[12:03.69]Fairs
[12:05.49]Millions of Americans enjoy visiting state and county fairs in August, September and October.
[12:13.17]These agricultural fairs were traditionally held to honor the work of local farmers.
[12:20.01]Farmers and their families came to the fair
[12:23.16]to show their crops and animals and compete for prizes.
[12:27.08]The sounds, smells and tastes of state fairs are part of the memory of childhood for many Americans.
[12:35.17]People enjoy hot corn covered in melted butter,
[12:39.06]sticky sweet cotton candy and ice cream.
[12:42.43]State and county fairs offer many things for children and adults to enjoy:
[12:48.74]games, rides, cultural exhibits and famous entertainers.
[12:54.14]There is also lots of friendly competition.
[12:57.49]Children and adults bring the farm animals and vegetables they have raised.
[13:03.17]They also bring arts and crafts projects and homemade foods.
[13:08.01]Judges then choose the best-looking pig
[13:11.57]or the largest pumpkin or the tastiest apple pie.
[13:15.47]The winners receive the highest honor, a blue ribbon.
