One of our favorite games to play as a family is Pick and Draw! While it may look like a simple deck of cards, it is really much, much more. It is a fun drawing game for children and adults alike that teaches you how to draw faces and encourages creative thinking! Everyone can play this game, whether you think you can draw or not! There are step by step directions on how to use the facial feature cards to create your very own characters!
What I LOVE About Pick and Draw:
- encourages creative thinking
- instills confidence (My son who doubted his ability to draw “good” faces is now impressed with the characters that he has created!)
- easy to follow, simple instructions
- works on fine motor skills for the younger artist
- only requires pencil and paper to play
- comes in a sturdy, plastic case
- even the little ones can play along (My 4 year olds enjoy trying to draw faces right along with us!)
- only costs $10 (makes a great stocking stuffer!)
Details About the Game:
Each deck of cards has five sets of characteristic cards (face, nose, ears, mouth, and hair). You play the game by starting with the sets of cards face down. One card from each stack is flipped over and you use that characteristic to draw your face. The possibilities are endless! Once you are done drawing your face, give your character a name and tell a story about them!
Be sure to check out the Pick and Draw BINGO gameboard that can be used along with the Pick and Draw cards!

I recruited my 5 year old to play online. He created Silly Sally. He LOVED this and asked to play again. Even if we don’t win, we are definitely buying a few of these. What great gifts!

I learned that this is the perfect game to keep in my purse. No more bored children when we have unexpected waits and no more carrying around a busy bag for each child. This is a game all of our children can play together.
