This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for your participation.
The winner is Beth.
Congratulations!

For some reason, we don’t have too many circus’ that some to town. I’m not sure why. I would love for my girls to see The Big Top in person!

However, for the rest of you lucky people, The Ringling Bros. Circus just may be coming to a town near you! How great would it be to take the family to see the animal shows, clown acts, high wire trapeeze, jugglers, and much more family fun? And if you get there an hour early, you’ll be able to see an elephant paint, try on a costume, clown around, work those muscles, shake paws with a performing pound puppy and more with your host, Leo Acton. Best of all, this early access is FREE for all ticket holders!

    The last circus we went to was a Shriners’ Circus, I believe. We got free tickets through the Head Start program the boys were attending at the time. Before the circus started, the kids could go down onto the floor of the auditorium and interact with some of the animals, and they had one of those pumped up slide thingies. Watching the kids have fun was my favorite part by a lo.o.o.o.ng shot!

  2. Abby says:

    My favorite part of the circus is the junk food. The popcorn, peanuts and cotton candy!
