Avoid Major Parent Fail: Book These Sleepovers Now!

If you’re lucky enough to have crossed the American Museum of National History’s “Night at the Museum” sleepover off your list, congrats. (If not, add it to the family “bucket list.”) Either way, that’s hardly the only sleepover in town. You and the kids can sleep like royalty in a cathedral, a sailor on an aircraft carrier, a scientist in not one, but two museums, and more. Just note the dates and book soon — these affairs sell out fast! Click through to find the overnight for you!

To Visit Africa By Way of the Bronx: Family Overnight Safari

Sleep among the lion, zebras, snow leopards and more at the Bronx Zoo's Family Overnight Safari. Kids five and older (with adult chaperone) are invited for an evening of fun and educational activities with museum staff. Kids also get a commemorative T-shirt, late-night snack and wake up call from the resident sea lions. Bring along a tent, sleeping bag and picnic dinner.

Next overnights: 6/10, 9/9, 9/23

Tickets: $185/person; $175/members
