Fun Underwater Games For Kids

By Harriet Porter


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.

One very interesting game that was inspired by the synchronized swimmers would actually be the handstand contest. Now the rules to this game are very simple as the only thing that the participants would have to do would be to hold a handstand while half their bodies are in the pool. Once their legs go down, then it is game over and the last one standing wins the match.

Now one extremely entertaining and not to mention long game for the kids to play would be underwater tag. Now tag is actually a very common game that most kids would know about because a lot of them would play it. Tag is where a bunch of participants would select an it and the it has to tag someone else in order to transfer his status to the other person but he has to do this before anyone reaches the safe zone.

Now the rules for this version would actually be the same as the original tag but this time the participants will be playing in the pool. Instead of running, the participants would have to be swimming and diving under the water in order to get away from the it. Of course there would also be a designated safe zone for the escapees.

The last game on the list would be diving for treasure. Now this game would just involve tossing a few coins or some other objects into the pool for the participants to get. Now each object would have its own designated number of points and the one who has the most number of points after collecting the objects will win.

So as one can see, there are so many games that guests of a pool party can play. Now since these activities are both fun and challenging, the guests will definitely not get bored the whole time. They will also get tired fast and there be very satisfied with the experience.
