The Chicago Traveler

Chicago is a great place to be in the summertime. The kids are out of school and wait a minute….' The kids are out of school so you are probably looking for something to do.' If you don’t have them enrolled in a day camp, you may have run out of unique things to do.' If you are traveling with kids, you will love to have suggestions for something that is kid friendly.' Enjoy our Chicago fun activities including:

• American Girls Day' Out - Do you have a girl who just loves American Girls' Plan to visit the Water Tower Place store on July 1, 8 August 12 or 19th where she can enjoy crafts and activities.
• Check out a guided tour of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago Money Museum and see what $1million dollars looks like all shredded up.' Tours are daily at 1pm.
• Find out what farm life is like by checking out Wagner Farm.' There are hayrides and tours and kids can even find out how to milk a cow.
