Questions

How do you play charades?

One player draws an idea and acts it out without speaking; the others guess it before the time runs out.

What makes an idea easy or hard?

Easy ones are single actions or animals a child can act; hard ones are jobs and situations that take a few moves.

Can I keep drawing new ideas?

Yes: press the button for the next idea; the ideas already shown do not come back until every idea has been drawn.
