Play is a powerful tool for creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration. In this hands-on session, we’ll explore Purposeful Play—structured, yet playful activities that unlock fresh ideas, build trust, and energize teams.

Participants will engage in three types of play: 1- Visual Play: Experience Mindflower's expanded version of a fan-favorite squiggle drawing activity to explore collaboration and creativity. 2- Kinesthetic Play: Using the Weird Idea Generator & Story Cubes we will rapidly prototype new ideas through hands-on problem-solving. 3- Verbal Play: Improv-style games that build adaptability, listening skills, and collaboration.

By the end of the session, facilitators, coaches, and consultants will walk away with play-based techniques they can use to break through creative blocks, build connection, and enhance engagement in their own work.

This workshop is perfect for those looking to add joy, movement, and fresh thinking to their facilitation toolkit—while experiencing the power of play firsthand.
