Take your daughter to FAO Schwartz (the toy store) its awesome! I have not been to NYC in about 6 years, but I love it there and used to go quite often. I am going in July this year for a few days. We used to take in a Yankees game, we always went to the site of the Twin Towers and said a prayer. We walked through Little Italy, Soho and China town and ate somewhere obscure. I also did a tour of Radio City Music hall and went up on stage to yell, sing & dance to see what it's like and hear the acoustics. That building is amazing.
Also there is a little zoo in Central Park. Its pretty cool! Shopping on 5th Avenue... oohh Carnegie deli for the BIGGEST yummiest corn beef or roast beef sandwiches. I mean they are huge... the line is always down the block, but it moves quick quick and you eat cafeteria style inside, and you leave quick... but you won't regret trying the sandwiches, they are amazing. 1 can feed 3 people easily!
