Outdoor Fun & Games
You can't beat playing outdoors in the fresh air. After being cooped up inside through the rain, sleet and snow, finally being able to feel the grass beneath your feet feels absolutely wonderful! This summer, how about encouraging the whole family to get outside with some super outdoor fun and games? Findmeagift.com has got a fabulous range of outdoor toys and garden games for all the family to enjoy. http://www.find-me-a-gift.co.uk/outdoor-toys/
How about inviting family and friends around for a barbeque and a game of Boules? The Garden Boules Set is perfect for summery afternoons. This stylish Boules Set comprises of 8 polished alloy boules, a wooden jack and a measure. This classic French garden game can be played with 2 players or in teams. The rules are simple, just place the wooden jack on the ground and then take turns in bowling your boules at the jack. After all the boules have been bowled, the player nearest the jack wins! This entertaining Garden Boules Set comes presented in a smart metal carry case, making it easy to transport around. So you could pack a picnic, head for ...
... the park and take this great Garden Boules Game with you. You can play it on the beach or you can simply carry it round to your mates for a fun game!
What about taking a tabletop game that you usually play indoors, but enlarging it to make it an even greater garden game? The Big 4 Giant Garden Game has done exactly that! The Big 4 Garden Game is a super sized game similar to Connect 4. This hugely enjoyable oversized outdoor toy measures approximately 120 cm x 120 cm x 13 cm, so it won't fit on top of your outside table! This terrific Big 4 Giant Garden Game is ideal for playing on patios, backyards and on the lawn.
The Big 4 Giant Garden Game consists of a beautiful treated wood frame and 42 plastic counters (21 red and 21 yellow). The aim of the game is to be the first to get 4 coloured counters in a row. If you thought you had fun playing a tabletop version, then wait until you get your hands around this Big 4 Giant Garden Game. Stood outside your home, this game will make your garden look like something out of Alice in Wonderland. The counters alone will have you believing that spending too long soaking in the bath tub, really does make you shrink! This impressive outdoor toy can be played by all ages, which makes it a superb garden game for all the family.
Fancy some outdoors aviation amusement? Have you ever wanted to fly your own plane (toy plane that is) but have never bothered because you know that within 5 minutes you'll probably take a nosedive? Well, sling a flying jacket over your shoulder, wrap a white scarf around your neck and slip on your aviators because The Amazing Virtually Indestructible R/C Plane is waiting for you on the findmeagift.com runway! Yes you can take off to the skies safe in the knowledge that this awesome plane can withstand most innocent crash landings! This is because unlike most toy planes, the Amazing Virtually Indestructible R/C Plane uses shape memory plastic in the fuselage and wings. This means that it always returns to its original shape, even when it's been bent out of shape. This super-fly R/C Plane comes with a handheld radio control unit, rechargeable batteries and a battery charger, as well as instructions and a flying guide. With a remarkable wingspan of 55cm you'll soon have this neat R/C Plane performing loop the loops and other exciting manoeuvres. Just remember, that this plane is virtually indestructible, not 'totally' indestructible. Therefore it may not survive too many daredevil stunts involving flying through flames or seeing how many times you can crash at speed into the oak tree or neighbour's wall!
If you're holidaying at home this summer, why not bring some of the beach to your backyard with the Hexagonal Wooden Sandpit? Made of treated wood this fantastic Hexagonal Sandpit comes with a textile underlay and a protective cover, so all you have to do is fill it with sand. Kids will love playing in this sandbox, building sandcastles and digging tunnels. In fact, adults will want to jump in on the fun too! Measuring a generous 1.5m across, this sandbox will happily accommodate a couple of grownups. These splendid Wooden Sandpits make marvellous outdoor toys and can be used to create a whole host of garden games. You could hold a summer treasure hunt and bury treasure in the Sandpit or have a sandcastle building competition. Or you could simply just sit in your wonderful Wooden Sandpit with a cool beer or a jug of Pimms and pretend that you have been washed up on some desert island for the day!
With the sun shining in the sky it's time to get outside for some much needed fresh air. So why not fill your summer with some outstanding outdoor toys from findmeagift.com and invite family and friends round to play a few glorious garden games! http://www.find-me-a-gift.co.uk/outdoor-toys/garden-games.html
