Every word on this page is a word in Draw and Guess, our free Pictionary-style drawing game. One player draws on their phone, the drawing appears live on everyone else's, and they race to type the answer. No paper, no timer to watch, no download, and it works around a table, on a TV, or on a Zoom or Teams call.
For a class, start with the easy list (or print the cards and draw them from a hat): every word is family-friendly, and drawing vocabulary is a quick brain break. For a virtual game on Zoom or Microsoft Teams, share a Draw and Guess room so everyone draws and guesses on their own screen. For an office party, the funny ideas above get the biggest laughs.

Good Pictionary words are things everyone knows and can picture in a few lines: animals (a giraffe), food (a pizza), objects (an umbrella) and places (a lighthouse). Save sayings and actions, like a snowball fight or raining cats and dogs, for a harder round.
Simple objects drawn in a few lines: an apple, a cat, a kite, a rainbow, a snowman, a rocket. The easy list above has 200 of them.
Two-word scenes, sayings and ideas: a traffic jam, a time machine, stage fright, couch potato, raining cats and dogs. They take a clever drawing and a quick-thinking room.
Split into two teams. One player gets a word (pick one from the lists here or tap the generator), draws it for their team on paper or a whiteboard with a one-minute timer, and the team guesses. A right guess scores a point; then the other team draws. No letters, numbers or talking while drawing.
