\nDuring the heat of July, there’s no better relief than jumping into the pool. The pool is an even better sanctuary when your friends and family members join you for various games. The following are the best options for pool-based fun:<\/p>\n
THE 4 BEST GAMES TO PLAY IN THE POOL<\/h2>\nMARCO POLO<\/h2>\n
A classic pool game, Marco Polo begins with one person being designated as ‘it.’ With eyes shut, that person attempts to find the other players. He or she can locate them via sound — whenever the “it” person calls “Marco,” everybody else must respond, “Polo.”<\/p>\n
FREEZE TAG<\/h2>\n
The pool-based version of freeze tag is sometimes referred to as popsicle tag. When the “it” player tags somebody, that person must stand completely still with arms stretched towards the sky — a little like a popsicle. Players cannot be tagged while underwater, so the “it” person needs to keep an eye out for those who come up for air.<\/p>\n
DOLPHIN RACES<\/h2>\n
Simple but fun, dolphin races involve swimming as far as possible underwater without coming up for air. Whoever swims the furthest without taking a breath wins! A versatile game, it can be played alone or with friends. While alone, it’s best done as a personal challenge, with the swimmer trying to outdo him or herself each time.<\/p>\n
WHITE WHALE<\/h2>\n
Another enjoyable version of tag in the pool, white whale begins with one player floating on his or her back. The other players surround the ‘white whale’ waiting for it to strike. At any moment, the white whale can call, “Hungry whale!” and begin chasing the others. The person tagged first becomes the new white whale. If the whale struggles to catch anybody, he or she can resume floating in the middle of the pool.<\/p>\n
