How It Works
Step inside the Play on Purpose platform and see all of these great features in action! Our 2-minute behind the scenes tour will show you how our filters help you quickly find the right exercise for your group and our resources instantly up-level your facilitation.
The Professional Development Tool that lets you learn anytime, anywhere, at a fraction of the cost.
Learning from videos is better
It’s hard to learn new games by reading them on paper! It’s nearly impossible to tell how people will respond, how to clearly model the instructions, and how to anticipate the potential pitfalls. By watching the video you get the living felt sense of being in the room.
Find what you need quickly
Searching for videos of games on YouTube is often a long and frustrating process, sorting through exercises that are not relevant or appropriate for your group or context. Our easy search filters sort through the library to give you what you need quickly.
Online learning saves you time and money
It’s expensive and time consuming to take in-person workshops, hoping you might pick up a useful game or two. With this video library all the games are always at your fingertips for a minimal investment.
Where can you use these games?
You can use these activities to accelerate connection, learning and impact at any live virtual or in-person event, such as:

Origins of Play on Purpose
Over the years, I had become the person people called when they needed an infusion of meaningful play in their events. After hundreds of these one-on-one consultations, I decided to launch this library of videos as a way of making these impactful exercises available to more people like you!
The Play On Purpose library is the culmination of 20 years of researching, learning, and developing playful methods for engaging groups. I have used these exercises with tens of thousands of people around the world, and I am confident that they can work their magic on any group.
Each exercise is a precious gem that can be themed and re-interpreted in a million ways to deliver the experience that your group needs right now. I hope you find these tools useful in your practice, and that you continue to experiment with them and make them your own.
Play on!
