Do you remember going to the circus as a kid?

I'm thinking of taking my kids, but the tickets are really expensive. Wondering if the memories would be worth it???


Answer
I definitely remember but it was certainly more of an experience than it is now.It was really a circus then. It was outside,not in a building. Not really outside but in a huge tent which had been erected outside. There was no television when I went & it was really a very special thing. Kids see so much on TV now that a circus might seem tame to them.No that is not so. What could be more exciting for a kid than to see the aerialists flying from trapeze to trapeze.They can't see the elephants & live clowns up close & personal either. One thing I would miss about it would be the freak shows they used to have. I wish they hadn't done away with them. Your kids will also be excited when the animal trainer gets busy with the big cats.Be sure to take along enough money to get them some cotton candy.

How to write a children's book about the six senses?? help please?

Q. For psychology, we have to write a children's book (preschool to kindergarten age) about the six senses (sight, sound, taste, touch, smell, and kinisthesis). I was thinking about doing something about a kid whose family runs the circus. Any ideas on how to make that work? Or any ideas other than that? How could I incorporate the senses into a story? Thank you so much!


Answer
okayyy so i think that you should do the circus!!
because they can HEAR the music and SMELL the cotton candy/popcorn/whatever and SEE the big tent and FEEL the elephant's rough skin and TASTE the circus food!
