            Activities (w/kids) near Chicago's Union Station

            Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            Hi- I'll soon be traveling to Chicago, with a 3.5 hour time span between when we arrive by Amtrak at Union Station and need to get to O'Hare airport. (arrive Amtrak 10:30 a.m; arrive O'Hare 2:00 p.m) Not sure if it's enough time to see any real sights, but am wondering about "diversions" near Union Station or within reasonable bus/train travel time. Any kid-friendly restaurants, parks, or places to release some energy " (even a fast-food restaurant with a "play-land"?) I'd love to visit the zoo, but imagine it's too much of a crunch....I at least want to have some kind of "game plan" for my 3-year-old.

            Any input appreciated!

            Shelly
