We took the kids to the circus for the first time; they were all very excited! It was a Shriner's circus. Throughout the performance you would think they didn't enjoy it at all. They all sat stalk still, staring with wide eyes and straight mouths. Occasionally Jack would react with a smile but for the most part it was serious observation.
We saw tightrope walkers, acrobats, horses, elephants, motorcycle riders all the typical circus acts. It was long show, 2 hours. The show didn't get over until 9:00 pm; I didn't think Amelia was going to make it but she did.
On the way home I asked what everyone's favorite thing was.
Jacob: the first dance number (the whole circus staff did a Carnival dance number)
Jack: the motorcycles in the Cage of Death and a Spider-man acrobat
Amelia: the motorcycles
All of them asked on the way home if we could go again, so even though there was not much external response apparently they enjoyed themselves. :)
