Kids Identification and Safety Seat (K.I.S.S.) event July 30 at DuPage Children's Museum in Naperville

The Illinois Tollway and Illinois State Police District 15 are hosting a free Kids Identification and Safety Seat (K.I.S.S.) event in Naperville to provide free kids’ ID cards and inspect and install child safety seats..

The K.I.S.S. event will be held on Saturday, July 30, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the DuPage Children’s Museum located at 301 N. Washington Street in Naperville. Safety seat inspections will take place in the museum’s parking lot and kids’ ID card processing will take place at the entrance to the museum. A Tollway H.E.L.P. truck and snowplow also will be there for kids to explore.

K.I.S.S. event goers are also invited to stay and participate in the Wizarding World of DuPage Children’s Museum activities as part of a downtown Naperville celebration of the release of the latest Harry Potter book, “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” Museum hours on Saturday are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and regular admission rates are $12 for adults and children age 1 and older.

K.I.S.S. events offer parents and caregivers the opportunity to have ID cards created for children age 3 and older. Specially trained professionals take photographs and fingerprints of children 3 and older and gather vital information to include on two personal identification cards – one for home and one for a wallet or purse – that parents and caregivers can reference in an emergency. Neither Illinois State Police nor the Illinois Tollway keeps this information in a database. Once the ID card is issued to the guardian, the information is deleted.
