Icebreaker for DD/Mental illness

[chancer]

Hello,

I am leading a group activity for wood working (they just paint the wood with their own water colors) but need an ice breaker for people who are developmentally delayed. I am thinking of just having each person talk about themselves, as that seems to make the most sense, but it seems kind of lame. Any ideas?

Thanks-

I'd go around the group and have them state their name and favorite color

How about favorite sports team or favorite music. This topic allows from some alliances--or rivalries--that can spark some levels of interaction...and is also a topic that comes up in conversation across all kinds of abilities/disabilities.

Both very good ideas! Perfect.

Thanks..
