1. Virtual Cocktail Classes – Mixology is trending up in popularity
Many companies are using virtual team building activities such as cocktail classes to help their remote teams connect, bond, and have a bit of fun. But how does a virtual team building activity such as a virtual cocktail class actually work?
What is a virtual cocktail class and how does it work?
A virtual mixologist will teach your team how to make simple cocktails with ingredients that you can either easily find at home or get in the grocery store. This is an especially great option for late-night or international teams who want to get together virtually and share a few laughs. For instance, we compose a list of cocktails that we want to make virtually and break it down to the ingredients. The virtual cocktail class also includes a Gift Box that contains many of the ingredients (except alcohol!) and also things like jiggers, mugs and shakers as well as a step-by-step guide to make them.
2. Virtual Escape Rooms – Solve puzzles by working together
Escape rooms are becoming more popular as virtual team building activities because they help teams work together better. In virtual escape room games, your team is put in an online environment with puzzles, riddles and different challenges. A story line behind the game helps increase engagement, and teams must work together to solve the puzzles in order to progress.
Team battles in virtual escape rooms
Improving teamwork among colleagues can also be a challenge – so why not have a few team battles in your virtual Escape Rooms? The goal is to crack the final code to win the battle. You must work together as a team because the riddles can be very difficult.
