25 Winter Olympics Games, Crafts, and Treats for Kids

With the Winter Olympics 2018 coming up, I really wanted to pull together some fun ideas to do with the kids. Take a look at these Winter Olympics games for kids, as well as crafts and treats to continue the fun.

Winter Olympics Games For Kids

Does your family enjoy watching the Olympic games together? We always have a blast watching the games with our kids, and they usually find a new athlete or two to cheer on. Last summer the kids were enthralled with Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky.

I think the winter games will also be exciting, but the kids aren’t as familiar with the winter sports as they are with the summer sports.

Why not play some Winter Olympics games for kids at home to help them learn more about the sports? Plus, it’ll be a great way for the family to connect with an event that only happens every four years.

Check out these ideas below to have your own fun. You can share these with your kids or host a Winter Olympics party. I’ve pulled together games, crafts, activities, and some fun treats.
