Play this festive game of spider web tossing to conjure up some creepy-crawly fun. With a hula hoop as the base and masking tape as the weave, you can recreate the eerily adorable spider web target. In your backyard, hang a set of two or three webs from a tree. Have the kids compete to see who can land their white eggs (i.e., cotton balls) on the web the most in order to win.
Your children will be overjoyed at the opportunity to design their very own personalised obstacle course and compete in interesting tasks. Pool noodles and dowels can be used to create domes for crawling under, agility can be tested with noodle circles, and the exercise is finished with a water run-and-slide.
Simple DIY soccer domes will keep the kids active in the backyard for hours. This fun-filled soccer paradise may be made using only rainbow-coloured pool noodles and dowels.
With the help of this entertaining outdoor drawing board, test your artistic abilities. This party standard may be made using copper pipes and our step-by-step instructions. You can then play Guess-What-I'm-Drawing and other textual guessing games for hours.
At your next outdoor gathering, bring out a tried-and-true ring toss set that includes 12 glass bottles, rings, and a wooden crate to keep everyone entertained. Use the set in a grassy location to create a relaxing retreat with a charming picnic blanket and all-weather floor cushions that coordinate.
