Winter Olympic fever has hit our home, and the family is cuddled up on the sofa watching it as I type. The Winter Olympics have always been my favourite, but that could just be the Canadian in me! The gracefulness and creativity of the figure skating, the thrill of speed with the Bobsled, Luge, and Skeleton. And there are more events added for the first time this year. I’m excited to be sharing this experience with my children. We’re setting aside some time each day to watch a new to them sport. And of course, we’ll be having some Olympic-themed fun learning and crafts over the next two weeks. If you’re looking for some Winter Olympic fun for kids, here are some fun and creative ideas for you to try! If you’re looking for Valentine’s Treats, check out my features from last week’s Mom’s Library.
Winter Olympic Fun For Kids
Little Olympians can get awfully hungry, here’s a winning treat for them by Coffee With Us 3.
Beck, is doing his first guest post for Enchanted Homeschooling Mom and takes us through his visit to an Olympic training centre. What an experience that must have been!
And if you can’t make it to a ‘real’ Olympic rink, After School For Smarty Pants has made this brilliant Olympic Rink for small world play. I want one myself!
Crayon Box Chronicles has some Olympic origami bracelets for the kids to make.
Every Star is Different has an Olympiad of learning activities for kids to do with an Olympic theme.
