Team Builders

Big Bad Wolf

Supplies: LOTS of newspaper and LOTS of tape.

Wanna see how well your group does building something together? Try this fun exercise.

Divide students into teams of 4-6. Give each team enough newspaper and tape to build a newspaper shelter of some kind. It must be big enough to get three team members inside. Set a time limit on how long you want to give teams to work on the project.

The Big Bad Wolf (youth leader) then attempts to blow the shelter down. Award prize to the best construction job.

Afterward, have a giant paper fight.

    I really love this game. Kids have to work together to build the shelters. This really is a great team-builder as well.

    Tied this game into building your house upon the Rock. Kids had a blast and got the point!
