ACTIVITIES & GAMES

BLIND ARTIST

• Pair up players and have them sit back to


back. One player holds a picture and the
other player a blank piece of paper and a
pen or pencil. The player with the picture
describes the image, without using any
specific words that will give it away. The
other player draws the image described. At
the end of a set time, drawers show their
pictures. The best representation wins a
prize.
DEATH WINK

• Create enough slips of paper for all the


players to receive one. Mark all but two
pieces with “v” for victim. The other two
are marked “d” for detective and “m” for
murderer. The murderer kills other players
with a furtive wink.Victims “die” when
they are winked at. The detective tries to
find the murderer. When he does so, that
player becomes the detective and another
murderer is chosen. Play as long as the
group enjoys the game.
DON’T LAUGH

• Have all the players stand in a circle


and take turns laughing while
looking at the person next to them.
If someone starts laughing, they are
out. The person left at the end of a
set time is the winner of this simple,
fun game.
MUSICAL CHAIRS

• Although this is considered a children’s


game, adults have a great time playing this
old favorite. Have everyone sit in a circle
of chairs with enough for each player,
minus one chair. Use songs that are
familiar to the group. When the music
stops, whoever can’t find a seat is out.
Keep removing one chair each round of
the game. The last person remaining wins a
small prize.
NAME THAT TUNE

• Choose songs that will be familiar


to the group based upon their ages
and the composition of the group.
Play each song for five seconds. The
first person to call out the right title
of the tune is the winner.
WHAT IS IT?

• Put various small soft items, unusual


toys, etc. in a large bowl. Blindfold
players and have them take turns
reaching in to the bowl and picking
an object. They must identify the
item they touch. Cover the bowl
between turns so other players do
not have the advantage of seeing the
objects before their turn.
FREEZE

• Call to the side a person from the group


and give them directions to stop at some
point and turn in to a statue. Tell the rest
of the group that if they see someone
standing totally still like a stature, they
must do the same immediately, freezing at
the position they are in. The game begins
when the chosen person becomes a
stature and ends when everyone is
standing still. The fun part of this game is
the silly positions people end up frozen in.
GUESS WHO ?

• Have everyone write their name on


a slip of paper and put the slips into
a box, basket, or bag. Each person
draws a name and uses words to
describe the person. Everyone else
guesses who is being described.You
can play this as a team game and
have team members compete to see
which player makes the quickest
guess.
BALLS IN A BUCKET

• For this fun game you will need two chairs and buckets, a large bag
of cotton balls, a large serving spoon, a cloth or bandana to use as
a blindfold, and a stop watch or timer. Put the two buckets on the
chairs, one filled with cotton balls, about five feet apart, facing each
other. Blindfold a player, hand them the large spoon, and instruct
them to move the cotton balls from one bucket to the other. Make
sure you twirl the player around a few times before they begin. Set
the timer for a set amount of time, five minutes maximum. The
player that gets the most cotton balls in the bucket before the
timer goes off wins. If a player loses their direction, they cannot
use their hands to find the bucket. Also, if they peek or use their
hands, they are disqualified. Sometimes the player will lose
direction and begin scooping from the wrong bucket, eliciting great
laughter.

DON’T DO IT!

• One person is chosen to give


directions to the other players, such
as “stand still,” “hop on one foot,”
etc. The goal of this game is for each
player to do the opposite of what
they are told to do. If someone fails
to do the opposite, they are out.
The last player remaining wins this
game.
CHRISTMAS TREE
CHALLENGE
• Choose songs that will be familiar
to the group based upon their ages
and the composition of the group.
Play each song for five seconds. The
first person to call out the right title
of the tune is the winner.
PICK UP GEMS WITH
CHOPSTICKS
• This is a great game to play as teams or
individually. It's very different to normal
work.You’ll need a lot of Gems, bowls,
chopsticks if you play it as individuals but it’
well worth the outlay in materials (plus
everyone gets to eat the gems when the
game is finished). Instruct participants to pick
up and move as many gems as possible from
one bowl to another (the second bowl
should be empty) in one minute using
nothing but the provided chopsticks. The
person with the most wins.
SEPARATE THE BEANS

• You will need plenty of desk space and a fair


amount of beans for this game but it’s a quick and
fun diversion. Purchase two bags of kidney beans
and two bags of chickpeas (or any type of beans
that differ in color or shape). Separate one bag of
kidney beans and one bag of chickpeas into a bowl
for each team (you’ll also need four empty bowls
for the sorting). Divide into two teams and then
instruct teams to separate the beans into type. The
team that gets the most kidney beans and the most
chickpeas in one minutes wins.
KARAOKE DAY

• Karaoke is a form of interactive


entertainment in which anyone
interested to sing can sing along
with recorded music using a
microphone. It serves to be a highly
engaging fun activity, especially at the
workplace. So, give an interactive,
entertaining, stress relieving and
confidence building platform to your
employees
