It seems just about every little boy wants to be a fireman at some point in his life. The New York City Fire Museum caters to the little and not-so-little boys who once had that dream.
The museum showcases a large collection of authentic firefighting tools, ranging from the eighteenth century to the present day. There is much to see, including hand-pulled and horse-drawn apparatus and other precursors to modern firefighting tools. Additionally, there is a bunch of fire-related artifacts such as toys, models, engine-lamps, and photographs.
To make matters even better for your tyke, the tours are given by actual firefighters. The patience and professionalism shown by the guides goes a long way. Every question will get answered, and they might even scribble off an autograph or two. There is even a "Fire Safety House," which identifies common hazards and how they can be prevented, so your family can learn safety lessons to take home.
The New York City Fire Museum is a surefire hit.
