Invite the grand-kids for an overnight camping adventure in your own backyard. Have a hula hoop contest. Play old time outdoor backyard games. Think back to the outdoor games you played as a kid in your own backyard and teach them to your grand-kids. Set up the tents, grab the sleeping bags and bug spray. A cake walk.

Backyard Ball During the day, kids would gather, at first one or two, then joined by another and another until there was enough for a game of backyard ball.

When the sun sets, head out to your glowing yard and go on a hunt for all of the rocks! Or if you have a real tent, take it outside and enjoy a backyard campout. Break up into teams and give each team a flashlight or two. Go on a lightening bug hunt. Give everyone a jar and set the timer! Toss them around the yard.
