This Week: Easter Bunny Photos & Train Rides, Best Spring Museum Exhibits for NYC Kids, Hot Deals on Summer Camps

This last weekend of March we're all looking ahead to everything spring brings like Easter, the ELA tests (they're next week!), school break and a lot more time outdoors. While we're still in the process of updating our super-popular Easter egg hunts post (don't worry, it's coming next week), we did share the best places to take your photo with the Easter Bunny in NYC and New Jersey, as well as fun holiday-themed train rides with the big bunny.
Spring is also a great season for family culture, both high and low. We kicked off our coverage with a roundup of the best new museum exhibits for kids in NYC while our Los Angeles site has a great review of Muppets Most Wanted, which my daughter and I also loved. Be warned, once you read about all the awesome extras you get when you see it at Disney's El Capitan Theatre in LA, you may feel inspired to book your spring break vacation there.
And if your family's not quite ready to say goodbye to winter, we have a great giveaway going on for you: Enter to win a family four-pack of lift tickets to Killington Resort in Vermont.
Here's what else we covered on the NYC site this week:
