Broomstick
Hockey
You
will need children's brooms and a rubber ball for this game. Children hit the ball with the broom
and try to get it in a box or designated area.
Bowling
Take
several empty liter bottles from water or soft drinks and arrange them in a
triangle. Children stand behind a
line and roll a ball, trying to knock down the plastic bottles. Count how many they knock down. Let children can take turns rolling the
ball and setting up the bottles for each other.
Hint! Fill the bottles with water if it’s a
windy day.
Paddle
Ball
To
make paddles, place two paper plates together and staple ¾ of the way
around. Insert the hand and use
like a paddle. Roll up a scrap
piece of paper to make a ball.
Balloon
Tennis
Bend
two coat hangers into diamond shapes.
Stretch the legs of panty hose over the diamonds and knot at the
end. Bend up the hook of the
hangers and tape it to make handles.
Blow up a balloon and you’re set of a tennis match!
That's the end of my activities for crazy summer days. You've still got two months to go, so revisit my June blogs whenever you need an idea. Next month I'll focus on some back to school ideas so you'll be all set when the school bell rings again!
