Summer is the perfect time to head to the lake! Between boating, swimming, fishing, and relaxing in the sun, there are plenty of activities to keep you busy. But sometimes, you need a little extra something to make your lake day even more special. That’s where lake vacation games come in!

There are tons of different games you can play in and around the water. Whether you’re looking for group games for a crowd or just want to have some fun with your family, we’ve got you covered.

Water Games for the Lake

When it comes to the lake, we know the one thing all lakes have in common… water! There are so many traditional water games that are great to share with the kiddos. Here’s a list of a few of our favorites you’ll want to give a try.

What are some good water games for the lake?

If you are looking for a list of fun water games for the lake, take a look at a few of these examples.

1. Marco Polo: This classic game is a great way to get everyone moving and enjoying the water. To play, one person is “it” and closes their eyes while counting to 20. This is a perfect pool game if you have one!

The other players swim around and yell “Marco” when they’re close to the person who is “it”. The goal is for the person who is “it” to tag another player. If they’re successful, that player becomes “it” for the next round.

2. Water Balloon Toss: This water game is perfect for a hot day! All you need is a water balloon for each player and a way to keep score.

To play, players stand in a line and toss the balloon to the person behind them. If the balloon pops, that player is out. The last person standing is the winner!

3. Duck, Duck, Goose: This game is a childhood favorite for a reason! To play, one person is “it” and walks around the circle of players tapping each person on the head while saying “duck”.

When they tap someone and say “goose”, that player must chase them around the circle. If the player who is “it” makes it all the way around without getting caught, they stay “it”! Make it a refreshing game by dumping a cup of water over their head when you say “goose”.

4. Cannon Ball / Belly Flop Contest: If you love a good challenge, who can make the biggest splash with their front end or back end might be a fun game. This funny game is especially great with some ~~drunk~~ dads that hate to loose.

How do you make a car ride fun?

We asked some moms, how do you make a car ride fun? There were plenty of fun answers to make a long road trip more comfortable.

Charge electronics before a trip so they kids can have screen time
Pack a lot of snacks
Purchase new toys and games for a car treasure chest
Watch a movie on a car screen
Download audio books
Plan pit stops at fun places

While we agree with many of these ideas, some of them could become quite costly. Instead of adding everything to a very expensive online shopping cart…. Instead of everyone putting on head phones and looking at their tablets…. Put the electronics down and try some low-cost verbal games with your family.

We put together some fun car games for families you can print today! What makes this set of 12 road trip games unique is that they require very few supplies. They are also perfect car boredom busters creating family fun for everyone – young and old.

I Spy: This classic game is perfect for young children and can be played by anyone. One person starts by saying, “I spy with my little eye something that is (color, shape, texture, etc.).” The other players then have to guess what object the first person is thinking of.

20 Questions: This game is similar to I Spy, but instead of describing an object, the player thinks of a person, place, or thing. The other players then get to ask 20 questions to try to figure out what the player is thinking of.

The Alphabet Game: The goal of this game is to spot objects in alphabetical order staring with letter a, then letter b and so on. For example, you might see an Acura, balloon, and cat. The next person would then have to find something that starts with the letter D.

The License Plate Game: This game is played by looking for license plates from different states. The first person to spot a license plate from every state wins the game. It’s hard to get 50 state tags when you involve Hawaii and Alaska!

Animal Name Game: Perfect their spelling you start listing this series of animals. Let the fun continue when each player list the name of an animal that starts when the ending letter of the alphabet from the pervious animal listed. See if you can stump the next player!

Car Cricket: Pay attention to the color of cars and try to score the most points when you are up to bat. This game has no skill but see who will get lucky racking up their points to 100 winning the game first.

Connections: Connect words in this fun ongoing game. It will be quite insightful to see how the whole family sees different words and how different things string together in their mind making each invidudal unique.

Conversation Starters: Get to know your family with these conversation starters. Perfect for the dinner table, they also can be used in the car for road trip fun!

Sing a Long String a Long: Warm up your vocal chords and try to catch a tune. String the line of a song with a new song when you connect words from lyrics

I’m Going on a Picnic: In this game, the first player lists something they are bringing on a picnic. The second person repeats their items and adds one of their own items. The game continues with a string of items added to the picnic basket. (Don’t worry – it doesn’t have to fit inside, get creative with ideas!)

Impersonation: See if you can identify the actor or character your carmate is impersonating!

Alphabet Categories: MORE

What makes these the best car games is they can easily be adapted to younger kids, older kids and even adults. In fact, I was reminiscing playing with my youth group leader as a teen driving cross country. That means, both a 15 year old and 35 year old found this engaging and fun!

These frugal friendly games are mostly spoken word games. So the driver can use his/her mind and engage on the fun too. When a checklist is needed, a passenger can keep track of their score.

Fun Dinner Conversation Starters for Families

Ready for meaningful mealtime conversation? These dinner conversation starters are what you need! Download and print 65+ engaging topics and questions that are a perfect fit for connection at the dinner table. Set includes blank cards to add your own relevant questions.

