1 Tai chi

This is a traditional Chinese sport, and one of the Chinese martial arts. Strengthening bones, accelerating blood circulation, boosting the immune system and increasing lung capacity are a few of its benefits. The sport is suitable for hectic city dwellers who would like to live a healthier life. If tai chi were added to the Olympics, it could help promote good living to the rest of the world.

2 Sepak takraw

If I could add something to the Olympics, I would choose a Malaysian sport called sepak takraw. It is similar to volleyball, except it is faster-paced and requires more skills. The differences are that the ball is only slightly bigger than a baseball, and you can only use your feet, knees, chest and head. There are awesome spin-kicks and flips in the game. Pradyumn Dayal

After a long, difficult day at school, there's no better activity than napping. Let's see who can nap the longest at their desks. Other categories could include creative napping, for example, using a dictionary as a pillow, and speed napping, testing who can fall asleep in the shortest time. Candace Kwan
