Bikes for tykes
One of the most powerful charity team building programs in Australia is Bikes For Tykes – the original charity bike building program.
Teams work through a series of activities with the overall goal to build a bike from scratch and put a smile on an underprivileged child’s face.
Toys for tykes
You never get too old for toys! In Toys 4 Tykes, teams work strategically to build a brand new children’s wooden toy from scratch.
It will be a challenge to be the best toy building team but then seeing the smile on the face of an underprivileged child who receives it will make it all worthwhile.

Give a dog a home
Each team’s goal in Give A Dog A Home is to design, build and present an award-winning dog kennel from scratch.

Why add a play-based experience to our work Christmas party?
Because food, drinks and a nice venue do not automatically create connection. A shared play experience gives people something to step into together, helping colleagues mix beyond their usual circles, laugh, collaborate and leave with stories they actually shared.
What if our team is sceptical or not naturally playful?
That is often where this work is most useful. Scepticism usually comes from how play has been framed in the past, as entertainment, agenda filler, or something that sits outside serious work. The approach here starts with credible education, clear language, and thoughtfully designed experiences that help teams understand play as support for connection, flexibility, and healthier responses to pressure.
Can you help people mix beyond their usual work groups?
Yes. We can structure teams so people spend time with colleagues they may not usually work closely with. It is a simple way to make the celebration feel more inclusive and avoid everyone staying in their usual circles.
Can it work around lunch, dinner, drinks, awards or speeches?
Yes. We can shape the experience around the flow of your event, whether you need an energetic start, a connection point before dinner, something to break up formalities or a centrepiece that carries the whole celebration.
Is a play-based Christmas experience different from entertainment?
Yes. Entertainment gives people something to watch, while a play-based experience gives them something to do together. Rather than sitting back for a performance, your team gets the chance to mix, laugh, solve, create and share the moment with each other.
Can we add a charity element to our Christmas celebration?
Yes. Charity team building gives people something meaningful to work towards together. Teams still get the energy, laughter and connection of play, while also creating a practical impact for a local cause or community organisation.
How long do Christmas team building activities run for?
Most programs run from around 90 minutes to three hours. Shorter sessions can create a high-energy connection point in the day, while longer experiences allow teams more time to collaborate, problem-solve and celebrate together.
How early should we book our Christmas event?
The earlier the better. Popular dates, venues and facilitators can book quickly from late November through to mid-December, so early planning gives you more choice and takes one thing off the end-of-year list.
Are your activities suitable for mixed ages and abilities?
Absolutely. The best Christmas events make it easy for everyone to join in. Our programs are inclusive, flexible and designed so people can participate at their own comfort level.
Do you provide support with planning our Christmas event?
Yes. From your first enquiry, we help you choose the right experience, shape the format around your team, confirm venue requirements, build a run sheet and coordinate the practical details with you. Our 10-step journey keeps the process clear from booking through to delivery, with one team guiding the experience rather than leaving you to manage it all yourself.
