Giant Jenga
Giant Jenga is a classic game where each player must stack three blocks, with their wide sides facing up. It's best played with two or three players, but can be played with as many as six. It's best to win by being the first person to build the tallest tower. If that proves to be impossible, the winner of the game may be decided by a draw of straws or by flipping a coin.
This classic game is made even more fun when you can play it outdoors. It requires 56 rectangular blocks of equal size. Each player takes turns adding blocks to the tower. The goal is to prevent the tower from falling over. To get started, you can make wooden Jenga blocks or purchase a set that comes with instructions and rules.
Hula Blockers
Hula Blockers are a simple and fun outdoor game that the whole family can enjoy. It requires a hula hoop, bean bags, and some string. This game requires good coordination and physical fitness, and it can be played with up to four players.
Hula Blockers are a great way to spend a day in the backyard or on the patio with your friends. If you have hula hoops, you can even set up challenges. For example, one team can have their players jump rope while the other team tries to spin the hula hoop. Another team can send a player to meet the winning player. This process continues until one team has successfully completed the entire course.
Hula Blockers are easy to set up. Each person has a hula hoop and a bike helmet. Each person stands in a base of the hoop and the other players try to toss the hula hoop over the human target. The distance of the starting point can increase with each round.
Ghost in the Graveyard
Ghost in the Graveyard is a game of tag in which players must try to avoid being tagged by the ghost. The ghost tries to catch whoever tries to tag them, but they must stay within their own "graveyard." If a ghost catches a player, he/she becomes the new ghost for the next game.
Ghost in the Graveyard is typically played outdoors with three or more players. One person plays the "ghost" and the others search for him/her. When the ghost is found, he yells out, "Ghost in the graveyard!" and the other players race to the location where the ghost hid. The ghost then tries to tag the players and whoever he/she tags before he/she becomes the next ghost.
Ghost in the Graveyard can be played anywhere, but it's best to play it outdoors in the dark. You can play it in your own backyard, in the park, or on a playground, but be sure to play it outside where there's plenty of room for hiding.
Others to consider
There is so much you can do outdoors with your buddies. Think about it.
You don't need anything other than a football for a game of touch or flag football.
Depending on what type of equipment you have laying around the garage, shed, basement attic, you may try cornhole toss, Frisbeer, stick ball, bocce, lawn darts, croquet, badminton, lawn bowling, and more!
