Super Bowl Sunday is fast approaching.
Here are some fun ways to include your kids
in the Super Bowl 50 fun!
- Prep game snacks and food together. Search the internet to turn your favorite ingredients into a delightful treat.
- Point out shapes on the field: The field is a rectangle, the ball is oval, the uprights are almost a square, the coins used for the toss are circles. See how many different shapes you can find.
- *Football scoring is odd. Make it a math game.
- Bingo. Laura at makelifelovely.com made free printable cards. You can find them here: bingo cards
- Talk with your kids about the colors, teams, players, rules, and sportsmanship.
- Learn about the teams’ home cities (Denver and Charlotte) online before the game or at half-time. Have you been there? Would you want to visit? Why?
- Have a dance party during half-time. Coldplay and Beyonce will be playing.
- Get moving. Decide ahead of time what signals on the field will mean for your group. Give different categories of commercials a body movement, too. Here’s what I will be doing:
- false start: 5 jumping jacks
- field goal: 3 push ups
- touchdown: run in place for 30 seconds
- candy commercial: jump 10 times
- car commercial: pretend to drive
I hope the whole family enjoys the game,
Elizabeth
*Most common scores:
- touchdown = 6
- kicked point after touchdown = 1
- 2-point conversion after touchdown = 2
- field goal = 3
