Seriously, I thought you were joking when you mentioned scoliosauropod...phobia. Really ah?? :shock:Coulrophobia is an abnormal or exaggerated fear of clowns. The term is common, but is not commonly used in psychology. The prefix \"coulro-\" comes from the Ancient Greek κωλοβαθριστής (kōlobathristēs), “one who goes on stilts”.
Coulrophobia can also be said to extend to a fear of covering up one's face with paint—the idea of hiding recognisable features under a layer of face paint can also unsettle coulrophobia sufferers.
That's us.

I do not think this is a cause for concern as they should outgrow it gradually... DS1 at the age of five was still terrified of Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy characters when we went to Disneyland HK. He liked watching them on tv, but when he saw the characters in person... I think he freaked out. It was so embarrassing as he was literally hysterical and screaming when the characters came over to our breakfast table to take photos together :oops:
When he was slightly younger, he was also afraid of a dummy life sized horse pulling a carriage when we went to see christmas displays at a mall, the same with mannequins at display windows...
He just turned 7 a few days ago... Am thankful that he kinda of outgrew that
