Over winter break DuPage Children's Museum adds Winter Break Wonderland, a set of frosty indoor activities built around a sock-skating rink where kids glide, spin and slide in their socks. Around the rink are a cocoa counter for pretend math and measuring, a mini Zamboni table, pop-up snowball motion experiments, ice-block building, ribbons for skating performances, mini snow forts, an iceberg buoyancy station with arctic animals, a winter smells station, a pretend snow box and a cozy cabin respite area under 'northern lights'. It runs Saturday, December 19 through Monday, January 4, and everything is included with admission or membership. Bring cotton socks (the museum suggests turning grippy socks inside out); sock skating involves sliding and the risk of falls. Designed for children 0–10, with separate spaces for under-twos.
