In today’s post: Keep the kids busy and cool outside this summer with 25 fun water games.
Every summer I think my kids are going to spend all their time outside, exploring and learning and generally not being electronics-obsessed couch potatoes. But by 10 in the morning it’s so hot that none of us wants to be spend the day outside, at least not without a way to stay cool. So I’ve done some searching and found 25 awesome water games to play in the backyard. Now my kids can have outdoor fun without melting into puddles on the sidewalk. These games are a great alternative to indoor fun, and would also be perfect for summer birthday parties, family reunions, or VBS!
