I was asked by Camp Med, a licensed day care schedule and summer camp sponsored by the City of South Pasadena, to give a presentation to our campers about the upcoming Summer Olympics, as I would be leaving for Beijing shortly to work on the Games. I thought if I just talk and the kids just listen, it could get kind of boring. So instead, I proposed an Olympic family Feud.
The campers were divided into 4 groups. The winning group would each receive a prize. The way it worked is that I would ask a inquire and give one definite group a opportunity to respond. Unlike television family Feud where only one someone can participate, here whatever from the group could chip in. The team leader would then try to write down the best answer. If the sass was wrong, the inquire would move to the next group. If one group was noticeably weaker, they would get the easier questions.
All Halloween Costumes
What struck me is how engaged the kids got. You could see the wheels turning. They started thinking. They wanted to give the right answer. They wanted to win. They were having fun and so were the other counselors.
The questions asked required dissimilar skills, memory, reasoning and also listening (to what I had talked about throughout the summer). Due to the internet, it was very easy to come up with questions as multiple trivia, kids and data sites exist.
When I returned from the Olympics, the kids were very concerned about my experience. It was as if the Olympic family Feud had opened the door for them to be aware and concerned in the Olympics. The event was such a success that we are following it up with a Halloween family Feud. For Halloween family Feud, more jokes and questions with an element of levity will be included. And there will be more questions that our younger kids can answer.
Attached are the questions (with answers) to both family Feuds:
