Blanket Name Game
Summary:
A great get-to-know-you name identification ice breaker that can get extremely funny! Two people stand facing each other with a large blanket in between them. The blanket drops, and the first player to correctly identify the other player wins the team ice breaker. This ice breaker is recommended for eight to twenty players of all ages. Materials Required: Blanket. Recommended Setting: Indoors or outside.
Instructions:
The Blanket Name Game is a simple name recognition/identification game. Go around the room and make introductions (share names and other information such as your occupation, age, etc. if so desired. Separate into two groups and have two people hold a large, thick blanket separating the two groups so that neither group can see the other. When the blanket drops, the first person to correctly call out the name of the other group’s designated person wins the round (which typically means the loser of the round must leave the game, though if you prefer to avoid ‘elimination’ then you don’t have to do this). The group may strike different funny poses to distract the attention of other group’s person. As a variation, several people may be facing the other group with one person being chosen to call out the information of the other group’s people.
