If you know me, you know I love a good game and have a pretty fierce competitive streak. I also love having friends over and spending time in our backyard swimming, eating, and just having fun. So it’s no wonder I am a fan of backyard games! What’s better than feeding your competitive streak outside on a beautiful day with friends??? Today I am sharing five simple DIY backyard games you can easily make this weekend!
Dominoes are a classic in the game department. ChiWei at One Dog Woof shares how to make a lawn set out of 1x4s. The steps are easy as pie – cut, stain, dot, and seal!
What party is complete without getting tangled up in a game of Twister? Tausha at Sassy Style shares how simple it is to transform your lawn into a giant game board with spray paint!
I’ve never played LCR, but after checking out this DIY version from Roeshel at The DIY Showoff I can’t wait to try it out! All you need to make your own is scrap 4x4s and canning lids.
I am always a fan of a good repurpose, and Simply Kierste shares how she turned an old tire she scored for free at a junkyard into a DIY tetherball game.
I know my family would have a blast with this DIY Kerplunk game! It just looks fun! You can make your own by building a simple wood base and then making a tube with wire netting.
So what game does my family need in our backyard this spring and summer? I’d love to hear your favorites!
