Connections: Families.

What You Need: Paper; pencil crayons and/or markers.

Doing It:

This is an easy game children, parents, and grandparents can play over the holidays or any time. Guessing memories is fun for young and old.

On their own sheet of paper, each person draws a picture of a favorite family memory. It should be something specific that everyone would know about, and ideally something that involved two or more people. You can limit memories to something that’s happened in the last year, or be more general. As they’re drawing, each person hides their picture from everyone else.

When everyone is finished drawing, hold pictures up one at a time for people to try to guess the memory. Hints are allowed if required!

Once a memory has been guessed correctly, talk about why it’s a favorite memory.
