DIY Backyard Obstacle Course

Obstacle courses are always a big hit. It is not as complicated to build your own backyard obstacle course as many imagine. An obstacle course is simply a series of fun task, challenges, or mini games that the children try and rush through as fast as they can. They are usually set up so that as soon as you finish one task you move directly to the next until you reach the finish line.

You’ll need to come up with some creative obstacles for the kids, you can get as simple or as complicated as you want with these course ideas. You can use objects that you already have around your house for many obstacles. Here are some examples:

Set up old tires on their side for them to crawl through, or lay them on the ground for the kids to run through. Don’t have old tires, check out these inflatable Tires
Hang a hula hoop from a tree and the kids must throw a football through it before they can move on.
Have a pile of balloons ready, the children must pop one by sitting on it to move on.
Set up a table and hang streamers, balloons, even pool noodles from underneath. The children must crawl under it to get to the other side.
Lay out a 2x4 piece of plywood on the ground. Have the children walk across it without touching the ground, for older children they must walk across it backwards.
Have the kids crabwalk from one section to another.
Have the kids jump in a potato sack from one section of the course to another.

Treasure Scramble

In this outdoor game the kids must try to collect as treasure rocks as they can and race them back to their base. The treasure rocks can be created by wrapping candy and small prizes in aluminum foil. Beware though; when collecting treasure rocks the children must watch out for the Dragon who guard the treasure. If the dragon tags a child they must drop any treasure rocks they have and run back to their base. When all the rocks have been collected the children can open them up and share the prizes inside.

Have the Dragon stand in the middle of the yard surrounded by the treasure rocks. The little explorers wait on either side until the word GO. Have a basket or bucket on each side to represent their base.

ABC Scavenger Hunt

This game is simple and fun. Divide kids into teams. Provide each team a bag to collect their items in. Put 20 minutes on the clock and let the teams race to find items that begin with each letter of the alphabet.

RULES: Only one item for each letter counts, for example only one item found for the letter A counts as a point. The other rule is that an item can only be used to represent one letter, for example a spoon can either count for the letter S, or for the letter U for utensil – not both.

Another option for older children is to provide the team with a digital camera so that they can take pictures of items that they can’t fit in their bag or would be inappropriate to take. The team that collects the most items wins.
