Holiday dance show

Danceventures in Toyland

Expand to see the parent tip

The Park District’s IndepenDANCE Collective dance team brings Toyland to life in a one-hour holiday show full of festive music and playful games.

It is written for kids and families, short enough for little ones to sit through, with three performances the weekend before Christmas.

Parent tip: Pick the Sunday 3:30 pm show for younger kids who would not last until an evening curtain.

Plan your December

When each Oak Lawn Christmas event for kids happens

Call ahead for Breakfast with Santa on December 6. Spend the weekend of December 12 and 13 at the Oak Lawn Ice Arena for the free show and Skate with Santa, then catch Danceventures in Toyland the weekend before Christmas.

Looking further afield? Our Illinois Christmas events for kids guide lists every confirmed event in the state, and we have city guides for La Grange, Tinley Park, Chicago and Lemont. The national search sorts every event by distance from your town.

A story for the drive home

A morning with Santa or an evening of holiday stories tends to end the same way: tired kids, a long drive and one more book before bed. Our picture book follows Rally the corgi on his first train ride to see his grand-paw-rents, and every page is painted by hand. If your family is spending December missing someone, it was written for that too. For the car, print our free corgi and train coloring pages.

Rally Takes the Train book cover: a watercolor corgi peeking from a red train

A bedtime story after seeing SantaRally Takes the Train is a five-minute rhyming picture book about a corgi’s first ride on a California train, hand-painted in watercolor. $16.99 on Amazon, ages 0 to 8.
