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. 😉
First letter, last letter
A simple talking, thinking game. You don’t have to play with winners or losers; it’s mostly good for occupying time while waiting or driving.
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!”
Tell a story
This is a fun talking game for a smaller group, good for encouraging creativity (and usually silliness).
One hundred
This is a great indoor group game, good for kids or adults. It can be chill and casual or fun and intense, whichever way you’d like to play.
