 Fun for the Whole Family!Jan 09, 2007
By Janet Boyer
"Author of Tarot in Reverse"
One of the games my son got from his Grandma for Christmas was Pictionary Jr. My husband, myself and our son was on one team, and my brother, his girlfriend, and her son was on the other. We were having so much fun that Grandma begged us to play the next game!
When rolling the die and landing on an All Play square (shown by an image of four pencils), the "Picturist" for one team shows the Picturist from the other team the word that matches the color of the square landed upon. BOTH Picturists draw the word and then it's a race as to who draws the picture the fastest. For Single Play (shown by a single pencil), one team rolls the die and sketches until someone on the team does NOT guess the picture.
This game comes with a white side with easier words (for smaller children), while the blue side has more challenging words. For example, the white side of one card may have Bell, Baby, Box, Button and Branch (Starts with "B"), while the blue side will have Team, Goal Post, High Five, Quarterback and Cheerleader (Football Game). Of course, which word is actually drawn depends on which colored square that is landed on.
There are two game pieces and a sand timer. The game comes with two small pencils and a pad of paper, but get this: the pencils aren't even sharpened! They're just pieces of unsharpened wood. Sheesh...they don't make 'em like they used to!
If you like drawing games, Pictionary Jr. is a fun option for the whole family--even for children who can't yet read (they can always guess what the pictures are!). Unfortunately, there needs to be at least 3 players for this game. In the case of 3 players, one person serves as the permanent Picturist for both teams.

Finally, a Kid's Game with Drawing!!Aug 14, 2004
I like Pictionary Jr. because it is a game about drawing, one of my favorite things, for kids. It's hard for younger kids who can't read and you need about four people. But overall, I really like it.

GREAT Family GAME!!Jan 10, 2008
By Buffalogal

This game will be easy for adults but is really good for kids. My kids loved to play regular pictionary but it is hard for them to understand what some the items/things are to draw. Sometimes I don't know... Pictionary Jr solves that problem easily. It is a game for the whole family and comes with 2 skill levels for different ages of kids. Kids have to think outside the box and it is really great to see how their minds truly work diffently from an adults.

Love this game!Jan 19, 2007
By Lynnette Branstetter
I bought this game for my 7 year old twins, a boy and a girl. They both love it. It is nice having two different levels of difficulty. An adult must help as the kids can't read all of the words yet. We even help our 3 year old play too. As a teacher and parent, I would definitely recommend this game for the whole family.
