Instructions:
If your child likes the circus, you can sponsor one right in your own living room or play room. Here are some suggestions:
Make a Big Top by throwing a sheet over a table – or place six chairs in a circle, then drape a sheet over the backs.
Fill the tent with plenty of stuffed animals (the performers).
If you have face paints, you can make your child up as a clown; one of your T-shirts and shoes will make a fine outfit.
You can also provide some boxes for the stuffed animals to sit in.
Connect the boxes with string, and you have a circus train.
Turn some round plastic containers or cups upside down when it’s time for the tricks to begin.
If your child has a stuffed animal tiger or lion, make a cage, then unleash the beast so your child can perform feats of daring.
Of course, you’ll need some refreshments, so whip up some popcorn.
Then hand out tickets – which your child has decorated – to other siblings, friends, relatives, etc.
At our house we have one important rule – all circus performers also perform cleanup duty. That’s show biz.
