Engineering savvy and childlike whimsy overlap at the increasingly popular Maker Faire, as scores of techies, crafters, artists, and visionaries erect an imaginative playland for adults and kids alike. With several exhibit halls and an expansive outdoor area, the Faire is so full of entertaining inventions — muffin-shaped vehicles and a laser harp, for instance — that an exploration strategy might be needed to catch it all. Once you've had your fill, check out power-tool drag races, go for a ride on a pedal-powered Ferris wheel, and splurge at the Bazaar Bizarre craft faire.
