Christmas is the best time of year to treat your team some team building fun. With Christmas parties and in office Kris Kringle games around the corner, the office already feels a little closer than usual. Take advantage of the bonding nature of Christmas and give your team a fantastic team building experience. Here are some of our best team building activities that make for great Christmas inspired games.<\/p>\n

1. Work up a sweat with mission possible team building race<\/h2>\n

The weather is colder, the days are shorter and if you are anything like us \u2013 you might be eating a little more than the doctor ordered around this time of year. If you want to do something fun for your team that doesn\u2019t involve gorging on more Turkey and Christmas Pudding then Mission Possible<\/a>, an amazing race style competition is the activity for your team. Armed with an SMS card, binoculars and a compass, you will feel like the real deal in this fast-paced and fun team building activity. Of course, once you\u2019ve raced around the city you will have burned off the calories for that Christmas dinner party\u2026 right?<\/p>\n

2. Taste the festive flavours in whisky wisdom<\/h2>\n

Do you want to reward your team for all the hard work they\u2019ve done this year? Well, give them some Whisky Wisdom<\/a>, a fun team building game, where teams try and identify the correct aroma profiles of some of the most popular whisky brands in the world. Whisky tasting is a great way to end a long conference or day of team building events. Everyone is acquainted, comfortable and ready to nurse a nice glass of whisky (or two). It will help educate your team on what whisky to buy as presents for friends and family and is just a lovely way to wind down and bond with your team.<\/p>\n

3. Make your favourite Christmas Hollywood movie in Hollywood challenge<\/h2>\n

Recreate your favourite Hollywood moments with your team in a special Christmas edition of the team building favourite Hollywood Challenge<\/a>. Act out a scene from a favourite romcom like Love Actually<\/em>, or the action-packed Die Hard<\/em>, get a little creepy with The Nightmare Before Christmas<\/em> or a bit naughty with Bad Santa<\/em> – The options are endless! Thank god for Hollywood\u2019s obsession with Christmas because your team get to enjoy all the fun of recreating these iconic scenes. Despite being a hoot, filmmaking can be quite technically tricky and always a huge team effort; remember communication is key! Why not combine Hollywood Challenge with your annual Christmas party dinner and have a screening of your works? We guarantee it will be hilarious.<\/p>\n

4. Experience the gift of giving in toy factory<\/h2>\n

Christmas isn\u2019t all about receiving presents; it\u2019s about giving them too. Toy Factory<\/a> is a beautiful team building activity that incorporates CSR elements. Teams handcraft wooden toys for a charitable organization of your companies choosing. These toys are then given to disadvantaged children, a truly touching activity that not only tests the communication, speed and skill of your team members but also gives them a warm fuzzy feeling inside. After all isn\u2019t that what Christmas is all about?<\/p>\n
