InCommon Buddies keeps young and old connected over video and phone calls. This is where you can find and download all of our Buddies activities. You can go through the calls in order or choose a theme that grabs you – or even mix and match activities from different weeks. Have fun – and let us know how you get on!

Weeks 1-3 introduce Buddies to keeping in touch from a distance. These games and activities get you thinking about the ways we keep busy and stay connected, and how they have changed through the years. Featuring ‘I spy from afar’, ‘The story of an object’, ‘Guess the hobby’ and more…

Weeks 4-6 invite Buddies to share their memories with each other - from your favourite songs to special celebrations and world-changing inventions. Featuring ‘Two truths, one lie’, ‘I’m hosting a party’ and InCommon’s very own music quiz!

Weeks 7-9 guide Buddies towards co-writing a story together. You’ll create a pair of characters and take them on an adventure using InCommon’s storytelling activities. Featuring ‘One word story’, tongue twisters and a template for your own Buddies storybook, which you can download here.
