Pool Party Games For Kids

By Leola Walls


Hosting kiddie parties are really enjoyable and can be a very fun bonding experience for both the adults and the children. Of course it is important for the host to come up with a lot of fun things to do so that all of the guests will have the time of their lives. In order to do this, one may use some of these really fun ideas for pool party games for kids.

Of course the swim race is the most basic game that has ever been invented for kiddie parties. The great thing about this activity is that it is something that does not need to be explained. The only thing about a swim race is that there must be a lot of adult supervision around the area because some children are prone to accidents and may drown.

A scavenger hunt under the water is yet another fun activity that has become popular is parties. The host will be throwing a small object somewhere in the water. The kids will wait for the object to sink and after a few seconds, they have to find the small object. The kids will dive under the water and of course the first one to grab hold of the small object will be the winner of the game.

Another game that is of really great fun is water basketball because it is actually tougher to play in the water than on land. This is quite the same as real basketball with the only exception that the rules are more lenient than the one on the court. The objective is of course to see which team scores the most points.

Playing tag in the water is also loads of fun. One person is considered the it and will stay inside the water. The others must swim around and not get touched by the it. Whoever gets touched will become the next it. Players have five seconds to stay out of the pool otherwise they will be out.

Water or hose limbo can also be played at parties. In traditional or normal limbo, a person has to walk under a stick without touching it. The same applies for hose limbo except that instead of a stick, players must walk under a stream of water. Basically, the host will shoot water from a host and players must walk under the water without being wet.

The all time favorite water balloon dodge ball is another famous game. Of course this game must be played out of the water. The participants are to be in two groups and must create a bunch of water balloons which they will use later on. Like in normal dodge ball, the goal is to hit the members of the other team and eliminate them. The team that has no more remaining members in it will lose the game.

So for those hosts out there who want a good time, try using these pool party games for kids. Now there should always be a safety precaution when playing these games. Sometimes children have the tendency to go out of control which can lead to a lot of disasters.
