Looking for a hilarious group drawing activity that sparks creativity and teamwork? Try Mystery Drawing! This game invites each player to draw one part of a creature, person, or animal—without seeing what anyone else has drawn. The result? A totally unexpected and often hilarious mash-up!

All you need is a piece of paper and something to draw with. It’s a great way to break the ice, encourage imagination, and create art without any pressure to “get it right.” This is perfect for rainy days, parties, or quiet creative time with family or friends.

Materials Needed

• Blank paper (printer or notebook paper works great)

• Pencils, pens, or crayons

Tools Needed

• None

Steps

1. Fold the Paper: Fold the sheet horizontally into equal sections (3–4 works best).

2. Draw the First Part: One person draws a head (human, animal, or imaginary creature) in the top section.

3. Fold & Pass: Fold the paper back to hide the drawing and pass it to the next player.

4. Continue Drawing: Each person draws the next part (neck/torso, legs, feet, etc.), only seeing a hint of where to continue.

5. Final Reveal: Once all sections are filled, unfold the paper and reveal the silly surprise creation!
