Here are some easy to play ones that you can teach your kids. If you\u2019re lucky, they might even let you join in with the fun. Otherwise, you can sit back and listen to the happy giggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Marco Polo<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s an oldie but a goody. This game has probably been played since the 1700s. Just in case you need a refresher, here\u2019re the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One person is \u2018it\u2019 and has to try and tag another player. However, they have to do this with their eyes shut. They, instead, must rely on hearing where the other players have gone. To help, they can shout \u2018Marco.\u2019 On hearing this, all the other players must respond with \u2018Polo.\u2019 Once they tag someone, that player becomes \u2018it.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We use an extra rule to keep things moving. It\u2019s the 5-minute rule. If no one has been tagged after 5 minutes, whoever is closest to the hunter is now \u2018it.\u2019 If you\u2019ve got younger kids, you might want to get them a <a href=\"https:\/\/smartparentadvice.com\/best-baby-pool-float\/\">pool float <\/a>so they can be involved in the game too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mynametags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/359-1024x724.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1796\" width=\"271\" height=\"191\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Capture The Flag<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve got ample open space to play in and enough kids to form two teams, then capture the flag is a great game. It gets kids running around and encourages them to think strategically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you need is two items to act as your flags. You really can use anything at all as the flag, so get creative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To play, you divide the space into two territories. When a player is in \u2018enemy\u2019 territory, they can be tagged. If so, they must perform a penalty before returning to their base. The winning team is the first to get the enemy flag into their territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to spice things up, why not bring along some <a href=\"https:\/\/smartparentadvice.com\/best-walkie-talkies-for-kids\/\">walkie talkies<\/a>. This can let the kids roam over a larger area and encourage them to work as a team. With walkie talkies in play, the strategies can get even more intricate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mynametags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/1588-1024x437.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1797\" width=\"451\" height=\"192\"\/><figcaption><br><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\u2019s Missing?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For a bit of mental exercise, why not give this memory game a try. All you need is a tray, a cloth, and a random selection of small items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You arrange your selection of items on the tray and give the kids one minute to look. Then you cover the tray. Without the kids seeing you, take something away. The winner is the first kid to identify what\u2019s missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can make it as hard or as easy as you need to. The more objects, the harder it is. The bigger the items, the easier it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to make it extra challenging, you can rearrange the objects on the tray after you take one away. This means they need to actually remember everything on the tray, not just look for the gap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Charades<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Games that encourage kids to be silly are always great fun. Charades is a good one to play with kids because if you\u2019re good at it, you feel good about yourself. If you\u2019re bad at it, it can be even more fun. It also encourages turn-taking, which is skill kids always need to be practising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a quick rules refresher:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Pick a song, movie, or book title<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Mime which option you\u2019ve chosen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Indicate the number of words in the title<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. Start miming<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the title is guessed, someone else has a go at miming. It\u2019s good fun, with plenty of opportunities for silliness. It is worth having some suggested titles on hand for any kids who can\u2019t think of anything. Try and pick easy to mime titles like Up, Jaws, Cars, or Little Women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mynametags.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/4402786-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1795\" width=\"235\" height=\"156\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><strong>Board Games<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There are so many great board games out there for kids to play that we\u2019d be here all day if I started listing them. Board games are great for encouraging kids to get thinking. They develop logic and problem-solving skills. Also, they\u2019re fun! So, here are a few to consider for different situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dixit is an excellent game for any number of kids, it\u2019s pretty and creative. It gets kids thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ticket to Ride is a board game that makes kids fall in love with board games. It\u2019s easy to learn even for young kids. There\u2019s a nice mix of luck and strategy, plus you get to build a train empire across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Spaceteam is a fun, frantic five-minute game that gets kids working together and shouting at each other at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that\u2019s left is to wish you fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Author Bio: <\/strong>Cristin Howard runs <a href=\"https:\/\/smartparentadvice.com\/\">Smart Parent Advice<\/a>, a site that provides parenting advice for moms and dads.
