Wiffle Ball

Lately the kids have been playing Wiffle Ball - a favorite pasttime of my dh when he was a boy on the farm. You don't need many players (2 works) and you don't need much space - so the backyard works fine...except when the ball lands in the neighbor's yard. In the picture above there is a tee - but they don't use that anymore (helpful when no pitcher is around).

The ball is plastic and full of holes - lightweight - a glove is optional and if mom's pitching she doesn't have to be too scared about getting hit with the ball.
