Time for a new relay, then! Do you have a text to suggest?
(Or even a simple exercise - those were fun, too, and a lot
less work to organize.)

Try to scan in illustrations from an old language course - those
sixties and seventies ones had illustrations that aren't used anymore,
but would remind anyone of learning vocabulary on rainy afternoons...

Depending on the atmosphere needed you could do worse than take the
illustrations from old Russian course books, for example. My 'De
Russische Taal', Uitgeverij Progress, Moskou, has good ones - and
they're not copyrighted.
