Circus Fun

 

The circus is the only fun you can buy that is good for you.
―Ernest Hemingway









My father was in an army band with a circus band musician, and was impressed with how fast he could play.
 


Fun music


The band at the circus is like the score to a movie: it increases excitement and underscores everything that is happening.



And what would a circus parade be without music?

Circus fun at home


Toys and games help children of all ages imagine or relive the circus experience.

 

 

 

Or make
your own fun!




STEP RIGHT UP!
