A kid's view of Skokie

Life in Skokie through the eyes of a nine-year-old boy.
If you like Panda Express you're in for a treat! There is one in a walkable, runnable, joggable, bikeable, scooterable distance from the house. When you're done eating maybe you want some dessert. Then you can just walk around the corner to Dunkin' Donuts. Maybe after that you're still up for a walk. If so, you can go to Lockwood Park just across the street!

If you have kids you are VERY lucky. The camps are awesome! Skokie has nature camp, circus camp, outside and inside sports camp, acting camp, culture camp, golf camp, science camp and more.

I might be back with more fun information about Skokie!

  1. Kaufman's Bagels and Deli would not be too far either. As a kid I loved their big garlicy pickles...still do.

  2. The one place you are missing on your list of Skokie Food places is Pat's Place at 5025 Oakton, just west of Annie's and Tub Tim Thai and east of Sweety Pies. 70s decor with 70s prices. I tip more than 15%, which makes me look like a big spender, but why should the waitstaff got so little when they are so good. Everyone in Skokie should go there and meet Pat, who will remember you and details of your life forever.
