Action-Oriented group games typically are high energy games that may require running or other wacky antics. Ice Breaker group games and activities tend to be shorter games useful for the beginning of meetings, especially when there may be new people present. Stationary group games tend to be medium length games that take place in one area. Team Building activities are usually problem solving group games that are useful for building trust or teaching some kind of lesson related to team dynamics.  Card Games typically involve the use of a standard deck of cards.
