Best Places to Sled

It's a rare occasion in Brooklyn, but kids get to enjoy a snow day Friday as all New York City Public Schools have closed for the day. 

While many will be sleeping late and travel is still difficult in the early morning, many kids will want to hit the sleds sometime throughout the day. Please be aware, however, that officials have warned to limit time outside today due to the temperature.

Here are a few of the more popular spots to go sledding nearby:

• Near the Tennis House at Prospect Park West and 9th Street
• Fort Greene Park
• Hillside Park (Brooklyn Heights)
