Make Rules For Outdoor Games

I would much prefer outdoor games compared to indoor games because you have a lot more room to move around. There are of course some indoor games that are fun too, but being outside when there's nice weather is great. Even when it's raining out you can go out with a bathing suit on and have a good time.

You can play board games and small activities inside but there's so much more to do outdoors. You can play catch, play sports and run around playing whatever games come to mind. Gather up a few people and start a game of you choice. Then every time you start a new game make a rule to throw it off a little bit and make it more difficult.

Outdoor Game Rule Ideas

Play catch with the baseball with a friend or family member.

1. You have to throw lefty
2. You cant move you feet when you throw
3. If you have a big enough area, close your eyes when you throw the ball

Playing A Soccer Game

1. Replace the soccer ball with a kick ball or over sized yoga ball
2. Play where you're allowed to use your hands
3. No dribbling, only passing and shooting

There are so many extra rules you can have to make a game more interesting. Kids are very good at doing that while they're playing a game indoors or outdoors. They love to make it more exciting and so should you.

Any game can be altered. The winner of each game should be able to make the next rule and the previous rules stay in place even though there's a new rule coming so that there's 2 rules, then 3 rules and so on.

This is probably a better idea when you have outdoor games for kids because it can get a little out of hand with certain rules. I'm sure the kids will love it though because they will be laughing all day long.
