Back-to-Back
Sitting back to back, one player draws or holds a picture and describes it and the other must draw it.
How To Play
Step 1.
Prepare some cards with simple sketch drawings of everyday objects like a car, a cat or a house.

Divide players into pairs.
Step 3.
Each pair in turn sit back to back. One is given a sketch and the other a blank piece of paper and a pencil.

The player holding the sketch must describe it to the teammate without naming the object.
Step 5.
The player listening to the description must draw what he thinks is on the sketch. How close can they get. Marks out of 10.
