Creating new games

There are unlimited possibilities. Here are a few starting places for creating new games:
  • Silent games. A normal game but it must be played without talking.
  • Volleyball variations. A volleyball and net lend themselves to a wide range of ideas. Try changing the ball being used or the net being used or both. (My favorite is to blow up a garbage bag and use it for volleyball)
  • Games in the dark
  • Take a non-game object or piece of junk and think about what can be done with it. (see Brite-Tites as an example of what can be done when creative thinking is applied to an unexpected object).
  • Utilize your space. What can be done with the room - can it be made dark? is there a good "base" or "jail"? is it varied enough for good guessing games? are there object that can be turned into games?
  • Water games – take a normal game and play it in the water
