22. Ice Block Treasure Hunt
Get excited about summer, because this is one of my favorite outdoor activities for the kids! They have so much fun excavating the toys out of the ice. Just give them a few tools (hammer, screwdriver, etc.), and watch them dig for joy. They will want to do this over and over again! Get the full details here.
23. DIY Cornhole Board
This classic is one of my favorites because it’s fun for all ages! I like the idea of customizing it, too. You could paint it in patriotic colors for a 4th of July party, or just use it all year round for backyard fun. Make your own cornhole board with these instructions. Don’t forget the regulation size & weight cornhole bean bags!
24. DIY Water Blob
This is better than a slip n’ slide! Although it’s “water play”, it’s completely dry (unless you add water to the top). I can image it gets pretty warm towards the end of the day, so it could even be fun on a cooler spring day. I would even try filling it with a bit of glitter and/or food coloring! Get the full instructions and see more pictures over at Homemade Toast.
