Image of Play It Safe LogoWhat's new at CCM?
New exhibits and exciting programs make Chicago Children's Museum a perfect destination this fall!

Build a snow fort, dress up a snow family, and "ice" skate inside, when winter favorite Snow Much Fun opens November 20. Discover a whole new way to Play It Safe, when The Allstate Foundation Presents Play It Safe transforms into a realistic-looking fire house that invites families to explore fire safety through play (opening in December).

Don't miss your chance for an in-depth look at Forts by booking a Forts student workshop (available until December 17).

Last Chance to Save $20
Here's your last chance to save $20 on a facilitated workshop! Simply book your field trip before November 30 to receive your discount. Mention the promotion code EARLYBIRD when booking through Reservation Services at 312.464.8249, or enter it online at checkout.

Featured Workshop: Be a Bee
Trying to build a sense of community in your classroom? Follow the bees' lead! Students will play and learn together as they run a busy bee hive and practice new science vocabulary in this workshop.
