Notes

Make sure there is plenty of room on the paper for kids to draw. They often find it helpful if there is one thing already done, such as the outline of a head, to help them get started.

Encourage creativity and let them draw any style they want, like and elephants nose instead of a person's nose. The kids will crack up at drawings they they get and you can be really creative by having them draw things like sideburns, jewelery, etc.

A big thanks to Ted for this EFL/ESL game!
