Backyard Fun For The Whole Family
Summer is here and it's time to enjoy the backyard. Here are some fun games you and your family can enjoy together:
How to
1. Cornhole: This classic game is perfect for all ages. Set up two boards with holes and take turns tossing the bean bags. The first team to reach 21 points wins.
2. Giant Jenga: Add a fun twist to this classic game by supersizing it. Stack the wooden blocks into a tower and take turns carefully removing them. The tower will eventually fall, but the person who removed the most blocks before it fell is the winner.
3. Giant Connect Four: Another game that is elevated by super sizing it. Connect four pieces of the same color in a row to win. This is a great game for younger kids.
4. Bucket Ball: A game of skill and luck. Set up several buckets in a pyramid and try to toss the ball into each bucket. If you make the ball in the top bucket, you get more points.
5. Frisbee Golf: Use trees, hula hoops, or other objects as targets for this game. Each target has a designated "par" score, and the person with the lowest total score after all targets are hit is the winner.
6. Water Balloon Toss: Perfect for a hot summer day. Fill up some water balloons and take turns tossing them back and forth. The team that can toss the balloon the farthest without breaking it wins.
7. Lawn Twister: Create a giant twister board using spray paint and a large white tarp. The game can accommodate many players at once.
8. Bocce Ball: A game of precision and strategy. Set up the small target ball (called a "pallino") and try to get your balls as close to it as possible. The team with the ball closest to the pallino at the end of each round scores a point.
