When I was little I always loved the museum of natural history to go and see the dinosaurs!

I agree with both of the above suggestions. Both of these places are great for that age range.

I live in the city with my 7 year old.

We live on the UWS. Near us is the museum of natural history, Children's Museum and CP Zoo. You can then go have a picnic in Central Park and pick up the food on the way. If you have girls, there is a cute place to eat Alice's tea cup. Its Alice in Wonderland theme and they give the kids butterfly wings.

If you want to go to Times Square, there is the Toys R Us Store, Dave and Busters.

If you're going on the weekend, definitely Governors Island (although not technically "the city.")!
