Doodling Together
Participants engage in a collaborative drawing activity that fosters creativity and team bonding. By passing around their artwork, they build on each other's ideas while having fun.
How to run it
- 1
Gather participants around a table or in a circle.
- 2
Give each person a sheet of paper or postcard and a pen of the same color and size.
- 3
Instruct the group to start by drawing a simple shape on their paper.
- 4
Once done, pass the paper to the left (or right) and use the shape received to create an object, person, or animal.
- 5
Pass the paper again and add context to the drawing received.
- 6
Lastly, add an action or dynamic element to the paper without using any text.
- 7
Remind participants to pass their paper after each step.
