Stand Up

Stand Up is an ice breaker game for large groups. It is best played at the beginning of the party or meeting to break the ice and let people get to know each other better.

Age: All ages

No. of players: Large groups

Equipment: List of questions

Time: 5+ minutes

Aim: To have fun while getting to know each other better.

This is very easy to play although you may need to be selective about which questions you ask your group if some people are sensitive to personal questions.

1. Players are seated, either in a circle or in rows, depending on the party or meeting.

2. The Leader asks a series of questions and players stand up if the statement applies to them. Players then sit down ready for the next question.
