Let’s get started.
See a Comedian
It’s up to you when it comes to deciding whether to go to see the comedian or hire one to come to your location. People have found lots of fun from both options. Have some drinks and laugh! Now is a great time to unwind. There are corporate comedians who keep topics business-related and poke fun at the working environment. We recommend them and they will be hilarious without being offensive or controversial.
Participate in an Escape Room
Have you ever been to one of these? They are totally fun. If you aren’t familiar with escape rooms, the way that they work is you are put into a room as a group with doors that don’t open until you “solve” the room. There are clues hidden in places and it is your job as a team to collaborate to figure everything out. There is a time limit that you have so it’s important to keep the pace up.
Beyond a sense of accomplishment, there are other great parts of escape rooms, particularly in a corporate context. The success of escape rooms comes from the necessary teamwork to solve the puzzles from clues. In this way, employees can get together in non-work settings to strengthen their mental resources and bond. There are also frequent plot twists that create a fun sense of immersion and drama in the escape room.
Go to an Arcade
Sound cheesy? It’s not! Arcades are a great throwback. Plus, you won’t need to hire a babysitter that day so the young ones can come with you. Life is pretty complicated so why not spend some time doing things that are easy?
Arcade games don’t take long at all to learn. They create a strong sense of nostalgia and bring out your inner child. There are other things in typical arcades such as laser tag and bowling that can also be played. Just have a blast and forget about work.
Murder Mystery Night
A murder mystery party is an adult event where people typically dress up as characters in a specific era and then try to solve a fictitious murder. Just like participating in an escape room, murder mysteries require teamwork among the group to find out who the murderer is.
When done right, this is so much fun. Some people really get into their characters. It’s really important to have a theme so it’s more immersive. Everyone will be socializing with people they might not talk to ordinarily. Your character might be given some secrets that you will have to keep to yourself. Try it out!
Paintball
Now this one is just a tiny bit more extreme due to the fact that you can get some bruising from paintballs. There are places you can go that use lower-velocity paintball guns and softer paintballs. These places also typically offer padded clothing so there is little shock at all that comes from being hit.
Paintball is all about being stealthy and gives a great adrenaline rush. If put into teams, it requires teamwork, focus, and determination to win. You have to be quick to hit others and stay alert of the space around you so that you don’t get hit.
Go to a Theme Park
This is just self-explanatory. Theme parks are notoriously fun for all ages. The activities have so much variety so you never get bored. The most popular rides are the scary ones like rollercoasters and haunted attractions.
The excitement will outshine your fear! We promise. Bring your spouse along and make a day of it. The only negative part is that there are usually lines. However, some theme parks allow themselves to be rented for the day or a number of hours so that the lines are gone for your group.
After hearing all this, surely you need a smiley face stress ball. Get funny-face stress balls here.
