Icebreakers - Individual
INDIVIDUAL ICE BREAKERS
3 Words: ask each member of the group to think of 3 words that sum up:
Their hopes/dreams/ambitions

Their day at school/work

What they want to do on holiday

What they think about an issue

Or any other questions relevant to the session you’re going to be doing. This could also be used as a very
quick evaluation tool.
Beachballs: give each member of the group a piece of paper and ask them to write one fact about
themselves on it (the more interesting the better!). Now scrunch up the paper to make a ball and use
the balls to play catch – let this go on for long enough that the balls get thoroughly mixed. Now ask each
young person to pick up a ball, open it and read out what it says. The rest of the group then need to try
and match the fact to the person.
Social Networking Badges: Print out the badge template onto stickers or pieces of paper or light card
that young people can attach to their clothes with a safety pin. Ask young people to fill out the
information and then walk around and mix with other young people to start building social networks
based on liking the same films or music. As a follow up, ask young people if they would go into the street
wearing the badges? Point out that sharing information can help you to get to know people but it’s a
good idea to be careful about the information you share with people you don’t know very well.
Roll Of Honour: Pass a toilet roll around the group and tell each person to take as many sheets as they
like. When the roll has been passed round the entire group, ask them to count up how many sheets they
have – now the good/bad news. For each sheet they have to tell the rest of the group a fact about
themselves.
Find your pack: Write the names of several animals with distinct sounds – dog, cat, cow, pig etc. – on
pieces of paper (about 5 for each animal depending on the size of the group). Ask each person to pick a
piece of paper and look at it. Then, just by making the sound of the animal, they must try and find the
rest of the animals in their pack.
Social Networking Badge
Icebreakers - Pairs
PAIRS ICEBREAKERS
Find Out About: Divide the group into pairs and give them a few minutes to find out about each other –
this is easiest if they take turns to ask the questions. You Can give the pairs specific things to find out
about e.g. favourite book/film/music or leave it open ended and see what each young person thinks it’s
important to find out about. When time is up, ask each partner to tell the rest of the group what they
found out.
Mirror: Divide the group into pairs and ask them to stand (or kneel or sit) opposite each other. The aim
is for them to take turns mirroring each other’s actions. Allow one partner to lead for a few minutes
then swap over. Encourage the pairs to get more mobile the better they get at mirroring. You could
also try using speech and see how quickly each partner can pick up on what the other is saying. Then
encourage the group to mingle and start again with a new partner.
Lost: ask everyone in the group to think of one thing they’d want to have with them if they were lost on
a dessert island – tell them it doesn’t have to be sensible, it could be an ice cream or their pet! Now
divide the group into pairs and ask them to share their ideas with each other – how could they use and
combine their objects to survive?
All change: Split the group into pairs, then get them to sit opposite each other to form 2 circles. Give
each pair about 30 seconds to introduce themselves by saying their name and one fact about
themselves then call ‘all change’. The inner circle moves round one and the outer circle stays still.
Repeat till everyone has spoken to everyone (if you can’t make 2 circles, make 2 lines and ask the line
on the left to move along one when you call ‘all change’)
Icebreakers - Groups
GROUP ICEBREAKERS
Pass The Pulse: Divide the group into 2 teams and ask them to stand in line back to back. The person at the
end of the line holds a small object (ball/pen/coin). At some distance from the end of the line place 2
wastepaper bins (or similar). To start the game the session leader touches the first players in the line on the
shoulder at the same time. The players must then ‘pass a pulse’ (squeeze the hand of the next person in line)
to the player holding the object. As soon as that person receives the pulse they must run to the bin and drop in
their object. First team to do so wins. Play best of 5. ‘Pass the pulse’ is also a great focus/energiser exercise –
simply get the group to sit in a circle, close their eyes and pass the pulse. See how fast you can get!
In the Right Order: ask the group to arrange themselves in a line according to:

