Paper straw races! Here is an exercise that will bring out the “kid at heart” from your meeting attendees. I think almost everyone at one point in time has played with their paper straw wrappers at a restaurant, fighting the urge to shoot the wrapper at the person seated across the table.
Divide the group into 3 or 4 teams. Draw a starting line. Give each team a cup full of straws with paper wrappers. Tear off one end. The teams compete with one team member representing the team one at a time. The trick is to blow the straw and shoot the paper the farthest. The team who gets it the farthest gets 5 points, the second farthest, 3 point, third farthest 1 point. Keep going in rounds until everyone has had a turn.
