Splat

One at a time players must race down and try to pop one water balloon before running back and tagging their next team mate. The team who pops all of their balloons first will win. To make this more challenging, players are not allowed to use their hands or feet to pop the balloons.
Fill your bucket
You can play this game individually or in teams. Fill up plenty of water balloons and scatter over the yard. Give each person (or team) an empty container. Players must try to fill their container with water from the water balloons as quickly as possible. To do this, they need to find a water balloon and pop it, emptying the water into their container and continue doing this until their container is full or the time has run out. Players can only carry one water balloon at a time.

This is a great game for large groups. One person is “it” and has to tag other players with their water balloon. The more people you have playing, the more challenging this game becomes.