Date of birth

Initial letter of first name/surname

Height
Or any other suitable grouping. You could also divide the group into 2 teams and see which team does the task
fastest.
The Human Knot ask the whole group to stand in a circle. Now ask them to cross their arms in front of them
and hold onto the hands of someone across the circle from them. Make sure everyone is holding hands. Now
untangle the knot! This is great for working together as a team and communicating verbally and non verbally
Empty Chair: Have each member of the group take a chair and arrange randomly in the space. Now make one
person ‘it’ (or assume the role yourself) and send them to the other side of the room from their empty chair.
The aim is for the rest of the group to stop them reaching an empty chair, which means they have to move
from chair to chair rapidly trying to ensure that the empty chair is as far away as possible from ‘it’. The person
who is ‘it’ moves at a walk throughout, whilst the rest of the group may run. As soon as ‘it’ reaches an empty
chair, whoever is still standing becomes ‘it’. The game has no time limit.
Mingle, Mingle: Ask the group to move around the room as you call ‘mingle, mingle, mingle’. Then shout out a
category that they need to get into e.g. Get into groups of 3, people with the same hair colour, wearing the
same colour socks. All group members will need to hold onto each other. You can play a variation of this by
marking a line down the middle of the floor and asking the group to make choices – ‘if you like cats, step to the
left, if you like dogs step to the right’. At some point during either of these games, every member of the group
will have something in common with everyone else.

Team Building Activities
THE TALLEST TOWER
•
AIM: to illustrate the importance of collaboration & communication
MATERIALS:
•
Paper plates, cups, bowls
•
Lolly sticks & coffee stirrers
•
Yogurt pots & empty cardboard cartons
•
Tape & string
•
Pens & pencils
•
Stiff paper & cardboard
•
A prize (big bag of sweets for everyone to share or something similar)
Divide the materials into bags but make sure you divide them unequally e.g. One bag may have 10 sheets of paper and 1
lollystick, another may have 12 coffee stirrers and 3 cups etc.
DIRECTIONS
•
Divide the group into smaller groups (make sure you have a good mix in each group!) and ask them to find a space to work
in
•
Ask a representative from each group to come forward to get directions and materials – give them each a bag and tell them
the aim is to communicate and collaborate to build the tallest free standing tower.
•
Discourage questions – respond with a phrase like “I’ve told you all I know – you’ll have to figure out the rest for yourselves”
•
Give the groups 20 minutes to build – after a few minutes of building, tell the groups to stop and have a look at what the
other teams are doing
•
Make a note of whether groups begin to collaborate and share, beg, barter and steal or simply get on with the task making
the best of what they have.
Fun Team Building Activities
THE TALLEST TOWER
DEBRIEF
Whole group questions:
•
Raise your hand if you helped build a tower!
•
What worked well?
•
What challenges did you encounter and how did you overcome them?
•
Did you build the tallest tower you could? If not, why not?
If the groups didn’t work together:
•
Why did you stay in your group and not share supplies?
•
Could you have built a taller tower if you’d worked with the other groups?
If the groups did work together:
•
Why did you decide to work together?
•
What became possible when you started to share your resources?
Ask everyone:
•
How can we make sure we all work together, communicate and share as a group?
FOLLOW UP
•
Use the ideas from the debrief to set some ground rules for group work
Lost
with thanks to Vanessa Rogers & CYPN
SET UP: Read out the following scenario
“A light aircraft makes an emergency crash landing leaving you lost in the middle of a dense tropical forest on the edge of a
swamp swarming with mosquitoes. It’s extremely hot and humid and night is falling. You’ve lost all radio contact and nobody
knows where you are.
Then someone shouts ‘Quick, get out! The plane is about to explode!’ You have a few minutes to grab some essential items and get
out – you have your mobile with you, but there’s unlikely to be a signal. You’re dressed but you don’t have a coat. There are several
items close enough to take before the plane bursts into flames – what will you choose?”
Hand out the Lost List below and ask each young person to spend a few minutes thinking about what items would be most
important for survival – stress that there are no ‘right’ answers.
ACTIVITY: Divide the group into smaller groups and ask them to discuss their personal choices before agreeing a team list. The
rules are these:
• Each team can only take 10 items
• All items must be agreed by the whole team
• Teams can’t take part of something or split things up
• Each team will need to nominate a spokesperson to feedback at the end of the exercise
Allow about 20 minutes for discussion and to agree the list. As activity leader, you may answer questions about the plane crash
and the circumstances that the survivors find themselves in but you can’t offer opinions as to what they should take.
FEEDBACK: Invite each team to present their list and explain their choices. How easy was it to agree the choices? Was it easier or
harder to make the decisions as a team? What were the benefits of a teamwork approach?

