Lawn darts, also known as Jarts or yard darts, are a recreational outdoor game that was popular in the United States and other countries in the late 20th century. The game consists of large, weighted darts with sharp metal tips that players throw towards a target circle on the ground. The objective is to land the darts in or near the target to score points.

Here's how the game of lawn darts is typically played:

Setup: To play lawn darts, you need a set of darts and a target. The target is usually a plastic or metal ring or circle, often with a smaller circle in the center. The target is placed on the ground, and players take turns standing at a certain distance away from it.

Gameplay: Players take turns throwing the darts, aiming to land them within the target circle or, ideally, in the smaller center circle. Each dart that lands in the target area scores points, with the smaller circle typically worth more points than the larger one. Some variations of the game have different point values for darts that land closer to the center.

Scoring: Points are tallied at the end of each round, and the player or team with the most points wins. The game can be played to a predetermined number of points or rounds.

While lawn darts can be a fun outdoor activity, they also posed safety concerns due to the sharp metal tips on the darts. Accidents and injuries occurred, prompting safety concerns, especially when children were involved. In the late 1980s, the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) banned the sale of traditional lawn darts with metal tips due to the risks they posed.

As a result of safety concerns, modern versions of lawn darts have been developed, which typically use softer materials for the tips and have a safer design. These newer versions aim to provide a similar gaming experience without the risk of serious injury.

It's important to adhere to safety guidelines and follow any local regulations when playing lawn darts or similar outdoor games to ensure the safety of all participants. Always use appropriate safety equipment and supervise children when playing such games.
