Summer

### Intro

As the weather warms up and summer approaches, it’s the perfect time to start planning events that can take advantage of the longer days and sunny skies. Whether you’re organizing a backyard barbecue, a beach party, or a company retreat, incorporating icebreaker activities can help create a fun and welcoming atmosphere for your guests. One such activity is “This or That,” where participants are asked to choose between two options that relate to a particular theme. In this post, I’ll be discussing how you can incorporate summer-themed “This or That” questions into your upcoming event.

How to incorporate Summer themed This or That questions

To incorporate summer-themed “This or That” questions into your event, follow these steps:

1. Choose a format: Decide how you want to present the questions to your guests. You could print out cards with the questions and distribute them randomly, or use a digital platform like Slido or Kahoot to create an interactive experience.

2. Select the questions: Come up with a list of summer-themed “This or That” questions that are relevant to your event and audience. You can find inspiration from online resources, books, or by creating your own questions.

3. Test the questions: Before the event, test out the questions with a small group of people to ensure they are clear, engaging, and appropriate for the audience.

4. Set up the activity: At the event, set up the activity by providing instructions, materials, and any necessary equipment. Encourage participants to form small groups and take turns asking each other the questions.

5. Facilitate the discussion: As the activity progresses, facilitate the discussion by encouraging active listening, follow-up questions, and respectful dialogue. You can also share your own insights and experiences to keep the conversation flowing.

Ideas on different themes of questions

To keep the summer-themed “This or That” questions fresh and engaging, you can explore different themes and categories that are relevant to the season. Here are some ideas:

• Summer activities: Ask questions related to popular summer activities like swimming, hiking, or camping (e.g., “Beach or pool?” or “Tent camping or RV camping?”).
• Travel destinations: Ask questions about different summer travel destinations and experiences (e.g., “Road trip or beach vacation?” or “Campfire or hotel room?”).
• Summer fashion: Ask questions about summer clothing, accessories, and styles (e.g., “Sandals or flip-flops?” or “Sunglasses or hats?”).
• Food and drink: Ask questions about summer food and drink favorites (e.g., “Ice cream or popsicles?” or “BBQ or picnic?”).
• Music and entertainment: Ask questions about summer music festivals, concerts, and movies (e.g., “Outdoor concert or indoor venue?” or “Blockbuster movie or indie film?”).

By incorporating these different themes of questions into your summer-themed icebreaker activity, you can keep your guests engaged and entertained while also fostering a sense of community and shared interest. So why not give it a try and see how it can enhance your next event!