Fun Team Building Activities
•
The Helium Stick: Divide the group into smaller groups of about 12 people. Ask the members of the group to either stand in
2 rows facing each other, or in a circle. Ask them to hold their arms out and point their index fingers. Now place a
lightweight tent pole or an unweighted hula hoop on their outstretched fingers and ask them to make sure that everyone’s
index finger is touching the pole/hoop. Now all they have to do is lower the pole/hoop to the floor without grabbing it – it
must rest on top of the fingers. The problem is, the pole/hoop has a tendency to float up rather than fall! The group will
need to calm down, concentrate, be patient and work together to achieve the task.
•
Toxic Waste: The challenge is to move the toxic waste contents to the "neutralization" container using minimal equipment
and maintaining a safe distance within a time limit. Mark a circle on the floor about 8ft wide (the wider the circle the more
difficult the task) and place a bucket filled with water or balls in the centre. This is the toxic waste. Place another larger
bucket 30-50 feet away (the further away the more difficult the activity). Place 8 lengths of cord and a bungee loop in a pile
– you may add red herring objects if you like. The challenge is to move the toxic waste to the neutral bucket within a time
limit – if you don’t make it, the earth will be destroyed! You must also keep a ‘neutral circle’ around the waste at all times. If
someone breaches the toxic waste zone, indicated by the circle, enforce an appropriate penalty e.g., loss of limbs (hand
behind back) or function (e.g., blindfolds if a head enters the zone) that lasts for the rest of the game. If a whole person
enters the zone, they die and must then sit out for the rest of the activity. If the bucket tips over the game is over. (The
solution: attach the cords to the bungee loop, guide this over the bucket then lift and move – requires coordination, care
and great teamwork!). For added drama you can put bicarbonate of soda in the neutralisation bucket and use vinegar in the
toxic waste bucket – when one meets the other they cause a chemical reaction and froth up!
Fun Team Building Activities
Common Ground: Divide young people into teams and give them a piece of paper and a pen. Now ask them to work together to
make a list of all the things they have in common – liking the same kind of music or enjoying the same kind of sport. Each item on
the list must be something ALL the group agree on and you can’t list body parts e.g. ‘We all have a nose’ (though you could list
physical similarities like ‘we all have blue eyes’). Put a time limit on the activity and let the groups know when they have 1 minute
left, then 30 seconds, then countdown ten to zero. When time is up, ask each team to read out their list – you can give a small
prize to the group with the longest list. Encourage a discussion about the ways in which we’re all the same and ways in which
we’re all different and how we can all work together.
Diversity Bingo: Use the card below or adapt as you like. Each young person has a copy of the bingo card and must try and find
other young people to help them complete it. When they find a young person who... They must get them to write their name in
the box on their card. The first person to complete their card shouts ‘Bingo!’ and wins the game. Diversity bingo is a great
opportunity for young people to fins out more about each other, learn each other’s names and break down barriers. You can ask
young people to feed back on what they found out and what surprises there were.
Egg & Newspaper Towers (thanks to Loic Flory): Quite simply, the aim is to build the tallest tower that will support an egg! Divide
the group into teams of even numbers and give each team a newspaper, a raw egg and a roll of sticky tape. Each team has 10
minutes to build the tallest tower to support their egg - remember, the egg must be able to sit on top of the tower without falling
off and without being held on by your hands or sticky tape! As leader, you could count down the last 10 seconds or play the music
from ‘Countdown’. Now see which team has the tallest tower and is the winner! In your debrief focus on what it was like to work
as a team, what problems there were and how you solved them. As leader, observe the roles that young people adopt in their
groups (leader, follower, innovator, doer, thinker) and introduce these into the discussion asking young people why they adopted
that role, were they happy with that role or would they have preferred to do something different?

