It is Memorial Day Weekend and you know what that means! Summertime is here! If you feel anything like I do, you spent way too much time indoors this winter and are looking forward to some time outside over the next few months. I am jazzed for backyard barbecuing, for porch-swing lounging, and for walks through the neighborhood.
But let’s face it, sometimes those routines get a little boring. Or our little ones are tempted by the lure of exciting toys and games indoors, and outdoors begins to look boring. That’s exactly why I’ve put together this list of DIY Family Lawn games!
Take family game night outside with these whimsical, often over-sized games. They are perfect for casual family fun, for camping, or even entertaining.
I know that I’ve already added most of these to hubby’s to-do list. And some of the more portable ones are destined for our family camping trip! Spending time outside with family, while playing a fun game (and maybe enjoying some delicious food and drink) is the ultimate summer in my opinion. How about you?

We made a version of Jenga out of old pieces of wood left over from a DIY project, we ended up going out and buying lengths of wood to make our own. A great family game for the garden, super cheap and fun all summer (the adults can play after in the evening with a glass of wine or a beer too!)

Backgammon is one of the oldest known board games
Backgammon involves a combination of strategy and luck (from rolling dice).
Like chess, backgammon has been studied with great interest by computer scientists.
These are all great ideas! I know my kids and I are antsy to get outside now that it is warming up.
This is such a fun list, my boys would love these games. Pinning for later. Thanks for sharing!
