Telephone Pictionary

This is just a fun game to get everyone relaxed and laughing. You’ll need: pens/pencils for every member, blank printer paper, scissors, and a stapler. Pass out the paper, giving every person one sheet for each member playing (so if you have ten people playing, give everyone ten sheets). Have everyone cut their paper in half and then fold it into a booklet, and staple the spine. Everyone should have their own booklet. Each person now writes on the first page a phrase of some sort, whether it’s a song lyric or a funny action, there is no limit on what it can be. Some examples might be: Abraham Lincoln going sledding, two penguins in a fistfight, shot through the heart and you’re to blame, I was dead at the time…anything! Everyone then passes their booklet in a clockwise direction. The person it is passed to looks at the phrase and draws their best impression of what it might look like. You can set a time limit to make the game especially fun and frenzied. When the drawing is done, everyone passes their booklets again, making sure that their drawing is the only visible page. The next person looks at the drawing and flips to a new page, and draws what they think is going on. This continues around the circle until you have your original booklet back. Everyone shares the (usually hilarious) final drawing with the group and shows the evolution of drawings.
