Jennifer Garner is a fun mom!
On Sunday, July 7, the actress, 52, shared a video of her explaining her favorite backyard pool game alongside what appeared to be one of her children.
“If you have access to a pool, spoons and goggles—please borrow my recipe for a good time. Kid not required. ⏱️♥️🥄,” her caption read under the video, which was played alongside “Mr. Blue Sky” by the Electric Light Orchestra.
“It’s the best game. We throw our spoons, three spoons each and we start the stopwatch,” Garner said as she held up three metal spoons in a swimming pool. “We each have to go and collect three spoons but in different parts and come back and turn off the stopwatch.
“We’d love to show it to you,” she added before throwing a spoon.
“There’s strategy, Mo,” said Garner, who shares daughters Violet Anne, 18, and Seraphina Rose, 15, and son Samuel, 12, with ex-husband Ben Affleck.
“I’ll go that way,” she told one of her children to which they replied, “No, I’ll go that way.”

“Okay, I’ll go that way ,” Garner concluded as she changed her direction.
“We have to zig zag back?” she asked. “Oh my gosh, the course keeps getting harder and harder.”
Looking at the stopwatch, Garner told her child, “You’ve really set this up to be a tricky one. We have to go at the same time.”
“Wait, you’re going which way? Lord, have mercy,” she added before setting the stopwatch.
“I got it, go,” Garner yelled before looking at the stopwatch time of 00.29.32. “We’ve got a lot of work to do,” she said with a joke sigh.
The 13 Going on 30 star’s summer fun comes after she thanked her children’s teachers for helping to raise and take care of them.
“A little gratitude for our wonderful family elementary school at the end of 13 years together applies to all educators,” her caption read.
“Thank you for disciplining my kids when they’ve needed it and for offering more hugs than some children receive in a lifetime. Thank you for all of the hard work that goes into having high expectations, for buckling down and teaching them the discomfort and joy of tolerating frustration toward a greater good,” Garner added.
