Ethan's preschool class had an Olympic day today. It was so fun, and the kids loved it. I went and helped out with one of the 'events'.
This was the event I helped out with. It was called "Ping Pong Letter Matching". Each student drew a ping pong ball with a lower case letter on it and they had to blow it across the floor into the matching upper case letter hole. They loved it!

Each kid had a "Medal Count" chart. After they did the activity they colored the corresponding box, yellow (gold), gray (silver) or orange (bronze).

Another activity was the "Penguin Race". They had to keep a bag of rice between their knees, waddle down the lane to pick up a marshmallow and take it back to the other end and put it in the cup. Whoever had the most amount of marshmallows at the end of 2 minutes won!

After the all the events were over, each student was awarded a medal and stood for the National Anthem. Such a fun day!
Then for some play time in the big room!
