Eastchester sits at the far northeastern edge of the Bronx, where the borough meets the Westchester County line. It's a quiet, low-key neighborhood, the kind of place where single- and two-family homes line tree-shaded blocks and the pace slows down considerably from the rest of the city. For little kids, the green standout is Seton Falls Park, a 30-plus-acre preserve with a waterfall, walking trails, and a playground tucked inside. It's an unusually wild spot for the Bronx and works well for a morning out with a toddler who needs room to roam. The New York Public Library's Edenwald branch, right on East 233rd Street, runs children's programming and has a solid kids' collection, and that's also where you'll find events from the New York Public Library on this calendar. Getting around without a car is doable: the 5 train and several bus lines run through the area, and the streets are flat and easy to push a stroller on. Eastchester is not a neighborhood flush with toddler studios or drop-in play spaces, but the outdoor green space and the library anchor family life here day to day.
