The alphabet game
The classic car game: players look for words that start with each letter of the alphabet. A great way to pass the time on a road trip (as long as you’re not driving exclusively through the plains of Wyoming or something).
Dibble dabble
Dibble dabble is a great game to play in the pool: fun, simple enough for younger kids, challenging enough for older kids, and, unlike some of my other favorite pool games, not overly rough/dangerous. 😉
Dodgeball
A classic playground or gym game, but pretty easily played in other settings and with a big group or a small group.

Four on the couch
A good indoor party game for older kids or teenagers. It could kind of be a get-to-know-you game, too. It involves lots of memory and strategy.
