Interesting and fun filled games for kids of 3-6years !
The life of metros has made most of us to keep our kids indoors. The fight between allowing an outdoor play vs keeping kids protected inside has been increasing regularly in the minds & hearts of parents. Some allow their kids to have an outdoor feel only on weekends. But is this really good for kid? If I were to say, then Socially & emotionally, it is not good. But yes to me also, safety & security comes first for our precious kids. And hence it gave me a chance to interact with fellow moms and comes across a post suggesting some really good games for kids.
These games can be installed in your balcony or even in the backyards or if you have a small space, then even lobby area can work great. Kids need some physical play games and with their 2-3 friends joining in, it can be a great way to build their social, emotional time while playing.
5 Semi-outdoor games for Kids :
These games are good for kids who are 3+, but kids are getting smarter, some options can be even great for 2-2.5year old kid, you never know how the interest takes the developmental journey.
1. Archery – The Bows and Arrows :
Ready for the beginning of a young archer? An interesting, safe play suitable for indoor as well as outdoor is this bow and arrow dart game. It is delightfully simple, durable and will ensure a good grip in your kids hands. Why not give it a try, kids rejoice & love their archery sets lot!
2. Air Hockey :
Oh forget kids, I love playing Air hockey so much! Its a total fun to play with kids or elders. Apart from enjoyment, it is so important for the cognitive development of kid and demands instant action basis the opposition. A great game for motor skill development as well. A healthy competitive game, I love this the most and is a great addition to the fun games .
3. Mid-Sized Foosball :
Just like Air Hockey, Foosball is a perfect family & kids game. Even it can be a game arranged during the party of your kids birthday! Get your kid ready for this fast paced Foosball competition with his friends for an amazing play. Further, let me tell you, this will also help in cognitive development of a child, since it involves quick action & involves ample grey matter functioning:)
4. Basketball Play Set :
One of the game, my kid loves & me too since I have it in my lobby & he plays perfectly with it. With an adjustable height, your child can play it indoors or outdoors anywhere. Further , since the height is adjustable it can be used for quite 2-3 years as well. With being a great support in Physical activity, basketball when played in group also helps your child learn team work & socialise.
5. The Dark Knight Scooter :
This is something our boys would love to have. While racing across the house or taking it to the garden, it has an equal charm. This scooter develops eye-hand coordination of a child and can be easily balanced for a fun ride.
