Invisible Drawing
Pairs draw on each other's backs — the other guesses what it is.
Combines gentle physical contact with focused attention — creates calm and connection simultaneously.
Instructions
In pairs, one person draws something simple on their partner's back using one finger — an animal, an object, a number. The partner guesses. Switch. Do 3 rounds each, getting slightly more complex. No words during the drawing — only a yes or no after the guess.
