By Tiffany Gill


There are not many things that beat summer heat like owning your own swimming pool full of bright blue water under a shade tree in your back yard. Often children will go to great lengths to make friends and invite them to come over and swim in it. Generally the more challenging things to do is finding good pool party games for kids and their playmates to play that will maintain their interest and involvement while still having fun.

When organizing one of these events, you are not required to invest a lot of capital or in several cases massive amounts of your time. What is vital is that it seems well thought out with various activities that involve every child so no one feels left out. Following this program will help ensure more play dates for your kids and a place for you as a successful parent with happy children.

One of the critical things for any good party is choosing a theme. This is the idea or thought you incorporate into it. It might be as easy as a tropic theme with different flowers or very complex like a superhero theme that everyone dresses up like superheroes. Let your kids brainstorm and come up with some ideas that please them. The general idea is to let youngsters use their imaginations in a positive way.

Decorations are always a must for the successful get together. They are what sets the mood and for children they will often help to build the excitement for the day to come. They should be simple, easy to clean up and hopefully inexpensive. A few streamers, some inflatable yard effects and a lei for guest when they arrive.

Games are often the best part of any party. Parents and youngsters can make some easily constructed paper chains that cut off different spaces. You might have places for the various games, around the pool side, a food only place and a kid only by a parent only place. It is important to have ground rules for everyone to follow so everybody has a good time.

There are many good games to try using. Find a coin is where you throw a coin or similar small object in the water to see who will bring it up the quickest. Balloon tossing is where kids toss a filled up water balloon back and forth using only a folded towel held tightly between two people.

Another simple game is the hose limbo. This is when two kids hold a hose up while someone limbos under it. Whoever goes lower is the winner. A simple group game is marco-polo. One chosen player swims around the pool with closed eyes saying marco. The other children reply with polo. When a kid is touched he becomes the new marco person

Always wait around 30 min after drinking or eating before returning to the water. Try getting a pinata to use at the end of the evening. Most children love that stuff. Remember to plan for supervision everywhere. Pool party games for kids usually are great fun, positive supervision will help make sure they stay that way.
