Christmas in New York City with Kids Checklist
There is nowhere on earth as magical as New York City at Christmas. I spent Christmas 1999 in the city with my family, and still remember the lights, decorations, and beauty. Now, 20 years later I was thrilled to bring my own family to experience the incredible city during the holiday. To guide our trip, I created the following printable Christmas in New York City (with kids) Checklist and hope you enjoy the free printable download!
The idea for the checklist isn’t mine, my older sister, world traveler and extraordinary party planner has created checklists like these for travel. When we came to New York City on a sister’s trip two years ago, she made a similar one for the summertime season (you can find that New York City Checklist right here!)
The Christmas in New York City checklist is perfect if you have a couple days and want to hit some highlights. It can also guide your trip if you are staying a whole week and want to hit everything on the list and take it slow! The checklist prints two to a page for easy printing, and so it can fold to fit in your pocket! Fill out the form below and the free download will be emailed to you!
