A team-building activity your Dream Team will love.
The Helium Stick Activity is a simple, powerful, fun way to reinforce the value of teamwork. And to provide a jumping off point to discuss issues of teamwork and leadership.
The “stick” is actually a series of corded poles that fold up for easy storage. When extended fully, it’s 10 feet long.
Simply have the group form two lines with index fingers extended. Place the stick on their fingers and ask them to lower it to the ground. They will be amazed by how difficult this actually is. The stick seems to want to move upward.
The secret to the Helium Stick Activity is that the stick does not contain helium. The collective upwards pressure created by everyone’s fingers tends to be greater than the weight of the stick. As a result, the more a group tries, the more the stick tends to “float” upwards.
After much laughter, your group will lower the Helium Stick to the ground and be ready for a teambuilding discussion. Some important processing questions are:
The Helium Stick Activity is recommended for 6 to 12 players. Each pack includes folding stick, storage bag, and facilitation notes.
$36.95/ea.
Pipeline is a fast-paced activity that enhances team cooperation, communication, problem-solving, and planning.
Each participant receives a short length of half pipe. The group must move a ball down the pipes from the starting point to the finish line. Success requires communication, creativity, and teamwork.
The game can be used over and over again with a range of variations such as:
The Pipeline Activity is recommended for 6 to 12 players. Each pack includes 12 half-pipes, three balls, storage bag, and facilitation notes.
$39.95/ea.
