Cantigny is a super nice place to go when you have a free day. You only have to pay for parking and once you are in there are lots of things to do. We like climbing on the tanks, visiting the military museum (which actually simulates and mocks up different environments taking you from the trenches of WWI, to Normandy in WWII, to the jungles of Vietnam), walking around the grounds and gardens, and playing at the park. You should also check their event calendar on their website because they a lot of times have things like reenactments, car shows, outdoor movies or concerts, as well as festivals and other events. Great place for a nice family friendly outing or a quiet day walking the gardens and learning about McCormick and the history of the grounds with the available tours.
