There are very many activities that can be practiced in team building events Road Map game being another one of them. In this game people are divide into groups of about two to eight depending on the number of people attending the event. Each group is given a map of a specific area. The groups are then supposed to plan a vacation that will work within the parameters given in the map. The group is told what they have for the trip in terms of amount of money, car model, size of the car tank, amount of time they have and any other thing that might be applicable.

The groups should write down their travel plans because in case any group runs out of the things they were given for the trip they are automatically disqualified. The group that did the most with what they had is awarded as well as those that had the most exhausting trip and any other awards you may come up with. The groups can discus each others trip and learn interesting things.

Group Favorites is another game that is meant to increase interaction among the group members as well as learn commonalties among them. In this game surveys are supposed to be conducted among the group members where they are then collected and the answers tallied up. A list is made of the top three to five answers for each of the questions and they are ranked in order of popularity. The groups are at this point broken into even numbers from four to ten people.

Form two rows of chairs facing each other and two of the groups are to occupy them. One participant from each group comes in front and faces each other with a tennis ball and should fight for it. A chalkboard is then placed where everyone can see it with numbers one to six of the top answers on it. The first person to grab the tennis ball will be asked to answer the first question. If one of the group members grabs the ball early it is up to him/her to give you the answer before continuing reading.

When someone gives an answer that is not on the list it should be written beside the corresponding number. If the person guesses the highest answer on the list he/she gets to choose if his/her team will continue play or pass. However if he/she does not guess the highest answer the other player gets a turn. Each team now gets three strikes each for wrong answers. The team currently playing is given the chance to guess any remaining answers that might be on the board and each participant should be given a turn.

If a team fills all their blanks they are winners of that round. However, if the opposing team can guess any of the answers that are remaining they will win that round. This is supposed to go on for several rounds with different teams facing each other. The survey questions can include things like favorite restaurants, favorite celebrity, color of your toothbrush, favorite activity, favorite music, type of car you drive and many others that one will wish to include.
