Looking for Some New Ideas to Do with the Kids This Summer

This summer we found this cool place called PUMP IT UP! - They are all around but we went to Orland Park. It pay per kid - adults are free - and they have on Tues and Thurs "pop in play" for 2 hours - its all inflatables and it is awesome My two year old (and my husband) had a blast. It would be perfect for all ages.

Have you gone to the Ty Warner waterpark in Westmont? It's not a pool, but a water area you can run, jump and splash in. I think it's $4 for kids, adults free thou. Google "Ty Warner Waterpark" to get more info!!!

Also, if they like airplanes...Clow Airport in Bolingbrook is fun to take them to while you eat breakfast...watch the planes land and take off! (Make sure nice clear day thou).

Just a couple ideas! Have fun!

I had the same request a few weeks back and I got tons of great suggestions. I took my 5 year old and 2 year old to the Morton arboretum's children's garden in lisle. it was awesome! remember to take an extra change of clothes and/or a towel because there are a lot of water type activities. my kids got so soaked jumping on the rocks and watering the flowers. there were a lot of big kids there too. also, we're going to pirates cove next. it looks awesome!! do a search on the net for it. I'm typing on an iPhone or else I'd give you the link:)

hi L.,
There's Morton arboretum's children's garden in lisle.
Also I heard about a waterpark just open in yorkville a friend of mine went there and said it was great.
Also we like going to blackberry farm, we look at animals, ride ponys,they have a little train and we picnic there.
hope this helps.

Hi L.

I have a powerpoint doc that I've been adding to for a year and a half with tons of stuff to do in Chicagoland. If you want, I can forward you the doc. Just send me an email to ____@____.com.
