Madagascar Balloon
A
Madagascar Centerpiece will delight the children once they
discover what's inside. Simply fill with toys and candy for a
delightful time. Also makes a great room decoration or
centerpiece.
Center Ring Balloon Pass
Players form the circle for the center ring. They pass the balloon to
each other behind their backs, trying not to hold it for a long time in
their hands. Then after the Ring Master gives the signal the player who
has the balloon in his hands is out of the game. Continue until only one
person is left in the Center Ring!
Clown Tag
This game needs lots of room - like a backyard. Split into two groups -
each team gets their own
Clown Nose
and color of crepe paper. Tie the crepe paper
around the waists of each player - like a belt. The goal is to rip off the
other teams belts before they rip off yours. Once a player gets de-belted,
they sit down. The last person left standing with his belt on wins.
Circus Acts
Stage your own Lion Tamer Show in the center ring.

Black Velour Top Hat.
Hear the Roar! This lion
hat is a great way to be king of the jungle and entertain your guests.
Have guests be performers. Write stunts on paper and let each child pick
one. Then they take turns acting out the stunt: walking a straight line
for a tight rope; dancing like a trained dog; roaring like a lion; walking
and imitating an elephant; stunts like a clown; swinging on a trapeze.
