Why This Wheel?

This activity wheel cuts through endless 'what do you want to do?' conversations. Instead of 20-minute debates where no one wants to decide, you get an answer in seconds. Everyone sees the spin happen on screen, so there's no question about fairness like with a coin flip. The visual element makes it more engaging than just listing options, and people actually commit to the result because the wheel decided it. Plus, it forces you to try activities you'd normally skip, which leads to discovering new favorites.

Ends Planning Debates

One spin replaces 20-minute conversations about what to do. Everyone agrees and moves on.

Fair for Groups

The activity wheel decides, so no one can argue. Everyone sees the same result on screen.

Discovers New Activities

The random picker forces you to try activities you'd normally skip, leading to new favorites.

Quick Tip

Mix quick and longer activities on your list. Tag activities as indoor or outdoor in the label so you can match your time and weather. Keep 8 to 12 clear options. Too many makes the wheel hard to read, and too few limits your variety.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many activities should I add to the activity wheel?

Aim for 6 to 12 options. That gives you enough variety without making the slices too small to read. Too many options makes it hard to see what won, and too few limits your choices.

Can I separate indoor and outdoor activities?

Yeah, absolutely. You can add labels like 'walk (outdoor)' or 'board game (indoor)' to each activity, or create separate lists for indoor and outdoor. The activity picker works with any list you give it.

What if we don't like what the activity picker chose?

The trick is to commit to the first result. That's what makes the activity wheel actually work. If you reroll every time you don't like the pick, you're back to the same debate. Set a rule before spinning: one spin decides it, no exceptions.

Can I use this activity wheel for team building exercises?

Absolutely. Teams use this activity picker for icebreakers and energizers. Add quick activities like 'two truths and a lie' or 'quick stretch', spin the wheel, and the whole team does whatever wins. It's faster than negotiating and everyone accepts the random pick.
