Christmas Charades and Draw-It Cards

Blorbo, our very serious Chief Gift Inspector, has been promoted to Official Referee of Christmas. Now your whole party can play. Christmas Charades & Draw-It Cards is a printable party game with 120 original cards. Act out prompts like "Untangling the lights", "The last cookie" and "Wrapping a bicycle" without saying a word, or sketch "Santa's sleigh" for your team before time runs out. Three act-it-out tiers mean the little ones and the show-offs can play at the same table.

Every game card (all 120) shows its tier, its points, a category icon (Decorating, Gifts, Treats, Winter Fun, Critters or Holiday Moments) and a card number. HOW TO PLAY 1. Print and cut the cards, split into 2 to 4 teams, and pick a referee to keep time and score. 2. Act It Out: on your team's turn, one player takes a card and acts it out with no words. Sound effects are allowed on Kids cards only. 3. Draw It: one player takes a card and draws it for the team. No letters, no numbers, no talking. 4. A correct guess before time runs out scores the points on the card: Kids 1, Family 2, Hard Mode 3, Draw It 2. Time's up? The next team gets one guess to steal the points. 5. Each team may pass on one card per game. Put it at the bottom of the deck and take a new one; the clock keeps running. 6. A game is 10 rounds, one row of the score sheet each (fewer if the cards run out). Most points wins, and the referee's word is final. Suggested turn times are on the score sheet: Kids 90 seconds, Family 60, Hard Mode 90, Draw It 60. Use any phone, kitchen or sand timer. GOOD TO KNOW - 120 original prompts written for this game, and every one is different. No movie, song or brand names, so everyone has a fair shot. - Mix and match: Kids cards for the little ones, Family cards for everyone, Hard Mode for grown-ups and big kids. - For 2 to 4 teams, ages 6 and up. Younger players can act or draw with a grown-up partner. - Great for family Christmas, Christmas Eve, holiday game night and office parties. SIZE AND PRINTING TIPS - Made for US Letter paper (8.5 x 11 in). Print at 100% scale ("Actual size") for best results. - Print only the decks you want. Cardstock makes sturdier cards. - Every page is readable in grayscale if you would like to save color ink. - The card backs are optional. To use them, print a card sheet, feed it back into your printer flipped on the long edge, and print the back page on the other side. Page 20 mixes act it out and draw it cards, so print it without a back. Try one test sheet first, because printers line up differently. - You can print at home or at a local print shop.

HOW THIS WAS MADE The illustrations, the page layouts and all of the game text, including the 120 card prompts, the team names and the rules, were created with the help of AI tools, and so were this description and the listing images. The shop owner reviewed and approved this product before it was listed. OddlySpecificGoodsUS · meetblorbo.com
