Must-Have Outdoor Toys for Summer

Sandbox

Sandboxes are one the oldest and best activities for sensory play. Think about it- what childhood doesn’t involve a sandbox? While I just had some sand in a homemade box made of 2×4’s, Amazon has taken the sandbox into the 21st century with this awesome outdoor activity!

If you plan on having your kids play outside all day long, this is the perfect addition to your backyard to keep them entertained for hours! Pretty neat, right? 

 

Beyond Outdoors Giant Connect 4

For the most entertaining outdoor activity, this giant Connect 4 game is an excellent purchase from Amazon. For years to come, your family will beg you to pull out this game to play all afternoon long no matter their age. 

 

Slip N’ Slide

Remember how much fun slip n’ slides were when you were a kid? Well, I have news for you- it’s still true. Slip n’ slides are one of the most fun things that you can get for your yard. This rainbow slip n’ slide is no exception. Hook it up with the hose and watch as the kids (and maybe a few grownups) have fun all afternoon. 

 

Big Bubbles Kit

This kit is just so awesome that I couldn’t leave it off of the list! This big bubbles kit makes gigantic bubbles and is one of the most fun ways to spend the afternoon. 

Imagine, the kids are playing in the pool and you decide to set this up. You begin blowing giant bubbles over their heads as they are playing and it becomes one of their favorite memories. 

This is what outside memories are made of.

 

Toy Foam Rocket Launcher

I love these rocket launchers. The toy is made with great quality so that the rocket shoots up to 100 feet in the air. It is awesome and you could totally put in a homeschool lesson in there about all of the science that goes into it. 

But my favorite part about this toy? The rocket launches by having someone stomping on the pedal, making it completely air-powered. That means it doesn’t require any batteries, which means the kids can just set up and play!

 

Geometric Dome Climber

This geometric dome climber helps kids burn off every last ounce of energy they have. They will climb, twist, and turn on this sturdy toy for hours while they make up game after game. It’s awesome!
