We pinned this great catapult post by Julie at Creekside Learning a few months ago and decided to fiddle around with some of her suggestions and a few others we discovered online until we came up with our own working catapult. We figured that a catapult was the perfect way to help Boomer actually make it over the high jump. Inspired by Boomer’s catastrophic participation in the high jump (among other events), my son and I decided to try out a project that we’ve been wanting to make for awhile… a catapult. The illustrations and humorous details in the story make it one that kids of a variety of ages will enjoy. Boomer definitely isn’t the fastest or strongest at the games, but he sure does try the hardest! The story has a great message about trying hard even when things are tough and you aren’t winning. Olympig! is a darling story about a pig named Boomer who is participating in the Animal Olympics. ![]()
