Are you ready to spend your summer outside? One of the best
parts about summer is the time spent hanging out in the sun with friends and
family. No jacket, no worries, just great company and perfect weather. (We’re big fans of the warmer months, if you
couldn’t tell.) We’ve already shared some ideas to spruce up your outdoor decor
– but what good is a nice space if you haven’t got anything fun to do in it? Check
out our list of 10 things you better have in your backyard to keep everyone
having fun this summer.
Giant Jenga – You
may have mastered the normal sized game, but when you’re playing with larger
blocks things get interesting! Get ready for lots of laughs and some seriously
tall towers!

Pro tip: When it isn’t
your turn, keep a good distance from the tower so you can move out of the way
if it falls – those are some pretty sizeable blocks that’ll be tumbling down!
Glowing Orbs– Set
the scene, create a lighted path, or try using them for a night time scavenger
hunt! Who knew $3 could go such a long way?

Hammock – Create the
ultimate spot to hangout, literally! Hammocks make the perfect reading nook,
napping spot, and acrobatics test (seriously, every time we go in a hammock we
almost fall out!).

Chalkboard – Outdoor
chalkboards are tons of fun for the young and old. Practice your drawing or use
the board for another game, like hangman or tic tack toe!

Tree House – This
not-so-complicated tree house is perfect for the average DIY-er. All you really
need is a tree and some boards and you’ll be able to take your fun to new
heights. You’ll never want to leave!

Yard Dominoes – Whether
you’re making a pretty design you can knock over or trying to add up to a
multiple of five, we’re sure these guys will bring you lots of fun!

Movie Night – What
could be better than showing a movie in your backyard? All you need is a
projector, a blanket, and some cozy sitting spots. Your little ones will be
over the moon!

Match Game – Test
your friends’ and family members’ memories with this super fun match game!
Decorate the tiles however you’d like (just make sure there are two of each)
and get ready for some laughs!

Word Game – They
might not be in school, but that’s no excuse for kids to stop learning.
Practicing spelling was never so much fun!
