The torch has been lit, the Olympics are here! After much anticipation, the Olympics officially begin today. (Opening Ceremonies are at 1:30 P.M. ET! Download the CBC app to watch for free!) With so many different events, there is a lot in store for this year that you can watch from the comfort of your home. To spice things up, here are some fun Olympic themed snack ideas that you can prepare for your enjoyment.
Fruit Torches
Light up your day with these Olympic torch snacks! The “torches” are simply made up of a waffle ice-cream cone filled with yogurt and fruits: papaya, pineapple, cantaloupe, mango, and strawberries.
ALTERNATE IDEA: Fill an ice cream cone with Cheetos!!
Gold Medal Cookies
Whether or not you are Olympic champions, you can reward you appetite with these medal cookies! These are cookies decorated with candies that are arranged to look like the Olympic rings and connected to a ribbon. To make things more interesting, you can replace the ribbon with fruit roll up.
Olympic Rings Board
Make a snack tray of different foods to make it resemble the Olympic rings! Have 5 different bowls and fill them in with the corresponding colours of the rings. And add in little Canadian flags, of course!
Olympic Rings Cupcakes
This one is super fun & is easy to get the kids involved! Make cupcakes in the flavour of your choice, ice with vanilla icing, and use your choice of round candy to decorate with the Olympic rings.
The Olympic Games offers an exciting and at times intense viewing experience, bringing out our patriotism and inspiring us with stories of trial and triumph. It also gives us an opportunity to see the wonder of God, through it all! Here are 5 ways to see God's wonder through the Olympics.
