Fun Water Games for Kids
Water games entertain children of all ages. Whether you have only a hose, a bucket of water or a whole swimming pool, you can mix structured and unstructured play and water activities to amp up the fun factor.

No matter what water fun you plan, provide a variety of simple floating, fishing, bobbing and tossing tools to integrate into games.
Outdoor Water Games for Kids
Whether your children are 2 or 22, or somewhere in between, they will enjoy outdoor water games. Water has the power to make a traditional game, like Duck Duck Goose, silly and challenging, and a creative, active game, like Marco Polo, an activity that can last all afternoon. Water provides gentle resistance, splashy fun and cooling energy on hot days.
Fun Water Games for Groups of Kids
Keep everyone cool during the hot summer months with water games. Plenty of water games don’t require the use of a swimming pool, so even if you have limited space and no access to a pool, you can still come up with ways for kids to beat the heat. Most water games work best with a group of children. If you are supervising more than five children, make sure you have an extra set of hands to help chaperone.
