Ball Playground Games

Spud

2nd grade and up

Kids stand in a circle. One throws up a kickball or a drug store ball (one that will not hurt when it hits) and calls out another's name. All the kids run and scatter. When the kid catches the ball, they yell stop. The other kids have to stop running. The kid who has the ball tries to hit the closest kid with the ball. If the kid they aim at gets hit, the hit kid gets the letter "S" (of S-P-U-D). If the kid they aim at catches the ball or doesn't get hit, the kids who throws the ball gets the letter "S".  Then all the kids go in a circle again and the kid whose name was called the last time throws up the ball and it starts all over. As the kids get the whole word SPUD spelled out, they are out of the game. For a longer game, pick a longer word.

Blindfold Games

Dog and the Bone*	2nd grade and up	Kids sit in a circle. One blindfolded kid is the dog with a bone (any object) next to them. The other kids have to steal the bone without the dog hearing. If the dog can figure out who it was, they have to be able to point at the right person.
Fang*	3rd grade and up	This is a Native American game. One kid, the snake,  is blindfolded and holds a rolled up newspaper (the fang). The other kids stand far away from the snake. One at a time each has one chance to touch the snake on the head. The snake has one chance to use their fang.

Brain Games

These are not necessarily only for the "gifted". There are some kids who just love these puzzles. You might just discover that all your kids are "gifted"...
Mensa 75 Riddles and Conundrums	6th grade and up	This is a set of cards with problems. Great for a group of kids to solve together.
Shape By Shape	3rd grade and up	Individual kids have to make a set of shapes match a picture. There are two levels of play - one that shows which pieces go where and one that shows just an outline.
ThinkFun Square By Square	3rd grade and up	Individual kids have to make a set of shapes match a picture. There are two levels of play - one that shows which pieces go where and one that shows just an outline. This one just uses squares.
Tangrams	3rd grade and up	Individual kids have to make a set of shapes match a picture. There are two levels of play - one that shows which pieces go where and one that shows just an outline.

Building

LEGO Ultimate Building Set - 405 Pieces	1st grade and up	Classic. Don't get the sets that make something particular. Just get the pieces. This will encourage their creativity, even though they will not thank you at first.
Knex Value Tub 400 pieces	2nd grade and up	Never as popular as lego. Its a good idea to sit down and show them how all the pieces fit together.
Motors	3rd grade and up	We've had mixed results with these. Some kids don't build anything and just want to put the motor on anything, and some kids have been brilliant. Its a toss up. And the motors are not remote - they are attached, so its like walking a dog. Lego makes some and K'nex does too.
Clock Puzzle Clock	5th grade and up	This is complicated. Something for kids who have built things before and can follow an exploded view drawing.  Challenging, but good. Make it a race with two.
Mousetrap	4th grade and up	This is in the building section because 1/2 the time you spend playing the game is the building, but kids love it - as long as they have help the first time figuring it out.
Sandbox	1st grade and up	Lifting the bags of sand is AWFUL! So get a cover that secures on top. Put it somewhere shady. This can entertain for HOURS.  Add some old pots or sifters and toys that stay in the sandbox.
Boxes*	1st grade and up	The refrigerator box, the stove box...all golden garbage.  Ask them where they want a window or what other building materials they need.  Boxes are now underestimated by adults and unimagined by kids, which is sad.
Hammer, Wood and Nails	5th grade and up	If parents only knew how many kids are desperate to build...a hammer, some easy to nail wood, nails, and a little instruction and they are SO happy

Top

Dancing/Singing

Couples Dancing*	5th grade and up	Hygiene class first! Then this essential form of playing helps young men and women learn to respect each other. Just teaching them to hold hands and work together to make the box step is a life lesson.
Karaoke	All	Just let them sing. The best is when a teenager will emcee for the younger kids to sing.

