Holiday Giveaways 2022 – Oh Really? by Randolph / Hachette Boardgames
It’s that time of year… holiday gatherings, work parties and other obligatory get-togethers. You can mingle around and have conversations about the weather. Or maybe you avoid conversations by grazing on snacks and Hors d’oeuvres. We encourage people to break the ice with party games!
Oh Really? from Hachette Boardgames is a great example of a party game that helps steer the conversation. We’re pleased that they’ve provided a copy for one of our readers. Think that’s a good icebreaker? Only if you enter are you able to win!
My favorite as a teacher was to put get-to-know-you questions on sheets of paper, wad them up, and have “snowball fights” on day one.
Asking something simple and a little bit silly related to weather and outside activities, such as: “Have you already decided where your are gonna scuba diving?” around summer, or “Who is the first to take a white week?” around Christmas
Basically, I have a few swigs of wine.
Office jokes! If you work together long enough, you have them!
Would you rather is a good one
Can’t wait to brush of few of mine haha
2 truths and a lie is always good
I don’t really have a favorite ice breaker for school/family gatherings. I usually just try to make sure everyone is introduced to everyone.
I usually mention something nice about someone to break the ice.
we like to play games!
Talking about last night’s game is a great icebreaker.
I hate official “ice breakers” to ‘force’ interactions at work.
