  • An activity in which participants collect a few pictures on a cell phone.

Use it to . . .
  • Get smaller teams working together and moving around physically.

Best group size . . .
  • Up to about 20.

Materials you’ll need . . .
  • A short list of items to be photographed.

  • Several members of the group must have cell phones that can take pictures.

  • A small prize for the winning team.

Here’s how . . .
  1. Divide the group into teams of four to six members.

  2. Make sure each team has at least one cell phone that can take pictures.

  3. Allow 5 minutes to take pictures of the items on their list.

  4. The first team to take all the pictures wins a small prize.

For example . . .
  • A picture of someone jumping.

  • A picture of a chair balancing some way other than on its four legs.

  • A picture of water.

  • A picture of three items that begin with the letter B.

Tips for success . . .
  • None of a team’s pictures can be of its own teammates or items that it owns.

  • Keep the list short (four to eight items) for a quick activity.

  • Post the list on a flip chart rather than making copies to distribute.

Try these variations . . .
  • Make the list include people’s names in the group.

  • Make it more difficult by requiring the pictures be taken in order.
