English word games for kids, played with the whole family
Step 1 of 3How many players?
Names (optional) Add names so turns are called by name
First names or nicknames, saved only on this phone. Pick a kid’s age so the youngest goes first and quiz cards fit each kid; tick “Adult” for grown-ups: they get harder words to act out and no kids-only topics.
Want your kids to use English without sitting down to study? Act out, draw or hint an English word for the family to guess, then everyone says it out loud. Cards for the youngest come with a picture. Choose the number of players, the youngest age and the time above to get a ready plan.
🔤 Tip: a point counts only when the guesser says the English word. If they say it in another language, the family gives the English word and everyone says it once together. Parents who are not fluent can play too: kids remember best what they teach.
