One of the coolest theatre experiences! If you are looking for an interactive theatre experience this winter, @cabaretzazou is it. THE TALENT IS 10/10 👏

They invited me in to check out this production, which is a combo of International cirque, comedy and cabaret! 🎭

Show tickets begin at $75 (roughly 2.5 hour show). Full experience tickets are also available and include a multi-course meal designed by @blueplatechicago (and the food is really, really good)

The show takes place on the 14th floor of the @cambriachicagoloop Hotel in The Spiegeltent ZaZou, a Belgian mirror tent. 🎪

It’s great for birthdays, bachelorettes, dates and more!

Add to your winter bucketlist! #chicagotheatre #chicagobucketlist #chicagothingstodo #choosechicago #downtownchicago

We did it! We can cross learning how to ski off our bucket list! January is Learn to Ski Month, and @wilmotmountain has been teaching people how to ski for 85 years! It’s the best place to get a lesson and try it out this winter! Not too far from the city and something to new to try over these next few winter months! And Holders get 20% off on-mountain experiences like group lessons!

After the lesson, we grabbed drinks and snacks at the Lodge. We also stayed the night in Kenosha which was about a 25 minute drive away. We had so much fun and are definitely planning on going back!

Link in my bio to check out everything Wilmot has to offer and book your lesson!

Part 6 of things to do over winter break! These two options allow the kids (and adults) to let out some extra energy off!

@altitudechicago in West Town (there are a few suburbs locations too like Skokie, Elmburst, Lombard…) that is so fun for kids and adults! The little kids area is from 2-6 years old and they sell snack and adult beverages for the adults!

@fitcity in Lincoln Square has climbing areas for the big and little ones (6 months and up), basketball court and indoor soccer turf field. They have winter break camps and drop in classes!

Both places also make great spots for birthday parties! #chicagoparent #chicagomom #chicagolandarea #chicagokids #chicagofamily

They also have adults only nights too! The kids absolutely loved it & want to go back! At the end, there was a kids dance party and they were helping one another create their forts! It’s been extended to January 22nd! @filamentplays #chicagoparent #chicagokids #chicagofamily #chicagobucketlist
