Sound-Effects Game
Instructions:
• Make a copy of the
onomatopoetic descriptions
on the right and cut
them out.
• Fold them and put them in a
bowl or a hat.
• One by one, have each player
come up and select a strip of
paper from the bowl/hat.
• Once they read the
description of the sound, they
must create a sound effect
to imitate the sound that is
defined. Hand gestures and
other body movements are
encouraged! For example,
the player who selects “What
does a hungry tummy sound
like?” might do a sound effect
like “mrrrrrrrrr grrrrrrrrrr
blurgh” and dramatically rub
his/her belly.
• The audience then guesses
what the sound is (“hungry
tummy”).
Onomatopoeia, n.
The creation of words that
imitate natural sounds.
—Merriam-Webster
It’s time to put your sound-effects skills to work. See if the audience can
guess what sound each player is making. For example, if the player says
“hisssssssss,” the audience should say “the sound a snake makes.”
