Kids Go For Gold At Nursery Rhyme Olympics

While much of the globe has their eyes on London, hosted an Olympics of their own last week.

And this Olympics was influenced more by Jack and Jill and Humpty Dumpty than Nadia Comaneci or Carl Lewis.

The events at the library's Olympics were derived from nursery for rhymes.

For example, kids from 4 to 7 competed in a Jack-and-Jill themed relay where they had to race between a "well" of water with a small bucket to see which team could fill it faster.

They also had to gallop on cardboard horseback across the Read House lawn to a jumbled puzzle of Humpty Dumpty and put him back together.

All totalled, the kids competed in six events and everyone was awarded a medal.
