Wacky Lawn Croquet A fun outdoor game for kids! Leave the proper croquet games to the adults... this game will keep your kids giggling all summer! A unique addition to outdoor birthday parties, barbeques or any gathering.  You'll need: lawn care stakes or garden stakes permanent markers in a variety of colors croquet mallets and balls or lawn bowling balls Using the permanent markers, create your playing stakes by writing instructions such as, "HOP", "SING", "DANCE", "CARTWHEEL", "YODEL" etc. Kids can have fun adding dots, stripes flowers etc. How To Play: Place the stakes into the ground with plenty of distance in between stakes. Designate one stake for the start and one for the finish. Use lawn bowling, croquet, or other heavy balls to play. Each child will have their own ball. The children will hit, or roll their balls from one stake to another, attempting to touch or get very near the stake in one roll. Only one roll per turn. When they do get their ball near the stake, it's time to perform the task... hop, jump, skip, sing.... Variation: you can also use the entire croquet set and placing the garden stakes near the wickets, or wood stakes. Let your kids adapt the rules to see what imaginative new game they create!
