As a NYC family of five in a small apartment, we are always out and exploring on the weekends. We love having fun family adventures in our city. This is our list of the top 5 essentials for a NYC day with kids.
The Backpack
The Backpack: This lightweight, water-resistant backpack fits our family’s snacks, water bottles, and any other little items we need for a day out. It has a large interior section, and 2 smaller exterior pockets that zip closed. It is a great size for a day out exploring the city!
Stain Treater
Stain Treater: A small spray bottle of stain treater is the key to eating with kids, and never being caught unprepared on the go. Our favorite stain treater also comes in a wipes version, or you can grab a bundle with both. You can easily remove stains from clothing as soon as they happen!
Toddler Carrier
Toddler Carrier: This toddler carrier is a great stroller alternative for navigating subways, buses, or busy sidewalks and museums. It can be worn on the front or back, and fits kids up to 60 lbs. Our three year old still fits comfortably inside, and will even take naps on the go!
Scooters
Scooters: These lightweight, foldable scooters are the easiest way for kids to get around! Our youngest daughter has the mini version for kids ages 2-5, and our older daughters have the maxi version for kids ages 5-12. They use them every day for getting to and from school, and often on weekend adventures!
Waterproof Sneakers
Waterproof Sneakers: NYC adventure days always involve a lot of walking! You never know when a rainstorm might pop up, and wearing lightweight, comfortable waterproof sneakers means you are always prepared, rain or shine. It is so much easier to walk outside when you don’t get wet socks!
We hope you enjoyed this list of our top 5 essentials for a NYC day with kids, and that it inspires your own family adventures in our city!

About me
Hi, my name is Tyler Moore. My wife and I live with our three young daughters in a 700- square-foot apartment in New York City. I began my tidying journey when an early-30’s crisis invited me to reflect upon, challenge, and change my patterns of daily living. I quit my job as a school administrator, returned to teaching, and started Tidy Dad to help others tidy, simplify, and find joy in their lives. I firmly believe the tidying process can transform your life. I’d love for you to join me in exploring ways that tidying can make room for what’s important in life.
