While you may think it’s too warm to head outside to play, these games will inspire you to slather on the sunscreen and find a shady spot! Some of my favorite activities (besides hitting these Florida beaches) include some serious pool time or an outdoor game like shuffleboard or ladder ball. I’m trying to find different (and unique!) ways to entertain my toddler and also to include at my next outdoor party. We are just now starting to plan my son’s August birthday party, and I’m looking to do a fun theme that includes outdoor games and messy toys (think silly string, water balloons, and water guns!). These ideas could fit in with my next family party or just a fun afternoon on a lazy weekend.
What do you plan on doing with your children this summer? Summertime is meant to be filled with fun and games, but it can be difficult to make the fun last for long. Kids get bored doing the same thing each day. Keep your kids happy this summer with something new. You’ll be amazed at how much fun your kids (and you!) have with these games and activities.
