If you have been reading here for a while you have probably heard me explain why I am so attached to the Olympics. If not I’ll catch you up. My grandma was an Olympian and even though she died before I was born I have always felt extra close to my memories of digging through the trunks of her memorabilia whenever I could including her Olympic silver medal that always told me in it’s own way that girls could do anything. All of this to say I love the Olympics and making Olympic crafts to celebrate !

I am a huge fan of the Olympics and loved seeing the information about your Olympian grandmother! I will definitely be doing some of these things with my kids!

Thanks for all the wonderful ideas! Although I have no Olympians in my family, my Dad, a retired PE teacher, has attended Summer Olympics since 1976…This year he went to the trials in Eugene, OR for the first time instead of heading to London. My kids LOVE the Olympics…I even ordered all the figures from PlayMobil and we will make a track/swimming pool/gymnasium this week as shown in this link…and will add your activities to our week of international celebrations!! Thanks!!

Olympic Torch is my favorite. It has always been a popular and easy craft for kids. I think, it is the same in Rio Olympics.
