    I haven’t been to summerfair since I was a kid but would love to be able to take my kids and let them experience it for the first time.

    I recently developed a passion for photography and I’ve always loved crafts.

    My 5yr old has taken a huge interest in art lately. Mostly drawing and photography. She surprises me sometimes with the photos she takes. She just has a hugely creative side. I bet this would give me a ton of new ideas for things to do with her.

    My favorite is the wearable art – scarves, belt, clothing. My second is items that have a second purpose other than to look at – light switchs, bowls, jewelery

  51. Katie says

    We are a craft loving family! That is how we spent most of the winter. I went to Summerfair with my mom growing up and loved to look at the jewelry. What a great event for Cincinnati families each year!

    We love to do recycle art. We use toilet paper rolls, cans, jars and paper to cut, paint, glue and make the perfect creation.

    I would really like to take my daughters to this fair – I’m trying to get them more interested in creative activities. My favorite “art” is wearable art like creative jewelry that is one-of-a-kind.
