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!

For Science Sleuths: New York Hall of Science

Not just anybody can sign up for this one; large groups such as Boy and Girl Scout troops enjoy overnights here. For those lucky kids, the evening includes a journey through the museum to discover the secrets of science, such as how ants communicate to the magic of optical illusions. After scouring the museum for clues to the mysteries of the universe,  kids dons their PJs and enjoy milk and cookies in front of NYSCI’s very own 3D theater. In the morning, a continental breakfast is provided, and tiny scientists can explore the exhibits — with the whole museum to themselves.

Next overnight: March 18 & April 1 (Girl Scouts); March 25 & April 8 (Boy Scouts)

Tickets: $85/person
