A Little Game With Lots of Laughing

This weekend we played a little game that had us all crying we were laughing so hard. Here's the jist of it. Each person has a stack of blank papers. One sheet for each person playing. So if 8 people are playing then each person has 8 blank sheets in their pile. Each person writes a simple sentence on the first sheet, then everyone passes their pile of paper to the next person. That person looks at the sentence written on the first sheet, and then draws a picture of that sentence on the next sheet. Everyone passes again. Now you look at the picture on the top sheet and write a sentence about that drawing. And you keep alternating like that until your original pile of papers comes back to you. You only are allowed to look at the sheet of paper that was written or drawn on by the person that is passing to you, you don't get to look at previous sentences or drawings. Then you each take turns reading through your pile of papers and show the pictures to the whole group. Ok, that was a horrible explanation but here, I'll show you some examples of three rounds of this game. Hill-air-e-us.


This was my original one. I wrote this and passed it to Noelle. She read my sentence and then drew this:


She put my sentence to the back of the pile and passed to Mariah who then looked at her picture and wrote this sentence:


After she wrote this, she passed to Shane who drew this little number:


Then Shane passed to Luke who looked at Shane's picture and wrote this sentence:


Then Luke passed to my Dad who read Luke's sentence and then drew this picture, note the guy holding the gas can....


Dad drew this and then passed to my Mom who looked at his picture and then wrote this sentence:


After writing, she passed to Camryn who read her sentence and then drew this picture of mean people and inasent (innocent) people:



After she drew this she passed to Tyler who looked at her picture and then wrote this sentence:


Then Tyler passed to Nate who read Tyler's sentence and drew this picture:



After that picture, it had gone all the way around the circle and was back to me. Does that make sense? It's like a game of telephone gone horribly wrong. Here are two other of our favorite rounds.

The end.


Here is another:

This is my new favorite game of all time ever.
