Moms, kids have play date with Kohl Museum

The new $18 million Kohl Children's Museum in Glenview is big--about twice  
the size of the old one in Wilmette. It has a lot more parking. And it's cool 
to  look at--its dramatic pitched roof resembles mountains.

But is it any  fun? Museum staff say it is, touting the new facility as 
"moved and improved," a  guaranteed kid-pleaser with exhibits for babies to 
8-year-olds plus thoughtful  family-friendly amenities, like nursing stations, aimed 
at making the experience  as stress-free for parents as possible....
 
Hit: Nursing alcoves

Our moms noticed, and raved about, the nursing  alcoves, with their cheerful 
yellow-cushioned benches, tucked into many of the  exhibit areas. Although 
only semi-private (there are no curtains or doors to  completely conceal nursing 
moms), the alcoves provide quiet spots to breast-feed  babies. "It's a little 
open, but it's nice to have it," said Jones as her  7-week-old daughter, 
Bonnie, slept in a stroller nearby.
