The 26 best things to do in Chicago with kids
"There are plenty of other attractions from Navy Pier included on this list, but we would be remiss if we didn’t include the Ferris Wheel. At 200-feet high, the Centennial Wheel offers 360-degree views and enclosed gondolas, making it a child favorite no matter the season.

Top things to do in Chicago, USA
"Built in 1914 and named for the chewing-gum guy, Wrigley Field is the second-oldest baseball park in the major leagues. It's known for its hand-turned scoreboard, ivy-covered outfield walls and neon sign over the front entrance. The Cubs are the home team. Games are always packed. Ticket prices vary, but in general you'll be hard-pressed to get in for under $45. The area around the stadium is like a big street festival on game days."

"This century-old ballpark is home to the Chicago Cubs, who finally paid back diehard fans with a World Series win in 2016 (the previous one was in 1908). The party neighborhood around it is known as "Wrigleyville," full of restaurants and bars. The ballpark is famous for its ivy-covered brick walls in the outfield, its iconic red sign, the manually operated scoreboard, and its giant troughs in the men's bathroom."

Chicago – The Perfect Itinerary for First-Timers
"After the tour, get another perspective on the city’s architecture with a view from up above by visiting 360 Chicago, an observatory among the clouds, located in the John Hancock building. The observatory offers stunning views of the entire City of Chicago, as well as the coastline of Lake Michigan. It truly gives you a sense for the expanse of the lake, because it’s so big that it seems more like an ocean!"

"Based on Navy Pier, this adored non-profit theatre company has done as much as anyone to help keep Chicago on the cultural map over the last 30 years. In short order the theatre has earned three Laurence Olivier Awards, as well as a regional Tony in 2008. Its main aim is to introduce people to the works of William Shakespeare, through school tours, summer plays in parks and productions at its own majestic venue, adding up to 600 performances a year."

But the Navy Pier’s Chicago Shakespeare Theater showcases a ton of kid-friendly performances, including shorter 75-minute abridged productions geared toward families and students. Check their website for the latest shows and schedules."
