Want to get the kids excited about the upcoming 2010 Winter Olympics?  Need some information to sprinkle a little learning in with the fun?

Here are some great websites to help you out:

• The Official 2010 Winter Olympics Site – If you only visit one site, this is it.  The official Olympic site offers TONS of information – schedules and results, medals from this and previous Olympics, athlete info, latest Olympic news, photos, video, and more.  There is even a ski jump mini-game, and wallpaper images for your computer.  I also love how everything in inter-linked, so you can always find what you’re looking for.
• NBC Olympic Site - Offers your Olympic TV schedule, video, news, and more.  Check out the handy Olympic Winter Sport page with all the info in one place.  For the techies, they also offer mobile phone Olympics, alerts, widgets, and RSS feeds.
• Official U.S. Olympic Committee Site – A great resource for Olympic history, and also detailed information on the U.S. team and the process involved in ‘making the team.’
• Vancouver’s Website – Curious about where the Olympics are being held, this is the website for Vancouver, BC in Canada, along with their information about the Olympics.

Enjoy!
