid-friendly openings in New Jersey in 2022.

Long Island enjoyed several kid-friendly openings in 2022 that represented a modest return to normalcy for parents who longed for additions to the time-honored lineup of family-friendly experiences we’ve grown to love.

While it’s true that, at times, we leaned on Long Island’s beaches, farm stands, and libraries for another year of family fun, we also saw the doors open on new play spaces, hiking and biking trails, and family-friendly restaurants. Some of them were even FREE for the public to enjoy. And as these new venues opened, our parent-strong team of local writers was there to give you Mommy Poppins’ first impressions.

Here is a look back at Long Island's kid-friendly openings in 2022 that inspired us, elevated us (literally), enlightened us, but mostly just brought us together. Check them out at your convenience and know we will be here in 2023 with the skinny on all family-friendly things to do on Long Island.
