9-year-old dinosaur whiz takes home a 1st place prize for his dinosaur exhibit

Dinosaur exhibit at the Kern County Fair
Posted

The Kern County Fair hosts many exhibits displaying projects that people put together during the summer.

9-year-old Elijah Stevenson worked on a dinosaur exhibit that he put together alongside his mom and grandparents.

Elijah has a collection of over 100 dinosaurs and his mom Nerissa says he has loved them since he was a toddler.

“ One of the beautiful things is that because Elijah has loved dinosaurs so much, since he was 2 years old. I honed that, and even before he was 4 years old he can name over 30 dinosaurs,” said Nerissa.

Elijah got first place for his exhibit and it will be at the Kern County Fair until Sunday, September 30th.
