The Renaissance Faire is a great day of fun for families, kids and adults alike. My children were lucky enough to have this on their school trip agendas, and they loved it! Their trip was to the Kutztown area fair, however, that one is done for the year, so I opted to do this article on the Pittsburgh Pennsylvania Renaissance fair, as the time for that one is quickly approaching. Here's a short guide to delightful day.

Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival For The Children

There is a wonderful section geared toward children called the Children's Realm. In the wonderful kingdom there, children get to let their imaginations roam back to past days as the Queen and King spend time with them, telling them stories and welcoming them to their kingdom. There are fun contests for adults and children alike such as slaying the dragon. There are rides, crafts, and wonderful adventures to test the imaginations of both children and adults.

Pittsburgh Renaissance Festival Themes

For every weekend there is a theme. To find out each theme and how that theme will be celebrated, please visit PITTSBURGH RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL "It's an Adventure to the Past" THEMED WEEKENDS

    I'm doing some quick return comments today. I've really got to catch up with my writing, but I had to make sure to get a webpage done, too! Then, I've got a lot of things happening for which I'll need money! I'll have to get my butt in gear and write, write, write, write. However, please, also do me a favor and visit www.everlastinglight.tk

    You just brought back some memories. Kutztown: I never appreciated it when I was a kid, but now as an adult, I see why my parents enjoyed it. The funnel cakes were good, though.
