Dizzy lizzy - outdoor party game
This is a great game for an outdoor party with the family.
Get 2 broomsticks or similar sticks.
It’s a relay race. Divide players into two teams and place two sticks at the other end of the room or garden.
On the signal each player takes a turn to do the following:
- run to the stick
- hold the broom stick upright and place your forehead on the top (so you’re looking at the floor)
- run your legs around the stick in a circle, whilst keeping your forehead on the stick
- every one on your team counts your circles up to 10
- then run back to your team and tag the next player
First team to finish wins.
The point is you get very dizzy and it’s difficult to actually complete without falling over.
Have fun!

Ballon Popping relay
Fun party game ideas
Divide guests into two equal groups. About 25 yards away place two large bags (bin liners) of inflated balloons in colours to match your theme colours. The balloons should be over-inflated to make popping easier.
At the sound of a ringing bell or whistle, the first two relay contestants, one from each team, run to the bag, and remove one balloon. Each contestant must sit on it until it pops. Once the balloon pops, the players run back to the starting line, and tag the next player in line.
The first team to complete the course wins. Not a quiet game, but a guaranteed favourite!

Burpee
The outdoor mini baseball party game
| Objective: |
A baseball game that can be played with as few as two people. |
Categories:
|
Outdoors |
Game type:
|
Active. A lot of movement may be required. |
Players:
|
2 or more players. |
| Needed: |
Whiffle ball Bat Gloves (optional) A wall |
| Setup: |
Burpee is a baseball game which requires a wall and does not require a catcher. You can play at your local playground or whereever there is a large open space with a wall. You’ll need to determine locations for 4 bases (including home plate) and decide the out-of-bounds lines for foul balls. The home plate should be a few feet in front of the wall. Each team should have an equal number of players. You’ll also have to determine a strike zone. This is done by drawing a retangle or square on the wall with some chalk to determine whether a pitch is a strike or a ball. Each team needs a pitcher. You’ll also need to determine the distances a ball must travel in the air to constitute a singe, double, triple or home run. For example, a ball which travels only 5 to 15 feet might be a single, 15-25 feet a double, 25-35 feet a triple and 35+ a home run.
|
| Rules: |
Burpee is played like regular baseball. If a pitch is inside the strike zone on the wall, its a strike. Otherwise it’s a ball. Three strikes is an out and four balls is a walk. Three outs on both sides constitutes an inning. A caught ball is an out (regardless of whether you use a glove or not) and distance of the ball determines a single, double, triple or home run.
|
| Winning: |
As in baseball, the most runs wins. Play as many innings as you like. |
