The smallest visitors love permanent exhibits like “Kids Town” where they ones can work pretend city jobs like bus driver and grocery store clerk. Little archaeologists can dig for dino bones in a replica excavation pit, and even cooped-up urban kids can get a dose of green space in the indoor Big Backyard, which combines technology and art to create a fantastical Chicago neighborhood backyard that changes with the seasons. The first Sunday of every month is free for kids ages 15 and under, and all Thursdays evenings from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. are free for everyone.
