Invisible
Object Icebreaker.
This good icebreaker will appeal to
younger,
creative groups.
This
activity works for three or more people. The larger your group, the
more the object will change. Age is not afactor, but generally this
activity is a hit with kids 8-12. Kids 10 years old to 100,
and all participate together. When you are wondering how to plan party
activities that will get people to pay attention this will be a good
icebreaker.
Materials required:
One invisible imaginary object
The Set-up:
Gather everyone comfortably, where they can see the person working with
the object. Seated on the floor works for younger
participants, while adults may prefer to sit in chairs. An imaginary,
invisible object is passed from one person to the next. The person
taking the object, receives it and bends, beats, folds, and manipulates
it into something completely different before passing it to the next
person.
Do the Invisible Object Icebreaker
The first person
pretends to hold an object. Without speaking, he/she pantomimes using
the object in a way that others can guess what it is. When someone
correctly gusses what the object is, it is passed to the next person.
For example the first person may pantomime unwrapping a stick of gum,
putting it in their mouth and chewing it. When someone guesses that it
is gum, he takes it out of his mouth, stretches is out, rolls it into a
ball and places it in the palm of the next person's hand. She takes it
and stretches, bends, folds, and pounds it, until it is a completely
different object. For example, a cowboy hat. When someone correctly
guesses what it is, she takes off the imaginary cowboy hat and places
it on the head of the next person. The object continues around the
room, until it reaches the first person again. The last person folds it
into smaller and smaller shape, until it is small enough to put in his
pocket, and the activity ends.
This is a good icebreaker to get people's creative
juices flowing.
