As most people know the South Florida Fairgrounds hosts the annual South Florida Fair every January. If you and/or your kids like carni rides, then you have to check it out. If, like me, that's not your thing, you can stroll through the Expo Center and learn about whatever theme the year brings (last year was Vermont). For the younger set there's also a petting zoo and pig races. That was fun to watch!
Usually parking is included in ticket prices, but it's such a maze getting in and out; good luck remembering where you parked!
Throughout the year there are also other events going on here for families (like at Easter), crafter's (Buckler's craft fair), and various collectors (antiques, guns, computers, etc.) Admission price varies, so call ahead or look it up on the Internet.
