How Our Editor Spent Her Summer in Chicago

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes at Red Tricycle Chicago? When we’re not writing about what you can do with your kids, we’re out there experiencing it. Our editor Kelly Aiglon went searching for fun with her twin boys this summer. As you can imagine, she didn’t need to look far. Water slides were coasted. Farmers’ markets were shopped. Playgrounds were romped. And naps were avoided like the plague (alas!). Flip through the photo album for a peek at all the highlights.

We Played (and Played and Played)

When the heat wave hit in mid-July we made a beeline for Purple Monkey Playroom. But it wasn't only the air conditioning that lured us. A play hut, slide, dress-up clothes and toys galore made this visit special. Located at 2040 N. Western Ave. (773-772-8411 or purplemonkeyplayroom.com)

What did you do this summer? Let us know in the Comments section below.
