Summer Camp-Week 6: UNDER THE BIG TOP

Lions, tigers, and …clowns, oh my! It’s been a lot of fun here under the big tent, learning about the different types of people, animals, and acts at the circus! We were amazed to learn about the clowns, jugglers, strong man, acrobats, and so much more! We even practiced some acrobatic moves and circus animal poses in Yoga class!

Books like “Circus Caps For Sale”, “Clifford Goes To The Circus”, “Circus”, and “You see A Circus, I See…”captivated us and made us feel like we were right there in the stands under the big top! We learned to sign “circus”, “lion”, “elephant”, and “dog”. We enjoyed showing the toddlers these signs when they visited our classroom. You could hear us singing “I am walking Through The Circus” during circle time and as we walked through the hallways. Best of all, we had some silly clown dress up time! Oh, we looked super silly and that made us giggle…A LOT!

During our field trip to Monster Mini Golf, we saw all sorts of silly characters, some spooky monsters, and even a GIANT clown! We loved how our clothes were glowing in dark and all the bright colorful lights made us feel like we were part of the circus ourselves!
