There is Plenty of Family Fun Along the South Shore Line this Holiday Season!

The holiday season is upon us and there is a ton going on throughout Chicagoland! The South Shore Line can get you to hundreds of events taking place through the end of the year – and the best part: up to three kids can ride free with an accompanying adult!

Take a look at some of what we found for family fun along the South Shore Line and if we missed something, let us know with a comment or an email to share@ideasinmotionmedia.com and we’ll add to this list!
