 Not for adults March 23, 2001
14 out of 38 found this review helpful
I was trying to locate something helpful for use in a more business-like setting and made a mistake with this one. Seems like this book is for activities aimed at kids 12 and under (though most of the photos show adults doing some of this sutff). This would NOT go over well with the adults I work with and I can't even imagine it outside of work. One activity is called "Basic Killer"---real nice with the increase in violence lately. Also, though some of the activities are indoors, it seemed that the vast majority were handled outdoors. Then there are the props...anyone have a spare parachute? I was disappointed and am returning it.
 Must Have Silver Bullets January 4, 2001
11 out of 13 found this review helpful
This book should be in every person's bag! Any time i cannot think of an activity i pull out silver bullets. Activities are great for children age 5 all the way to adult groups too! This and Quicksilver are my favorites - i will leave it at that.
Outstanding activity source book for youth workers. January 1, 1999
38 out of 41 found this review helpful
Lists numerous activities for youth. It clearly describes the activity and states the "purpose" of the activity. List of equipment needed are included. I have used the book extensively in setting up obstacle courses for bootcamps I conduct for youth teams going on short term mission trips. Great for team building. Many pictures.
This book has been very helpful in a multitude of situations December 13, 1998

Silver Bullets has been a lifesaver in some cases for us and in others has enabled us to put some great programs together for Boy Scout Troops and Explorer Scouts. I have also used some of its activities in a classroom setting. We currently do not know where our one and only copy is, so we are anxious to get another.
Excellent source for group activities to break down barriers September 6, 1996
49 out of 49 found this review helpful
Regardless of what age group of people you are working with, if you need a way to break down barriers between participants, this is the book for you. There are games, actions that involve trust, problems that involve reasoning and intiative thinking, and problem solving activities as well. The activities described in this book can be used with large or small groups, from youth groups to upper management teams. After participating in several of the activities, there will be new levels of trust and friendship developed and less friction in the organization. The Author, Karl Rohnke has done an excellent job of bringing together under one book many activities to promote co-operation and creativity among the participants. You can even adapt the games to a family level to increase harmony in the home. Silver Bullets provides a way to express the positive qualities of interaction among people to increase the human spirit of warmth and kindness. Be Thankful that there are people like Karl Rohnke who have the vision to put into words and pictures their ideas and creativity to build better relationships.
