Mother’s Day Events for Chicagoland Families

Treat Mom to a special event dedicated to her.

Chicago families can enjoy some family fun just in time for Mother’s Day. Take your mother figures out to brunch, to a painting class, to mini golf and more.

We also recommend printing out this list and circling your favorite ideas as a hint to enjoy with your own kids! There are also some gift markets where you can shop for your mother or to treat yourself.

Some of these great events have capacity requirements, timed tickets and early registration deadlines. Make sure to check their websites before heading out.
