Father’s Day is just around the corner, and finding the perfect gift can sometimes be a challenge. If your dad loves spending time outdoors, what better way to show your appreciation than with a fun and engaging backyard game? Here’s a curated list of some top-notch backyard games that will make this Father’s Day unforgettable. All these games are sure to provide hours of entertainment and foster some friendly competition.

  1. Scatter – This is one of our most recent backyard game reviews! Currently listed at $40, this game is a fantastic addition to any backyard game collection. Its blend of skill and strategy, coupled with its easy setup and portability, makes it an ideal choice for outdoor gatherings. If the men in your life have enjoyed horseshoes, Kubb, or other similar games, Scatter could be a great option for them this Father’s Day.
  2. Glow in the Dark Bocce Ball – I don’t think we will ever NOT recommend this game. The 4 color option is currently listed for $67. This isn’t a regular bocce ball set, it’s cool bocce ball set you can pull out after the sun goes down and continue your fun for hours. Everyone asks about this game when we play in public places, and we have yet to have anyone who has purchased give us any negative feedback. It’s a winner for sure!
  3. Pickleball Paddles – Pickleball popularity has continued to surge across the United States. These paddles are a great option for a little bit of a nicer entry-level set of paddles. Pickleball is a great option to get outdoors and not have to pay each time you play. Only have 3 players to play with at the moment? One of our most popular posts to date is unique variations of playing pickleball with odd numbers.
  4. Cornhole – Cornhole has definitely made a comeback in the past few years. Every guy should have a cornhole set to bust out while grilling and smoking their favorite meat! This is a decent set that’s going for $135 on Amazon.
  5. Shaka Ball – Need a good beach game? Shaka Ball is a great option! Currently selling for $80, it’s a durable game that has turned heads at many beaches we have played at. There’s a bit of a pickleball vibe to the game as well if you are looking for a game for pickleball lovers!
