Looking for the best things to do in New York City this weekend? Here are some family-friendly events and activities to add to your list.

This weekend is a train lover's paradise, as Grand Central Terminal's FREE holiday train display makes its debut. Uptown, the New York Botanical Garden's trains chug along a miniature version of NYC. You can also take your tiny theater lovers to see Flutter at the Ailey Studio or catch Lucy Kalantari and the Jazz Cats at the Jewish Museum. If you're up for a day trip, head across the bridge for the grand opening of Sesame Street Learn and Play—complete with a character parade—at American Dream Mall.
