Join us on Friday, July 17, 2026, during Kids Day at the Isanti County Fair! We’ll have a booth set up and can’t wait to meet your family. Stop by and chat with our Director, Angie, to learn which Little Wilderness programs and events might be the best fit for your child. If you’re a parent who is passionate about connecting kids with nature and supporting our mission, Angie would also love to talk with you about volunteering at one of our upcoming events!
Kids Day is packed with fun for the whole family! From 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., enjoy a variety of FREE activities and events designed to keep kids active and entertained. Admission is FREE for children 7 and under, and just $5 for ages 8 and older.
Be sure to stick around for all the excitement:
Door prize drawings at 10:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
Try your luck at the Catch & Release Rainbow Trout Pond
FREE ice cream for kids 14 and under from Scoops Ice Cream Truck at 10:30 a.m.
Meet Malorie Thorson, the 72nd Princess Kay of the Milky Way
And don’t forget to enjoy all of the fair favorites! Take in the carnival rides, grab a classic corn dog, hand-cut fries, fresh-squeezed lemonade, cheese curds, mini donuts, or a scoop of ice cream. Make time to wander through the 4-H barns, where kids can meet adorable horses, cows, sheep, rabbits, and other farm animals while learning about the hard work of local youth exhibitors.
If you’re looking to stay later, we encourage you to visit the Grandstands to watch the roaring Tractor, Truck, and Semi Pull. You can even find live music at the Bandshell from the band Ragtown!
Whether you’re coming for Kids Day, the animals, the food, or the fun, we hope you’ll stop by the Little Wilderness booth to say hello. We’d love to meet you, answer your questions, and help your family discover your next outdoor adventure! We’ll see you Friday, July 17, 2026, at the Isanti County Fair!
