As you have seen during the last three weeks, I have been a little excited about the Olympics and sharing them with JDaniel. I thought I would share with you all the posts I have written about this Olympics for kids this summer.
Olympics for Kids Activities and Meals
Food Creations
The Olympic Symbols were displayed in a bento box in a post called Olympics for Kids: Olympic Symbols Snack.
There was a gold medal meal that featured a fruit strip and cookie gold medal. There was also a cheese popcorn torch in that meal.
As part of a Bento Bloggers Olympic Hop, I shared an Elympic themed bento snack based on the book Elympics.
I shared an edible Olympic torch creation on the Kid’s Activities blog.
There was a Fruit Filled Olympic Ring Breakfast that was a hit with JDaniel.
Finally I created a British Flag Fruit Creation that was filled with fruits I knew would earn a gold medal with JDaniel.
Olympic Values Series
The first post in the series was called Olympic Values: Respect and focused on self respect and knowing one’s limit.
The second post was called Olympic Values: Growing Excellence and was about doing your best.
The final post in the series looks at the Olympic Values: Friendship and I talked about JDaniel’s working on making new friends.
Crafts and Learning Activities
The two activities in the top row are from posts I wrote for the Kids Activities Blog. The first activity is called Olympics of Kids: Color Sorting and the second is called Olympics for Kids: Laurel Wreath.
The first post in the second row Olympics for Kids: Two Torch Painting Projects was a lot of fun to create with JDaniel.
The second post in the second row Olympics for Kids: Long Distance Biking could have been called Getting Him to Ride to a Shadow. JDaniel rode from tree shadow to tree shadow in this post.
If you try any of these activities, please leave me a comment below telling me which one you selected.
