It sure is hot right now, which means that you need to do everything you can to stay cool. To help you beat the heat this summer, we have come up with 5 fun summer games to play with water. Read below to learn more and make the most of the summer weather.

5 Fun Summer Games to Play with Water

Water Limbo

How low can you go? Find out with water limbo. All you need for this game is water and a hose. You aim the stream so it works like a limbo bar, and you keep lowering it as each round go by. This is fun no matter what, but it can be a great competition for larger groups of kids as well.

Bath Time Outside

Yes, you can keep the swimsuits on, but kids love it when you add a twist to the typical routine. For this, fill up a kiddie pool and add your usual bath toys, bubble, and more. This is quick and simple, but is always a delight for the little ones.

Water Balloon Fight

Who doesn’t love a good water balloon fight? This is an easy game to join in on with the kids, and can be a great evening for the whole family. To make things easier, purchase a water balloon filling station, allowing you to fill many balloons at once.

Water Gun Battle

Much like the water balloon fight, this is one that works for everyone. Play it like paintball or laser tag and have fun while staying cool. Whether in teams or last man standing, this is always a hit.

Water Transfer

This one is a great way to keep the kids busy, even when there is no one else to play with. Grab two buckets, the hose, and a sponge. Fill the bucket with water and have your child or children transfer the water from one bucket to the other using only the sponge. Not only does it keep the kids busy, but you can also work in scientific concepts of volume, absorption, and more.
