Musical Dress Up – Let your reunions organize this one. Fill a black garbage bag with weird stuff (a mask, a green colored wig, a moustache…). Play musical chairs and pass the bag. When the music stops the person left holding the bag grabs something to wear from the bag (without looking in). The game continues until the bag is empty... and everyone looks silly. Take group pictures for posterity!

 

Water Balloons – Make water balloons. Break up families into two teams. The teams stand a distance from each other and toss water balloons back and forth. The person who pops a balloon is out. Another water balloon is given to that team. Teams keep going until only one is left.. and everyone is wet ! this game is best played outdoors.

Always remember, the secret to enjoyable family reunions is not only great food but also lots of fun, action, and the very important family bonding.
