Summit One Vanderbilt? It's all indoors so you get the city views without getting cold in February.

I fun foodie evening with kids is eating dinner in China town, ice cream cone for desert, then walk up through to little Italy and pick up something from an Italian bakery for the next day. There are pretty lanterns and lights in both neighborhoods so it’s a nice walk with kids (and adults!) in the evening

Also, if your DD is a Taylor Swift fan, after walking the High Line, you can walk (or take a short cab) to her old house on Cornelia Street...my 10 YO Swiftie got a kick out of that

Yeah the most impactful thing my DS remembers as a 3 year old was the M&M store hehe

- The main New York Public Library — like a free museum with books.
