MR. MARIO'S SECRET CIRCUS

The child and I made another Saturday morning trip to King's Books to witness and participate in the wonder that is Mr. Mario's Secret Circus.


(1) Our season pass button to Mr. Mario's Secret Circus.


(2) Balloon tricks with Mr. Mario.


(3) The tale of the Frog Prince as told by storyteller Hilda Gabbygirl.


(4) Juggling and other shenanigans with Mr. Mario.


(5) Interactive songs with Cowboy Buck, former manager, singer, and songwriter with The New Christy Minstrels. Most of the time, Cowboy Buck had all of us on our feet, providing hand motions for songs and singing responsively.

(Somehow, once again, Troy's Work Table was called up on stage. Four fathers had to dance "in unison" behind Cowboy Buck while they chewed bubblegum they were readying for a bubble blowing contest. Troy's Work Table blew the most bubbles, as well as the largest bubble. The latter garnered Troy's Work Table a CD of Cowboy Buck & Elizabeth songs for winning the contest, as well as a round of applause shared with the other dads.)
