A goal for family reunion organizers who expect extended family to attend is to have people talking and enjoying themselves as quick as possible, because there is so little time to do it. Activities like Ice Breakers help to loosen everyone up! Many of these can be arranged easily and quickly where others require time, effort and collection of supplies and materials.
The person who organizes ice breakers and give introductions at your reunions must be enthusiastic and able to sell everyone on the fun to follow. Oldest generation may be asked to introduce themselves, their families and share special events that occurred since the last reunion. Then, they can read letters and shared pictures from members who could not attend. Another idea is to ask the members a list of questions which reveals their talent. People will get acquainted and learn interesting information about each other this way.
