It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is just around the corner, and we are ecstatic to celebrate this joyous occasion with our loved ones. To make things even more exciting, we have compiled a list of fun-filled games that will surely light up your Christmas party. One of these exciting games is none other than Pictionary.
What is Pictionary?
In case you’re not familiar with the game, Pictionary is a simple yet entertaining drawing and guessing game that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults. The objective of the game is to draw a picture that represents a word or phrase, while the other players guess what the word or phrase is.
This Christmas, why not add a twist to the traditional Pictionary game by choosing Christmas-related words and phrases as the theme? Need some inspiration? Here’s a list of 100 Christmas words to help you get started:
How to Play Christmas Pictionary:
To play Christmas Pictionary, you’ll need a few supplies:
- A whiteboard or large pad of paper with an easel
- Dry erase markers or pens
- A hat or container to hold the pieces of paper with the Christmas-related words or phrases
- A timer (optional)
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to play Christmas Pictionary:
- Divide the players into two teams.
- Each team will take turns selecting a piece of paper from the hat or container that contains the Christmas-related words or phrases. The player who selects the paper will be the one to draw the picture.
- The player must draw their chosen word or phrase on the whiteboard or pad of paper without using any letters, numbers, or symbols.
- Once the drawing is complete, the other members of the team will have one minute to guess what the word or phrase is. If they are able to guess correctly, the team earns a point.
- If the team cannot guess correctly within the one-minute timeframe, the opposing team has the chance to steal the point if they can guess the word or phrase correctly.
- The game continues in this same manner with each team taking turns selecting a word or phrase and drawing it, and the other team guessing within the specified timeframe.
- The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.