Deduction

Battleship	middle School	Old favorite. Great for learning to strategize and deduce. This also teaches coordinates on a graph.
Clue	middle school	You'd be surprised how many kids cannot understand how to look for the missing fact. Mind opening game for some kids. And still just as fun.
Spy Alley	4th to 8th grade	A new classic. Kids can play this one over and over. Its a lot like clue. Kids have to collect a disguise etc. before the other kids and return to their embassy without anyone guessing which spy they are. We play that kids can guess anyone who is on the part of board that is the alley for a quicker game.
Mastermind	middle school and up	This is a high level of deduction game for the inspired kid. They have to guess the color and order of the pegs. They have only a few chances to guess it correctly basing  each new guess on the responses of the other person who set the original pattern.

Following Directions

Mind Your Manners Game	kindergarteners can play this if adults read the cards. Never too soon to learn basic manners.	Kids have to count and go backwards or forwards like the card says.
Snap Clap and Slap Card Game	3rd grade and up	Kids have to clap, snap or slap like the card says.
Chutes and Ladders	2nd grade and up	Counting and following the directions of a chute or a ladder.

Playing Cards Crazy Eights	3rd grade and up	This is the ancestor to Uno.
Simon Says*	1st grade and up	A leader tells the kids what to do. If the leader says "simon says" the kids should do it. if the leader doesnt say "simon says", the kids should not do it and the kids that did  follow are out.

General

Yo-yos	4th grade and up	Always a hit. Don't get a super-cheap one.
Metal Jacks & Ball	4th grade and up	This is best introduced to bored kids. Some kids love them, some don't. Never get the plastic ones. They are awful!
Marbles	2nd grade and up (old enough to fit the shooter in their hand)	This one surprised us. Kids will still love the simplest marble game. Draw a circle in chalk on the sidewalk. Put all the marbles in the circle. And kids have to knock as many marbles out of the circle line as they can, using proper marble shooting form and staying behind the line. These are always at the dollar store. Be sure they have the shooter in the bag.
Rock 'Em Sock 'Em ROBOTS Game	1st grade and up	With all the  fighting video games on earth, you'd think these antiques would be out of style. Nope. They LOVE these.
SKIP BO Card Game	5th grade and up	This is like a complicated Uno for kids who like it, but have played it a million times. Nice for camping, long hot summer days, and rainy days.

Geography Games

Atlas Adventure	Ten and up	In this game kids each build their own puzzle by winning pieces to a map of the world. The questions are hard, but they can guess. The trick is for the same kids to play this several times so they remember the answers.  Kids who think they are supposed to know the answers will be frustrated. Kids who can let go and just guess do better.
Wooden US Puzzle/World Puzzles	K-5th or 6th grade	We don't know why they love the big wooden puzzles but they do, well into  5th or 6th grade.
Scrambled States	3rd grade and up	No better way to learn states and capitals. Kids race to find  capitals, mottoes, and  to find the states relative to each other. Brilliant. Any age of person who wants to learn their states and capitals.  The winner of our Golden Porch Award.
Latitude and Longitude	4th grade and up	Make up a list of places, note their latitude and longitude. Give teams atlases and the list of latitude and longitude with blanks next to them. Explain latitude and longitude and that they are racing around the world, first team to identify all the places is the winner.

Grammar Games

There is no way to disguise grammar. Kids always know. We use the word "game" here loosely.
Mad Libs	Middle School	They have to know what the parts of speech are in order to fill in the blanks to make funny sentences. Make sure they see the sheet in there that explains parts of speech and give it to the kid who is coming up with the words.
Go to Press	Middle to High School	This is a Clue-esque game. It is not super hard so it is fairly enjoyable for kids, but they are still happy when educational game time is over.

Group Games

Family Feud	Middle School and Up	Super Fun. Team Building
Pictionary	Only for kids who have a similar drawing ability and who like to draw.	We think that with some group of kids out there, this well designed game could be fun. But we've only ever seen it turn into fights. :(
Spoons (regular playing cards and spoons from the kitchen)	As soon as a kid can understand  they have to match everything in their hand. If they cannot, DO NOT let them play - they will hold onto cards other kids need and then the other kids will hate them (temporarily).	This game is the musical chairs of card games.  Have one less spoon than there are kids. Deal four cards to each kid. The dealer passes the cards around one at a time , kids look and see if it will help them get 4 of a kind. If they don't, they pass it on. When someone gets 4 of a kind they grab a spoon. Whoever didn't get a spoon is out. Play continues, taking one spoon away, until there is just one spoon and one winner.
Pit Card Game	As soon as a kid can understand  they have to match everything in their hand. If they cannot, DO NOT let them play - they will hold onto cards other kids need and then the other kids will hate them (temporarily).	This fast paced, yelling, insane, old card game teaches about the commodities market to kids. Great with 8 or 9 kids. One of the best games ever invented.

