Make and Takes Daily Fix

This is our last Winter Olympic Game before the medal’s ceremony. We’re going to see who will win the Downhill Bobsled Race. The objective: to get your “bobsled” down the track first!

Supplies for the Downhill Bobsled Race:

empty wrapping paper tube
scissors and tape
2 toy cars
paper and marker

First, cut your empty wrapping paper tube in half lengthwise. This will make for 2 long bobsled tracks.

With a small piece of paper and a marker, name the country your racing for and tape it to the top of the toy cars. I’m the USA and my daughter chose China (she loves Ki lan!)

Get your “bobsleds” up to the top of the track, and let them race!

And the winner is… China, by 3 inches!
