Fun in the Sun!
Make your own outdoor-ready game. Tic Tac
Toe is enjoyed by kids of all ages, and this is
the perfect patio game for summer BBQs.
Another favorite for the kiddos is the game of
cooties, and large 4x4 dice make it even more
exciting. You can cut your dice out of 4x4
poles. Be sure to sand down the rough edges
and then paint your spots.
No outdoor game party would be complete
without Jenga! You’ll need 54 2x4s cut to 10
or 11 inch pieces. Sand each piece so they
slide easily. To add extra color paint or dye
your wooden game pieces.
Finally, upgrade your bonfire hangout with
a game of glow in the da rk ring toss. Nail a
stake into a flat piece of wood or use wine
bottles for multiple targets.
Speaking of the outdoors after dark… please
allow me to introduce your new best friend.
Glow in the dark paint. Use it for anything
