Who Am I is a simple get-to-know-you icebreaker that you can play to get participants to quickly learn about each other. It’s used in groups where participants are generally strangers.
Team Size
6 or more
Materials Required
Four blank cards per person
One pen per person
Time Required
15 minutes
Instructions
Participants are to write down four facts about themselves, one on each card.
The facilitator then collects the cards from the participants and shuffles them.
A random set of four cards is then handed back to each participant.
When the time begins, each participant has to go around to return the cards to whom it belongs.
To do so, participants have to go around asking each other questions that will reveal if a given card belongs to them.
The game ends when every participant has their own set of four cards.
