Use a picture of a cute clown juggling. Tape the clown to a wall. Have circles around the same size that the clown is juggle that have each letter of the alphabet written on them. You will need 2 sets of letters, one for taping to the wall and one for handing to the children. With one set of letters you are going to mix up the letters and tape 3 to 4 different letters on the wall so it appears that the clown is juggling the letters. Also, give the children circles that also contain each letter of the alphabet. The children will be matching their letters onto the juggling clown. To extend this activity you could work with the children to try and think of different animals that start with each letter or items you can find at the circus. You could chart the children’s responses if you wanted to.

First, have the children lie on butcher paper and trace their body. Next, you can cut out the outline of their body or leave it on the butcher paper without cutting it out. Once the outline is ready they can glue items such as tissue paper, pom pom balls, buttons, ribbon or anything colorful to their clown body. You can also encourage children to use markers to color with.
