We'll admit it: As fun as the holiday season is (Presents! Lights! Pie!), spending that much one-on-one time with your extended family can be seriously stressful, too. After all, how many times can we grin and bear it when Mom reminds us that we're still single? Instead of pulling your hair out, we suggest going with the flow (and maybe keeping a bottle of wine on hand). After all, for better or for worse, our relatives are an integral part of the season, so we may as well have some fun with them, right?
Well, to make that a little easier, we rounded up some of our favorite ways to entertain all your cousins-once-removed in the Windy City—no tourist traps included. Whether it's going high-end with tea at a fancy hotel, trying out the newest resto, or getting your laugh on at an irreverent play (maybe leave Grandma home for that one), our list has something for everyone. Even your angsty teenage cousin will have a blast, we swear.
