Whale Olympics

The kids were on the beach watching the whales....

"You know, the whales are so active, and they look like they are having a lot of fun. It might be fun for us to pretend we are watching the 'Whale Olympics', and we are the judges, giving them scores on their performances...."

"Sounds like fun!  I'll go make some score cards..."  

"Everyone ready?  Look over there!"

"Synchronized swimming!"

"Side stroke!"

"Synchronized breaching....."

"Ooops...looks like they crashed into each other. But they did all get their heads up..."

"Backstroke.."

"That's my favourite whale over there. Looks like he's going to do a breach and dive combo..."

"What do you mean giving that a ten??  He didn't even get up out of the water!!
​ You can't play favourites like that!!"

"Wow!!  Look at this next guy!!"

"Now that's a LOT better!!"

"That one really deserved a ten!"

"Look how high he got his tail up out of the water!"

"That gets a ten from me!"

"But look over there..."

"His tail hit the water!  So low score from me...."

Anyways, it was a fun way to spend the afternoon....
