Looking for things to do with the kids this weekend? From classic family performances to barnyard games, magic shows and more, there's so much to do on Long Island. Here are my top five picks for fun, family-friendly activities this weekend:

1. Hear It! See It! Draw It! at the Nassau County Museum of Art (1 Museum Dr., Roslyn Harbor). At 10 a.m. on Friday, children ages 3-5 and their families can listen to Eastern European folk readings, check out Marc Chagall's art and create drawings inspired by the day. Free with museum admission ($10, $8, $4).
