Labor Day Weekend Getaways | IEPs | Coolest New Classes | New Queens Playground
Another summer bites the dust. And based on all the Facebook pictures and status updates people have been sharing, it seems a good time was had by all. It's been great seeing everyone's family vacations, but now it's Labor Day weekend and time to get serious. Well, after one last weekend of fun things to do, one of these car-free getaway ideas or maybe some last-minute Labor Day weekend getaway deals.
Now it's time for apple picking and back to school. If you're in the market for enrichment, you'll find the coolest new kids' classes in our newly updated Classes Guide and our brand-new Directory where you can search for programs by age, location or type. And we're adding more listings every day. Or, if you're too cool for school, you might need to check out this list of support groups and resources for NYC homeschool parents.
Besides lots of great apple picking spots, our regional sister sites have shared some great day trip ideas for Labor Day weekend in New Jersey, a powwow and great camping spots on Long Island, and a day trip to Old Saybrook in Connecticut.