Jump Rope

The Jump Rope	Invest in a good one. Ones from the dollar store or that seem too cheap often stick to the cement when they are twirled. A waste of money and the earth's resources. Make a rule that it is not to be used for tug of war. You can also get that rope they sell at the hardware store that looks just like jumprope, but it comes in a big bundle.  Kids like the ones with the beads on them but those also hurt when they hit - get those for experienced jumpers.
Double Dutch	Find someone to teach this jump rope method for twirling two jump ropes at once. It is a great challenge for kids who are already experts at one rope.
Jump the Rope Jingles	Many kids do not know jump rope jingles anymore. Get this book or another. Ask older kids in your neighborhood if they know any. Don't let this fine tradition die off. Find ones that are boy friendly because they like to jump too. If they are reluctant, see if they will try tricks.
Chinese Jumprope	Kids still love this game. The instructions are on the back of the packet - don't lose it!

Languages/Cultures

Lingo	1st grade and up	This is bingo in a bunch of different languages with the bingo cards being pictures of food. The down side is that the caller needs to speak the languages they are calling in. The up side is that if young kids play this game about 3 times in the same language in a row, they know those words in a different language. We are unable to locate the great UNICEF Lingo listed on the left, but found an ok substitute - it is only in a single language. :(  French, Spanish Bingo
See It and Sign It Game-Intro to ASL	1st grade and up	This is a bingo game using sign language.  It has two levels: beginners and  advanced. Kids need to use the DVD or the cards to learn the signs basically before starting, but it doesn't take long.
Passport To Culture	8th grade and up	This is your basic, pick up a card and ask a question. No one knows these answers about cultures all over the earth, so it can frustrate some kids. Curious kids enjoy the guessing.

Top

Life Choices

Game of Life	4th grade and up	We have yet to find a better game to make kids think about if they want to have kids, what insurance is, what happens when you gamble, if you want to go to college etc.
Careers	5th grade and up	This game still interests kids. They follow career paths.

Top

Math Games

Double 6 Dominoes	As soon as they can count up to 6	Get the ones that are not in color so kids will have to count the dots, not identify by color.
Bingo	As soon as they are learning double digit numbers	Yes, just regular bingo helps them learn to identify numbers.
Make 7	As soon as they learn to add	This is like connect 4, only the pieces are numbers that have to add up to 7.

Maya Madness Game	As soon as they are introduced to negative numbers in school.	A great way to practice  using negative numbers. It takes a little while to go through the directions, but it's not a complicated game and its fun.
Uno	1st grade	Help children learn to recognize and match numbers-especially when they are with older kids, trying to keep up.
Odd or Even*	1st grade and up	Each child gets an envelope with 20 beans in it. Kids can hold as many in their closed hand as they want. The other kids guess if there are an odd or even number of beans there. If they are right, they get them. If they are wrong, the kid holding the beans keeps them. Put a time limit on this game. Kids just roam around the room asking each other. Whoever has the most beans at the end is the winner. To help kids who don't know their odds from evens, post a list showing which numbers are even and which are odd.

Memory/Observation/Matching

Stare! Junior	Inspired 4th graders and up	Kids stare at a picture then stop looking at it and answer questions. The Jr. version is hard enough for adults.
Scan Card Game	4th grade and up	This challenging visual game has four different matches on each card. Kids have to match one of the four to the other cards laying out.
Old Bachelor	1st grade and up	This game is a take off on Old Maid. Kids pick cards from each other's hands and make matches. Whoever is left with the old bachelor is the loser. It's good for the kids to play this and Old Maid - gender balance.
Hocus Focus Card Game	3rd grade and up	This is a matching game that's harder than just memory because just a part of the picture changes.

