How Do You Miro? Holiday Team Building Activities 🎄🎁

Hi everyone

My name is Junbong Ha or go by JB, working as a Business Analyst at SGI. It is rough times for everyone but I am enjoying working remotely and pretty happy to have an excuse to use Miro more than ever. I am almost addicted to Miro thesedays with a good excuse but I was the one who introduced the Miro to our team so I should make a good use of it and be a some kind of frontier i guess.  

For the holiday team building, I have created multiple team building board and this time I decided to have some fun with mini-games.

• This board has 4 mini games and each game is well-known game but adapted into Miro.
• It can be played by 2 teams and can have a winner team but it has a game to play individually so there can be a only one winner at the end.
• It has a scoreboard to easy track of score for individual/teams.
• Each game has instruction and navigation link to other game/scordboard.
• Each game is modulaized so you can re use the a mini game in another board separately. 
• Each game is easy to modify to edit questions or replace the contents. 
• It is also fun exploring slowly by dragging to spot animals and holiday decorations. 

Below is some screenshots. Hope you enjoy my board and have an great holiday!

Hi all, I’m Kristin Leitch and I focus on Templates and Miroverse here at Miro. 

Need inspiration for your remote end-of-year party? You’re in the right place.

As the holidays approach, now is the perfect time to bring your team together. Playing a holiday-inspired team activity can bring your team together, no matter how far apart they are. So why not start your next team meeting with a festive cook off in the Virtual Holiday Kitchen?

Prep: 0 minutes

Baking time: 5-15 minutes

Serves: 12 but easily add more

Directions:

• Prep your decoration station by giving your gingerbread a name.
• Dive into Santa’s Pantry to test your favourite toppings. You can choose your most festive look, find an accessory that fits your vibe, and add a facial expression if you have room for more treats.
• Add the final touches by making a wish for this season.

Hey guys, greetings from Belarus!

Artem Shein, Team Lead from Digitalizm here. 

Covid has made adjustments to our usual traditions, so we worked out rules with the team for our favourite Secret Santa part. 

Small instruction in three items: 

1. Create you own card and a wish list (optional);
2. Select a number on the lottery board (you will receive a private letter/message with the name of your colleague later depending on this number);
3. When the gift is ready to be collected from the office, come here again and put a gift box with the name of your colleague on it under the xmas tree.

What you will need before the event: 

• Add event to calendar and invite your team; 
• Numbered list of participants (team members);
• Office is prepared with Xmas Tree and opened for collecting / taking gifts.
   

Will be glad if it could help!

Hello everyone   
My name is André Romão, and I’m UX & Digital Designer at GrupoM Portugal

At GroupM we have a huge Christmas tradition. We do several activities and socialize a lot.

Working remotely we have our agendas full of call's, webinars, workshop, we spend a lot of time on calls. However most of the time we are on these call we are on Mute, and that's why we decided to bring this concept to our Christmas interaction.

This board takes the dynamics and interactions we had in the office to each employee, in their homes. I hope you like it and have fun at this Christmas On Mute board with a Portuguese twist.

Instructions: Follow the footprints to navigate into this Christmas On Mute. More instructions will be given has you follow them 

Activities:

• Share a picture of your Christmas Table (we love to eat on this season);
• Decorate our virtual Christmas Tree;
• Add some presents to the tree;
• Secret Santa (as a support to our secret friend gifting tradition we exchange anonymous messages with each other);
• Listen our special Christmas playlist;

I hope you enjoy the way how we celebrate Christmas this year. 
Happy holidays!

@JB Ha Love this - can you submit to Miroverse or make copyable so we can play with our team?

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share a couple of visuals of the Christmas/Holidays-themed team party I ran with 2x of my teams using Miro. 

Here’s a few visuals and a brief overview of each of the three sections:

Part 1: Christmas Traditions

• Each person has a space to share three Christmas traditions, routines or rituals with the rest of the team
• This could be anything that is relatively recent, or from their childhood

Part 2: Christmas Crackers

• Everyone loves a cheesy Christmas cracker joke; so each person on the team gets one with the joke punchline covered by the red rectangular block
• Go round the team and one by one, each person reads their joke out and clicks on the punchline block and deletes it, revealing the cheesy punchline

Part 3: Christmas Dinner

• The main event, Christmas dinner - similar to another board I’ve seen above but each person uses the main ingredients list supplied (made up of emojis and images) and creates their own Christmas dinner
• We then went round each person again and share what our usual Christmas dinner looks like - highlighting the ingredients you have, don’t have and have lots of!

Hej everybody! My name is Simone Anne Slaviero and I’m currently working as a Service Designer & Project Manager at Jayway by Devoteam in Stockholm, Sweden. I’ve created a XMAS themed retro that is ideal to use at the end of the year before everyone leaves for vacation! It’s a great way to reflect on lessons learned, give some xmas kudos/cheer, and also think and prepare for the upcoming year. 

You can view the board here (instructions included within):

https://miro.com/app/board/o9J_lbXK5lA=/

The fun elements making up the board include:

• XMAS themed check in and check out, with a sample of XMAS Miro icons
• Review of XMAS Past, Present & Future with respect to lessons learned, kudos and future planning.

  

  

   

I hope you enjoy this fun way to review either the whole year, or maybe your last agile sprint for the year! Have a merry xmas and new year :D

@Saúl Cabriales Amazing idea! I will try it with my family 🥳
