Are you and your friends bored of playing the same games over and over? Then how about giving charades a chance. Here’s an article that gives you tons of choices in what topics you can choose…
There’s nothing more fun than playing games and spending quality time with friends/family. And when it comes to playing games, charades is one game that can quiet the biggest talkers. (Laugh) Well, those are rules of the game, aren’t they? Every now and then, teens like to do something fun, but when it comes down to thinking about it, not many can come up with “fun” things to do. This is one game that is both enjoyable and a great way to bond with friends. I mean, enough of roaming around in the mall and going to the beach every weekend. Even though these activities will never go out of style or get people bored, but at times, you do want a change. So the next time you all meet, why not suggest to play the game with your friends? And to help you get started, we’ve put together a list of charades topics that you can review. Choose a place to play the game – someone’s living room, backyard, beach, or park, gather everyone there, get some snacks and beverages, and start playing.
Make two or more teams (depending on the number of players) with equal number of players and choose each topic, one by one, to play. You can even mix the topics in a bowl and hope to get the easiest one to enact. And now, let’s not waste more time talking but see some exciting ideas.
Celebrities and Sports Personalities
In this topic, write the names of famous movie celebrities from movies, TV shows, models, and singers. You can mimic the celebrities from the popular characters they’ve played over the years or try to get their name. It won’t be easy, but surely fun to watch. And as far as sports is concerned, everyone loves to watch movies and they surely have a list of favorite movies. Similar to the famous celebrities, you can make a topic for famous sports personalities. They can be anyone, whom you and your friends know about and include in the game. Imitate like them, the sport they play, and try to make your team catch it.
