The excitement and competitive spirit of the Olympic Games inspires the KidZania Games 2016, ongoing until the Aug. 20 championship at KidZania Manila, Bonifacio Global City.

All events aim to train kids in the ways of champions and developing in them the right form, discipline and heart for victory.

Athletes in the making who complete all four rounds will proceed to the Main Square to earn a stamp on their PaZZport, to experience exciting features of this kid-sized metropolis. They also get the chance to capture their moment of victory in a photo holding up a finisher’s placard.

Aspiring athletes can also draw inspiration from making their personalized badge in the Arts & Crafts establishment. They can paint country flags or sports-themed artwork on their faces, or color sketches of their favorite RightZKeepers in athletic gear at Art & Design Academy.

Meanwhile, dads and moms who are hoping to cover an event of this size someday can practice their broadcasting skills at the ABS-CBN TV Studio or radio station.

KidZania Manila is open 9 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday-Friday; 9 a.m.-2 p.m. and 3-8 p.m, Saturday-Sunday. Visit manila.kidzania.com.
