Yard games have moved beyond badminton and horseshoes. This game set takes a popular “4-in-a-row” game outside. This large wooden version comes with 42 chips.
I can see whiling away summer evenings with the whole family trying to get four in a row, and the glee of releasing all the chips.
This Mega 4-In-A-Row game is $110 at Saks Fifth Avenue. (This “Smiley” version is on sale on Sunnylife.com for $77.) Here’s another option at Amazon.

Ok, I’ve heard of college tours, but summer camp tours are a thing now?! I know multiple people who are touring summer camps this summer in anticipation of sending their kids in 2024. I assumed you just…picked one and sent your kids. Or sent your kids to the one you or your spouse went to. Is it really that big a decision?
