What is Pictionary?
For those who may not know, Pictionary is a classic party game where players draw a picture to represent a word or phrase, while their team tries to guess what it is. It’s a great way to get people laughing and having fun together.
Why Use Printable Pictionary Cards?
While you can play Pictionary with just a pen and paper, using printable cards can make the game even more fun and organized. With these free printable Pictionary cards, you won’t have to come up with your own prompts, and you can easily print out as many copies as you need for all the players.
How to Play Pictionary:
If you’ve never played Pictionary before, here are some basic instructions to get you started:
- Split everyone into teams of 2 or more.
- Choose a “drawer” for the first round. They will draw the prompts while the rest of their team tries to guess.
- Pick a card from the deck, and show it to the drawer without their team seeing.
- Set a timer for 1-2 minutes.
- The drawer will start drawing, and their team will try to guess the word or phrase. The drawer cannot speak or make any gestures, and they cannot write any letters or numbers.
- If their team guesses correctly before the timer runs out, they get a point. If not, it goes to the other team’s turn.
- Repeat until each person has had a turn drawing, or until you run out of cards.
- The team with the most points at the end wins!
Other Ways to Use Printable Pictionary Cards:
While Pictionary is usually played as a team game, there are other ways you can use these cards too:
- Solo: Try to draw as many prompts as you can in a set amount of time, and see how many you can get right.
- Charades: Instead of drawing, act out the prompts to your team, without speaking.
- Telephone Pictionary: Similar to the game of Telephone, each person draws a prompt and passes it along to the next person, who tries to guess what the prompt is. This continues until it gets back to the original person, and everyone can see how the prompt has changed along the way.
