Here’s a tip for a fun and educational ice breaker. As everyone enters the room, hand them a blank name tag (sticker type). Ask them to write their first name at the top, then list 3 interesting things about themselves (in bullet format). This often stops them dead in their tracks, so give them a few examples. Perhaps they are the parent of triplets, a former Navy Seal or they spend every spare moment building furniture. This gets the group focused and thinking. Ask the participants to put their completed name tags on. Start the class, pair them up for a 3-4 minute discussion, then ask each person to introduce their partner. Stand back and watch the creativity begin!
