Making memories this summer can be as simple as playing backyard games, cranking your favorite music and having a little water time fun. Being a parent to two little ones helps remind me that sometimes it’s the easiest set ups and most basic things that make a lasting impression on my children’s hearts. It’s like the whole “give them a toy and they’ll play with the box it came in” mentality! A sprinkler, beach ball, rainbow beach towels, a game of paddle ball and some popsicles is the ticket to a magical afternoon in your own backyard. Check out this fun set up below featuring products from World Market plus my tips for backyard fun!
Tip 1 Backyard games like corn hole and paddle ball are classics that folks of all ages can enjoy! I love how this inflatable corn hole game is easy to travel with and take to the beach or park. And these paddle balls come in adorable unicorn and dinosaur styles.
TIP 2 Music is key for setting the mood! I love creating a fun playlist for each occasion with a mix of tunes from country to old school rock. This travel speaker is adorable for bringing on the go!
TIP 3 Creating a DIY popsicle bar is super easy and fun! Just fill a galvanized tub with ice and top with your favorite popsicles and ice cream treats.
TIP 4 Don’t stress about not having enough outdoor furniture. Use a few lounge chairs or beach towels for seating.
TIP 5 Adding a sprinkler or bubble machine creates just the right environment for hot weather fun! Place items apart from each other to create little stations or zones so several guests can enjoy at the same time.
