How to Play Mingle Icebreaker

This is an easy icebreaker which requires no materials or prep.

Instructions 

  • Designate one person as the game leader.
  • When the game leader tells them to start, they all walk around muttering “mingle, mingle, mingle, “ etc.
  • The leader shouts out a number.
  • Everyone must arrange themselves into groups of that number. For example, if the number was four, everyone must make groups of four.
  • Anyone not in a group of the appropriate number is out.
  • Continue playing until you are left with just two people.

Notes

If there are 9 people and the leader chooses 3, everyone will have a group. That is OK. Just choose something which won’t work out evenly next time.
