Olympic Game and Food Activity
by Mary Kate Villamor


 



Here are the games I came up with. I also did a search for "Olympic food" and then decided to do a cake with white icing, with the Olympic rings in M&M's.  We will have pretzels and probably some Hershey kisses. I looked for gold medal chocolate but couldn't find any. I spray painted baby food jar lids gold and hot glued red, white, and blue ribbon to the back for their gold medals. I hope it turns out to be a fun evening!! Thanks again for all your ideas...it got my creative juices flowing!

P.S. - Oh and I found some ideas on this birthday party website. A lot of people had had an Olympic themed birthday party and wrote a description...I can't remember the website but it came up when I was doing a search for Olympic food and games.
