It’s here! ChiTAG!

Today is the day! Yesterday we made the last minute decision to head up to Chicago a day early. I found an amazing deal at the Loews Hotel and rather than get up at 4:00 AM and make the trip we headed up early. (4 AM, long car ride, 4 kids…..that did NOT sound like fun to me!)

The windy city greeting us with a little snow flurry when we got here and this morning is more of the same. Our hotel looks over the city and Navy Pier – we are in the perfect spot! ChiTAG comes at the perfect time. It’s also time for Christmas time celebrations – the lighting of the Christmas tree, the festival of lights and the city is decorated! To me, that means coming up for ChiTAG is the perfect addition to a Christmas time holiday trip.

ChiTAG has so many activities going on today. We will be starting early (and live streaming!) and meeting with all of the awesome game and toy companies finding you the coolest toys of the season!
