Every single one of us at one time has played the game of Loteria con El Gallo, La Dama, y La Sandia. I decided to give it a twist and make it a bit more interactive.

Here’s what you need:

• A loteria set

• Poster board

• Marker

 

1. Begin by placing everyone into two teams.

2. Give each team a playing card.

3. One person must act as the mediator.

4. Then one person from each team takes turns selecting a card and must act out what character is on it.

5. Their team must then guess it right for a point and cross it off their playing card.

6. The first team to complete their card wins.

7. The poster board can be used to make a list of the words that were guessed right in the order that they were selected.
   

This was just a way to make the game a little different and more exciting!
