WAKE UP, BROTHER BEAR!

Immersive fun for all

Advertisement

By popular demand, Chicago Children’s Theatre has extended Wake Up, Brother Bear! through March 1. This immersive theatrical experience, full of music and physical activity, is a journey through the four seasons led by two loveable bears who take the kids to see a waterfall melt, meet a butterfly, chase an elusive fish and skate on an icy pond.

Experience live storytelling in a whole new way, and don’t forget the pre- and post-show activities in the lobby. Playing Saturdays and Sundays at 9:30 and 11:30 a.m. at Chicago Children’s Theatre, The Station. 100 S. Racine in Chicago’s West Loop. ChicagoChildrensTheatre.org The Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum is loaded with enriching exhibits and opportunities for hands-on interactions with a variety of animals. Brand new this month is the Dragons Alive! the Science and Culture of Reptiles exhibit, showcasing 10 live species of reptiles and lizards from around the world. It also explores the connections between dragons, people and cultures throughout history. 2430 N. Cannon Dr. NatureMuseum.org Chicago’s Museum Campus is a great destination for learning about the world. It’s home the Field Museum, Shedd Aquarium and Adler Planetarium. If you visit one or all of them, make sure to get a great family photo with the lake and skyline as a backdrop.

SWEET TOOTH

C’mon, you know they’ve earned it. Treat the kids and their sweet tooth to a treat from Stan’s Donuts. With everything from standard donuts to specialty creations like cookie butter-filled biscoff pockets and the famous lemon pistachio old fashioned, everyone is sure to find something they love. And don’t get us started on the blueberry fritters or maple long johns. Stan’s Donuts has eight Chicago locations. 259 E. Erie, 535 N. Michigan, 1301 W. Lake, 181 N. Michigan and more.
