The Nevada County Fair hosts “Kid’s Corner at the Fair” August 11th through August 15th daily from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. If your family includes small children under the age of six, please come and visit Kid’s Corner, which is located to the left of the Gate 1 entrance, just past the Railroad Museum. This area at the fair provides a quiet respite spot for the children, which now includes a nursing & diaper changing station and a variety of free, fun, and educational activities for the youngest fairgoers. There will be ongoing music activities and story reading, along with a book giveaway. 

There will also be the return of the simulated milking cow, where youngsters can try their hand at milking.  Other activities include:  play with bubbles, play dough, water play, and crafting ornamental tree hangers for our wishing tree. Kid’s Corner is offered through a collaboration of partners between:  the Child Care Coordinating Council, First 5 Nevada County, Grass Valley School Readiness, Gold Country Association for the Education of Young Children, Nevada County Fair, Nevada County Superintendent of Schools, Placer Community Action Council—Head Start, Sierra College, the Breast Feeding Coalition, and Sierra Nevada Children’s Services.
