Below you will find some optional resources for Area Teams that are looking for additional activities to do with participants, host parents and/or host siblings at Orientations or other events including the “Additional Activities Booklet”
The booklet is divided into sections pertaining to each audience. Each section lists various activities and the Orientations to which they apply. Please feel free to adapt any/all activities to meet the needs and resources of your Area Team. Using and/or printing the booklet is completely voluntary.
When using the booklet or any of the other optional activities, it is recommended to review the activity in advance and try role playing it with other volunteers to prepare. Please note that a few of the activities are best viewed and/or printed in color.
