Tag
A classic game we all played when we were young, but there’s a reason it has lasted the test of time, it is fun! With the obstacles involved in a backyard playground, it challenges your children to run fast, climb high, and race down the slides over and over again! Playing with the neighborhood kids and creating memories they will cherish for years!
Capture The Flag
In our opinion, the best game there is for children! Their imagination already runs wild on a backyard playground, so why not defend your fortress from the likes of the other team? Create two teams, hide your flags, or put them in plain sight, the goal of the game is to grab the other team’s flag and bring it back to your side, but be careful and do not get tagged! If you are tagged, you go into “prison” where your other teammates can come and tag you back out, for you to play again! The first team to capture the flag wins!
Egg & Spoon Race
This can be a fun game to play on a playground, with all the challenges of climbing and height levels, bumps, and slides, get as many teams as you’d like, every person has a spoon, and you must run through the course as quickly as possible without breaking your egg. Once you get back, you need to transfer your egg to the next person without breaking it, this process goes over and over until you run out of team members! A great game to play on a backyard playground!
Duck Duck Goose
Another classic game from everyone’s childhood! Have everyone sit down in a circle with as many players as you’d like! One person goes around repeating duck every time they touch another player’s head. Once they are ready, they say goose once they tap the chosen person’s head! The “chosen one” must stand up as quickly as possible and chase the other person before they sit down and take their spot!
