By Linda Tagliaferro, About.com Guide

As you stroll through Museum Row, the home of the Long Island Children's Museum and the Cradle of Aviation Museum, take the kids for a whirl on the historic Nunley's Carousel. With over 40 colorful horses and one majestic lion, the carousel spins around while masterfully carved steeds prance up and down and the familiar strains of calliope music fill the air.
