Things are heating up

Cameron came home from school today and told us about the circus training all the kids in his year are participating in at school. Today the kids got to try out all the cool stuff - unicycles, juggling equipment, huge balls to walk on - so the circus coordinator could assess the kids' talents. They will work toward each kid showing 3 different "circus acts".

Cameron was juggling clubs while riding a unicycle and the coordinator told him he was good at juggling the clubs. So he asked Cameron if he'd like to try juggling flaming torches (while standing still). He said he could teach Cameron to do it. Cameron (of course) said "Oh yeah!" And when the coordinator asked 2 teachers if it would be alright if he did it, they said they thought he should be able to do it. So, we're supposed to pick up some juggling clubs so he can practice at home and then later the guy will teach him how to do it with lit torches. The shows are at the end of February. I'll keep you posted!
