4 Weird but Effective Team-Building Activities for Remote Teams

Welcome to REMOTivatEd – your go-to newsletter for thriving while working from home!

Today, we’re sharing 4 unique team-building activities that are fun, a little weird, and way better than awkward Zoom icebreakers.

1. "Show Me Your Fridge" Challenge

• Everyone takes a picture of the inside of their fridge (or just describes it).

• Others try to guess their personality based on its contents.

• Great for casual conversation and unexpected insights.

2. Mystery Sound Game

• Team members record a random sound from their home.

• Others have to guess what it is.

• Bonus points for the weirdest or hardest-to-guess sound.

3. Two Truths and a Lie (Slack Edition)

• Played over Slack or in a call.

• One person shares three statements; others guess the lie.

• Encourage bizarre but true facts.

4. Background Storytelling Challenge

• Pick a random virtual background and make up a wild backstory about why you're there.

• Example: A medieval castle? You’re the long-lost heir. Outer space? You got abducted but became CEO of an alien startup.

• Great for sparking creativity.

Replay and let me know if you give any of these a try! It’s good to stay connected to your team!
