Families also receive private access to the Business-of-Play Lounge; the hotel’s Business Lounge has been converted to feature favorites from the museum, including games and a mini car racing track. Other Business-of-Play lounge inclusions are the large-scale Imagination Playground for climbing, exploring and more; Puffball Catapults, allowing kids to experiment with force and distance; Kapla Blocks, to stack in different configurations; and Zoom Room Test Track, assisting in building foundational learning skills.

 

The Play Anywhere Bag has materials to construct a mini-skyscraper; the book The Skin You Live In; supplies to become a Bath Tub Muralist; D.I.Y postcards; and seek-and-find activities for around the hotel and neighborhood.

 

“As a family-friendly hotel, we wanted to offer guests a safe and exciting way to play during their stay with us this spring,” said Jim Marino, general manager, Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel. “The Chicago Children’s Museum is a beloved family institution in Chicago, and this partnership allows us to showcase our existing family offerings while supporting children’s mental health and development through these challenging times.”

 

A portion of the proceeds from the Chicago Children’s Museum Experience at Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel, Chicago will be donated to Chicago Children’s Museum.
