Little drama queens and kings will love the theater that abounds this weekend in Chicago parks with the Physical Theater Festival in Hyde Park, The Peacock Fairy in Chinatown, and free street theater in Gage Park. Athletic kids can get into Family Game Day at Thatcher Woods, MLB's Play Ball events, or at Family Sunday with local minor league team The Chicago Dogs. Families can also explore the grand opening of the new Sand Ridge Nature Campus in South Holland.

When the temperature rises, be sure to duck in for some air-conditioned culture on a free day at one of Chicago's best museums. Or cool off at a local family-friendly beach or free public pool!
