Something we enjoyed doing when the kids were young is taking them downtown to what was then, Dayton's/Marshall Fields 8th floor holiday display. Over the years the store has become part of the Macy's chain and they continue to carry on the tradition. There is always a holiday theme and many wonderful displays and animation for the both kids young and old! You can't miss the cursory visit with Santa Claus to finish off the experience. For more information on the display you can check out
