Brief
In this episode of the Pez family podcast, journey back to ancient Greece to discover the birth of the Olympic Games! Learn how athletes competed naked in honor of Zeus, what brutal sports like the pankration looked like, and how Pierre de Coubertin revived the games in 1896. Explore the fascinating differences between ancient and modern Olympics—from olive wreaths to gold medals, from 6 events to 42 disciplines—and try hands-on activities like building catapults, hosting your own Olympic games, and creating an Olympic torch to celebrate this timeless tradition of athletic excellence!
