Circus Elephant - tracing and painting

Circus Elephant

We took Aadya for a circus show when she was little more than two years. Because Aadya loved animals we thought she would like the plays which had animals in it. It was only once that we took her for circus. In our childhood, I remember going for circus shows more than movies. Those days we used to enthusiastically watch the elephants standing on two legs or balancing themselves on the beach balls. The wild animals like a tiger or lion behaving to mans alarm was shocking! Never did we think whats going on these poor animals thoughts then.

But Aadya had a different feeling altogether after watching the animals perform.
She felt extremely sorry for the animals going through unnecessary pain and suffering when these wild animals were trained and forced to perform. She liked to spend more time outside with the animals than watch the play inside.

Below is one of the picture we took after the show that day; Aadya acting like a horse :)

Aadya liked the picture from one of her coloring book. So she traced and painted the elephant on the beach ball.
