Taking the children with you on your trip to Avoca Beach requires that you have a lot of beach activities such as beach games for kids prepared. After all, the waves and the surf will keep your little ones busy only for so long. By having a couple of beach games for kids ready, you and the whole family will be able to have hours of fun at the beach. Located by the beach, Avoca Palms know a thing or two about the best beach games for kids!
Building Sand Castles & Sculptures
Okay, so this idea might be a bit old. However, you really can’t deny that making sandcastles is a lot of fun. You can bring a pail and some other child sand sculpting tools, such as a small shovel, or you can also choose to make sand sculptures using only your hand. This is good for a couple of hours of fun. If you get tired digging in the sand, you can ask your children to bury you (with your head above the sand, of course) and build a sculpture on top of you.
Water Balloon Catch
The object of this game is to successfully catch the water balloon (this means you shouldn’t deliberately pop the balloon). This will need a little preparation on your part. And since you and your children will be in your bathing suits, and will most likely be wet already, this game will be very fun – especially when the water balloons burst in your hands.
Kite Flying
Open area. Fantastic wind. Clear Skies. Now all you need is a kite and you’re set. Probably the only “non-game” which makes the list of best beach games for kids, flying a kit with your child can be very enjoyable. And since you might not be able to fly one in the crowded streets and busy skyline of the city, doing so on the beach will be a very welcome chance even for you. So make sure you pack a sturdy kite with you when you travel to Central Coast.
Beach Mini Golf
Want to slow down a bit but still have fun. Why not do something that you might like as well. The beach mini golf game is great for playing a “slower” paced game with your children. Not only is this welcome when you need to catch your breath after all the running around and catching water balloons, but it’s also a game that you might actually enjoy. You will have to dig a couple of holes though.
More Beach Games for Kids
Aside from these games, there are other activities that you and the whole family can do, such as: collecting seashells and pebbles, treasure hunt, build a sandman or a mermaid, or play with a Frisbee. Have hours of fun under the sun and bond with the whole family with these great games for kids.
Or, if you are looking for your kids to have an educational experience while enjoying the sun, giving you some downtime, why not enrol them in a central coast summer surf school.
