Cheap Indoor and Outdoor Party Games for Kids

Child playing hopscotch

Hopscotch

A classic! If you're playing this on the street, you already know that sidewalk chalk is the way to go. But if you're in the backyard, you can get more creative by spray painting twelve-inch pavers and adding numbers to each. Set the numbered pavers up in a hopscotch pattern and let kids hop, skip and jump!

If you don’t have pavers handy, cut out large squares from brightly colored poster board and draw on numbers with a permanent marker. Punch holes in each corner of the squares and secure to the grass with garden staples.
