Olympic Inspired Team Building

BizBash recently had a feature on Olympic-inspired Team Building. Thanks, BizBash, for including Teambuilding Unlimited in this great article.

Teambuilding Unlimited offers its "Wacky Mini-Olympic Games." The featured games are Olympic sports with a whimsical twist, like "soccer hockey," which involves mismatched equipment from several different sports, including hockey sticks, lacrosse sticks, and a variety of different types and sizes of balls and gloves. This activity can accommodate between 5 and 300 people.

Backpacks for Kids: Summer Activity Packs

Back to School isn't the only time to participate in a Charity Challenge: Backpacks for Kids. Summer is a great time to put together Busy Activity Packs for Kids.

Recently a TeamBuilding Unlimited client group packed 44 backpacks with games, puzzles, coloring books, paper, pens, paints and a lot more. These backpacks were donated to the Ronald McDonald House in San Francisco. Much needed and appreciated.

TeamBuilding Unlimited will lead your team in this philanthropic team building activity. The event includes competitive  'elementary' quizzes in math, reading, science, p.e., history and a few other subjects. Are you smarter than a 3rd grader? Not always. All of the subject quizzes are customized to include the client, the goals and objectives and theme of the meeting/event.

Teams earn points to choose essential and fun supplies to fill the backpacks. Besides teambuilding skills, a lot of team bonding goes on during this meaningful and fun charity challenge, as your employees relive their early school years through playing children's games, taking quizzes, and filling the backpacks!

TeamBuilding Unlimited provides all the supplies, backpacks, games, quizzes and prizes. Your group supplies the skills and energy. Length and complexity customized to client timeline. 

What a win-win team event!

THE CUPCAKE CHALLENGE

Who doesn't love to decorate cupcakes?  High above San Francisco-- on the 46th floor of the hotel during a large convention--150 spouses participated in the Cupcake Decorating Challenge! Armed with piping bags and frosting, the teams decorated over 500 cupcakes. Part of the challenge was to box the cupcakes, so they could be given to two charitable organizations. What a fun event. A beautiful day, sweet frosting and lots of decorating materials.

TeamBuilding Unlimited designed this program which included tips and techniques and pastry chefs! Usually TBU includes the building of a display in the event, but not this time, since the group was more concentrated on how many cupcakes could be decorated in the allotted time in order to have a bigger donation. It was a win-win event for everyone, especially the children who received the cupcakes!

Want to do the Cupcake Challenge for your next Team Building event?  Contact TeamBuilding Unlimited. This fun interactive and delicious activity capitalizes on your team's creativity and sweet tooth. It's great before or after a meal and can be incorporated into your lunch, dinner or afternoon teambuilding treat. 

Teams are challenged to Decorate their Cupcakes so that they symbolize the team itself, the company, the theme of the meeting, their positions at the company, or another theme.
In addition each team will be given materials to create a "DISPLAY" in which they'll be able to stack their treats into showpieces. Prizes will be given to best overall display!

Each team will be given Cupcakes and a variety of cupcake design supplies, tools and assorted decorating materials, so they can turn their concept into reality. After the cupcakes are designed, decorated and displayed, each team will create a "commercial" to present their cupcakes to the entire group.

And last but not least, participants will enjoy their creations.
