Format Games’ Toodles is a bit like Charades, but instead of acting out the hidden word/phrase, the teams have to draw the hidden word/phrase. Sound familiar? Not so fast! Instead of one player drawing, two members of the team have to draw with a single marker that they both control. Sound easy? They have to […]
