So, a little over a week ago we packed up our little family and hit the road. Our trip to Chicago was wonderful and the children were so well behaved...even little Isaac, who had never been on a road trip this long before. It took us about 10 hours to get there and we were happy to arrive after a loooooong trip.
Our morning at ChiTag began with a lovely, complimentary breakfast at Navy Pier. It was nice to be able to sit and relax before hitting the Toy and Game Fair.
My son loves food and so he really enjoyed himself here...as you can see. I think he ate like three cereal bars and lots of juice. Yep, my boy LOVES food! :)
After breakfast and listening to some motivational blogger speakers it was off for some fun! I was sooo excited to have the opportunity to be here! :)
Our first stop was the PlaSmart booths. They had the very fun and exciting PlasmaCar that my children loved. We had a very difficult time pulling the children away to go play at other booths.
Hannah is 4, so she really got the hang of how to use these. Jacob...not so much. He kept putting his feet on the floor and pushing off that way. Hannah was SO good on these PlasmaCars!
Next, we stopped and played with the wooden toys at Plan Toys. My children could have seriously spent the whole day here...there were so many fun toys to play with!
Jacob loved to play with the Plan Toy parking garage. It was complete with people, shrubbery, cars and other fun trucks. He is ALL boy, through and through and he LOVES his cars. So, this was a really fun place for him to be.
After we dragged the children walked away from the Plan Toy booth, we visited The Settlers of Catan giant game board! My children loved hauling the game pieces around and playing with the dice and other parts of the game. This game is a huge favorite of my family's...every time I try to play, I get distracted. But I do know that my family has a blast every time they play it and I would love to learn soon!!
Our next stop was at the Peaceable Kingdom booth, where they had a table set up for the children. My daughter loved working with the stickers and crayons. In this picture she was making a game piece for the Feed The Woozle game. Sound like fun? It was LOADS of fun. :)

So that is a little bit about our time at ChiTag. It was a day that was jam-packed full of fun and games...my children had a blast and I really enjoyed getting to know some of the vendors. I also brought home some fun goodies to share with you all! Stay tuned for some posts about some fantastic products from some of these generous vendors! :)
