Summer Games with the Skylanders

As the Summer Games in Rio move into their final week add some Skylander fun into the mix as your family cheers on its favorite athletes.  Just as you can customize your characters in the upcoming Skylanders Imaginator video game, personalize these Skylanders printouts and their accessories in the colors of the teams you are rooting for to add some Skylander spirit to the Summer Games.






As the events in Rio wrap up it is time to start think about training for the 2020 games!  How can use a kid's passion for Skylanders video games to get them outside getting exercise and inspiring them to want to be healthy like an athlete #trainingfor2020?  We used our family's Skylander figures in a weight lifting challenge and as a baton for a backyard relay race.

What creative ways can you utilize Skylander toys-to-life figures to inspire your kids to pretend they are training to be an athlete for the 2020 Summer Games?  Share your pictures and videos with the Skylanders team on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtags #Skylanders and #Trainingfor2020 and they'll share some of their favorites with the world.
