Wonderful Croquet


I love a good old fashioned croquet set. Not only is is a fun backyard game in the summer, with a little creativity it can be even more! My brother-in-law took a set with us camping and we played a game of "mountain croquet". The traditional game was made more interesting when trying to navigate brush, trees, rocks, and holes. A croquet set can also be used in a homemade version of mini-golf. Use old plastic cups as the holes and bits of paper (or other markers) to show the starting positions. Then, using a croquet mallet and a golf ball (or other small ball), have everyone try to run the mini-golf course that the family has created.
