Best Lawn Games to Play With Dad on Father’s Day

Viking bowling, or its cousin game kubb, is another fun lawn game that works for all but the littlest tots. You might think of Viking bowling as a cross between bowling and pool. Throw a thick wood dowel toward a collection of other dowels arranged in a triangular shape. Knock down the numbered dowels for points, then set them back up where they land. There are different ways to score this game, but some figure-in-your-head math is a bonus for elementary-age players. You can play with as few as two people or a larger group divided into teams.