Fun Team Building Activities
•
Cardboard Relay you will need 4 pieces of cardboard about 10 inches square. Divide the group into 2 teams and give 2
pieces of cardboard to each team. Now establish a goal (to a designated point and back) and tell each team that to get there
they can only travel by standing on the pieces of cardboard – they’ll need to place them on the floor in front of them like
stepping stones. The team who completes the relay first is the winner.
•
All Aboard! you will need an old blanket for each group. Start with the blanket spread out and tell the group their aim is to
all fit on the blanket. This should be accomplished quite easily. Congratulate the group and then ask them to fold their
blanket in half. Now repeat the exercise, each time folding the blanket in half. How small a space can everyone in the group
fit onto? The smaller the space, the more the group will need to physically support each other.
•
Monster the objective for each group is to build a monster out of their bodies and then cross the room. The catch is that
they can only have half the number of hands and feet touching the ground as there are people e.g. A group of 12 people
would be allowed to have 12 hands and 12 feet touching the ground. You can make this a race – the first team to cross the
room wins – or you can make it harder by minimising the number of hands and feet to be used (odd numbers are good!). If
any part of the ‘monster’ becomes detached as they cross the area, that team must go back to the start and try again. This is
a great fun team builder encouraging verbal and non-verbal communication.
•
Name Conga great for getting to know everyone’s name. The facilitator starts by introducing themselves then turning to a
member of the group and asking their name e.g. Jane. The facilitator then chants the name in a conga rhythm, encouraging
the rest of the group to join in, clap, stamp etc. Then the facilitator puts his/her hands on Jane’s shoulders and they conga to
another group member. Jane asks the new persons name and puts her hands on their shoulders. The conga line moves off
chanting the new person’s name. This continues until everyone is doing the Name Conga!

•
HULA RELAY You’ll need 2 hula hoops. The aim is to pass these round a circle without breaking hands. Ask the group to
stand in a circle and hold hands. Unlock the joined hands of 2 young people on one side of the circle and place a hula hoop
over their wrists. Repeat on the opposite side of the circle. On the word ‘Go’ the hula hoops need to move around the circle
as quickly as possible and back to the starting point – one travels clockwise and the other anti clockwise. Hands must stay
locked together throughout. Review the process and find out what young people learned about working as a team and if
they think they could now improve their speed. Repeat to see if they can go faster. You could also time the activity using the
stopwatch function on a mobile phone.
MACHINE RACE the aim is quite simple – to construct a model that can race – and win! Get together a wide range of
materials including:
– Cardboard boxes
– Cardboard tubes
– Scissors
– Sticky tape & glue
– Cotton reels
– Elastic bands
– Wooden skewers
You’ll also need something to build a slop to race down. Divide the group into at least 2 teams and ask them to plan and build a
machine to enter into the race. Emphasise team work and co-operation at each stage of the process. Allow about an hour for
planning and building and then hold the race – this could be a simple one off (which machine travels fastest) or a series of
knockouts. Each team is allowed to give their machine one starting push. Now review the process asking young people what they
learnt and how it felt to work together in a team.
Balloon Fun
There are plenty of fun balloon games and you can find more here

