10+ Team Building Activities for Adults and Kids

Team building activities or games develop communication, coordination, cooperation and team spirit amongst people. Let’s have a look at some interesting corporate games that can be played within adults and kids.

Tennis Ball Transfer

This requires a large metal washer and a tennis ball for each group. The groups have to hold the strings and balance a tennis ball on the washer while walking and moving towards a plastic cup a distance away. Once the team successfully reaches the cup without dropping the ball, they have to work together to figure out how to get the ball into the cup without touching either one.

Tent Pole Game

Great Activity to do with older kids. Everyone in the group has to keep 2 fingers on the tent pole at all times. The goal is to bring the pole off the ground to a certain height without anyone taking their fingers off the pole. (Could go from a certain height then to the ground.) If someone’s finger comes off, the group must re-start.
