Friday is Kids Day at Swedish Days in Geneva, and the fun extends all day and well into the night.
Saturday and Sunday provide a wonderful grand finale, with a bunch of new attractions, including the Arts & Crafts Show on Saturday and Toddler Town on Saturday and Sunday.

More Food!
You can’t go to Swedish Days without trying out their Swedish meatballs!
I ordered my Swedish meatballs with a sandwich. The two meatballs were both drizzled in a gravy.
The meatballs were both filling and delicious; I’m sure that when I go back to Swedish Days again I’ll get more.
Slide: Crowds of parents and children gather around the inflatable slide.The children can’t contain their excitement as they all try to get in line to slide down the slide.
Fun And Games!
Friday is Kid’s Day for Swedish Days. Children from all ages and sizes gather around to play various types of games.
Some games are set up directly in the street and others are set up under vendor’s stall. A few of the stalls offered raffles for children and others offered activities for children.
Wheel!
I got a closer look at one of the vendor’s activity for children for Kid’s Day.
The Kyuki-Do Martial Arts had a spinning wheel that had several different options on it.
One of the options have children a chance to break a board and another option gave children a treat if the spinner landed on the section.
