During July and August, the most commonly discussed topic at home is vacation.
For many families, going to the beach to relax is the preferred choice. But to only enjoy the sea breeze and splash in the water would be a pity! Playing and having fun is an essential aspects of our nature, and doing so at the beach can create wonderful memories for the whole family.
Here are some fun games that you can try:
1. Flag Grabbing Game:
Two participants stand on one side of the beach with their backs to everyone else. A flag is placed at a distance, and the objective is to grab the flag before the other player does. Once a command is given, both players must quickly turn around and race to grab the flag. The fastest player wins, and the loser is punished. As the game progresses, the flag can be hidden in inconspicuous places to increase the difficulty level.
2. Beach Melee Play:
In this game, all participants must move in a specific way that is not their normal way of walking. Before the game starts, participants draw lots to determine their mode of movement (such as single-legged jump, rabbit jump, four-legged sprint, walking backward, etc.).
All players have 5 life points, and one player is designated as the ghost, while the others are people. The ghost wears a hat, and once the game begins, the ghost tries to catch the people. If a person is touched by the ghost, they enter a state of death. A teammate can save a dead person by touching them. The game lasts for three minutes, and if all the people enter the death state, the ghost wins, and everyone else loses one life point. Otherwise, the roles are reversed after three minutes.
If the others remove the ghost's hat within the time limit, the ghost loses three life points, while the others lose one life point if the ghost wins. The ghost is re-selected by rock-paper-scissors after each round. The game continues until the first person runs out of life points and receives a penalty.
3. Impromptu Storytelling Game:
Participants first discuss an interesting topic. They then sit in a row and select a judge. The judge designates a person to start telling a story, and in the process of telling, randomly designates another person who must immediately respond and continue the story while staying true to the previous setting. The person who tells an incorrect story is the loser and must receive a punishment. The judge then designates the next person to continue the story from where the previous person left off.
4. Guess the Answer with Water:
Two participants (A/B) form a team for this game. The others provide a question and tell the answer to Player A. Player A must then tilt their head back with water in their mouth and gargle before telling the question to Player B. Player B is responsible for guessing the answer, and if they guess incorrectly, the team loses, and the loser is drenched with seawater.