Top

Money Games

Pit Card Game	As soon as a kid can understand  they have to match everything in their hand. If they cannot, DO NOT let them play - they will hold onto cards other kids need and then the other kids will hate them (temporarily).	This fast paced, yelling, insane, old card game teaches about the commodities market to kids. Great with 8 or 9 kids. One of the best games ever invented.
Monopoly	3rd grade and up	The classic game to learn about real estate and counting money.  Never buy the one where they don't count the money. The essential value of monopoly is to learn to count - the numbers on the dice, the money you have etc. If you want dumb kids who won't ever be able to manage their own money, get the credit card one.
Shopping Spree	1st grade and up	This game they go around the board collecting one thing from each store and the winner is whoever finishes shopping first. Fabulous for teaching about money and making change.
Stock Market Tycoon	Middle School and up	This is an excellent game to  learn about the stock market. It takes a little while to explain the game, but once they get it, the game isn't so complicated. Kids buy stock and then the stocks go up or down as the game goes on.
The Price is Right Game - New 2nd Edition	About 8 years old and up.	This game is hard to set up, but kids learn the relative prices of everything. This is a good life skill to have.  An adult needs to give a lot of help for this one.
Store*	K-5th grade	A cash register (if you have one), play money, a bunch of old stuff, and tape/marker to price it all. Hours and hours of fun.
Restaurant*	k - 5th grade	Menu (ones they make on paper or on a posterboard), old plates, food (invisible, made from play doh, from nature, or plastic), cash register and play money.

Nature

Tree Climbing*	All	Find one to start with that has a split down low so kids can get an idea of how to hold on and pull themselves up. There was actually a kid who almost lived in the tree in front of the Porch. Some kids NEED to climb. Let them.
Bug Hunting*	All	Get a jar with a metal lid. Put holes in the top with hammer and nails. Keep one by each door in the house. Teach the kids to let them go.
Digging	All	Just give them boundaries of where they can dig and let them. Kids with ADD seem to gravitate toward this.
Jump in the Leaves*	All	Rake the leaves into a pile and jump in them. Be sure they are dressed to play.
Sledding	All	Let the kids build their own snow hill. Then bring out a pitcher of water pour it on the hill on a very cold day. Fast, good stuff.
Follow the Leader in the Snow*	All	When the snow is deep, play follow the leader in the steps you make in the snow.
Building with snow*	All	Keep some stronger buckets and recycled tubs for snow building. If you are with them, let them boss you. You will be surprised what they build.
Sandcastles*	All	The summer version of snow building. Keep some stronger buckets and recycled tubs for building. See if you need to show them the correct consistency of sand/water mixture so they don't get frustrated.

Pretend Games

Dress Up
Just put these out. Kids usually just go to it. If they don't, put some on yourself as an example. Play runway, make a movie, do a play, make a music video. Adults can be the monster in the movie, the emcee for the fashion show. So fun!
Costumes	1st and up	Older kids will get in them if you can get some of the cool older kids to wear them. Get them on sale after Halloween.
Fabric	1st and up	From the discount bin or a place that resells industrial materials (in the Detroit area Arts and Scraps) Be sure to have some belts in there, safety pins for older kids, and other belt/attaching type accessories.
Old clothes*	1st and up	From a thrift store - a little washing and voila, hours of fun.
Pretend Places
Bike Freeway	As soon as they can ride a bike	Some chalk and bikes. Draw a line down the middle of a sidewalk and you have a road. A more elaborate game could be with a pad of paper and a pencil for one kid to give out tickets. Kids will take it from there.
Restaurant*	1st grade and up	A cash register, play money, a bunch of old stuff, and tape/marker to price it all. Hours and hours of fun.
Store*	1st grade and up	Menu (ones they make on paper or on a posterboard), old plates, food (invisible, made from play doh, from nature, or plastic), cash register and play money.
Tea Party*	1st  and up	Some old cups and a piece of fabric to sit on. You can make it more elaborate with some real beverage and snacks, but for kids to be able to recreate it without adult help, less is more. Kids value the time adults spend sitting with them and the chance to direct the tea party. Grown ups should do what they tell you to do. It's their time.
Pretending while entertaining
Puppet Shows	1st and up	Socks and a table flipped on its side will do. Or add puppets made from paper bags. Older kids who are hams are a surprising addition to puppet show. Invite them.
Movie Making	1st and up	Video cameras are magic for kids, especially ones who are reluctant to imagine. They will be hooked the first time they see the playback. The monster movie is the easiest way to start movie making. Only let responsible kids hold the camera (our limit is 13 and up).

