1. John Hancock Center
John Hancock Center / Observatory, Chicago, Illinois
Take an elevator ride to the 96th floor - Enjoy cocktails (for the adults) and appetizers (for the teens) and overlook breathtaking views of the lit-up city!
2. 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee - Chicago
http://www.spellingbeethemusical.com/chicago/
Awesome show in a small, intimate theater. Adults and teens will laugh and laugh and laugh!
3. Millennium Park
Millennium Park, Chicago, Illinois
Great for picture-taking. In the winter, you can ice-skate. Marvel at the sculptures and animated monuments.
4. Magnificent Mile
Magnificent Mile, Chicago, Illinois
Kids will want to be sure to hit Niketown, Apple, and the Hershey's Chocolate store amongst others.
5. Grand Lux Cafe
Grand Lux Cafe, Chicago, Illinois
Perfect for teen girls - great menu and made-to-order, fresh baked desserts in a fun, eclectic setting overlooking Michigan Avenue.
6. ESPN Zone
ESPN Zone, Chicago, Illinois
Fun for girls and boys! Sit in the Sceening Room to watch a huge, projector screen surrounded by many others, all showing different sporting events. Booth tables have their own personal TVs and you can pick which you want to watch up-close. Teens will love the game room.
7. Navy Pier
Navy Pier, Chicago, Illinois
Shop, eat and sightsee in this Chicago landmark.
8. Shaw's Crab House
Shaw's Crab House, Chicago, Illinois
Perhaps more exciting for the adults than your teen, but teens will still appreciate it (if they like fish and shellfish!) Hang out in the loud, boisterous oyster bar before being seated. A classic Chicago hangout - makes for a fantastic night out!
9. Macy's on State Street
Used to be Marshall Field's. Still amazing at Christmastime with the State Street windows and decorations. Still an amazing architectural building.
