As a reference for a course I teach, I’ve used a great website that lists tons of great field trips that teachers can take with their kids. It listed websites of museums, factories, and all sorts of wondrous places. Now, as I build my syllabus for the coming semester, I find that website is gone. I’ve Googled museums, field trips, kids, Chicago, etc. but I can’t find a good clearing house site. What else might I try in order to scare up the info I’m seeking?
If you want to see the old site, there might be some of it stored at www.archive.org.
and of course there’s our own forum Sweet Home Chicago.
If you look up “Go Cards” or “City Passes” you’ll find sets of destinations and activities. The Chicago GoCards are very nice and have lists based on zones in the city itself.