Science Games

Skeletons in the Closet Game	middle school and up	Kids spin a spinner and answer questions about the bones in the body. Not the most fun game (kids never picked this for free time), but the least painful way to learn the bones of the body. They really do learn them after playing it a couple times.
Bird Bingo	3rd grade and up	Maximum learning happens when the caller reads the back of the card explaining about the birds and asking what the kids know about the birds.
Bingo Bug	3rd grade and up	Maximum learning happens when the caller reads the back of the card explaining about the bugs and what the kids know about the bugs.
Gemstones Playing Cards	5th grade and up	This takes some prep work, but we take these to the local natural history museum, break up into teams and treasure hunt for the gems on the cards. A riot and the kids read every display card this way. Sneaky!
Fingerprint Kit	5th grade and up	This shows kids how to take fingerprints and observe them. A great kit. Turn it into a game by having them figure out whose fingerprint is on something.
Mummy Rummy	middle school and up	This is a hard game for some kids to get. It is a card game where kids have to match three pieces of ancient objects. This is a hate or love game for kids.
Scientific Explorer's Mystery Detective CSI for Kids Science Kit	4th grade and up	This game is GREAT. It includes science experiments to do to find out who did it. Kids learn about DNA matching, fingerprints, acids/bases.
The Way Things Work Game	middle school and up	This game is your basic - pull a card and answer a question. It has a few gizmos with it, but overall the kids weren't fond of it. However they were more fond of this than a science worksheet.

Strategy Games

Some kids really HATE strategy games. You may notice that they will hate these games and you can see the pattern. We aren't sure why they hate them, but you may want to try games from another category for those kids.
Coloraddo	4th grade and up	A great game where kids put down cards that have squares of color on them. They have to figure out how to place each square down to connect to other squares of the same colors in a row. An undiscovered classic.
Blokus	4th grade and up	For four kids - no less. It is no fun unless all 4 kids play.  Kids put down plastic pieces touching corners only. It is challenging enough to keep their interest.
Travel Blokus	4th grade and up	For two kids. Same game as above.
Ceega	5th grade and up	This game is from ancient Egypt. You put two marbles on either side of the other person's to flip them. It looks like a dumb game...until you play it. Its hard to win. We cannot find this game for sale, but you can find instructions to play it online.
Chess	3rd grade and up	Once you explain what each piece does and they play it twice, most kids can beat the average adult.
Chess Puzzles Book	5th grade and up	For kids who love chess, this book challenges them.
Chinese Checkers & Checkerboard ( Hardboard )	3rd grade and up	Teach kids the strategy of setting up jumps and help them learn to jump following the lines on the board. This is a great game because when you jump the other guys, you don't take them, so its less competitive than most games. Never get the one that is cardboard with the pegs. They always come loose.
Battleship	4th grade and up	Old favorite. Great for learning to strategize and deduce. This also teaches coordinates on a graph.
Ravensburger Labyrinth	4th grade and up	Kids slide a card onto the board to push a card at the other end off and rearrange this maze in order to get the treasure they seek. This game takes a long time and is a solid challenge. Great for a rainy day for kids with patience.
Othello	4th grade and up	This is like Ceega, but a little simpler. Kids put down pieces, trying to get one of their guys on each side of the other guy's pieces to flip it to their color.
Quoridor classic	5th grade and up.	This magnificently simple game has offense and defense. It looks stupid when you pull it out of the box - expect some eye rolls.  Kids can choose to move their guy forward toward the last line on the board on the other side, or put up a piece of a wall to block the other guy. Great to make them think.
Dominoes	4th grade and up	Regular dominoes and Mexican train can fill up many summer days.
Tri-Ominos	5th grade and up	This is for the more inspired strategy-minded kid. Its dominoes, but you have to match more than one side of the domino.
Deluxe Backgammon Case	none	We have never met a child who liked this game. We aren't sure why because they love its ancient ancestor....mancala
Two-Person Mancala	3rd grade and up	Kids race around the board to get their pieces home. They love it, but beware - its a game where cheater kids take liberty.
Four-Player Mancala	3rd grade and up	This is the same as mancala for two, only it takes a very long time. Another rainy day game. Not for the impatient kids.
Connect Four	2nd grade and up	Vertical checkers where kids need to get four in a row and block the other kids.
Checkers	1st grade and up	Be sure kids have their own rules straightened out before playing. Some kids play that kings can jump across a whole row etc.

