Things to do in Chicago with kids

Are you superstitious? Does the number 13 make you quiver in your boots? If so, you'll want to plan your fun outings this week around Friday, which happens to be Friday the 13th. Did you know there's actually a name for the fear of Friday the 13th? It's paraskavedekatriaphobia. Who knew? Good luck pronouncing it!
