What?
Building an ancient Greek and Indian invented siege engine is an experience in itself. Catapult Battle from Pepbox in an indoor team building activity where teams build prototypes of catapults from given material and a demo piece to ultimately shoot projectiles. Teams compete in criteria of design and number of projectiles successfully shot.
How?
The entire group is divided in equal number of teams. Each team is given the same material/a kit required to build prototype of a catapult. Team Pepbox will have a pre-designed prototype kept for the teams to observe. Team members can gain inspiration from the pre-designed prototype to build their own. Ultimately, the design and functionality are put to test when team members shoot and catch projectiles that are stimulated as plastic balls. Time taken to build the prototype and the number of projectiles caught will be the deciding factors for winning.
Why?
Design thinking is key to this activity while team building and bonding is also achieved when team members come together to build their unique design and compete with other teams.
