Our New Deals Page Has Savings on Classes, Parties, and More

A few weeks ago we added a new feature to the site and we wanted to make sure you knew about it. We love helping families save time and money. That's why we created our new deals page. We’ve invited local businesses who value Mommy Poppins readers to offer exclusive deals. And they delivered.
OUR LATEST VIDEOS
Looking for classes for this fall? Some of our favorite places are offering deals just for you. Like Robofun, one of our favorite places to learn LEGO robotics is offering 10% off to Mommy Poppins readers. TADA!, another place our kids love, is offering a discount on their one-day school holiday camps. We also love the Brooklyn Strategist and founder Jon Freeman has started a new uptown outpost called Hex & Company and is offering Mommy Poppins readers an introductory offer. You’ll also find savings on music classes, sports programs and more for toddlers through teens.
Planning a birthday party? We know how expensive they can be so we’re thrilled that the amazing Children’s Museum of the Arts is offering $250 off a party package! Or save 10% on a party at the fun-filled Aviator Sports Center. How about a virtual reality party? YokeyPokey Virtual Reality Club is offering Mommy Poppins readers 20% off.
There's more too. Find big savings on the new Times Square attraction Guliver's Gate, tickets to The Amazing Max magic show or even glasses for the family.
To find deals just click on the red "See our local DEALS" button right above our event calendar. You can filter your options by location or type using the blue filter tabs or just scroll to see all deals. Or if you want to search all our classes, parties or family fun options, uncheck deals and use the filters to find the best things in NYC for families in our directory.
New deals are coming in every day so make sure to check back whenever you’re looking for family fun.
About the Author

Founder & CEO of Mommy Poppins
Anna was born in Park Slope, spent her early years in the West Village. By the time she graduated high school, she had lived in 4 of the 5 boroughs. Growing up in NYC in the '70s meant the streets were her playgrounds. Museums and avant garde music venues were the kid-friendly activities. And living downtown taught her the importance of creating community for families in NYC.
Now, raising her own two children in the city, she tries to create the same sense of magic and community she felt growing up, despite today's more commercialized version of kid-friendly New York.
She started Mommy Poppins in 2007 to share a more artsy, educational, uncommercial, community-oriented vision of raising kids in New York City. Today Mommy Poppins is relied on by millions of families as the authority on the best things to do with kids beyond New York City: from Boston to Philly, Los Angeles, Houston and travel guides for dozens more cities and destinations.
