Can you draw a picture using only the words you hear?
Get ready for a wonderfully silly drawing game that combines listening, imagination and descriptive writing!
Our Draw What I Describe! pack is designed to help children aged 5–7 explore adjectives and develop their descriptive writing skills through play.
The idea is simple! A grown-up or partner reads a mystery description aloud, one instruction at a time, while children listen carefully and draw what they hear. Once everyone has finished, it's time for the big reveal!
Will their drawings look like the original picture? Will everyone have drawn the same thing? Probably not, and that's all part of the fun!
Once the mystery picture has been revealed, children use their own drawings as inspiration for some descriptive writing. With a helpful adjective word bank and space to explore their own vocabulary, children are encouraged to think carefully about the words they choose to describe their creations.
What's included:
Simple instructions for playing the game
A collection of mystery pictures and step-by-step drawing descriptions
A reusable drawing and writing activity sheet
An adjective word bank exploring size, shape, colour and texture
Space to collect ideas and write descriptive sentences
Perfect for: Children aged 5–7 (Years 1 and 2), whether learning at home or in the classroom.
Format: Digital PDF download. Print and enjoy as many times as you like!
A playful way to practise listening and attention, explore new vocabulary and discover just how powerful descriptive language can be.
Because learning to write should be fun!
