Nick Cannon visits Chicago prison for Christmas before celebrating with Mariah Carey and kids
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Nick Cannon visited inmates at a Chicago prison for Christmas before celebrating with his children.
"Inside with my guys Today! Cook County! In Chicago Trying to bring a few smiles for the holidays," Cannon, 38, wrote on Instagram over the weekend. "Don't forget about our family locked down in the system #Solid."
In addition to visiting prisoners, the "Wildin' Out" host also stopped to see family members of those whose lives were lost to violence in his hometown.

Carey and the twins, affectionately dubbed Dem Babies, will celebrate in Aspen, Colo., while Bell will be in Los Angeles with Golden.
Early Christmas Eve, an understandably exhausted Cannon posted a selfie with daughter Monroe in Aspen with the caption, "When your daughter catches the rare occasion of you sleeping! 'Daddy, I thought you don't ever sleep?' #MissMonroe."
