Pictionary word ideas: Jobs
Want to draw what people do for a living? This list collects job and occupation words for Pictionary, from firefighter, chef and hairdresser to air traffic controller or paleontologist, for a drawing game at home or online.
Nobody can draw a "job" directly, so draw the person and give them the right gear. A helmet and a hose say firefighter. A tall white hat and a pan say chef. Scissors and a comb say hairdresser. For the tough ones, add the workplace: a control tower for an air traffic controller, a dinosaur skeleton for a paleontologist. Teachers love this category because kids learn job names while they play, and it works just as well at a family party. Players who enjoy a challenge can stick to the hard column, where you'll find cheesemonger, perfumer and speech therapist.
Create a game and pick this category in the settings.
