The kids recently fell in love with petanque, which is basically a French version of bocce ball. Except my kids make their own rules up, and then spend most of our play time explaining the game to me haha. Still it's a lot of fun, and I think I'm gonna buy a petanque set of my own since the kids love it so much. Petanque is really popular where we live, so I'm sure we'd get a lot of use out of it!

I love playing games outdoors with the kids, since they usually play most of their games on the iPhone. Do you have any fun outdoor games that you play with the kids?
