Top 5 creative indoor games for corporate Diwali

Diwali is fast approaching. In fact, it’s hardly a week away. And I’m sure many of you are wondering which corporate indoor games you can make your employees play. After all, we don’t want to lose out on any opportunity to increase employee engagement, do we!

So, today I am going to open up my box of corporate indoor games and pick out 5 activities that you can use this Diwali. Here goes…

1. The Diwali Obstacle Race – This has to be my favourite. In fact, we had conducted this activity for a client a few years back. We had 80 participants running around like crazy trying to complete tasks right from creating Diwali lamps to eating insane amounts of Diwali sweets! The activity was easily the highlight of the entire team building session and one that our client still remembers till today😊

2. The Diwali Kitchen – This is another great activity which really brings employees together. It brings everyone to the kitchen where they have fun making typical Diwali sweets and eatables together. They also get the pleasure of sharing their creations with each other!

3. Diwali Decoration – This is one corporate indoor game that’s always a hit. Teams decorate their office space with Lanterns, Diya’s, Rangoli, etc. They also come to work in traditional Indian clothing which really adds a lot to the decoration! It feels like they are a part of one big family celebrating the festival of lights together.

4. Teen Patti – What’s Diwali without card games. Different parts of the country play different types of card games throughout the Diwali week. And these make great corporate indoor games for Diwali too.

5. Strokes – Diwali is all about connecting with our loved ones. And that’s exactly what our last activity focuses on. It makes use of ‘strokes’ taken from the Transactional Analysis theory. Employees go around giving each other different kinds of strokes. And the positive energy generated is really something to be seen!

So, that’s all from me folks. Here’s wishing you a very Happy Diwali in advance from the entire The Yellow Spot team. Have a blast and do let me know which corporate indoor games you finally went ahead with!
