Outdoor Scavenger Hunt

Depending on the age of your child, you can have this scavenger hunt in your backyard or at a park. Take pictures or write riddles for the clues and let the kids explore! If you want, have prizes for the kids who find everything on the list.

Suggested clues: find a rock smaller than your pinky, find a stick with a leaf on it, find five blades of grass, find a leaf that was already on the ground, etc.

Candy Olympics

Any activity is more fun when candy is involved! Play games like relay races passing a licorice baton, long distance tossing candy into a bucket, or tossing rings over giant lollipops. Sure, it might be unhealthy, but it’s what kid’s dreams are made of!

Outdoor Movie

Take a movie night to the next level by having it outside on a warm summer night. Bring out your picnic blankets, pop some corn, and turn on your child’s favorite movie.

Marshmallow Shooters

I’ve mentioned marshmallow shooters before, but they’re worth repeating. Following these instructions, get your PVC pipes cut and assembled before the kids arrive. After decorating with stickers or sharpies, have a marshmallow war!

Gourmet Smores 

This will be better for older kids since a fire pit is involved, but bring out ingredients to make gourmet smores and let them see who can create the most delicious treat. Think beyond the classic graham crackers, marshmallows, and chocolate. Set out Reese cups, peanut butter, Oreos, Nutella, strawberries, caramel, and anything else you can think of.
