Express It!

*


by Marjorie Mitlin, LICSW



Here is a fun, fast-moving game that encourages players to express themselves with language, pantomime, and drawing. The card format provides a safe, structured way to address the often awkward topics that kids need and want to discuss: feelings, family, friends, school, and childhood. For teen players, you can add card decks that focus on eating habits, depression and suicide, drugs and alcohol, sexuality, and adolescence.



Somewhat similar to

Charades

, this game is played by teams, and is therefore ideal for use with groups. A player spins the spinner, picks a card from the indicated deck, and tries to communicate its content to his or her team, using descriptive language, pantomime, or drawing. Points are awarded for successful efforts, and then the other team takes a turn at the spinner. Play can be timed to add excitement. Score sheets, sketchpads, and timer are included. For 4 to 12 players.

Sebastian ★★★★★

My 15-year-old nephew usually rolls his eyes at board games, but he actually cracked a smile during the drawing rounds. It's nice how the cards offer a mix of charades and Pictionary without feeling too childish.

Emma ★★★★★

The pantomime cards got my quiet 14-year-old nephew hamming it up and laughing along with everyone else. It’s nice to have a structured game that gets teens talking without it feeling forced or awkward.

Sebastian ★★★★★

My daughter actually asks to play this, which says a lot for a game that gets her talking instead of staring at a screen. The mix of cards keeps it from feeling like a therapy session, and the pantomime ones get everyone laughing.
