A hot summer day is the perfect time to cool off with water balloons! Fill them up with a hose or in your sink, and let the fun begin!


Here are some game suggestions:

  • Water balloon baseball
  • Hot potato
  • Sit on a water balloon
  • Water balloon splat- throw it in the air and see how big the splash is
  • Water balloon toss
  • Water balloon piƱata- fill up the balloon and hang it from somewhere

I found water balloons at the dollar store, but you could also use zip lock bags!


What are your kids' favorite water balloon games? Did you play with water balloons when you were a kid?

If you missed yesterday's activity, you can find it here. If you haven't signed up for the Beat the Heat Challenge yet, you can do so here.

This could be fun besides the clean up! We have dogs and I'd be afraid of then choking.

My kids love water balloons. We draw? Targets on the driveway and throw water balloons off the front porch to see who can get closest to thhe bullseye.

They also like to fill them up in the pool and throw them in the water to make a big splash

Yes I can recall palying with water balloons when I was a little girl, and my babies love playing in water so they love all the games you named above.  We just go finish playing in water but we were using spray bottle, it was fun!
