Funny Games and Activities for Groups
This icebreaker game can be played by all age-groups. Write the names of a few animals on pieces of paper. The size of the group decides the number of slips you would require. Fold the slips and put them in a cookie jar. Each participant takes a slip. The participants imitate the sound of the animal mentioned on their slips and form a group with people having the slip of the same animal. This activity has to be performed without talking and is a fun way to get acquainted.
The members of the group stand in a single row. Each person places his head on the back of the person who is in front of him. This game starts from the last person. He has to say “Ha-ha, He-he”. The next person says “Ha-ha, Ha-ha, He-he, He-he” and so on. The aim of this game is to get all the members of the group to say this without breaking into spasms of laughter. Laughter is infectious, and you can imagine the scene if even one of them starts laughing.
A cutout of the heart is required for this funny activity. Ask the participants to form a circle. The first participant says “I love pastries” and he passes the heart to the next person, who will say “I love baseball” and so on. The participants are given only a couple of seconds. The game is over when the participants can think of nothing to say. Wrong and similar answers are not allowed.
This game is played by people (mostly women) of all ages. The group members sit in a circle. One of the members sits on the lap of another member and asks, “Do you love your neighbor?” If the answer is “yes”, he/she moves onto the next person. If the answer is “no”, then he/she can ask “Then who do you love?” For instance, if the answer is “People who wear blue shirts”; all the people wearing blue shirts exchange their seats. In the mean time, the person who is asking the question tries to get a seat for himself. The person who is left without a seat is the one who will be asking the question next.
