Embark on a shopping adventure with something for everyone.
Kick off your shopping adventure at J.Crew, where there’s something for every family member. Crewcuts features stylish children’s clothing that’s both adorable and durable, while the women’s and men’s sections offer everything from sundresses and handbags to tailored blazers and timeless button-ups.
Next, swing by H&M to browse on-trend essentials for the whole crew.
Still feeling creative? Stop into Paper Source for colorful stationery, craft kits, books, toys, stuffed animals, and unique gifts designed to spark imagination. It’s a perfect follow-up to your pottery session—and a hit for both kids and adults.
Time to refuel.
Grab a bite at Shake Shack. Whether you’re craving a 100% Angus beef burger, crispy crinkle-cut fries, or one of their famous hand-spun shakes, there’s something to satisfy every craving. Got a picky eater? The kids’ menu has you covered with chicken bites, fries, and more.
Treat yourselves.
Wrap up the day with a scoop (or two) from L’Artigiano Gelato, where handcrafted Italian flavors range from kid-friendly vanilla and chocolate to refined picks like Sicilian Pistachio. Even better? It’s served from an adorable green Fiat 500—perfect for a post-lunch photo op.
