Fun Kids Games - Any Day's A Great Day For Fun Kids Games!
By Amar Mahallati

Any day's a great day for fun kids games! Rain, shine, or any
season is a perfect time to play games. Has it been awhile
since you thought about fun kids games? Here's a short list to
jog your memory . . .

Do you remember "Duck, Duck, Goose"? It's terrific fun, and
can be played outdoors or in. And believe it or not, it's fun
for any age! Here's how it's played:

Have the children all sit down in a circle (make a smaller
circle for the little tykes).

One person is "It," and he or she walks around the outside of
the circle, touching the other children's heads saying "duck,
duck, duck."

When he comes to the person whom he wants to chase him, he
calls "goose."

The goose chases the "it" person around the circle, and the one
who reaches the empty space first sits down.

The other one is now "It"!

Add a few twists to the "Duck, Duck, Goose" game and you have
another of the most fun children games called Indy 500:

Have the kids sit in the circle (on the floor, or in chairs)
and give each a number and name of a car (example: 1's are
Ferraris, 2's are Fords).

The game leader calls out a car name, and those cars have to
get up and run around the circle.

The first person back to their spot wins . . . BUT, the cars
can have "mechanical difficulties", as their leader chooses.

The leader might choose to holler "run out of gas!" or "flat
tire!" or "no muffler!" or "turbo boost!"

The person has to act/sound out those commands in their attempt
to get back to their seat!

Of course, Hide and Seek is always a favorite, and for a
sitting game, Old Maid is fun for parents, too! Think back
about the games you played, or thumb through some magazines.
You'll get excited to share ideas with your kiddos!

Laughter is wonderful medicine, and fun kids' games are sure to
invoke plenty of good times, whether there are two or twenty
participants!
