Summary: Tons of fun for kids and adults!
Comment: I have always loved any book from KLUTZ, always entertaining and tons of fun for both kids and adults! "Stop! the Watch: A Book of Everyday, Ordinary, Anybody Olympics" has lots of fun activities to do with a friend. The pictures are hilarious to look at and the instructions are easy to follow. The stop watch (batteries included) that comes with the book is easy to handle and easy to use.

Do you think you can set a world's record? Well, let's see! The book includes 73 events you can do, separated into four categories:
*Solo Events
*Meet the Clock Solo Events
*Two-Person Team Events
*All-Day Events

Entertainingly fun, here are a few examples of the kind of crazy activities you might try your hand at beating the world record of:
*Sing "Happy Birthday" to Rumpelstiltskin five times. Has to be loud, completely understandable and bear some resemblance to music.*
World Record 5.81 seconds

*Count by 6s until 12 seconds have elapsed. Exactly.*

*Sing the first verse of "Jingle Bells", alternating each word between partners.*
World Record 5.38 seconds

Summary: Fun, creative, active and even educational!
Comment: This book is really great. It comes with a sturdy stopwatch that you use to time yourself.

The various suggestions for "everyday Olympics" are ordinary to unusual. This is to be done with a friend.

The first one is - get this - timing how fast you can start and stop the stopwatch! Write the word with "banana" with dental floss as quickly as you can (and legibly), putting your jackets on backwards and zipping them up. flip a coin until you get 8 heads or tails in a row, etc.

Some of these are really fun and a lot of them are active.

My kids really like this book.
