Free Children's Expo Includes Bicycle Helmets, Car Seat Checks

The 3^rd Annual Tampa Children’s Expo will be held on Saturday, March 23 at the Florida State Fairgrounds Expo Hall from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Admission is free.

The Tampa Children’s Expo is part of the non-profit organization, Karing About Kids, Inc.  Our mission is to educate families about the health and safety of children, help other local children’s charities in the cities of our Expos and always provide free events for the families in the community.

The goal of each Expo is to produce a great event in a safe, family-friendly environment that will leave children happy and parents educated about products and resources that are available to them. Our audience consists of a pregnant mom through families with children in elementary school.

We give away over 400 free bicycle helmets that are fitted to each individual child’s head, process over 300 free child safety ID cards, conduct free car seat checks outside the event by certified technicians, set up Information Stations with information related to children such as water safety, home safety, breastfeeding, poison control, immunization education and more.

Our Sponsors for the Tampa Children’s Expo include: Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, Fresh From Florida, Florida Dairy Farmers, Sunshine State HealthPlan, Sanofi Pasteur, St. Joseph’s Children’s Hospital, Tampa Bay Parenting, Amazing Jumps, GameTime and other great, local partners who, with their support, allow us to keep the Children’s Expos free to families.  We also produce the same Children’s Expo annually in Orlando, Miami & Jacksonville.
