Are you ready for the Olympics?

Olympic torch

Explain to the children than an Olympic torch bearer runs to light the Olympic cauldron to start the games during the opening ceremonies.
Make an Olympic torch using a toilet paper and flames made of orange and yellow paper.

Ask the children to see if they can help the Olympic torch bearer to carry the torch to the Olympic cauldron.  
Encourage children to "stay on the path."

Olympic medals and crowns

Tell the children they are now going to make an Olympic medal to wear for the games.

Crown

You will need:

Cut out many leaf shapes and glue them along the length of the strip leaving a couple of inches at either end. Tape the two ends of the band together.
