Host a Family Olympics

Obstacle Course: Help your children plan and create a safe course they can go over, under, around, and through. For example, run around trees or jump over towels.

Balloon Volleyball: Designate two sides of a “court” and have players on either side bat a balloon back and forth.

Tumbling Tornadoes: Let your child tumble as the wish on a safe, soft surface.

Cross the Creek: Using tape or chalk, make two lines that are a food apart. Players hop or run across the “creek.” They can also look for ways to build bridges.

Cooperative Race: Have partners link a part of their bodies together (such as elbows or hands) and run to a finish line.

Awards Ceremony: Have your child create Olympic medals and hold a medal ceremony.
