We have enjoyed watching the Olympics for the last two weeks. Because of our location, we've had 24-hour access to the youtube Olympic channel, watching live events as well as any that have already taken place.
Especially with the kids, it was nice to be able to switch between events and watch many different things. The kids each had their favorite sport to watch or athletes they liked to see perform.
After watching the closing ceremony, we talked about what we enjoyed most. Here are the kids' responses:
M- I liked red. I liked diving. I want to go swimming.
J- I liked horse riding, biking, field hockey, and swimming. I liked that the horses didn't knock off the bar very much. I like the bumps where they were riding their bikes. I like that they played hockey in a field. I liked all the fast swimming and when they started like this (he demonstrated the breast stroke).
E- (she had to write hers) I like to watch gymnastics. I liked the high bar. I liked to watch swimming and Michael Phelps (which she wrote with a "MF"). I like to watch diving. I like to watch diving when two people do the same thing at one time.
That's our family review of the Olympics.
Even though you share with me what the kids do and say, I LOVE reading your blogs and hearing it again straight from the kids! This Nana thanks you so much for this update; glad the kids got to enjoy the olympics! I'm also glad that M did get to go swimming!
