Is anyone else here besides me aware that this is National Clown week? There are variety of ways to celebrate it, i.e. Make clowns out of clay. Create your own clown hat. Make collages by cutting circus characters and animals out of magazines. Decorate paper plates to look like a clown face, complete with a red pom-pom nose. Make it into a mask if you want! Make a Circus Train. Make yourself a simple Clown Costume. ----------------------------------------------------------- Got questions? Get answers over the phone at Keen.com.
