Received a new book from Jim Cain yesterday. A really good collection of Teambuilding Puzzles, all very usable. I learned a new twist for an activity I have been doing for years. Here is how I do the activity.
1) Give each group a penny and an eyedropper and a glass of water.
2) Ask them to estimate how many drops of water they can fit on to the penny.
3) Let them try.
Usually they are astounded by how many drops can squeeze on to the penny. Surface tension is what is holding the water droplets together in cohesion.
Now here is an idea in the book that I think is worth exploring "If you are wondering about the difference between the last drop that fits ont he penny and the next drop that doesn't we invite you to read: The Tipping Point - How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference"
