City Park in Appleton has a playground and a pavilion. There are bathrooms too, but I don't know if they are open all the time or only for special events. There are also tennis courts.

Preview Post: Arbutus Park
Arbutus Park in Appleton looks to be a playground and a grassy area. There are picnic tables, but no shelter. There are also no restrooms.

Preview Post: Alicia Park
Alicia Park looks like a nice neighborhood park for kids. There is a full pavilion and handicapped-accessible playground. There are bathrooms, but I am not sure if they are open all the time or only with rental of the pavilion.

Circus World Museum
Circus World Museum is Baraboo's most famous tourist attraction. We got lucky enough to get a coupon through the library's summer reading program, and the younger kiddo was free, so that worked out well for us too.
We started out by walking through the museum, which was lots of fun because many of the exhibits are interactive. I will say a few of them seem to be getting a little bit run down, but still fun and still worked.
Our next stop was the tiger show. It was quite amazing. I think the adults were even more impressed than the kids.
The circus definitely abounds throughout the grounds.
There are remnants of the big top glory days...
and current action to take in.
Our whole family's favorite part was the live circus - with elephants! There were plenty of animal acts as well as human.
It was a great day of fun for the whole family. It could definitely get expensive because there were lots of (pricey) extras to add on once you are in the place, but the shows were all included.
I do believe the shows are contracted, so they change from year to year.
