About this listen

Mia and Dr. Theo travel back to ancient Greece to discover how the Olympics began in Olympia in 776 BCE. Kids learn about the first events, olive-wreath champions, the Olympic truce, and how the modern Games returned in 1896. It’s a fast, fun history adventure about competition, fairness, and a tradition that has lasted for thousands of years.
