Best storytime: Books of Wonder
A great storytime can spark imagination and instill a love of literature, not to mention buy you a few moments of peace. A subpar version can be deadly. (Remember how time stood still when a beloved teacher was replaced by a tuneless sub?) Books of Wonder does things right: Its readings are short, led by a staff member and packed with picture books tailored to kids up to age seven. There’s an in-house cupcake café, too, because only termites and freaky loners in movies can live on books alone. 18 W 18th St between Fifth and Sixth Aves (212-989-3270, booksofwonder.com); storytime at noon on Sundays.
