When you're a kid, summertime stretches before you like a vast plane of possibility. Long days await, ready to be filled with excitement and discovery--and games, of course! Whether you feel like playing croquet, Frisbee golf, hide-and-seek, or staging a treasure hunt--or maybe just a quick game of crazy eights--this book has all the rules for over 150 games and activities, many summers' worth of entertainment. The collection is divided into sections such as "Land Action" (croquet, badminton, capture the flag); "Just for One or Two" (juggling, card tricks, double solitaire, marbles); "Indoor Games" (charades, dominoes, hearts); "Games to Make" (comet ball, pickup sticks, homestyle bingo); "Waterfront" (water safety's no game, beach games); and "Warm Weather Olympics" (Olympic planning, beach biathlon, land challenges).
