Recess at Work Day

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

That’s what today is!  Call it team building, call it employee morale, call it professional development-just make sure you call it fun!  It’s time for recess… because everyone deserves a timeout.  

Can’t come up with any creative ideas? How about one of the following:

  • Create a company time capsule

  • Exercise as a group

  • Play some good old outdoor games like tag, jump rope, or Frisbee

  • Do some volunteer/community work

  • Take that team meeting to a coffee shop or an amusement park

  • Visit a local park. Play a little, and brainstorm a lot; that next big idea might occur during recess

  • Take some time today to start learning a foreign language with your co-workers.                                                                                                                                                Makes me wanna hang out with my best friends and discuss the cutest boys in class!  Or play tetherball… does tetherball still exist?  Though, when I think of it now, when I was in school, the tetherball “equipment” was always missing!  Well, happy “Recess at Work Day”… it IS a REAL thing… it’s on the internet!!
