Ice Breakers are a great way to get people to learn each others names, find out interesting things about one another, and help people begin new relationships.
Aside from name games, ice breakers provide a way to establish common ground between participants, get everyone moving, and create a inviting environment.
These type of activities are especially important on the first day of camp - in fact, leading fun ice breakers helps counselors set ground rules, ease camper anxiety, and start the day off on the right foot.
