It’s that time of the year again where the sun creams out and the constant irritation of bugs flying around your face is enough to push you slightly on that crazy side of life.
Recently us brits were hit with a 34.5-degree heatwave that left some of us face down on the floor in discomfort but never the less most of us came prepared and embraced the spell of hot weather we were dealt.
Summer is all about getting out and making the most of the short supply of hot weather were served in the UK each year, there’s also the spending time with family aspect that many of us either don’t do enough of or take for granted.
Outdoor Games Tables
If you’re looking to re-invent your childhood and cast your mind back to the 70-80s era of retro games an outdoor pool table just might be your jam this summer. There are many outdoor games tables available on the market with all different dimensions and sizes so there’s no need to worry about fitting it in that tight gap, there is method in every moment of madness.
If you have suddenly been inspired and can’t resist the urge to explore some outdoor gaming tables to either have on your outside patio or maybe even in your conservatory then it’s time to do some shopping.
Outdoor Swimming Pools & Water Accessories
But it doesn’t just stop at outdoor pool tables there’s loads of summer garden accessories that is sure to keep the kids entertained as well as us adults. What serves better than submerging yourself into a pool of cold water when the weather is hot? Nothing. So, stop the fooling around and complaining it’s too hot and get the garden pool out. You will be surprised how many activities you can accommodate into something as simple as an outside pool, maybe even some 2v2 volleyball to get your summer groove on?
If you’re a parent with younger children and think a pool isn’t the safest option don’t worry we have got you covered. Create some fierce sibling rivalry and get the water guns out, if that’s not enough then add a slip slide into the mix to slide down whilst continuously socking all your family members to assert your dominance of who’s boss?
Need Something to Throw?
To have fun this summer you don’t have to splash the cash and have a bottomless pit of money, you can keep the whole family entertained by simply taking the dogs for a walk with a frisbee. Going to the local park and make a proper day out of it, ideal for families with young kids and just before pay day you can’t go wrong. It may not seem the most exiting activity you could be doing but one things for sure it does wonders for your fitness.
If you’re looking for a summer activity with a bit of weight behind it so you can give it a good swing of the arm then a Nerf Howler is your best option. This is basically a combination of an American football and a dart that whistles as it flies through the air as the name doesn’t exactly give too much away.
Summer games has many surprising benefits that maybe don’t seem that obvious at first but more and more families are less inclined to go out as a family and spend the day in each other’s company because of the advance in technology such as phones, gaming consoles and all that jazz.
Simple as these activities may seem they really do make a difference and allow you to form a stronger bond as a family, also its quite an entertaining, less painful way of keeping yourself fit as opposed to going to the gym 3-4 times a week lifting weights or on a treadmill.
If you have a budget and looking to treat your kids to something special and that will entertain the whole family can enjoy then a games table would be your best option but if you’re simply trying to find things to do to go out as a family and keep the kids entertained then it’s as simple as going to the local park with a frisbee or a Nerf Howler to spark a family day out. Regardless of budget what matters is who you spend the time with not the activity you decide to do.