Dinnertime is a valuable time of the day to connect as a family. It’s a time to share how your day went, to catch up on news, and to enjoy each other’s company. Dinnertime conversation starters are a great resource to keep the conversation flowing and to prevent awkward silences.

Coming up with topics of conversation can be tough, especially for kids. Often small talk occurs but we don’t get to the root of who our child is. We miss this occasion and before we know it days have turned to years and we are waving good-bye in the review mirror as they drive off to college.

That’s why we’ve compiled a list of family dinner conversation starters that will help get the conversation flowing around the table. Turn regular family dinners into a favorite family activity.

Why are Family Dinner Conversation Starters Important?

Family dinner conversation starters are important because they help families connect with each other. They provide a way to share news, catch up on what’s going on in each other’s lives, and enjoy each other’s company.

In addition, family dinner conversation starters can help prevent awkward silences and to encourage friendly talks about important topics and lighthearted conversations that make a big impact on family bonds.

How to Use Family Dinner Conversation Starters

There are many ways to use family dinner conversation starters. They can be used as icebreakers to get the conversation started, or they can be used to keep the conversation going if it starts to lull. The important thing is to find a way to use them that works for your family.

Some families like to go around the table and have each person share one thing about their day. Others like to pick one conversation starter and discuss it as a family. And still others like to use conversation starters as a way to get to know new family members or friends.

Simply print and cut the cards. Add them to a bowl and use as you’d like for a routine dinnertime. You could also make a conversation starter jar. Fold the cards, insert in the mason jar and keep it lidded on the dinning table.

Alternatively, get creative with how you use these cards. Is it a holiday or special time of year? Incorporate the holiday into how you use the conversations. For example, during Easter put a different conversation card in plastic Easter eggs. Put all the eggs in an Easter basket in the center of the table. During the lent season, a family member can draw and an Easter Egg and you can go over different dinner questions during the spring season.

What are Some Good Family Dinner Conversation Starters?

How many times do you use the question “How was your day today?” in a year? For me, I use it daily and often forget to use my pocket full of reliable conversation starters for kids. While it’s great to know about their day, go deeper than asking such a generic question.

Some good family dinner conversation starters include:

Did anything interesting happen at school/work?
What are you looking forward to this weekend?
What was your favorite part of the day?
What are you looking forward to tomorrow?
What was the best thing that happened to you today?
Tell me about your friends.
Who do you admire most and why?
What was the best thing about your day?
What do you like the most about the person sitting to your left?
What is the funniest thing that happened to you this year?
If you could turn someone nice – who would it be?
How would your pet describe you?
What is your favorite family tradition and why?
If you could be invisible for a day, what would you do?

These including funny conversation starters but also deeper conversation starters where you really dig into your child and spouse’s heart. What are are their fears, hopes, desires, dreams?

Dinner Conversation Starters Printable

Erase the awkward silence and create a memory your kids will pass on to their kids. To help get the chatter going, we’ve designed a easy to use printable that you can print out, cut apart, and leave on the table for family dinners.

There are 69 conversation starters and once you use them all, you can go back through the cards- the answers will change over time and depending on who is answering the question. For example, “What was your last thought before going to sleep last night?”

These helpful cards help your family get deep with these discussion starters that are great for both kids and adults. In this Family Conversation Starter Cards Printable PDF Set, there are 69 convo starters and a blank page of 24 so you can add your own questions. Print the blank page as many times as you’d like to create personalized starters for your family or the time of year.

Make time for people who make time and learn more about friends and family at dinner time! Pull out some of the cards and use when hosting a dinner party, for Thanksgiving dinner or even Christmas dinner party. A good friend and party guests might enjoy reliving their earliest memory, dream job, favorite holiday, biggest regret, most desired superpower or favorite movie. They also make great conversation ice breakers for adults and kids alike. It’s the perfect time to use the blank cards to add topics and questions that are a fit for those individuals you are hosting. It’s sure to bring the laughter.

I am here to tell you, it’s possible to have an amazing wedding and lots of fun while saving a penny or two on the entertainment when you add party games.

What are some Unique Wedding Reception Ideas?

If you want your big day to be memorable, it’s important to make it unique. Come up with your own trends and add special touches and unheard of ideas to your wedding celebration. This makes your wedding stand out so that the couple and guests are talking for years to come .

