Weekend Fun for NYC Kids: The Science of Santa, Christmas Caroling, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Live Onstage, Make Music Winter December 20-21
Submitted by Stephanie Ogozalek on
It's the last weekend before Christmas and NYC is overflowing with holiday cheer, so there are lots of ways for families to get into the season spirit. Learn all about The Science of Santa; go Christmas caroling in Greenwich Village and Jackson Heights; enjoy multicultural celebrations like Mano a Mano's Posadas y Pastorelas and El Museo del Barrio's Parranda; or catch a stage version of the holiday TV classic Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
It's also a great weekend to hit all the seasonal sights before the tourists take over. So in between last-minute gift shopping, make sure you carve out time to see Santa, and gawk at awesome department store windows and over-the-top holiday homes.
All of our best bets for the weekend are below. You can find additional options in our Event Calendar and our Holiday Fun Guide.
