My kids still remember getting a shake at BlackTap restaurant. They are expensive but memorable. Black Tap Craft Burgers & Beer https://share.google/xFcRRkH03N7sm9DWo

Statue of Liberty
Shopping or window shopping: so many giant flagship stores with fun displays (American girl, Lego, M&M, Hersheys, etc.)
Some kind of crazy dessert or milkshake experience
