Ice breaker introduction games

Icebreaker introduction games are a great way to help people get to know each other in a fun and relaxed way. Here are some popular icebreaker introduction games:

  1. Two Truths and a Lie: Each person tells two true statements about themselves and one false statement. The others have to guess which one is the lie.
  2. Human Bingo: Create bingo cards with different traits, characteristics, or interests (e.g. "has traveled to another country", "speaks more than one language", etc.). Each person needs to find someone who fits each of the characteristics and get them to sign the corresponding square.
  3. The Name Game: Have each person introduce themselves and share a unique fact about themselves that starts with the same letter as their name (e.g. "I'm Sarah and I love sailing").
  4. Scavenger Hunt: Create a list of items or challenges that people need to complete (e.g. "find someone wearing the same color shirt as you", "take a photo with someone who has the same birthday as you", etc.).
  5. Would You Rather: Present two difficult choices and ask each person which one they would prefer (e.g. "would you rather be able to fly or be able to breathe underwater?").
  6. Show and Tell: Ask each person to bring an object that represents something about themselves (e.g. a favorite book, a photo, a memento, etc.) and share the story behind it.
  7. Word Association Game: Have each person write down a word that describes themselves, then ask each person to explain why they chose that word.
  8. The One-Word Game: Ask each person to come up with a word that describes themselves, then ask each person to explain why they chose that word.
  9. Interview Game: Pair people up and have them interview each other for 2-3 minutes, then ask each person to share one interesting thing they learned about their partner.
  10. Human Knot: Have each person stand in a circle and put their hands in the center. Each person should grab the hand of someone across from them, not next to them. Then, they need to work together to untangle themselves without letting go of each other's hands.
  11. The Human Web: Similar to the Human Knot, but instead of grabbing hands, each person should grab the shoulder or arm of someone across from them.
  12. Mission Impossible: Divide the group into small teams and give them a seemingly impossible task to complete (e.g. "build a bridge with only straws and tape", "create a song using only sounds from nature", etc.).
  13. The Human Chain: Have each person stand in a circle and hold hands. Then, ask each person to introduce themselves and share something interesting about themselves. After each person has shared, the chain should be broken and reformed with new people holding hands.
  14. The Game of Questions: Prepare a set of questions in advance (e.g. "what's your favorite hobby?", "what's the best book you've read recently?", etc.). Each person should answer the questions, then ask the next person in the circle a question.
  15. The Mingle Game: Divide the group into small teams and give each team a set of questions or challenges to complete (e.g. "find someone who has the same favorite food as you", "take a photo with someone who has the same birthday as you", etc.).

Remember to keep the games light-hearted and fun, and make sure they're inclusive and respectful of all participants.
