I've just purchased this book and am really impressed. Good to see so many quick yet powerful exercises in one book. Most of them I haven't seen before and that is refreshing. I am always on the look out for creative experiential resources and this book certainly fits the need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very creative !, December 5, 2000

Head of Marketing (Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: All Together Now!: A Seriously Fun Collection of Interactive Training Games and Activities (Paperback)

Some activities were completely new to me, and some were games I have know forever -- but with a tickling twist! Although some results are difficult to analyze accurately without a Master in Psychology, the exercises allow players to learn something about themselves. Good buy.

This book is a helpful book. However, I bought it for youth ministry and while it's useful, it's more directed towards adult groups, interactions. If you need to plan something for an adult meeting or business group, this book will give you endless ideas for icebreakers or mingling suggestions, games.
