Hi there....here are some suggestions for you....

First, you can always go to Lincoln Park Zoo and walk around there....no admission fees and you could even bring your own lunch...so a bonus.

While you're at the Zoo you can always walk out towards the lakefront.....heck walk either all the way up to Hollywood Beach or the other direction towards downtown and south (Hyde Park)....lots of parks along the way.

You never did mention if you lived in the city or suburbs....if you do live in the city or in one of the suburbs right outside of Chicago, check your local Public Library....if you have a valid card you would be eligible to check out free passes to some o the museums of Chicago such as the Field Museum, Art Institute, Museum of Science and Industry, and even the Chicago History Museum....you have a week to use a pass....now this only gets you in for general admission but there is always a lot to see at the Chicago Museums.

Don't forget to check out the different fairs that Chicago has to offer....free to get in all you would need is money for food. Taste of Chicago has free entertainment in concerts and they have a good lineup this year. You can also check out the City of Chicago website I posted below...Daley Center in the Loop always has free programs during the day.

Hope this helps....you can check out the links below. Have fun this summer!

If u live in the northside. There are a lot of Hookah Places to go to. Like Cafe Nefertiti on Lawrence Street and Carthage Cafe on Foster Street. A lot of High School Seniors go there to chill and smoke hookah every night. Or u want something fun and scary at night.... Drive to Forest Way of Winnetka, IL. Take 94N exit on Willow East and turn left on Forest Way. This drive is the scariest drive in IL.
