Players move randomly through the space without making physical contact. The leader calls out a number and players gather into groups of that number. Players make physical contact with every other person in their group. The leader calls, “Mingle,” and all players resume moving randomly through the space. Different numbers continue to be called.
Paired players face each other. One is the leader, the other the follower. The follower reflects the moves of the leader. After a while, they switch who leads and who follows.

Players mingle as though they were guests at a party. When players encounter each other, they introduce themselves with a fictional first and last name. There is a brief conversation, then players move on to meet someone else. After five minutes of mingling, players see how many character names they can remember.
Say a random word. Then say words or phrases that are all related to the first word. Track how many words or phrases are generated in one minute.
Players stand in a circle. A theme word is given, then players call out words related to the theme word.
The president stands in the middle, with a bodyguard on either side, one in front and another behind. The bodyguard in front faces the president, all others face the same direction as the president. The president marches rhythmically, and all bodyguards do the same. As the president marches forward or backward, the bodyguards maintain their relative positions. When the president makes 90- and 180-degree turns, the bodyguards face the same direction, with the exception of bodyguard who is now in front, who faces the president. The president marches around with the bodyguards holding tight formation. Rotate players through so each has the opportunity to be president.
While listening to another player (or talk radio or a podcast), repeat the words that are spoken a few seconds after they’ve been said.
