Having a ball to play around in the garden is a great physical activity as well. There are fun ball games to play with kids that can make a simple activity absolutely enthralling, too.
All you need for this are simple ping pong balls, a bunch of books or boxes, and a couple of straws. Arrange the books and boxes in such a way that they create a maze-like arrangement of sorts in your hall.
Let each kid have their own ping pong ball. Use a temporary marker to make a design on each. Every kid then uses a straw to blow on the ball and pass it successfully through the maze.
The one who does it in the shortest time wins. If you have a long hallway or passage in your home, this is a great game to play. Use some old boxes and cut out small holes on one side. Place these boxes upside down so that these holes form tunnels. All kids troop together on one end of the hallway with the boxes on the other end.
Start rolling tennis balls towards the boxes such that they pass through the tunnels. The kid to roll the most balls through the tunnels wins. A table, a bunch of straws, a ping pong ball and a couple of cups. This can be played either by using the power of breath or by using hands. Tape both the cups on either side of the table to form the goal posts. The straws are the hockey sticks. Let each kid do his best to put the ball in the goal by using straws to push it around, or blowing through them to push it in one direction.
This one is bound to create some litter but is so much fun to play, you might end up joining the kids as well. Wrap a good amount of duct tape around a cardboard piece. Your email address will not be published. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam. Learn how your comment data is processed.

I am so grateful to have activities handed to us Fun and easy ones that can be put together in a moment's notice! You're awesome Jamie and I appreciate you sharing your activities and ideas!! It is so easy to just put up the calendar, and glance at it for inspiration when we are in a funk.
This is exactly what I have been searching for! Thanks for making something so organized and easy to use. This takes down the need to scour the internet for ideas. It's like looking for a recipe on the internet, so many options that often times it is less overwhelming to look in a book on the shelf than stress about too many options.
Big, small, textured you name it, balls are a sure hit with kids. One gift that we tend to get as a family each spring is a new ball. Have you seem some of the new designs they have come up with? I think ball games are such an easy way to create outdoor games for kids to get them moving and playing together with friends and siblings. One of my favorite ways to store all of our toys, especially balls is in a Large Plastic Tub with Rope Handles.
Plus you can use these for practicing making a basket with your balls! You can lay it on the ground and challenge your child to make the ball land in the hole, almost like golf or you can hang it from a tree and try to make the ball fly through the hula hoop. The skill of learning to bounce a ball at just the right speed and height takes talent. These skills are needed for additional bouncing ball games like tennis, ping pong and even volleyball. Start early with this Over the Line game.
Set up an arch made of blocks and try to roll a small ball through the arch without knocking any blocks over. Best played outside with a light ball like a beach ball- pop the ball up in the air and try not to let it hit the ground. This game is great exercise! Foursquare is tons of fun — here are the rules. Using tennis or racquetball racquets and a beach ball, hit the ball back and forth, trying not to let the ball touch the ground. Lay a hula hoop on the ground, and give each player several balls.
Take turns rolling the balls towards the hoop, trying to get inside, but not roll too far. Set up a laundry basket at some distance from the players.
