HELP ME I NEED IDEAS?PLz HELP!?

Question

i babysat today these 2 kids 5(girl) and 7 (boy) anyway we went swimming we swam for a while but i need more games in the pool for us to play

ANY POOL GAMES?

(the games we know so far are: Marco polo,categories,colors,toothpaste,sharks and minnos)

Answer 1

My kids used to love penny hunting. Toss a penny ( a quarter works better) into the shallow end of the pool and let them find it.

Keep an eye on where you toss it, so you can find it of they can't

Answer 2

try buying some floatie toys(as many as you can!) and then telling them that they have to jump onto each one without falling and the first one around wins! or make up some fun games like that

Answer 3

what about tag?

make up your own game.

ask them if they know any games they want to play,

Answer 4

just make up games like tag or get water sticks and see who can get the most

Answer 5

You can make up games. You should let them pick the games because if you pick them, they probably won't like it or who knows maybe they will.

Answer 6

well i know in water your alot lighter, so you could see if they could hold you underwater, or idk, but they probably can, because i can hold my parents under water...

if theres a grass area by the pool you could like have races, umm, jump off the dving board...

it isnt much but i hope i could help

Answer 7

Well me and my cousins we play scuba diver alot. All you need is pool raft and goggles... its kind of 'plain' but its really fun. Try having contests with noodles. See who can stand on one underwater the longest without falling off. Uhhh... You could play acrobats?

Answer 8

They sell pretty cheap games at wal-mart for in the pool like water basket ball and dive rings also have a game that floats and has pegs sticking up and these light weight Frisbee like rings that you try to get on the pegs and score the points on the peg you get it on my 3 oldest really like that one. Good luck and hope this helps.

Answer 9

buy a volleyball like those pool balls & a net to play

or buy those little toys that sink & have them  find them like a challenge on who finds the most

but i'm not sure about the sinking toys because the 5 year old.... lol

or can use a frisbee to play with too!! lol

thats all i can think of..... hope i helped [:

Answer 10

If they are good swimmers you can find dive sticks for about 5.00 at Walmart. You throw them in the pool and they can go look for them. This works best if they use goggles since you don't want them to get chlorine in their eyes.

You can also have races to see who can backstroke, float and swim the fastest or float for the longest time. You can give them rewards such as stickers etc.

Best of luck!
