She'd fly through the air with the greatest of ease, the daring young kid on the flying trapeze ...

It's true that kids' extra-curriculars today seem to have no limits. It almost makes a parent jealous. Many of us would never have thought, back in the days when "after-school activity" meant roaming the neighborhood park and birthday parties were a cake, a tail and a donkey, that our own kids would study trapeze.

But study they will, yours anyway, if you are the lucky winner of today's Big Gift Giveaway, a $250 gift certificate to SANCA, the School of Acrobatics & New Circus Arts). SANCA is dedicated to improving the mental and physical health of children of all ages and abilities by engaging them in the joyous creativity of acrobatics and circus arts. Classes include acrobatics, aerial (trapeze and fabric), juggling, tightwire, trampoline, family circus, unicycle, German wheel, hoop, wire walking, contortion (yikes) and sleight-of-hand. SANCA also offers classes for tots, private parties, and camps.

To channel your kid for a second: What are you waiting for?!
