Capture the flag
Capture the flag is a classic; a great outdoor game, especially fun at night; perfect for big groups, family reunions, or church youth activities.
Dibble dabble
Dibble dabble is a great game to play in the pool: fun, simple enough for younger kids, challenging enough for older kids, and, unlike some of my other favorite pool games, not overly rough/dangerous. 😉
Dodgeball
A classic playground or gym game, but pretty easily played in other settings and with a big group or a small group.
Don’t Eat Pete
Don’t Eat Pete is a great party game for younger kids. Why wouldn’t it be? It involves colored happy faces, candy, and surprises. “DON’T EAT PETE!”
Ultimate frisbee
A way fun game (or really, sport) that’s kind of like football, but with a frisbee. It’s easy to play and can be played with a big group of all different ages.
