Beat the heat as you celebrate the July 4th holiday in your outdoor space. As you prepare for your holiday pool party, don’t forget the importance of regular application of sunscreen and staying well-hydrated during your outdoor activities.
While preparing for your pool party, the first step is deciding what food to serve. A great option is to barbecue poolside. You can grill a variety of foods including hamburgers, hot dogs, vegetable skewers, and chicken. You can also have a potluck strategy for the sides, inviting friends to each bring their favorite dish to go along with your various food options. Additionally, don’t overlook the importance of a great playlist for everyone to enjoy as well. Remember to locate your waterproof speaker and ensure it’s fully charged to enhance your pool party entertainment.
Next, it’s time to choose which activities you want to set up for guests. Setting up a net for pool-based games like water volleyball or pool basketball is a great option. Having pool toys, goggles, and flippers can also provide hours of fun, particularly for guests who enjoy a more active pool experience. If your guests are more interested in relaxing poolside, having accessories such as pool noodles, floats, and loungers are a great options. Pool float races are also a fun compromise between high-energy and relaxing activities. If smaller children will be attending your pool party, having life jackets available and ample supervision are key to ensuring everyone stays safe while enjoying your pool.
While most guests will want to spend the entire day in the pool, you may also want to have a few activities to enjoy out in the yard as well. Setting up space for a slip and slide or a water balloon toss allows guests to have a variety of poolside and backyard activities to choose from. If you’re searching for entertainment for an evening pool party, a floating movie night could be the right fit for you and your friends and family. Once the pool loungers and rafts are out, you can set up a projector near the pool and view your favorite family movie.
