The Essentials: 15 Summer Items for Backyard Fun

June 13, 2022
  • Share

Last weekend my friend had a few friends over for a summer kick-off party. She put me in charge of outdoor entertainment. There were about ten adults and 4 kids, so I had to think about what to bring for everyone to enjoy. Walmart has an amazing selection of affordable outdoor toys and pool accessories. The perfect place to pick up some activities for everyone to enjoy this summer. My team helped me decide on which items to get. They ended up selecting a cornhole set and pool floats.

My goal for this season is all about creating new memories with friends and family. And there’s no better way to do that than having fun backyard gatherings. Whether it’s a BBQ or a cozy outdoor dinner, it’s important to be prepared for every occasion. See some of my favorite picks from Walmart below to help inspire you!

 

The pool floats were a big hit with everyone. My friend has a gorgeous pool and she mentioned a few weeks ago that she needed to buy a few new ones since the kids broke theirs last year. So I had the team find some cute and comfortable pool floats from Walmart. They have so many fun colors and different styles. I wanted to get floats that have cupholders for drinks. There’s nothing better than floating around your pool with your favorite drink.

My team ran into Walmart to look for lawn games and Jordyn (my social media manager) ended up browsing in their dresses section. She noticed Sofia Vergara has a new line of dresses and thought they were so stylish and super affordable.ย  I loved the blue-green Floral (my favorite colors) and the white version too. So classic and beautiful for the warmer season.

The biggest hit with the kids was the glow-in-the-dark cornhole set. The ring in the center and the bean bags glow which makes it more fun to play at night. It kept the kids busy, which made their parents happy. See my curation of more outdoor activities below. I even included a few dresses because an essential for the summer are also dresses! I personally can never have enough…LOL.

Thanks to Walmart for sponsoring this post. It’s a great place to shop and save this summer on outdoor essentials including bikes, pool accessories, and lawn games. Small items go a long way with kids so it’s better to stock up and have plenty of ideas for the summer to keep them busy. Walmart also has so many stylish and affordable summer fashion essentials. I hope this post helped inspire you for the summer! ๐Ÿ™‚
