The Draw My Picture Game

The Draw My Picture Game

Materials:

• Pencils or crayons
• White paper(full sized or cut in half)
• Clipboards
• Ears (Available on the heads of most children though not always used)

Directions:

Have each player partner up with another player. Give each person a piece of paper, a writing utensil, and a clipboard. Tell the players to sit back-to-back with their partners. Explain that one person (the Artist) will draw a picture using only simple shapes and lines. The other player (the Apprentice) cannot look while he is doing it. When the Artist is done, he must give the Apprentice verbal directions on how to draw his picture. The Artist may not look at the Apprentice’s work while he is drawing. When the Apprentice is finished, the two players compare their drawings. They can then switch roles and play again.

First, your paper should be situated vertically on your desk.
