Resources Needed – one frisbee (soft frisbees are more safety conscious)
Prior to the session prepare a frisbee by writing questions around the edge of the disc (as shown in the free download). Of course you can fit on as many questions as you like and these can be about anything of use to you.
During the training session, explain to the participants that you will be throwing the Frisbee out to one of them. When the person it is thrown to (or the one that it goes towards!) catches it, they must answer the question that is closest to or under their thumb.
When they have answered the question to everyone’s satisfaction, they can choose the next person to fling the Frisbee to and the activity continues.
Bring the activity to a close once everyone has had a chance to answer a question.
Variation – of course this icebreaker can be used as an energiser as well and with a clever use of different questions you can really challenge participants on anything that benefits the training.
The activity is also quite useful for exploring feelings as well as testing knowledge. It’s an icebreaker with no barriers!
We’ve even used it on hot sunny days when the office environment is getting too stuffy and everyone wants to get some outside time.
