Fave outdoor games for preschoolers
I'd like to pick up some outdoor games for my dd, who will be 4.5 this summer. She has some gross motor delays, so I want to keep her skills up. I'm thinking things like beanbag toss, Velcro mitts, golf set, stuff like that. Do your dcs have any favorites? Can you recommend specific brands? Tia!

My 5yo is in a similar boat with motor delays. E have a small swing set which is definitely great for her. Smaller things she likes would be any kind of ball, jump rope, hula hoops, a game similar to the Velcro mitts but it's a suction cup ball, she loves cornhole too. We have a wagon she likes dragging around.
Sometimes I give her a spray bottle of water and she sprays everything in the yard. She loves it and it's good for fine motor strength. Also an empty dish soap bottle in her water table to practice squeezing.
If you have a place to draw hopscotch that's a great one too.
Inside we have a little tikes slide and trampoline too which I sometimes consider moving outside.

We have ride on toys (trike, boat), chalk, gardening tools (yes, they all help me garden), and water table and toys. Have a ton of different balls.

Re: Fave outdoor games for preschoolers
Yay! I ordered from Amazon some beanbags, a hopscotch puzzle thing (our walkway is too narrow and curved to do with chalk), some of those rubber round spots, Velcro mitts, and tee-ball set. I will get a bowling set and maybe croquet in a few weeks . Thanks everyone! I can't wait to play!
ETA: we already have some ride on toys, slide, water table, and gardening stuff, so I think these more "game" oriented additions will round it out!
