How to Play
First, setup. Since there’s only people involved, everyone needs to be in the proper position. The best way to set everyone up for this game is to be in a straight line, spaced far enough apart so that others can’t hear what you’re whispering into the next player’s ear. Sometimes you’re working with too tight of a space to allow for a straight line, such as indoors in a bedroom, so then it becomes necessary to arrange everyone in a circle, spaced apart in the same manner as you would in a line.
Next, begin game. The first player starts the game by whispering a single word or phrase into the ear of the next player. No repeating! If the next player didn’t quite hear it, well, that’s a part of the fun of the game! The next player then whispers what they think they heard to the following player, and so on. This continues until the word or phrase reaches the very last person.
Last, announce. The last player gets the most important part, announcing what word or phrase they heard! It’s fun to get to see just how much it changed from one person to the next! The first player then goes on to state what the actual word or phrase was. The last player then gets to jump to the first player position so and starts the game over. This can continue until each person has had a turn at choosing the initial word or phrase and a turn at being the one to announce it!

5 More Ways to Play
Sometimes the same old game can get boring. If you’re looking to put a fun spin on the game, give one of the following variations a shot!
- Movement: It's telephone game meets charades in this wacky version of the game. The first player shows the second player a silly movement or dance move, while everyone else looks in the opposite direction. The second player must then do the same movement to the next player, and so on. Check out the video at the end for a ridiculous demo of this variation!
Drawing: In this variation, the first player choose a word and uses pencil and paper to draw a single line to begin the illustration of the word. You cannot lift the pencil, and once you do, it’s time to pass it to the next player. The next player is quietly told the word and must continue the drawing, again with just one line. At the end of the round, the last player is not told the word and must guess the word by looking at the drawing!
Teams: This is the best way to play with a large group and fun if you like competition! Even teams are made and one single person whispers the same phrase to the first player on each team. Whichever team is closest to having the correct phrase at the end wins!
Foreign language: Play a variation of the game that involves using language that is anything but your primary language. Whatever word or phrase will be dramatically changed at the end!
Rumor has it: In this variation, instruct each person to change just one or two words out of the entire phrase and see just how much words get twisted, just like a rumor that gets spread!
The beauty of the game is sharing a bunch of laughs to see how much everything can change from the original source! It also goes to show you that you just can’t believe everything you hear because so much can get lost through that awful grapevine everyone talks about!
