The Harford County Farm Fair Kidway presents an opportunity for children to enjoy hand crafted skill games, Bounce in the Moonwalk, submerge themselves in the Sea of Balls, Make-a-Button, get their face painted and walk away with prizes galore. All included in the $ 1.00 price of admission to the Fair!
Developed by John H. O'Neill of
Forest Hill, one of the original chairmen of the revitalized Harford County
Farm Fair, the Kidway maintains its goal of entertaining children with hand
made skill games such as Mighty Man, Ring Toss, Bean Bag Toss, Milk Can Toss,
Football Toss, Dragon Slayer, Muffin Madness, Chicken in a Pot and classics
such as the Sand Box and Fish Pond. There is an opportunity to win a stuffed
pig or cow at Pik-a-Pop and take a chance with Plinko. A group of local youth
volunteers is on hand to paint an original design on your child's face or
hand and creativity flows at the Make-A-Button stand where children design
their own Farm Fair souvenir pin-on button. There is a winner every time and
every child gets a prize, as many times as they like. The Games under the
Big Tent at the Kidway are complemented by the Moon Walk inflatable bouncing
room and the Sea of Balls
is a guaranteed fun place to play-off energy.
Hourly sessions of Barnyard Bingo are offered throughout the Fair with prizes for every game. The Kidway Tent is located at the Showmobile where parents can rest and enjoy entertainment while their children make the rounds of the games.
The Farm Fair has long promoted the ideal that people can make their own fun and are committed to providing a free, non-mechanical Kidway, without the noise and expense of a Midway.
In addition to the Kidway, children of all ages enjoy the annual Farm Fair Contests held on Saturday and Sunday. Beginning at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, the Farm Fair Baby Costume Contest brings out the creativity of folks from all over the tri-County region, as families compete to dress their little ones as farmers and farmerettes. Competitors range in age from newborn to 3 years.

At 3:00 p.m. is the juicy Watermelon Eating Contest which brings out folks of all ages to compete to eat their sweet summer melon faster than anyone else in their age class. Contestants range from 5 years to adult.
On Sunday, beginning at 1:00 pm. is the Harford County Public Library Literary Spelling Bee. Contestant Classes range from First Grade through Adult. The library staff tests contestants' knowledge of literature, as well as their ability to spell correctly.
