Lotta Laughs

The other night we played a game that we learned at the Bluedorn's house on New Year's Eve. It's a lot of fun and always makes for a good laugh.
Everyone has a blank piece of paper and they each write a sentence (the sillier the better) at the top of the page. The papers get passed to the right and everyone then draws a picture of what the sentence on their new sheet is describing.
Next, you fold back the sentence so that only the picture is showing and again pass the papers to the person next to you. You then have to write another sentence describing what you think the picture is depicting. This continues until you run out of room on the page. Everybody then unfolds the papers and it's hilarious to see how the sentences and pictures progress from the beginning to the end.


No artistic talent is required, in fact, we've found that the results can turn out funnier when you have bad artists in the bunch. Nobody knows what was drawn, so you have to guess what it was supposed to represent!

The paper above started out with the sentence, "The daisy is fighting with the birthday cake" and ended up with, "I'm forever blowing bubbles, pretty bubbles in the air!"

I think it was also a good stress reliever. We laughed so hard we were nearly crying!
