Now pool party is complete without a bunch of games for the kids to play in order to entertain themselves while they are there. Now the types of games that would really entertain the guests would be underwater games because these are both fun and challenging. So for those who would want to host an underwater game, here are some ideas to start out from.
Of course one of the most popular game among kids would be the diving for an object at the bottom of the pool. Now the objective of the game is to simply retrieve the item that was tossed into the pool before the others would. Since this is technically a race, the first one who gets the item and brings it to the surface wins.
Another great game to play would be who can hold his breath the longest. As the name implies, the rules would just be the winner who is able to hold his or her breath down under the pool the longest wins. Of course he or she would have to stay down there and not come up in order to be counted.
Now there is one challenging game wherein the participants would have to do a handstand. This is of course known as the underwater handstand contest and is somewhat based on the handstand that the synchronized swimmers would be doing when they are doing their routines. Of course the winner will be the participant who is able to do the handstand the longest.
Now probably a lot of people would know about the game that is known as underwater tag. Of course most kids would be familiar with the popular game that is known as tag wherein one person is an it and he has to run after the others in the game. When the it tags another person, then that person becomes the it provided he does not reach the safe zone.
Now just like the original game, the rules of this version of tag would also apply but the only difference would be the setting. Now instead of a park or a school field, the participants will be in a pool where they have to swim and dive to try to get away. There will also be safe zones in the area near the pool for those running away.
Now the final game on the list is treasure hunter. Now treasure hunter is basically about finding certain items at the bottom of the pool that have a certain number of points attached to them. The objective is to gather as many of these items as possible and try to rack up the highest number of points to become the winner.
So for those who are hosting a pool party for kids, these ideas may be able to help out. What would make these games really fun is the fact that they can be quite a challenge to the children there. The more strenuous the activities are, the more tired they can become and actually the more satisfied they can be.
