Two Truths and a Lie
Have all the teens sit in a circle and select one teen to go first. Each teen will give two facts about themselves and a lie. All other teens must decide which one of the statements the teen said is false. This game works perfectly as an icebreaker activity.
Blindfolded Obstacle Course
Make an obstacle course using chairs, tables, ropes, tires and strings. Players will have to go over and under objects in the course. Divide the teens into two even groups and select a team captain. All players except the team captain put a blindfold on. The object of the game is for the team captain to verbally walk his team through the obstacle course. He must tell his teammates how to walk through the course one at a time. He can only call out commands and cannot touch his teammates. The first team through the obstacle course, or the team with the fastest time, wins the game.
Wall Climb
Create a 10-foot wall out of wood for the teens to climb over. The walls should not have any holes or ropes for the teens to use to get over it. The teens must work together to get over the wall. The activity is not over until all team members have made it from one side to the other. If you make two walls, you can divide the teens up into teams and have a race to see which team can make it over their wall first.
Board Walk
Split the teens into two even teams of 10 and give each team two 2x4 boards that are approximately seven feet long. Make a start line and finish line about 50 feet apart. The teens must stand on the start line on top of one of the boards. The teens will use these two boards to get from the start line to the finish line; however, their feet cannot touch the ground at any time. If any of their feet touch the ground, that team must start over at the starting line. Teens must stay on the two boards given to their team throughout the entire activity. The first team to make it to the finish line wins the game.