A few unique wedding ideas for the reception include…

Repurpose Vintage Décor. Visit Goodwill, thrift stores and your grandmother’s attic. Use old finds to repurposed wedding decorations.
Decorate with Fruit. The cost of flowers can add up quickly. Decorate with fruit. Not only do you have an edible table runner, citric fruit looks beautiful in a bowl or can be used in the center of a plate as a place card holder.
Wine Tasting. Turn the event into wine tasting party. You control the amount of alcohol served saving on the bar tab.
Hire a Band for One Hour. To get the entertainment and festivities started, hire a mariachi band or carnival dancers. This gets everyone up and moving. Once your wedding party is glued to the dance floor these individuals can slip out while you keep the music playing on a pre-set wedding playlist.
Video Game Station. It’s its fitting to the bride or groom, set up a video game station. this can be fun for younger guests or adults who are still kids at heart.
Wedding Piñata. Who doesn’t love candy? Have a wedding Piñata for the guests and wedding party. You also can have a candy bar for everyone to enjoy more sweet treats.
DIY Ribbon Wands. Tie ribbons to wooden dowels. They bring wedding décor to the dance floor when the guests sway them in the air. They also are a fun exit for the bride and groom.
Hire an Artists. Art work can be expensive plus sometimes the art isn’t even personal. Get a painted portrait of your big day when you hire a local artists. It’s two birds with one stone as you are left with a beautiful canvas to display in your home after the big event.
Play Wedding Games for Entrainment. Entertainment like DJs, bands, an emcee can be quite costly. Have a member of the wedding party lead the entire group in wedding reception games. This an be played at any location and with any size guests list but it is especially perfect for a backyard wedding or small wedding.

Of course, we think the best ideas is adding games to your wedding reception. Games are great way to get people talking, laughing and getting to know one another!

Wedding Game Ideas for Reception

When planning the entertainment for your reception, wedding games are a must when it comes to budget wedding ideas. They are very affordable, are excellent ice breakers for meeting new people, and they provide activities for the venue.

These wedding games are not for everyone but they make a perfect activities addition to a backyard wedding or intimate wedding. Take a look at some of our favorite wedding games. These games can be played on the wedding day, at a rehearsal dinner or even during a bridal shower.

Donuts on a String

Who said this is a kids party game. While this would be a great wedding game for the kids, adults will love it too! Forget the donut wall for a wedding, have donuts on a string. Guests have to work for this tasty snack. It provides oodles of fun and a sweet treat as a reward.

Wedding Story Mad Libs

In this wedding Mad Libs version, you need someone who knows the bride and groom well. It might actually be the bride and groom themselves. Have the bride and groom write a narrative. This can be a story about meeting, their favorite vacation, getting engaged or another memorable event. Remo common adjectives, nouns, verbs and even adverbs. Have guests replace these missing words with their own words. These stories can be collected for the couple later or one person can share this wedding table game aloud to the guests. Plenty of laughter ahead.

The Shoe Game

When you are removing the garter or tossing the bouquet is an excellent time to introduce the shoe game. The bride and groom sit back to back. Each holding one of their own and one of their spouse’s shoe. A leader asks a series of questions like “who is the spider killer” or “who is most likely to run late?” Instead of answering the question aloud, the couple raises the shoe of the corresponding question. See how well the bride and groom know each other!

Prosecco Pong

Just like beer pong, only classier. In this fun tabletop game, line up plastic glasses in a triangle. Allow players to toss ping-pong balls into prosecco filled glasses. There is no loosing in this adult drinking game as everyone gets tasty sips while playing.

Wedding Dare Cards

I bet you have never played truth or dare at a wedding. Well this wedding table game is just a series of dares. Each table is given a dare on their name place card. For every guests that completes their dare, the table scores points. The table with the most points at the end of the evening, wins.

Stand Up, Sit Down Wedding Game

This is a great ice breaker game for many events. In this trivia game, guests will stand up and down based on questions either about the bride and groom or about the wedding guests. For example, stand up if you are wearing blue, stand up if you think you have known the bride and groom the longest, etc.

Building Block Centerpiece Creations

If you love an interactive activity that is hands-on, this activity is for you. Instead of spending on costly centerpieces, add LEGO blocks to the table. Guests will create their own wedding centerpieces and tablescape using building blocks. Best centerpiece wins dips at the buffet line or an extra slice of cake.

Wedding Photo Scavenger Hunt

Save on the cost of the wedding photography when you bring forth a wedding photo treasure hunt. Each table will get a disposable camera and a checklist of wedding photos to take. This an include the bride and groom sharing kisses, the best dance moves on the dance floor, a funny face, cutting the wedding cake and more. You can even get a photo of all your guests by asking each table in the wedding hunt to take a group selfie in the photo booth or with the hand held camera reversed. It gives you a variety of photos for your wedding photo album as seen through the wedding guests eyes and not the wedding photographer.

Couple Fortune Tellers

Have paper fortune tellers at the table. Guests can spend time crafting fun date ight ideas…..

ORE MORE MORE

At the end, add them to an oversized date night jar as date night ideas for the happy couple.

Suck It Up Relay Race

If you love a good minute to win it game, this wedding idea is for you! Using those pastel soft mints and straws, move mints from one bowl to another. The trick is you cannot use your hands. Only your mouth and the straw. See who can complete this task the fastest to be declared the winner.

If you don’t have an Emcee master of ceremonies, DG or a wedding party member that is willing to lead these games, you can also consider getting some common wedding games online. These games will be self lead. While these wedding game ideas are not as budget-friendly as our printable wedding games, but they are fun nonetheless. In addition, many of these lawn games can be used at future events including birthday parties, tailgates, picnics, family reunions and more.
