October Activity Uploads

playmeo is staring down its target of 500+ activities uploaded to its online database by the end of the year. We have just 12 more to go…

With another big month behind us, I’m excited to share a glimpse of some of the latest activities you can discover and start leading with your groups today.

Hot Box

When I think of this fun, fast-paced group initiative I think of my friend and mentor Karl Rohnke. I have vivid memories of him inventing this on a program I was co-facilitating with him in North America. If you’re familiar with Turnstyles, then you’re going to love Hot Box. It involves a lot more people at the same time and is accomplished much quicker than the original. If you need a high-energy, quick problem-solving exercise for a large group, this is it.

Affirming Thoughts

This is another in a long line of health & wellness activities contributed by Lisa Laura, one of our wonderful playmeo team members. Health and well-being is Lisa’s thing, and Affirming Thoughts is the latest exercise she offers to help you develop and promote healthy and supportive relationships. If you’re looking for a set of guided meditations in which your group is feeling really good about themselves at the end, give this one a whirl.

Blind Name-Tag

As they say, necessity is the mother of creativity. This is exactly the source of this latest ice-breaking name game that can be played in person, but especially with virtual gatherings. All you need is paper and markers and a minute or two. Breaking the ice and learning some names may be one of your objectives, but you will also have the opportunity to facilitate a range of teachable moments such as risk-taking, perspectives, diversity and willingness to fail.

Dolphin Golf

I have been wanting to get this fun, high energy group game uploaded for years. It’s finally here. You’ll need to get your hands on a set of rubber deck rings, the type that you can sometimes find in pet stores as dog toys. Divide your group into small teams of 3 or 4 people, demonstrate how dolphins play golf, and then let ’em loose. I promise you will quickly raise the heartbeats of your group in no time.

Oh, and there’s more activity uploads from where these came from. Click the button below to see all of the latest and greatest fun group games & activities on offer.
