Some Great Ideas For Underwater Games

By Harriet Porter


If one is hosting a pool party for kids, it is always good to have some fun activities for the kids to play in order to keep the party interesting. One of the best things to do would be to come up with some underwater games for the kids to be able to play. For those who are new to these kinds of things, here are some ideas that may work quite well.

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.

Now another old game that many kids would play would be holding the breath under the water. Basically, the participants would just have to go down underwater and just hold their breaths. Now the one who is able to hold his breath the longest time will be the winner.

Now another very nice game that a lot of children would play would be the underwater handstand contest. Now this game was actually based on the way synchronized swimmers would actually do a handstand while under the water. The goal here would be to try to hold the handstand as long as possible without the legs going down and the last one in the handstand position will be the winner.

One of the very classic games to play under the water would of course be underwater tag. Everyone is probably familiar with the game that is known as tag wherein there will be an it and the others have to run away from the it. The it on the other hand has to tag someone else before that person reaches the safe zone.

Playing tag in the pool actually is no different but it is actually much harder to do now because of the environment one is playing in. Now instead of a field wherein one can run around, one will now be swimming instead. Now just like in normal tag, there would be an it and a safe zone for the runners to hide.

Now one of the most interesting games in the list is the dive for treasure game. Basically, one will be throwing a number of objects into the bottom of the pool wherein each item has a corresponding number of points. Based on the items that the participants collected, the one with the most number of points 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.
