“Everyone at Play” Adaptive Cycling in Glenview

Enjoy an exciting morning of bike-riding and museum exploration for children with special needs and their families.

Advocate Children’s Hospital, Project Mobility and Variety have teamed up to bring adaptive cycles and safety instruction to “Everyone at Play.”

“Everyone at Play” is a free morning of museum exploration for children with special needs and their families at Kohl Children’s Museum of Greater Chicago in Glenview.

The adaptive cycling event is scheduled for 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. on May 19.

During the event, visitors will have access to the museum’s 17 hands-on exhibits. Museum staff and volunteers will be available to play and to offer support and guidance.

“Everyone at Play” will also include a quiet room and one-on-one interactive activities with trained, registered therapy dogs from Rainbow Animal Assisted Therapy.

The museum building was designed for play with a purpose to encourage linguistic, cognitive, motor, and social skills for children ages birth to 8.

Space is limited and registration is required. You may sign up for free on the “Everyone at Play” registration webpage.

Visitors will register when they arrive in the morning. The adaptive cycling portion of the event has limited space and availability. The cycling will be first-come, first-served.

Visitors should bring their own helmet for each child. Parents and siblings are encouraged to cheer for their cyclist along the cruise route.

Hal of Project Mobility will be available from 12 to 12:30 p.m. to answer any questions families have about adaptive cycles.

“Everyone at Play” attendees will be able to stay and play all day at the museum for free during the regular hours of noon to 5 p.m.
