Group Lap Sit

Type: Icebreaker

Approximate Time: 15 minutes

Activity: Have participants stand in a circle. Each participant will turn and face the person to their right. Explain to them that the object is for the entire group to "sit" down at the same time on the lap behind them without falling. Have a facilitator or the group count off to start the activity. An added challenge would be for them to then stand back up as a group.

Props: None

Potential Processing Outcomes: Teamwork, trust, communication

Instructor Note: Make sure the group has the maturity to perform this icebreaker because spotting and safety is critical to the success of this activity.  If the group isn’t mature enough, don’t introduce them to this activity. You will also need to assess the groups' level of spacial comfort.
