Football Medals For Fun

I know my kids love receiving football medals for a whole host of reasons, they would go out of their way so they could win a medal or something to say they were a winner.

As I have boys, they all went through a phase of Football and we would have mini-tournaments at home just for them to get a bit of exercise and have some fun.

Now, I considered different ways to praise them and show them they are doing well. But there was so many ideas I had, I wasn’t sure what to do. Even if it is fantasy sports or something online based.

I did then sit down and wrote down a tournament for fun, things they had to learn to do to win a star. Then at the end of it all, they would win something.

If at school they did something really impressive, I wanted to award them another way too.

Then I got looking at things they could keep such as football medals and cups.

Football medals would be a great way to reward the good thing they do, then a cup for the end of the tournament for the both of them.

Now my youngest is getting older, we’re planning on doing more fun things and looking for ways to award them for new things they all learn, or simply just for being good.

You can actually get Football medals or even Football cups that you can give the kids, some even offer to engrave so you could also use these for birthday gifts for the big Football fans.

Other than this, I had ideas to buy them games or toys (for the younger one) as a way to offer prizes for doing well, either at home, school or even when doing extracurricular activities.

For example, my eldest is doing a care in the community thing at school where he goes to the soup kitchen to help out, helps the homeless and also offers to do things for the elderly. This is run through the school so he will be safe at all times, however, this is a good way to learn independence and to be kind and helpful to others. I know I did the same when I was at school and looked great in my school book.

I am so very proud of my boys and will continuously look at other ways to credit them for their amazing behaviour, things they have done and efforts they put into everything.
