Great Group Games: 175 Boredom-Busting, Zero-Prep Team Builders for All Ages

Perfect for classrooms, retreats, advisory groups and teams, these games help people feel welcome, gently disband group-busting cliques, and turn participants into friends who can count on each other. Each game includes details on timing, supplies, set up, suggested group size, game tips, and reflection questions. The games are far from mindless. Games like “Tiny Teach,” “Common Ground,” and “The Winding Road” challenge participants to think. Best of all, the activities require zero to very little preparation. They work for small or large groups, adults or teens and can be done anywhere. You’ll make every moment meaningful and every game great!   Search Institute Press, 2007.
