Team Building Activity: Tarp Flip

Cebu Teambuilding Facilitators Network has long used tarp flip, a team building activity classic to promote team creativity and camaraderie.





The best part of this activity is that you can improvise the materials with recycled tarps (or even used rice sacks if you up to it).
