Sony Wonder Technology Lab

If you're traveling to NYC with kids and you want to experience something very unique and loads of FUN, visit the Sony Wonder Technology Lab.  It's the perfect ending to our NYC Kids Learning and Fun Tour and just a few blocks away from FAO Schwarz.  This attraction will keep you and your kids entertained for hours.  (I know I enjoyed it!) 

When you first enter, you create a virtual profile that you can use throughout your visit.  As you approach different activity stations, you blink your card and your profile picture comes up.  There are quite a few options to choose from on the four different floors of the lab.  Some include programming your own robot, learning about nanotechnology, performing virtual surgery, use of an HDTV studio and creating characters in an animation studio. 

In addition to these activities, the lab also showcases some fun, animated short films and gives a GREAT deal of knowledge about how technology has evolved over the years.  One of my favorite things was seeing one of the camcorders we had in the 1980s along with the word processor I know my mom had in the 1970s.  Those things sure look big and bulky compared to what we have available to us today.  The crazy thing is that in 10 to 20 more years, what we use now will be obsolete. 

At any rate, the Sony Wonder Technology Lab will get you and your children thinking on your feet.  It will keep you active, engaged and excited about learning.
