I taught my niece this
game when she was very little. She’s eleven now and she still loves it – she gets
everyone drawing, especially when she sleeps over during the holidays.
Take a piece of paper and
fold it in half, then in half again. The first person to draw draws the head
and neck, the second person draws the upper body down to the waist, the third
draws the hips and thighs, and the last draws the calves and feet. Each person
folds back their drawing so that the next person doesn’t see it and at the end
someone – in our family always the youngest! – unfolds the piece of paper to
see what kind of crazy creature’s been created.
I love that she can
still have so much fun – despite all the TV shows and computer games competing
for her attention – with a scrap piece of paper and coloured pencils...
