Charades tips & FAQ
How many kids charades words are on this hard list?
This hard list has 35 hand-picked kids charades prompts. Every one loads as plain text on the page, so you can read them all, print them, or scroll through on a phone without any sign-up or download.
What makes these kids clues "hard"?
Hard clues are more abstract or less familiar, so the actor has to break the idea into several small gestures. They reward creative performers and keep experienced players challenged.
How do we play charades with this list?
Split into two teams, pick an actor, and start a one to two minute timer. The actor silently mimes the kids prompt while their team guesses. No talking, pointing at objects, or mouthing words. Score a point for each correct guess before time runs out, then swap actors and pass to the other team.
