Wow. . .this past weekend I had the pleasure of going to the Maker Faire. Our good friends brought my husband last year, and now after attending myself, I have a feeling that this will become a must-visit for years to come.
My kids, ages 8 and 6, both found multiple things they couldn't pull away from. It was a truly amazing experience with so much to touch, learn and quite literally - gawk at. I think I have described it to many since as the carni-explori-erector-gorge (festival food!) faire.
Next year I will go more prepared. . like buying tickets online in advance, we waited in line for 40 minutes. And will bring more cash. . .lots to purchase at the Craft area of the fairgrounds.
Here is the website Craft : Make : Hack : Play, see for yourself, and I'll see you there in '09!
i meant to do that!
sounds like fun :)
my daughter was in a parade saturday in palo alto. it was all about active kids. there were thousands + it all ended at a carnival.
i'll use your tips next year!
