What If We Reinvented the First Day at Work?

The best icebreaker games to welcome a new hire… without the awkwardness

We all remember it: That first day in a new company — a mix of excitement… and loneliness. You watch, you smile, you nod, without always daring to ask the question on your mind.

But what if we could do it differently?

What if welcoming a new team member wasn’t just a checklist, but a real moment of human connection — warm, simple, and effective?


At Frogs&Roos, we’ve designed a special Ice Breakers Kit just for that:

 Simple, quick games inspired by companies like Airbnb, IDEO, or Google,

 And above all: tools designed to make space for genuine connection — without forcing it.


Connection Starts from Minute One


We all know that feeling of joining an already close-knit team. Everyone knows each other, and you have to find your place — without disrupting the balance. Conversations are polite… but not yet real.

Today, companies that truly invest in a welcoming culture stand out — for retention, motivation, and engagement.

Our Ice Breakers – Welcome Edition are designed to:

  • Create authentic connections between colleagues,
  • Break the ice without awkwardness,
  • Build a climate of trust from day one.


What’s Inside the Kit


A pack of 5 team games, designed to create bonds from the very first day. Tested formats, quick to set up, built to foster smooth, human, and memorable integration.

  • Tools to naturally include the new hire in the team dynamic,
  • And a bonus: a simple, meaningful group ritual that leaves a lasting emotional impression.

Why It Changes Everything


Because a good onboarding isn’t just about tools. It’s about attention, subtle cues, and genuine gestures.

When the welcome is well thought out:

  • The person feels legitimate more quickly,
  • The team opens up more easily,
  • And the company culture becomes a lived experience.

Better welcoming means better retention.


And above all: laying the foundation for a team that knows each other, supports each other… and moves forward together.
