Trainers Warehouse 6' Thumball Collection, 32 Prompts for Conversation, Team Building, Relationship and Training

Great for training and team building activities

I own my own resume writing, job coaching, and networking company. I am in the process of putting together a full day seminar and wanted to make the networking portion funny, light-hearted, and engaging. After some research, I found these balls and decided to try one. I used it over the weekend for the first time and it was a huge hit. I had a group of 14 people, most of who had never met each other. By the end of the exercise, everyone was laughing, talking with each other, and discussing their results. Because of this, I would definitely buy the others depending on my audience. I did feel like it was a tad on the expensive side but considering I'll use it over and over, I fully intend to get my money's worth out of it. Also, it's smaller than a soccer ball, but bigger than a softball, if anyone is wondering. It's very light. I did have to hide it from my pitbull because it's definitely a dog shaped toy.

Fun icebreaker for meetings. The ball is very soft and lightweight so it can be tossed gently from person to person.

As a corporate trainer, purchase this to infuse some activity and variety in my training classes. I had used something like this before that had pre-printed prompts, but I loved the idea of being able to customize this to our industry and lessons. My only downside is the marker that comes with. It doesn’t last very long and I had to switch to a sharpie. I’m interested to see how well it holds up after several classes of use.

Great training tool!
