Hi, I'm not officially a clown, but I have always loved "lame" jokes (or so my friends say), one-liners, easy card- tricks, and my most recent hobby is making balloon animals and toys for my kids. My kids are 2 and 3, the perfect audience for me, a beginner! I've also taught physics classes- and totally entertained the kids with a glass of water on a spinning waiter's tray, bowling balls in the hall, and so on... and I'm certified to teach Biology and Chemistry classes. Small explosions, color- changing liquids- all the magical parts of chemistry that fascinate the kids the most make my job the most fun, and also motivate the students to learn more. I'm waiting for my third child (due the 23rd of April) and doing interviews to teach again this fall- I've been at home raising kids for a couple of years, but I'm ready to teach again... I've noticed that when I can choose anything to do that's fun for me, I like to do clown things. So I'm ready to learn more about what clowns do! I found this board when I was looking for directions to tie a 6- petal balloon flower; that's been tripping me up. I'm pretty good at balloon dogs and bees and swords, so I'm excited to perfect my flowers now...
