Human Ring Toss

If Dad is a swimmer, chances are he might want to spend Father's Day by the water. A simple, fun game you can do by the pool or at the beach is a human ring toss! The game is exactly as it sounds: Have a few people line up, mark a throwing line, and see who can toss the most blowup rings around them!

Puzzle Race

Divide up the families at your celebration into three groups (make sure there is at least one adult in each). Set a timer for 15 to 20 minutes, and see which team can put together the most complete puzzle! This set contains three different 300-piece puzzles, so you can rotate sets if teams want to go for round two!

Don't worry about the little ones—there's no tackling allowed in flag football! A lively flag football game is perfect for a large family or friend gathering and a great way to get everyone's blood pumping.

Cornhole

Cornhole is always fun for the whole family! Take a cue from this DIY tutorial and decorate your own boards with inside jokes or favorite family memories about your dad.
