I’m probably the biggest Olympic fan! I love watching as many sports as I can, especially the obscure ones like table tennis and trampoline. Since my current charges are toddlers, learning about the world through the Olympics is kinda off the table! Toddlers have a hard enough time knowing what town they live in let alone understand the concept of countries. I didn’t want the Olympics to pass me by without a few ideas to get us excited!

What a fun way to get kids up and moving than setting up your own outdoor track and field events! You can find some great ideas in our Outdoor Activity Post. (Click the picture!)
