Sponsored by Infant/Child Enrichment Services the 18th Annual Children's Fair in the Park had lots of things for kids to do.
 
There were booths from many of the pre-schools in the area each
offering hands on crafts.  The clean mud activity was
a success after the kids got their hands in it (toilet paper torn into small bits with soap and water). 
 
The California High Patrol Booth even had a real baby to demonstrate a safe car seat. 
 
The Mariposa Sheriff's department set up an obstacle course that the kids could weave their bikes through . 

There were tumbling mats and tubes to wiggle through. 
 
The Fire Safe Trailer was there to show the kids how to get out of a burning house.  One of the most exciting events was the Mariposa Fire
Department's hook and ladder that the kids could climb into and sound the siren. 

There was  a Martial Arts demonstration and Face Painting.
 
A lot of thought and work went into this event and all the kids seemed
to be having a great time.
