Materials: list of words to draw or make
Get into teams of anywhere from 3 to 8 players. When the game starts, teams have to send one person at a time up to the leader in the middle who has a list of all the pictionary words. After the first one that everyone gets, they must wisper the word they got right, so the leader can give them their next word. No speaking is to be allowed by the person drawing and the first team to get through the list of words, wins!
This game can be done in different ways, either up front or in groups and either with a pile of charade cards, or when they get one right, a different person runs to the main leader for the next word. We’ve used it as a stand alone game, or as a board game night, making a whole heap of board games into group games.
Playdough Pictionary: a twist to the normal pictionary, is to give teams a blob of playdough to use to get their team to guess the word.
