Rich Davis, Creative Genius has sent us a fantastic card game, one to review, and one to share with you!
The game is called Pick and Draw and it’s a card game with easy to follow instructions for simple drawings that kids can create.
One of my favorite parts of this game is that Rich included easy to read instructions for kids. (I’m so tired of breaking out my granny glasses and spending half an hour trying to figure out how to play children’s games)
Besides being quick and easy to set up, this game is very simple to play! You start by organizing the cards into the correct decks (which are very brightly color coded
(Did I mention creative genius?)
Then, starting with the face cards you….Pick & Draw:
Then you Pick & Draw again:
Everytime you Pick and Draw a new feature for your character, and in the end you have a custom character created by you…..I mean your kids, cause this game is for them….
Okay it’s for you too….seriously, get a set and you won’t be able to resist:
We played this game in a few different ways,
Each of us drawing with the same cards:
And then each of us using our own set of cards:
Then we couldn’t help but color our little characters in and naming them:
As we played I loved listening to the little giggles as the kiddos drew a new card, “Oh boy, this one is going to be crazy!”
This is the perfect game for family night as everyone can play (without being on Mom or Dad’s team……yes that’s right, a chance to be your own person again!)
Bubba (5) spent the most time playing it!
We all took a break for lunch but he continued to play……(if you know anything about my son the fact that he chose drawing over food really says something!)
Here is one character he made incorporating his love of both:
And can’t you just see the Homeschool application for this game! Let children create a story around their characters, or turn their creations into stick puppets and put on a show! Best of all….Look at the size of the game! Not only will it fit in the kids stockings this year, but hey….punch holes in the corner, put it on a key ring and pull it out for long travel trips….or in our case, Dr. Visits.
