Circus Week

 This was by far one of my favorite weeks.  We started out by watching a promo DVD from Ringling Brothers Circus so that we could plan our circus acts.  Then we spent the week practicing, making decorations and putting together costumes for the big performance on Friday for Nana and our cousins.

Welcome to the Circus!

Our Ringmaster

We made this cute circus tent play set found here
and clown hats.  We did some fun preschool circus worksheets.  For lunch after the performance we ate corn dogs, popcorn, peanuts, circus animal cookies, circus peanuts (those orange marshmallow things) and fresh lemonade.  And now, for your viewing pleasure,  here is the grand performance!  Thanks Tammy for being the cinematographer!
