Another laid back experience for your corporate team building activities can be this Pour-A-Bear session. It’s an indoor experience where you can order refreshments later and bond over a fun conversation. 

Each member will be given their own moldable bear sculpture to paint alongside a dazzling selection of paint colors and three glitter shakers. Seeing those paints drip over your resin sculpture is a satisfying experience that does not just ease your muscles, but at the end of the day, you’ll have a masterpiece to take home as well. 

And it just doesn’t stop there. After painting your bear, you can put the leftover paints to some good use and create a spin art masterpiece on canvas. Using our air blower tool or experimenting with our spin art techniques, you and your colleagues can turn this session into a lively and interactive experience. It’s the perfect way to bond, share laughs, and unleash your creativity together.

5. Solve a Murder Mystery Over the Dinner Table 

A murder mystery dinner is another great idea for corporate team building activities. We bet you won’t find another good opportunity to interact and collaborate with your office colleagues than an immersive murder mystery dinner. Either arrange one for your team or attend a murder mystery dinner theater show in Chicago. 

It’s a great idea that fosters a sense of teamwork and collaboration among office colleagues. Your team members will learn something new about each other while sharpening their communication skills.   

6. Turn It into a Real Happy Hour by Visiting a Distillery 

There’s a wide range of distilleries in Chicago including those that offer tours, tastings, and cocktail classes. Turn your team building activity into a real happy hour by visiting any one of those distilleries with your colleagues and learn something new about the spirited history of Chicago. 

Or if you wish to give it an extra team building element, you can book your team members a cocktail class and bond with each other while mixing drinks. 

7. Go on a Food Adventure

If your team members are real foodies and they’re always discussing what to have for lunch, why not take them on a food adventure? Chicago has plenty of options. From its iconic deep dish pizza to authentic Chinese cuisine, you have a lot to discover.

Good mental health eventually comes from good physical health. So if you want your team members to be in their right minds, organize fitness classes or team workouts for them. It can be either in-person or virtual. 

Give them a chance to learn about their bodies and develop a new healthy routine. You can also build a small office gym for them to work out and have a small talk. 

9. Break the Ice with a Stand Up Comedy Show 

What better way to bring your team members together than through good laughter? Arrange an improv-style stand up comedy show for your team members either in the office or out somewhere, where they can showcase their humor, quick thinking and storytelling skills.
