Super Bowl XLVII Fun for Kids!

Is your family excited about Super Bowl XLVII?

Have compiled a Pinterest board called Super Bowl Fun for Kids!


This board contains a variety of recipes, arts and crafts, party favor ideas, as well as links to free educational activities related to the this theme.

Here in our home, the boys have a handy-dandy notebook.
The notebook contains mini lessons on football.

Covered topics and activities include:
  • Have fun using Roman Numerals
  • Prepare Football themed snacks
  • Review and discuss Football rules & regulations
  • Do work related to Measurement of a football field
  • Have fun with Hands - on Probability & Statistics
  • Complete some cool Geography Lessons for both Super Bowl XLVII teams
  • Read all about it: NFL history with links to various pages on NFL.com
  • Design a neat scene using Football Themed Stickers
  • Create Football-themed arts & crafts
  • Research How a Football is Made
  • Create a football team name, logo, and mascot
  • Learn how to do a Mock Interview with a football coach or player 
  • Prepare a commercial that you feel would be great to air during the Super Bowl. 
 Here are some photos of the boys and our notebook:

Hands on learning about Roman Numerals. Thanks TpT!

Another football themed freebie from TpT!

The boys will also get to do the following post NFL.com Super Bowl XLVII activity:
Following a parental preview of the commercials, they boys will then get to watch the commercials and will get to do a write up about which one was their favorite one and why they liked it.

How did I put the notebook together?

Well, thankfully, so many activities were available as freebies on Teachers Pay Teachers , Homeschool Bits and Currclick.

Then, by visiting the NFL.com website, I was able to pull up some other interesting info. for the boys.
