There's no need to leave your property. You can set up a tent in the backyard - heck, you can even do it in the living room! 

Remember this nostalgia-tinged activity from when you were little? Pass on the timeless game to your kids and their friends now that you're older. 

While having an outdoor fire would be ideal for this activity, you can achieve a similar effect by using the stove and then eating your creation outside. The person who makes the

best treat gets a prize - a second helping, maybe?

Kids young and old will enjoy this activity. This activity is a fun fantasy come to life for elementary age children and a nostalgic throw back to your teenagers, or even yourself! Break

out the chalk and create at-home hopscotch and four square play areas. 

You can get the whole neighborhood in on this one. Pass out clues and watch the fun unfold as people try to figure out where the hidden treasure is. Make the

clues as hard or as easy as you want. You can have the fun go on for days if your family is having too much fun. 

Set up a game of (safe and family friendly) truth or dare where the the kids have to go diving for their prompts.

Add a little bit of flair to your home by having the kids paint a mural. You may want to give the okay on the design first before they get started though. 

It might be a bit of a no brainer, but you can always throw a backyard BBQ. Change things up by offering some unique entrees and drinks. Maybe set a

tropical or a Tex-Mex theme. 

Kick your classic backyard BBQ into overdrive with this friendly competition. The whole family can experiment with different toppings to try and find the perfect burger and topping combo. Mix these

burgers with the s'mores night and you've got yourself an amazing and fun meal.

Park the car in the driveway, close up the garage, find yourself a projector, and take your family to the movies, all without leaving home.
