Ever since I was a little girl I have enjoyed going to the circus. I remember the circus tents, the clowns, the animals and I even remember getting to take a ride on the back of an elephant when I was young and I thought it was the coolest thing to do ever.
Now that I have my own children, I try to take them to the circus whenever the Ringling Bros. and Barnun & Bailey’s “The Greatest Show On Earth” comes to my town. The circus only comes one a year, so I got to make sure to take the kids when they are here.
Last year I took my kids and it was a total BLAST. Before the show started, the circus had a “pre-show” that allowed us to see the animals up close and my son still talks to this day about the zebra that kept shaking his head at us.
The zebra isn’t the only thing my 4 year old son remembers at the pre-show last year.
He also likes to mention these silly elephants, but I won’t tell you why he remembers them so well. Lets just say they were putting on their own little performance for us that my son is probably going to remember forever.
Next month, the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus is coming to Sacramento on September 6, 2012 through September 9, 2012 with their new “Dragons” show that is sure to be a HIT. For the first time in history, myth and mystery will share the arena at the Power Balance Pavilion. I love dragons and so does my son so I know we are going to LOVE the show next month.
Take a peek at the video below to show you why you want to go too!
