Fall Drop-In Classes

There are so many options for kids classes in Chicago and the surrounding areas, and many classes are available not only as sessions, but as drop-ins. With a drop-in class, you can try something different every week, and look for something that your child will enjoy!

You can find lots of great class providers in the ChicagoKids.com Class Guide. And this Fall, we've partnered with Sawyer to provide you with additional information on individual classes. You can now find many drop-in classes in our Calendar of Events so that you can find options for the dates that work with your schedule.
