Why charades?

Charades is an active, engaging way to get people up and moving. You might be surprised at how hard it is to act out some of these New Year’s Eve words! However, just like life, the journey is the important part. So have fun with all of the near misses and unforgettable attempts. And most importantly, go to the restroom BEFORE starting the game. (If you know, you know.)
