Try some of these game ideas at home with materials you might have lying around the house. Keep yourself and your house safe!
Sock Ball Hockey -- 2 or more players
Roll up a clean sock until it's a solid ball
Designate a goal on each side of the playing area
All players must be on their knees at all times
Hit the ball toward the opponent's goal without holding it or throwing it
Play to 5 goals then switch sides and play again
Laundry Basket Horse -- 2 or more players
Find an empty laundry basket and set it up in a safe location
Use a soft ball or create a sock ball
First player calls a shot and tries to make it into the laundry basket
If the shot is made, the next player must try the identical shot
If a player does not match a made basket, they get a letter
Keep playing until someone spells the word H-O-R-S-E
Balloon Volleyball -- 2 or more players
Use a balloon or soft beachball if available
Create a two sided playing area that is NOT underneath any lights/fans
One player/team serves the balloon or ball over a midline toward the other team
Opponent must return the balloon without it going out of bounds or hitting the floor on their side
Points are scored when an opponent fails to return the balloon without it going out of bounds or hitting their side
Play to 7 points and then switch sides
Basement Bowling -- 1 or more players
You'll need a soft ball or sock ball plus several recyclable plastic bottles
It's best to use 6 or 10 bottles so that they can be set up in a triangle formation
In the basement or a lightly traveled hallway, set up your bottles and mark a rolling point from about 25 feet away
Each player gets two rolls to knock over the bottles before switching turns
Keep track of your pins (bottles) that have been knocked down and play 10 rounds total
Remember to roll the ball, not throw it
