Should You Take Your Kids to Anne Frank The Exhibition? A Parent's Guide

Anne Frank The Exhibition opens to the public on Monday, January 27 at the Center for Jewish History.

When it comes to teaching kids about the Holocaust, New York City parents and teachers have a new tool at their disposal: Anne Frank The Exhibition, which opens today at the Center for Jewish History. Presented in partnership with Amsterdam's Anne Frank House, this landmark exhibition brings to life The Annex—the hiding place of Frank's family and other Jewish refugees, where Frank's famous diary was penned—for the first time outside of Amsterdam.

Though a pioneering exhibition, which opens on International Holocaust Remembrance Day—January 27—the subject matter itself may have parents wondering whether to bring kids. I had a chance to preview the exhibit and it was more emotional than I imagined. At times, it took my breath away, and I cried when recounting some of its exhibits. It just might make you and your kids cry, too. Whether you choose to take your kids to this unique NYC exhibit is a deeply personal decision, but I'm sharing my experience below, plus some tips to prepare you if you decide to visit.

Of course, you can find more local exhibits in our NYC Kids Guide to Museums.

10 Kid-Friendly Winter Hikes in the Atlanta Area

Check out these great family-friendly winter hikes in the Atlanta area.

Take the kids on a winter hike (or two) by getting some much needed fresh air and sun this season. When the weather permits, motivate the family off the couch, bundle up in a layer or two, pack a picnic lunch, and enjoy a fun Atlanta hike. 

Choosing a new winter hike destination each week offers exciting views and experiences, while providing a great introduction to the outdoors (some of these destinations offer access to playgrounds as well). And once everyone is tuckered out from a winter hike, cuddle back on the couch for hot chocolate and a movie night!
