If the Vancouver Olympics caught your tot's attention, consider throwing an Olympic party of your own. An international take on the traditional backyard games, partygoers can be divided into teams based on the colors of the Olympic rings and compete in classic potato sack races, a ladder run (jumping through the rungs of a wooden ladder laid flat on the ground), water balloon races, rope swings over an inflatable kiddie pool, etc. Conclude the races with an award ceremony where everyone receives a medal and then gather the teams together for a meal of international flavors.
