Hosting a Great Olympics Theme Party + More!

 

I’ve been snooping around on the web for ideas for food, decorating, and activities for our family during Olympic season. Here are a few fun things I’ve found:

- Schedule for Opening Weekend

- London 2012 Olympic athletes: the full list

 

Chiff.com:

For clever homemade invitations, decorate with pictures of London tourist attractions, Olympic athletes, the Olympic torch, or Olympic rings clip art.

What could be better (or easier) than a fish and chips party in honor of the London Summer Olympics?

For dessert, wave the colors with a delicious British flag cake or stick with an easy recipe for making these scrumptious Olympic Cookie Rings.

If you really want to score with young ones, buy a box of plain donuts. Make a simple sugar frosting, then go to town with food coloring to make different frostings in the official colors of the Olympic rings. Kids of all ages will love it!

MUSIC

Browse your favorite music store or Amazon for Summer Olympics Album, or search the Web for downloadable audio files including the Olympic Hymn, Chariots of Fire, and other rousing inspirational songs.


DECORATIONS

Use an old pair of oars, soccer gear, or tennis rackets as decorations to hang around your party room, or browse Allposters.com for Olympic sports posters,

Also consider these Olympics party decorating tips:

• Make a table centerpiece of international flags.

• Cut out and color 5 Olympic cardboard rings to hang from the ceiling, or decorate with balloons in the official Olympic colors.

• Keep little ones busy with stickers made from Summer Olympic clipart or Olympic coloring pages to hang around the party room to serve as decorations. The kids will love it.
