This month is all about the kids of Queens
(and their parents, of course). You shared your
cutest shots of the children in your life with
us on Instagram (page 10). An Astoria author
released a cookbook to help new parents cook for
the whole family (page 16). A Long Island City
mother launched a business making all-natural
popsicles (page 22). There’s a new indoor play
place in LIC (page 38). A camp is teaching kids
tennis (page 50), while a nonprofit is tutoring
recent immigrant children (page 51).
We’re also highlighting a bakery that has
been around for almost a decade where you
can sample traditional Middle Eastern treats
(page 32). And as always, we’re spotlighting
some western Queens residents in our Street
Style and Interior Design features.
