Looking for some budget-friendly family fun this winter? Then you'll love the return of this special pop-up from the North Shore's favorite children's museum.
Kohl Children's Museum is hosting its very own satellite museum in Waukegan, and families can experience it for free. Filled with various learning stations for children, the pop-up is running now through March 21 at College of Lake County's Lakeshore Campus. It will be open to the public on select hours from Thursday to Saturdays.
The pop-up museum allows families to interact with elements of the "Built It!" exhibit, a paleontologist's tent filled with equipment to help kids explore fossils, an art studio, reading nook and other stations featuring STEM activities. In addition, attendees will receive at-home activities to continue the learning fun.
If you don't have a chance to visit the Waukegan location, the pop-up museum's next stop will be Round Lake Beach beginning sometime in April.