Top

Strategy Games: Meaner

Sorry	2nd grade	The classic mean game, where kids can send each other back to start as they race around the board. They love this game, but we aren't so sure its good for their spirits.
Parcheesi Royal Edition	2nd grade	This is the ancient Indian ancestor to Sorry. Kids can block each other from continuing around the board AND send them back.
Stay Alive	2nd grade	In this game, kids hope that their marble is the last one left on the board as they pull levers sinking the other kids. The game lasts 5 minutes and they will play it one million times.
Trouble Board Game	1st grade	This is like a baby Sorry. Kids race around the board and can send each other home.
Aggravation	2nd grade	This is a lot like Sorry, only with marbles and a brilliant way to jump across the board in a few spots.

Top

Tag

Sardines*	2nd grade and up	This is hide and go seek, but opposite. One person hides and everyone else seeks them. The last person to find the hider is it.
Ghost in the Graveyard*	2nd grade and up	This is hide and go seek, but only one person is the hider. When a seeker finds the hider, they yell ghost in the graveyard and everyone has to run to the safe place before the hider catches one of them.
Blob*	2nd grade and up	This is tag, but when a kid is tagged, they are then it also. The game continues until everyone is tagged except one person, the winner.
Frozen Tag*	2nd grade and up	This is tag, only when a kid is tagged, they have to stay where they were when they were tagged and in the same position. They can only move when another kid tags them.

Top

Walking/Chase Games

Mr. Fox*	2nd grade and up	One kid (the fox) stands with their back to the other kids who are about 20 feet back from them. They yell, "What time is it Mr. Fox." The Fox yells back, for example, "2 o'clock". And they all take 2 steps toward Mr. Fox. They take turns asking and moving until they fox thinks they are close enough to catch. When the fox thinks so, s/he responds "midnight!" when asked for the time.  The fox turns and chases everyone back to the line they started at. Whoever then fox catches is then the next fox.
Cats in the Corner*	2nd grade and up	Four kids stand in each corner of a large sidewalk square. One kid stands in the middle. Kids in the corners switch places while the kid in the middle tries to tag them. This is one of the oldest tag games and most fun.

Top

Word Games

$10,000 Pyramid Home Game	Middle to high school	Expands their vocabulary. Make them stick with one card until they have used all the words up. Provide dictionaries.
Library Race*	4th grade and up	This game forces children to learn where different kinds of books are located. Its like a tour of the library. Ask the librarian if you can play this game first because it makes a giant stack of books to put away. The adult goes around ahead of time and makes up questions they have to find the name of the book they found the answer to and the place they found it. An example of a question is "Peru is a county in South America. Name one animal that lives there."
Password	Middle to  high school	Expands their vocabulary. Make them stick with one card until they have used all the words up. Provide dictionaries.
Wheel of Fortune	5th grade and up, but younger kids like to pretend play it	Kids can't stop playing this game. Sometimes the words are too hard for them to guess so try to help them pick which words they put up.
Wordfinds	All	Most kids like these.
Mad Libs	4th grade and up	Great to get them to read and be creative.
Scrabble Crossword Game	5th grade and up	Some kids HATE this game and some LOVE it. Its always a gamble. Be sure kids of equal vocabulary are playing together.
Boggle	5th grade and up	Be sure kids understand how to connect the letters.
