egg drop games fun building activityegg drop games fun building activity

A classic team building game, it consists of trying to drop an egg without breaking it. Divide your collaborators into teams, then give them an egg and some objects. The goal of the game is to build some sort of contraption around the egg so that it doesn’t break when dropped from above (the higher it is placed, the better).

To create it, you can use straws, paper towels, tape, rubber bands and newspapers. Players will have 15 minutes to wrap the egg before dropping it from a certain height. The team whose egg remains intact wins.

Why?  To learn how to solve problems, together, as a team.

Where?  In the office.

Tip: Give extra points to the most creative contraption, even if it doesn’t protect the egg the best. It’s important to reward creativity

Benefits: Collaboration, creative problem solving.
