Sun and Suncream

Objectives

  • To get energized
  • To break the ice
  • To get to know each other

Scenario

Ask the participants to stand and to choose in their minds two persons from the group. One they will consider as their sun and another one as their sun cream. They keep this in mind and do not express it to the others. Once everyone has made their choice, the participants have to position themselves in order to be protected from the sun by the sun cream, meaning that the person they have chosen as their sun cream has to be positioned between them and the person they designated as their sun. When the facilitator announces that the time is over, everyone freezes. The facilitator then asks some of the players if they are protected or not, and also to reveal who was the sun and the sun cream. Propose several rounds so that the players get energized.

Variations

This game can be divided in different steps, small games, to form a sequence:

  • For example, start with a game of the same principle but in which all the players are standing in a circle. Ask each player to think of one person and at the announcement of the signal, to go around this person and return to his/her place in the circle.
  • Then make the game evolve by adding the following instruction: each player must think of two different persons. When the facilitator gives the signal the player must turn around these two persons by forming an eight and then return to his/her place in the circle.

The sun and sun cream game (detailed before) can be proposed after as a closure of the sequence.
