How to Play St. Patrick’s Day Charades
- Split up into two teams making it as fair as possible if you’re playing with kids.
- Decide how the winner will be determined prior to starting. Will you play until all of the charades cards are gone? Will you play X amount of rounds or will you go until everyone has had a chance to be the actor?
- Flip a coin to see which team goes first. This is Team 1.
- Team 1 will choose a player to act first. This player will draw a card from the bowl.
- Set a timer for 1 minute. Once the timer starts, the player can begin acting out what is on the card using only body gestures and motions. No vocal sounds are allowed.
- If Team 1 guesses the card correctly before the timer runs out, then they receive a point for the card, and the round is over. If they do not correctly guess the card before the timer runs out, then Team 2 is allowed one guess to steal the points.
- Now, Team 2 will choose an actor and repeat this process.
- Play until a winner has been determined (the way you established BEFORE starting).
Tips for Charades
- When acting out a phrase, hold up your fingers to indicate how many words are in the phrase. For example, if you draw “leprechaun trap” you would hold up 2 fingers to let your teammates know you have a two word card. Then, hold up one finger to start acting out the word “leprechaun”. After your teammates guess the word “leprechaun” then hold up two fingers and act out “trap”.
- When a player guesses correctly touch your nose and then point at that player who answered correctly.
- If you are playing with young children, consider allowing them to use sounds until they can get the hang of the game.
