Walk the Plank

A Thrilling Pirate-Themed Game

How to Play:

Game Setup:

  • Fill the toddler’s pool with water and add plastic crocodiles or similar floating objects to create a fun obstacle.
  • Place a sturdy plank across the pool, ensuring it’s secure and safe for children to walk on.

Gameplay:

  • Children take turns walking across the plank from one side of the pool to the other, one at a time.
  • The objective is to maintain balance and reach the other side without falling into the water.

Elimination:

  • Anyone who loses their balance and falls into the pool is out of the game.
  • The last child remaining on the plank wins!
