Book Review

 

There were tons of great outdoor games to play with the kids in this book.  Many of which, I remember playing as a kid.  Plus there were quite a number that I had never heard of before.

This book is a great way to get the kids active and moving around.  So next time your kids are saying that they are bored, you just need to reach for this book and give them some great suggestions.
