Sleep with the Monsters
National Hellenic Museum 333 S. Halsted St., Chicago, Illinois
Families will explore the museum by flashlight, visit the fantastical and fun Greek Monsters exhibit, and step back in time in the new hands-on Monumental exhibition, where children can build their own Acropolis, touch the foot of Athena, and play dress-up, as they explore Greek and Maya architecture. Plua, make crafts, hear stories of Zeus and Athena and learn some Greek dance steps before settling in for a movie and snacks and falling asleep surrounded by more than three millennia of Greek culture and history. In the morning, the Pan Hellenic Bakery will show families how to bake classic Greek cookies.
