12 Australia Day Games for kids

12 Australia Day Games for Kids
Are you looking for some Australia Day games ideas? We’ve put together a list of our favourite Australia Day games to play with kids…..but really when it comes down to it you can Aussie up any of your kids favourites.
To make children more engaged in the games and more memorable, you can use Custom Coins as game rewards.
When customising coins, you can use different game ideas for patterns, award names, or challenge goals for a personalised design. When you play Australia Day games with children, they may receive a unique custom challenge coin by passing a level or advancing in the game, which may make the whole activity exciting.

PLAY THE CHOCOLATE GAME
Grab a block of chocolate, a plate, knife, fork, dice and some aussie dress up’s like an apron, hat and thongs. The person in has to first dress up and then use the knife and fork to eat the chocolate. Whoever rolls the next 6 on the dice is next in, quickly get dressed and start eating!

SLIP AND SLIDE
Get your kids outside connect the hose to the sprinkler and start slippin and sliding in the back yard.

HAVE A GAME OF BEACH OR BACKYARD CRICKET
Set up your stumps and cricket pitch. A bin or chair will do if you don't have the real thing. Over the fence or in the water is out.......we usually let the younger kids have 4 hits before it's the next persons turn.

GO ON AN AUSSIE SCAVENGER HUNT
Send the kids out into the back yard with a list of Aussie things to collect.

LAMINGTON EATING COMPETITION
Place a lamington on a plate in front of each person, everyone puts their hands behind their backs, and when you shout ‘go!’ whoever can eat their lamington first without using their hands is named victorious.

GET MOVING WITH SOME SACK OR 3 LEGGED RACES
Use old pillow cases as sacks or to tie your legs together, each child jumps or runs their way over the finish line. You can make the track harder for adults by adding obstacles.

AUSSIE DAY QUIZ
Choose someone to be the Trivia Master and compete as teams or individually to answer the most answers correctly with our Australia Day quiz here.
HAVE A GAME OF CARDS
Our WBK's love a game of cards in the shade when it gets too hot to run around and play. If you’re looking for ways to teach your kids good financial habits through fun, see this page on pocket money. We love fish and snap, especially after lunch or before nap time. We found these giant cards at Kmart.
