Central Park Zoo and ANOTHER collection

Since we moved, the kids and I haven't been to the Central Park Zoo as much as we used to go (we used to go about once a week since it was really close to our old apartment).  The kids love the zoo so we decided to take Grandmom while she was visiting.  We took the bus right along 5th Avenue and the kids loved it. They are now really into taking the bus places and it has opened up a whole new mode of transportation that of course means more adventures!

Drew and Katie love the penny smasher machines at different places we visit and it is an easy and inexpensive (two quarters and a penny) way to keep a nice memory of our adventures. Here is the Penny Collector website that shows the penny smasher machines and the handy book that I bought the kids to keep their collection in.  They love it!  Almost every kid friendly location we have been to has a machine, so it has been fun for the kids while we are out and about exploring.