wilderdom.com/games/descriptions/gamesballoons.html
Balloons in the Air: Make sure each young person has a balloon. Ask them to write their name on it and then to blow it up. When
you shout ‘go!’ the aim of the game is simply to see who can keep their balloon in the air longest whilst trying to burst other
people’s balloons!
Balloon Stomp: A variation on ‘Balloons in the Air’ is to tie the balloon to your ankle with a piece of string and see who can keep
their balloon intact whilst bursting everybody else’s balloons by stomping on them!
Fire in the Hole: this is a good group balloon activity – give each group member (3-5 young people) a balloon and instruct them to
position them at about belly button level. Now they need to move together so the balloons are held in place. When each group is
ready, shout ‘fire in the hole!’. This is the cue for each group to start squeezing together until all their balloons are burst – you can
make this a race with the first group to succeed winning a prize. If any group is having trouble bursting their balloon invite other
young people to join in!
Balloon Modelling: modelling balloons are cheap, fun and creative. Split the group into teams and give them some modelling
balloons (you may also need to provide balloon pumps). Now call out objects for the teams to model and give them a time limit in
which to create their masterpieces – the more strange and interesting the objects you choose, the better! After each round ask all
the teams to vote for the best model and award a small prize each round and/or keep score and award a prize to the best overall
team.

DESIGN YOUR OWN GAME
Equipment: bats, balls of various sizes, cones, posts,
bean bags, hoops – use your imagination!
Aim: to create your own team game!
Directions: Divide the group into smaller groups and
tell them they’ll be making up their own team game
– they’ll need to think about what equipment they’ll
need, rules, playing area etc. Give the groups 5-10
minutes to think about their idea then give each
group a few minutes to get their equipment. Allow
about 30 minutes of playing time for each group to
get their game up and running and then ask each
group to name their game and demonstrate it! As an
extension, get everyone to try out all the games to
see which is the easiest to pick up, most playable,
clearest rules etc.
Outcome: this is a great activity for encouraging
team work and creativity – plus you’ll have some
fantastic unique games to use in the future!

Fantasy Festival
One of the biggest events of the summer is the Glastonbury Festival. Imagine if you were given the chance to decide the line up
for the biggest music festival of them all! Use this side of the sheet to decide your fantasy festival line up – it’s up to you to decide
which acts are going to appear – you can theme each of your evenings or have a real musical mash up. Maybe there are some
great bands from the past you’d like to have seen live or you want to showcase the best of now. Decide on your top 5 acts for each
evening and list them below. Then flip the page over and design a poster to promote your very own fantasy festival!

The Alphabet Game
The Alphabet Game is very simple to play with just a few rules:
•
Pick a time for each round- for instance, 5 minutes, 10 minutes. Generally, the first round needs more time, but as the
game progresses and the players get better you can shorten the time for following rounds.
•
Ask everyone to write their name, or team name, on the sheet.
•
Explain that there is 1 mark for an answer that more than one person has at the end of the round, but 2 for an answer
that no one else has thought of.
•
Explain that only one answer can be used in each round. For instance, if Glasgow is used for ‘football team’ it can’t be
used in the answer for ‘town’.
•
Pick a letter and then start the round by announcing it, then time the round and shout stop when times up! (Make sure
that you supervise this carefully and don’t allow any over running of time)
•
At end of round, make everyone change their sheets with someone else for marking.
•
Go round in order (or else everyone is shouting at once) asking who each persons answer ON THE SHEET IN FRONT OF
THEM, NOT THEIR OWN ANSWER is. Allocate the scores as you go on, 1 for an answer if it is mentioned more than once. 2
if it is unique.

If there is a dispute over an answer, get the entire group to discuss or argue it and then vote. The final decision rests with
the group, not the quizmaster. Expect dissension over such things as pop groups, famous people, football teams etc!

At end of scoring doublecheck on the 1 or 2 point answers, then add up scores and see who has won…….
