Perfect Water Games For Kids

Kids water games are an excellent way to be active and having fun. Playing within the water helps the child in his development and to gain confidence within the water. It also introduces new challenges and sensations. We divided the very best water games in two groups.

Most outdoor Water Games For Kids are very inexpensive (easy in your party budget), and don’t need a lot of time to set up. Two more excellent reasons to include a minumum of one or two of them to your games and activities list.

Water Balloon Toss 

Grab someone and stand across from their store. Toss a water balloon back and forth, stepping further back with every toss. For a variation, consider catching this balloon mechanism in a bowl, bucket, or towel.

Dunk Tank, Water Balloon Style 

There isn't any point to this one, except for being wet. Place the water balloon on your head and squeeze until it pops. Substitute water balloons for water balls or giant sponges. Who looks the wettest.

Wet Sponge Hot Potato 

Everyone sits inside a circle. Play music or sing an audio lesson. Pass the wet sponge round the circle. When the music has ended (just play a brief segment) or the song has ended, the person left with the wet sponge can squeeze it over their scalp. They can also choose to squeeze it over another child’s head. Refill the wet sponge and play again.

Sponge Basketball 

Divide the children into pairs and provide each pair a wet sponge. One child holds their arms in a hoop before them. The other will aim for the hoop with the sponge. Substitute hula hoops if they're available.

TUG OF WAR 

Have a strong rope or water hose and divide the children in 2 groups on each end from the rope. Place the rope in the centre over a running sprinkler and also have the kids pull the rope. It is really an exciting game when the children pull others into the water and then get pulled themselves in to the water. Very funny for hot summer days.

BUCKET RUN 

Divide the children into groups and provide each group a full bucket of water, a clear bucket and every child a paper cup. Then you definitely set up a race so that every child has to scoop water in the cup and run in the full bucket to the empty bucket together with his water. The team who poured the most water in to the empty bucket is the winner.
