ACTIVITY - Minefield
~ The participants are asked to blindfold one team member.
~ Then create a ‘minefield’ of obstacles is created
~ You may only use specified communication techniques
(left, right, forward, & backwards)

~ Participants must guide the blindfolded person through the ‘minefield’

This is great for enhancing communication skills and building trust.

ACTIVITY - Human Knot
This brain teaser depends heavily on how well everyone works together.

● Participants need to stand in a circle, shoulder to shoulder.

● Then place their right hand in the hand of someone standing across the circle from them.

● Then place their left hand in the hand of a different person

● Then try to untangle without breaking the chain, if broken they must start again.

This is a great problem solving and communication activity.
