TPT presents FFTC's Guide to the MN State Fair

It really is that time of year: time to get ready for  the Great Minnesota Get Together.  I have gone to the State Fair with no kids, with babies, with toddlers, with school age kids, and even with teens.  It's a lot of fun no matter how you go.  And we have partnered with TPT because they know how to help families with small kids have the best experience.

Scroll down for the best guide to the Minnesota State Fair for families.  In this email, we disclose how you can score discount tickets.  We also have a link to the Guide for the Minnesota State Fair.

Join Twin Cities PBS at the “Great Minnesota Get-Together.” 

Stop by the Twin Cities PBS Booth to enjoy family yard games, Imagination Playground Blocks that let your kids' imaginations run wild, and take photos with favorite PBS Kids character cutouts. Parents and caregivers can also visit our private, distraction-free space to feed your child or just take a break.

On Wednesday, August 28th we’re celebrating Minnesota State Fair Kids Day with an opportunity to meet Daniel Tiger from the popular PBS Kids show "Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood" from 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
