Marco Polo

Marco Polo is the ideal summer-time game, in fact, perfect for KwaZulu-Natal’s year-round warm weather! Simply understood as a form of tag in a swimming pool, the game is easy to play and enjoyable with more than 2 people. Jump into the pool and choose a person to be “It”. This person would need to close their eyes as the other players disperse in the pool. Once ready, the player who is “it” shouts “Marco” and all other players shout “Polo” at the same time. The goal is to swim around with closed eyes and tag another person resulting in them becoming the new “it”. Not only is it a great family game, but it is also a great workout in the water.

Scrabble

If you’re looking for an indoor game to play with family on rainy days, Scrabble is an entertaining option. The game requires at least 2 people to receive 10 random letter tiles at a time which will be used on a board to build words. These words will award you with points that you keep track of and in the end, the individual with the most points, wins the game.  Popular across the world as it can be enjoyed in all languages, the game helps with vocabulary and mathematical skills for kids. As an adult, you’ll be surprised as you challenge your own vocabulary!
