Backyard Games

Simple Summer Fun

Audience: All ages

Follow Catherine Holecko’s directions to host an Olympic-style event in your own backyard! Her ideas are simple and fun. Start with a torch run through nearby streets to set the right mood. Have all the invited athletes carry a flashlight, or create a pretend torch using paper-towel tubes and orange tissue paper. As an alternative, hide torches throughout your yard or the park and start off the games with a scavenger hunt. Once all the torches are located, celebrate with a parade.
