Freaky creatures
Sit around a table – you will need between 3-4 adults/children.
- Take a blank sheet of paper for each person & supply everyone with coloured pencils/pens.
- Fold the paper into 4 sections – each section represents part of the body of your ‘freaky creature’: top section is the ‘head’, followed by the top-half of the body, bottom-half of the body & finally the legs/feet.
- Each person first draws a ‘head’ onto the top of the page (try to do this without anyone else seeing what you have drawn). Ensure that the ‘neck’ goes just into the start of the next section. Then, fold over the ‘head’ so the next person can’t see what you have drawn & pass onto the next person.
- Next, everyone draws the top half of the body, fold over & passes on – all the way down to the feet.
- Finally, open up your sheets & name your ‘freaky creatures’.
There are no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ pictures here – praise each of your children for their wacky imagination and fantastic drawing skills!
