Hey Jacksonville peeps – The circus is coming! We are SO excited about taking Maggie to the circus in a few weeks. It will be her first time and I haven’t been since I was a child, so it will be quite an adventure for us!

(Keep reading to see how you can win a family four pack of tickets for opening night!)
I’m excited about seeing the world-famous clowns and I just read about The Human Fuse – he rockets across the sky, sounds like so much fun! I really think Maggie is going to love seeing all of the animals too!

My little guy has never been to the circus either and I bet he would love it, just like Maggie. It's been a while since I went to a circus too, but I think my favorite thing when I was a kid was the animals and the trapeze. Carrie, have a great time with your family!

I am a fan of your Carrie with Children on Facebook. I am one of the oddballs my favorite thing of the circus is the cotton candy. Since opening night is on a Thursday I would not be able to attend but I never win anyway. I would love to take my grandson, Leland. He has never been to the circus but he loves going to the zoo so I think that would be his favorite part of the circus.

So exiciting… I went to school with a flying Wallenda so I have to say the trapeze or acrobats! We just adopted a little girl and this would be a great thing for us to do with her. looking forward to seeing the elephants too!

Wow, I haven't been to the circus since I was a kid either! My favorite then was the lions or maybe the trapeze – I wonder how much things have changed? I also remember one time i got to ride an elephant, but that was creepy. I hope you guys have a great time! It was always such a fun time when my grandparents used to take us!

I would so love to take my family to the Circus. My husband and kids ages 8 and 7 (twins) have never been. We have been talking about it but its real expensive to take a family of 5. I would love my kids to see the animals at the circus. The elephants are awesome. Thanks for the chance to win tickets. Stephanie North

I have never been to the circus at 34 years old and I can’t wait to experience it with my two year old son. I am most looking forward to the tiger show and my son will love the horses!

My favorite part of circus is the trapeze – love watching those folks – amazing! Love the fun of the circus feel and kids do too!

My favorite thing to see at the circus is the interaction of the children with the animals. It makes my heart smile when I see the excitement on their faces. There is nothing more moving in life other than witnessing a child develop through the eyes of God’s most amazing creations. Thank you for your interest in my thoughts.
