Bubbles Academy has an imagination hub right in downtown Chicago.

Perfect for kiddos Birth-6 years old.  Located on the 6th floor, they offer classes, activities, and events for young children in the middle of one of Chicago’s busiest shopping centers.

For the local parent, Bubbles Academy offers music and art classes right off of Michigan Avenue in the 900 Shops. Parents can escape the hustle and bustle a little, by signing up for one of their art, music, or dance classes. Currently, registration is for full sessions only.  Drop-in for classes is not allowed. Hopefully, that will change in the future.

The sanity saver, and unique to this location, is their drop-in for open art time from 12:00pm-6:00pm 7 days a week.  For $10 your budding artist can complete an art project, led by the Bubbles Staff. While you have to attend,  the teaching artist is very hands-on and it is relaxing for the parents while the children get to let the creativity flow.  Each week the project theme changes.  So, every visit you will walk away with something new.  Past projects include picture frames, bags, and ornaments. So, fun projects that actually make great keepsakes, souvenirs, or gifts.

Bonus:  

• Bubbles Academy also has a small shop dedicated to Locally Owned retailers.  Unique toys, books, and apparel created for little ones, mostly by Women Entrepreneurs.

• Parking in the 900 Shops garage is Validated with a $10 minimum purchase from Bubbles Academy and select other stores.

• Bubbles Academy has their own bathroom.  So, no need to go roaming the halls to change a diaper or get a toddler to the potty.
