When you are not swimming, fishing, hiking, biking or boating...When you're not cooking, eating or sleeping at your campsite..what are some games you can enjoy at your campsite?
Depending upon how much room you have at your site, here are some great options:
Bocce Ball (or lawn bowling) - This game is similar to shuffleboard. One person tosses the yellow or white ball (the Palino ball). This is now the target. The other players then take turns to get their colored balls to be the closest to the yellow ball.
Ladderball (or Hillbilly Golf) -From a predetermined distance, 2 players or teams toss the golf ball ropes towards the ladder. Depending on what level the rope lands on determines the number of points received. For those with limited space, you can get just 1 ladder.
Corn Hole (or bag toss) - From a predetermined distance, 2 players or teams toss the bean bags or corn bags towards the hole on the opposite side. You score points by your bag going through the hole or landing on the box. This game is generally larger, and unless you had extra room, like a truck or a camper, you might find it too big for camping. Again, you can just buy one target instead of two.
Washer Toss - Similar to corn hole, but with a smaller target and smaller throwing objects. This one would travel easier for those with limited space.
Kan Jam - 2 teams or players take turns throwing the Frisbee towards the can. The teammate on the other side should hit the Frisbee so that it lands inside the can. The cans fold down flat making them easy to travel.
Volleyball - 2 teams or players take turns hitting the ball over the net. Many sets also come with Badmitton rackets.
Of course my boys just bring a football to play catch, or possibly an impromptu game with friends they make in the campground. They also grab their ball gloves and a baseball for the same purpose. You could also bring just a Frisbee for throwing at the campsite or at the beach. If you are near sand, you might be sure to have sand castle tools with you.
