We have such an Endless Summer Projects treat in store for you today! Not 1, but 5 amazing posts, all about putting on a circus in your backyard! We’ve teamed up with Minted to bring you everything from DIY projects to food ideas to decor and more–we’ve got every detailed covered!

Our main project this week comes from Jennifer of Classic Play. She’s got an awesome, family-friendly tutorial for making your own stilts! I remember learning to walk on stilts in elementary school PE, and I know my kids would go crazy for this fun project. Check out Classic Play for the full tutorial!
