From Craig's Lost Chicago site.

KIDDIELAND--  Melrose Park (1929-2009)
BELL'S APPLE ORCHARD--  Lake Zurich  (1939-1998)  (No fall complete without a trip there for apples.)  Now, there is a photo-enforced light located by its former location, one of many for Lake Zurich.)
MILL RUN PLAYHOUSE--  Niles (near Golf Mill mall) (1965-1984)

THE SPINDLE--  Berwyn (1989-2008)  (All those full-size cars on a huge spindle.)
OLSON MEMORIAL PARK--  Chicago (1935-1971)
53 DRIVE-IN--  Palatine  (1960-1986)  (Twin-screens, now the UPS site.)

HAYMAKERS--  Chicago Heights (19??-1984)
THE HUB ROLLER RINK--  3 Chicago locations (1950-1974)
SANTA'S VILLAGE--  Dundee  (1959-2006)  Has since reopened in reconfigured form.
