Planning A Get Together With Pool Party Games For Kids And Their Friends

By Tiffany Gill


There are not many things that beat summer heat like owning your own swimming pool full of bright blue water under a shade tree in your back yard. Often children will go to great lengths to make friends and invite them to come over and swim in it. Generally the more challenging things to do is finding good pool party games for kids and their playmates to play that will maintain their interest and involvement while still having fun.

When organizing one of these events, you are not required to invest a lot of capital or in several cases massive amounts of your time. What is vital is that it seems well thought out with various activities that involve every child so no one feels left out. Following this program will help ensure more play dates for your kids and a place for you as a successful parent with happy children.

One of the critical things for any good party is choosing a theme. This is the idea or thought you incorporate into it. It might be as easy as a tropic theme with different flowers or very complex like a superhero theme that everyone dresses up like superheroes. Let your kids brainstorm and come up with some ideas that please them. The general idea is to let youngsters use their imaginations in a positive way.

Decorations are always a must for the successful get together. They are what sets the mood and for children they will often help to build the excitement for the day to come. They should be simple, easy to clean up and hopefully inexpensive. A few streamers, some inflatable yard effects and a lei for guest when they arrive.

Games are typically the best part of the party experience. Parents and their children can easily construct some homemade paper chains which help cut off various areas. You could have areas for different games, around your pool, the eating area or a kids only or parents only area. Always be sure to set firm ground rules that should be followed so everybody has fun.

There are lots of good games to try out. Find the coin is where you drop a coin or other small object into the water and see who can bring it up the fastest. Balloon toss is where children toss a filled water balloon to each other using only a towel held between two people.

Another great game is hose limbo. This is where two people hold a hose while someone passes under it. Whoever goes the lowest wins. A good group game is marco polo. A chosen player swims around saying marco with their eyes closed. The other children say polo. When one is touched they become the new it person.

Always wait 30 min after eating food before getting back in the pool. Try planning a pinata sometime near the end of the event. Every kid there would love that. Remember to always have supervision at all times. Pool party games for kids typically are meant to be fun, good supervision ensures they remain that way.
