Spending time in the hot tub with your family is not only relaxing, it can also be a lot of fun! Below are seven great games to play in a hot tub that all ages are sure to enjoy. Let local hot tub dealer Blue Lagoon Spas and Swim Spas bring the fun to your backyard.
1. Submarine
You’ll need two plastic cups to play this game. Begin by placing one of the cups in the water, filling it with enough water so that it remains upright. Pass the other cup around the hot tub. Have each person take their turn filling a bit of water in the main cup without sinking it. The first person to sink the cup loses, and the game is repeated until only one person is left.
2. Waterproof Games and Playing Cards
Purchase a set of waterproof playing cards or waterproof UNO and bring game night to your hot tub. Use a floating mat or tray to enjoy games of poker, gin rummy, go fish and more. You can also purchase a floating game board to play games like checkers, chess and backgammon. Your local hot tub dealer may carry some of these games.
3. Battle Ducks
Kids will love this game played with two floating rubber duckies. Split the hot tub into two teams, each taking a duck. The object is to make your duck touch one of the opposing team’s players before it touches one of your players. Place the duck in the water and using only water, jets and air, aim your duck at the other team.
4. Ping Pong Outbreak
Begin with up to five ping pong balls in the hot tub. The object is to avoid being touched by any of the balls. Players may move around to avoid being touched, but their feet must stay on the bottom. If a ball touches a player, they must get out of the hot tub. To add a twist, throw in another ball each time a player gets out.
5. Pass the Bottle
All you need for this one is a filled plastic water bottle. The object is to pass the bottle all the way around the hot tub without using your hands. Use body parts like your neck, armpit, elbows or knees. The person who drops the bottle is out, and the game restarts.
6. Cold Shower
Fill a balloon with ice water, making it as full as possible without it breaking. Have all players sit around the edge of the hot tub. Begin passing the balloon around, with each player pausing to hold it above their head for five seconds. The balloon will pop at some point, giving the losing player a cold shower.
7. Rubber Duck Races
You can use rubber ducks or anything that floats for this game. The object is for each player or team to get their duck to the other side first. You can push, blow or splash—just don’t use your hands.
