Three digital team events for your Christmas party
A virtual Christmas party brings colleagues together across locations. For this, teamio offers digital events, built around shared experiences and real interaction. After all, doing something together matters more than ever in the age of working from home. And the requirements for a virtual Christmas party with your colleagues are simple: a laptop with a built-in camera and an internet connection is usually enough. Beyond that, all you need is a date that suits the whole team.
Here are three digital team events for your virtual Christmas party.
“Our Digital Quiz Show is great fun!” enthuses Gerhard Jansgers, Key Account Manager, promising plenty of entertainment – even with everyone joining from different places. In this online event, you split into small teams to tackle all sorts of challenges “together”. Besides the classic rounds of questions, the groups can look forward to funny video clips and wonderfully odd combinations of images. And since a real team event needs plenty of interaction between the players, there’s always a round of charades. Our digital quiz show wins everyone over with its variety of challenges – enough to put Günther Jauch to shame...
In our Virtual Live Escape Game you solve an online crime mystery. For participants working from home, good remote communication is a key factor in the team’s success. In this digital team event, small groups work together as teams of detectives and solve a wide range of challenges. The gripping plot calls for a high level of creativity, deduction and tactical skill – much like in a real escape room. Alongside the video conferencing software (such as Zoom or Microsoft Teams), we use a special gaming app, which participants install temporarily on a separate mobile device (such as a smartphone or tablet). That makes for a truly multi-sensory experience – in the form of an online team event. Incidentally, every group so far has completed the virtual Live Escape Game and solved the case – will your company manage it too?
Our online Christmas baking event is also a great idea for this year’s work-from-home Christmas party. This hybrid event combines the digital experience with a hands-on activity – all in the company of your colleagues. Before the virtual team event, we send our fragrant Christmas boxes to every participant. Inside you’ll find fresh gingerbread, the ingredients for icing, food colouring and other festive treats. During the digital team event, everyone builds their own gingerbread house, and of course everyone adds their own decorative touches. Then comes the big finale: presenting the delicious works of art! Points are awarded live to crown the most creative gingerbread house – and afterwards, at last, it’s time to tuck in...
Our online team events for the Christmas season can of course come with an extra festive touch: how about a small gift basket or parcel, for example? Glühwein (hot mulled wine) from a Palatinate winery, Dresden Christstollen and other treats will delight the recipients’ whole family. Alternatively, a meal kit you put together yourself, with an apron bearing your company logo, is a lovely idea. That way, even colleagues in different locations can share a Christmas meal.
