This is a fun way to advocate for the kids to be able to be outside enjoying fresh air and sunshine or rain or indoors (if the heat index prohibits outdoor play) being rambunctious.
I'd love to get this going in our area and in my school so next year it would be great to get the heads up about it a month ahead.
Thanks for promoting this wonderful day to play (but aren't they all)?

Some ideas to incorporate children's understanding of Olympics 2012 and children's play.
For the 2008 Olympics, Children of HEMS School, Kathmandu Nepal created their own HEMS Olympics. We had the real Nepalese torch, real previous Olympians spoke and gave out the medals. The older children taught the younger children about specific games. If interested check out HEMS Olympics Part 1 and Part 2 on YouTube. It might give you some great ideas to adapt. Go Olympics!
