Funny Sentence Ideas for Playing Telephone and Other Whisper Games

"I heard it through the grapevine . . . ." Oh, how phrases get twisted when traveling through the grapevine! So twisted, in fact, that the concept makes for a great game for kids and adults to play. Whether you're looking for sleepover game ideas or icebreaker games, the Telephone Game (aka Broken Telephone) might be just what you're seeking!

Of course, you can also use these phrases for any other game that involves guessing a silly spoken sentence, like Whisper Challenge. Some of the shorter ones could also be used for Telephone Pictionary, Gartic Phone, or Pass the Message, although the tongue-twisters are better for games that involve speaking out loud!

How to Play the Telephone Game: Quick Rules

If you've never played Telephone or Broken Telephone before, don't worry—it couldn't be easier to learn!

1. Get the Players Positioned Properly

You don't need any equipment for this game—just people! But you need to get everyone in the proper position. There are two main options for this.

  • Straight Line: 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.
  • Circle: Sometimes you're working with too tight of a space to allow for a straight line, such as indoors in a bedroom. In those cases, have everyone sit or stand in a circle, spaced apart in the same manner as you would in a line.

2. Whisper the Phrase From Person to Person

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 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.

3. Reveal the Final Phrase and the Original Phrase (and Laugh)

The last player gets the most important part: announcing what word or phrase they heard! Then the first player states what the actual word or phrase was. It's fun to see just how much it changed from one person to the next!

4. Play Again

To play another round, have the last player move into the first player position and restart the game with a new phrase. 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!

How Do You Choose a Good Phrase?

Coming up with single words for the Telephone Game is easy, so to create an even better game, you should have a few good phrases handy ahead of time! You want to pick something that's a little challenging and easy to misinterpret because it makes the end result even more entertaining. Also, try choosing a phrase that you think would be totally hilarious for people to whisper down the line, no matter if it's easy or hard; the players' facial expressions will be priceless!

To help you prepare for a memorable game, we've listed more than 100 funny and tricky sentence ideas below. Enjoy!

Other options: an angry ostrich, a peeved corgi, a lovesick flamingo, a grumpy armadillo, a flummoxed raccoon, etc.

Nonsense Phrases Like "Purple Monkey Dishwasher"

Six 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!

1. Group Drawing

In this variation, the first player chooses a word and uses a 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!

2. Alternating Words and Pictures

This variation is also know as Telephone Pictionary or Pass the Message. There are published versions of this game, like the web-based Gartic Phone game and the board game Telestrations, but all you need to play it at home for free is a bunch of paper and pencils!

  1. Each player starts by writing a phrase at the top of their paper.
  2. The players all pass their papers clockwise.
  3. Next, each player draws a picture that illustrates the phrase written on the sheet they've just been handed. This picture should be fairly small (leave room on the page for more!) and placed right under the phrase.
  4. Then, they fold over the paper so that the original phrase is covered, and they pass the papers clockwise again.
  5. Now, all the players will only see a strange picture on their sheets! They write down a phrase that describes the picture, then fold the paper over the picture.
  6. Everyone passes their papers clockwise again.
  7. Now everyone is back to drawing—repeat step 3, and continue writing, then drawing, then writing, then drawing until the papers are filled!
  8. Unfold the papers, laugh hysterically at the twisted phrases and pictures, and pass them around the table for everyone to see.

You can also play this game with notebooks and alternate writing and drawing on different pages rather than folding a single sheet of paper. That uses up a lot more paper, though. Also, try using colored pencils or markers to inspire some artistic (and hilarious) drawings!

3. Teams

This is the best way to play with a large group, and it's fun if you like competition! Divide the players evenly into teams. One 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!

4. Different Language

Play a variation of the game that involves using a language other than your primary language. The word or phrase will be dramatically changed at the end!

5. Rumor Has It

In this variation, instruct each person to change just one or two words out of the entire phrase and see how much the words get twisted—just like a rumor as it spreads!

6. 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 for the next player, and so on. (Check out the video below for a ridiculous demo of this variation!)

Psst! Have Fun Playing Telephone!

The beauty of this game is sharing a bunch of laughs as you see how much words can change as they're passed around. It also goes to show that you can't believe everything you hear through that notorious grapevine!
