Narnia Version of "Guess Who?"
A few years ago I made a Chronicles of Narnia version of the game Guess Who? for my kids. Have you ever played this game? The object is to guess the name of the other person through a process of elimination.
For our Narnia version, I drew pictures of various characters from all the books, colored them, made color copies, laminated them and then cut them out and slid them in over the original Guess Who? faces.
Emma and Joshua Quinn loved it. Instead of only asking questions like "Does your person have black hair?" you can ask questions like, "Is your person a human? Is your person a talking beast? Is your person one of the Pevensie kids?"

That's awesome! What are the chances that, for the non-artists among us, you could scan the drawings and put up a .PDF so we can make our own?

Talk about raising the bar for the Dads out there. Josh you're a wonderful father...no doubt your kids will treasure the creative ways you show them you love them.

I think you're onto something... What a cool idea! If you ever decide to market this (in any way/shape/form) I'm sold. :-)

This is so cute! My six year old brother would go bonkers over this. Actually, my 16 year old brother would too :) I'm with Eric. What are the chances of you uploading a PDF so that we can make our own?

That is really neat! Sounds like a lot more fun than the original.

Soo... why did you need someone to do caricatures? These are fun.

Awww - how cute!
I teach Sunday school and am always looking for newer ways to get kids engaged in what they are learning.
Thanks for sharing this! May God continue to bless you.
