Materials:

• Water Balloons: However many you want to string! We recommend 3-5 because more will be tough to hang.

• String/rope: to hold the balloons. Tie each balloon to their own small string and attach that to the main line. This way you can easily add more balloons to play more than once.

• A Stick: Bat, broomstick, hockey stick, small fallen branch.

• Safe space: Make sure you can swing your stick safely and that everyone is out of the way before you start your turn.

Materials:

• Water Balloon: several to play multiple times

• Colander: This is what you will try to catch the water balloon in. If you do not have a colander you could also use a strainer or plastic bowl.

Objective:

• One player is the tosser one is the catcher. You get 1 point for every balloon you can catch in your colander above your head! It does not matter if the balloon breaks or stays in the colander.

Materials:

• Cup: 1 or more plastic cups to move the water

• Bucket: 2 buckets, one full of water and one to move the water too

Objective:

• Sit in a line with one bucket full of water at the front and one empty in the back of the line. Have as many family members as you want sit in a line. The first person scoops a cup full of water and passes it over their head to the next person sitting behind them. The last person in line dumps the water in the empty bucket. Pass the cup back up and move quickly to fill the bucket!
