TEAM BUILDING
Down to One

Work as a team to get down to one person
To eliminate people/spots, one must hop over the other
You cannot move spots unless you have someone to hop over.
Magic Carpet
Needs: Tarp
All participants must stand on the top of the tarp
As a team, work together to flip over the tarp without anyone stepping off of it.
Make it harder: Fold the tarp into smaller sizes
Hot Chocolate River
Needs: Paper Plates, or any sort of markers Setup a “river” with two markers (rope, string)
Have team start on one side of the river, markers in hand
They must use markers to get across the river, placing as they go
If any team member takes foot off of marker, marker is swept away by river, cannot be used
Team must get to the other side of the river
Focus Ring
Needs: Tape, string, ball
Tie strings around tape, about 3ft in length
Place ball in center of tape roll
Team must use strings to pickup the ball in tape roll and take it from one place to another without touching the ball.
If ball falls, team must start at beginning
Make it harder: Blindfold team with only one who can see and communicate
