Like most everyone else, we've really been enjoying following the Olympics. It's been a great way to sneak some learning into our summer. :) We'll start the year with a study of Ancient Greece, so the Olympics are a perfect prelude! We've done a few of the zillions of Olympic activities from Pinterest. And Jon and I have been staying up way too late watching various events on television. It's a good thing this only happens once every four years!

Our cable package (ATT) has a great feature where we can check stats and see highlights. We've been following the medal count here. Don't you love our high-tech tv? ;) |
Ray enjoyed playing "Opening Ceremony Bingo" |
We made our own medals. |
Our future Olympian! Notice the bandaged hand --- too much training on the monkey bars! |
This was a great library find! It was a really fun way to teach the kids a bit about London. |
We've been working through these books from Enchanted Learning. |
I ordered this book from Amazon. We're going to read it this week. |
This poster of the Olympic events has been a big hit. I printed it from a link on Pinterest. |
A fun Olympic ring art project. |
I hope you're enjoying the Olympics as much as we are! Go Team USA!
