| Cloud Gate-Little Travelentz is excited to go under the Cloud Gate |
There are lot things to do in Chicago with kids who wants to save some money or want to break the bank account. We stayed 3 days in Chicago for family travel and renewed my passport. First we checked everything what we really like to do as a family that is kids friendly. I am very thankful the renewal of my passport took only one hour and went well. Good thing people in Consulate office are friendly and very helpful.
Free things in Chicago with kids: Fun things to do with Family:
a. Millennium Park- This is one of the top free things in Chicago with kids and fun things to do with family. You don't need to pay any penny as long as you are there you can enjoy the park.One of the popular tourist attraction why people go in Millennium Park is the Cloud Gate where I decided to put another entry in my blog. ( Parking fee you have to pay by yourself. )
b. Lincoln Park Zoo- is open every day and free to everyone who wants to enjoy the park and the zoo. This is another fun things to do with family if you don't like to break the bank.They have some festivals and host a private events.
c. Grant Park-is public park that is a Chicago's "front yard". This is also popular for tourist because of the " Buckingham Fountain".
