Olympic Spirit

Since the Winter Olympics are going we decided to base a Family Home Evening around it. We had a short lesson where we talked about hard work and how it helps us learn to be happy and gives us a sense of accomplishment. We talked about how hard Olympians have to work and how when Adam and Eve left the Garden of Eden they were told they would have to work hard and how it is not a punishment that God gave Adam and Eve, but really a blessing. For our activity we had a series of "Olympic games" that all of the kids had fun doing, even Milo. Basketball shooting, a long jump, an obstacle course and even a dance contest. I love how excited they all look after getting their dollar store medals.
