Quick Explanation
A fast-paced, wet twist on Connect 4 where players slide down a slip & slide, grab a game piece, and race to drop it into a giant Connect 4 board. First team to connect four wins!
Supplies Needed
- Slip & slide (long enough for a good run-up)
- Giant Connect 4 game (or DIY version)
- Plastic rings or discs (2 different colors for teams)
- Water source (hose/sprinkler to keep slide wet)
- Cones or markers for start line
- Towels (optional but appreciated)
How to Play
- Divide players into two teams. Each team gets a color of rings.
- Set the giant Connect 4 board at the end of the slip & slide.
- Players line up at the start.
- One player from each team goes at a time:
- Run → slide → grab a ring → place it in the board
- After placing their piece, they run back and tag the next teammate.
- Teams continue rotating players until someone connects four in a row (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal).
Rules
- Only one player per team can go at a time
- Players must slide (no running around the slide!)
- If a player misses the board or drops the piece, they must fix it before tagging the next person
- No blocking or interfering with the other team
- First team to connect four wins the round
