Charades for Kids
Playing charades as a family with your children is a great way to create lasting memories. I love hearing that the things my kids remember most are mostly simple game nights we have had. It isn’t the elaborate trip to Disney they always bring it. It is those moments that we spend connecting as a family through games like zoo charades, 50+ Best Fall This or That Questions, and even sharing 80 Computer Riddles for Kids while in the car.
Find those moments you can connect with your kid and through simple activities, you too can create lasting memories.
How to Play Charades
Charades is a game that can be enjoyed by families of all ages. It’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon or evening together, and it’s a great way to get everyone laughing and having fun. Here’s how to play charades.
- Make sure everyone knows the rules ahead of time. This will help prevent any arguments or confusion during the game.
- Print and cut charade cards before the game starts. That way you are prepared.
- Keep things moving by limiting each player to one minute or so per turn.
- Be sure to applaud all good guesses – even if they’re not exactly right!
- Most importantly have fun!
