We love drawing games for connection and creativity. This one is super simple and perfect for when everyone needs a break!

Everyone sits with a piece of paper and a pencil and takes turns directing the drawing.

For example, one person can say, “Draw a bulldozer,” and everybody will each draw one on their paper. Then someone else can say, “Draw a mountain,” and they’ll each draw that.

Nobody looks at each other’s drawings until everyone has filled their page and are finished with the drawing session.

This art game is both a great way to connect with your kids and also a low-key way to encourage their drawing skills.
