Who needs to go away on vacation when you have a swimming pool in
your own backyard? Pcpools.com wants to help maximize the enjoyment
you get from your pool by providing you with new and innovative
ideas.
Games "Cool"
Surfboards - Fill a large cake pan with approximately 3" of
water and place in freezer. Remove when frozen and use the ice as a
surfboard to cool you off on a hot summer day.
Suntan Tattoos - Cut out fun shapes
a butterfly, heart, flower from contact paper and apply
to skin. Your skin will tan everywhere except where your tattoo
sticker is, creating a tattoo! Don't forget the sunscreen so you
don't burn!
Treasure Hunt - Fill large clean
plastic soda bottles with water. Insert a small trinket or prize and
screw plastic cap on tightly. Toss the bottles into the pool where
they will sink to the bottom. Swimmers can now dive in and search
for the treasures!
Sailboat Races - Have players create
their own boats using Styrofoam egg cartons, cardboard, straws and
other materials. Hold a regatta and race the boats across the pool
to see who is the best builder.
Refreshments To keep insects off
your food, place large screen type strainers upside down over your
serving dishes.
Make "ice bowls" to keep food cold by simply freezing water
inside a large bowl and placing a small bowl inside the larger bowl.
Use ice bowl to serve sliced fruit, shrimp or anything you want to
keep cold.
Create an exotic atmosphere by serving drinks in hollowed
pineapples or coconuts.
