Activity 10: Water balloon sit

This is a great game for a group of kids who are looking to get wet on a hot summer day.

Materials:
Water balloons
water
two large buckets


Instructions:
Blow up all of the balloons, filling about a quarter of them and number them with a sharpie. Blind fold the participants, and have them call out a number. Grab the balloon of the number that they requested, and place it on the ground where they are going to sit, or on their chair. Have them sit on the balloon to reveal if the balloon was filled with water or not! There is really no point to the game other than to have a good time and cool off!

Adaptations:
If the person has poor gross motar skills, I recommend using a chair for them to sit in; it may be hard to sit down on the ground safely or get up blind folded.
  • Also, if they don't wish to sit on the balloon, they can break the balloon with their hands or you can even break it over their head!!
