Weekly Wrap Up: Easter Egg Hunts, Spring Break Camps, Harlem Family-Friendly Restaurants

3/22/12 - By Raven Snook

If you've passed by any store displays lately, then you know Easter (and scary looking Easter Bunnies) are coming. Even though the holiday isn't until April 8, Easter egg hunts kick off this weekend in New York City, Long Island, Connecticut and even up in Boston. You can also go for an old-fashioned train ride with the Easter Bunny in New Jersey.

Since spring is officially here, you need to figure out what to do with the kids over spring break, which is why we rounded up 29 NYC spring break camps. If you're thinking about taking a day or weekend trip, we have lots of ideas in our Travel Guide. Or how about exploring a new-to-you NYC neighborhood? So far we've launched in-depth guides to Chinatown, Harlem, Park Slope, Jackson Heights and the Upper West Side.
