Make oversized jenga10/3/2023 I have only one problem with the dartboard….when we suck at the game and can’t even aim to the board the wall or door gets damaged by the darts. But there is a cool and safe dart set for kids too! I think darts are the perfect picnic games for adults. BUT if you know small children will like to try playing with dice make them from foam. If you choose to make these dices from wood I would say it is more of a backyard activity for adults. This project is a little more advanced than the others in this post, but if you are already a hardcore DIYer you can get theme ideas from Pinterest and create some cornhole board sets to your friends too.ĭice and yardzee are fun and easy to make. Not only the cornhole board you can DIY but the bean bags as well. There are also many ideas on Pinterest for painting themes. Anyhow, it is soo much fun and seems like the perfect lawn game idea for any age. You tell me…is it really an American tradition, cause I didn’t know it exists until I got to the States. This popular game was an entirely new thing for me. Via: /tic-tac-toe-stone-bees-ladies-birds/ Just create the “board” in your garden with branches. Here is another cute idea if you don’t have a wood stump or tic tac toe board. You can also get creative with the paint and make some cool designs on the rocks. Then you only need two different colors of paint, which probably you have somewhere in your garage. If you are not a rock collector like us □ pick up some nice flat rocks at your next walkabout. If not you can go to the closest lumber and ask for a slice. Probably you or your neighbors cut a tree recently, and you can have a slice for free. I love to work with sliced wood, and it’s a cheap option to use as the tic tac toe table. You can make this completely free! Here is how: My absolute favorite is Alecia’s giant tic tac toe set. When I make our wooden dominoes, I will use a dark wood stain and white wood paint for the dots.ĭo you know what I was thinking? If you have kids, probably you don’t want them to play with large wood pieces and have an accident.īUT, you can buy a giant foam dominoes set… or make one from repurposed upholstery foam from a previous cushion project. Instead of using 2x3x8 lumbers you can buy a 2×10 piece lumber and cut in every 16 inches. Plus it looks as easy to make as the giant Jenga. Therefore I love this giant domino DIY project. There is absolutely no waaaay you don’t have a set of domino when you organize a backyard BBQ party. Since we live in Puerto Rico dominos are the most loved (for outsiders probably the most overused) game. If you have small kids and want to show them how to play, but avoid accidents, make giant Jenga from foam. I didn’t even think I ever want to DIY a giant Jenga set, BUT, it’s the perfect yard game to play outside while you throw something on the BBQ with your friends. Now, lawn Jenga DY is one of the easiest backyard projects of all time. You can even color-coded with different color pipes. My other favorite idea is to make the ladders from PVC pipes. If you like DIY projects and you have leftover wood at home you might want to build a wooden ladder golf game for your backyard. Our friend bought this ladder toss game on Amazon, but out of curiosity I researched how we can make one, and there are a lot of DIY ideas around the net.
