Blind Draw

4 shiney stars

This game involves pairing up. Each pair should sit back-to-back so they cannot see each other. 

Give one member a picture, object or a scene. They must then describe this to their partner without using words that are too obvious (for example, the picture may be of a chicken but the person is not allowed to use the word "chicken, bird, hen", etc.

You can either give everyone the same picture or have a few different options.

Depending on the picture, you will need to allow 10-15 minutes. Once time is up, share the pictures - you will find there are some very funny interpretations!

Variations:

  • Sit in a circle and rotate people mid-drawing (so people must complete someone else's picture)
  • Turn the lights off so the person must draw in the dark
  • Create the portrait without looking at the paper and without your pen leaving the paper

This game is also a lesson in communication and how easily our messages can be misinterpreted.
