Gymnast Nadia Comaneci was born today!

Nadia, born in Romania in 1961, was the first gymnast to ever score a perfect 10 at the Olympics. She scored seven of them before the games were over in 1976! You might want to do a mini Olympics at your house. Create medals with ribbon and cardboard in advance so that you will be ready at the end of the ‘competition.’ The children can help you make them. The competition can be simple races (running, jumping, hopping, or rolling – compete by time or by endurance) or games or throwing or lifting.
