1. Craft a Turkish mosaic lamp online

Forget Zoom fatigue, this DIY Turkish mosaic lamp class with Nurullah Gokdogan is the glow-up your remote team deserves. With experience collaborating with Forbes 500 companies and guiding over 20,000 participants, they know exactly how to turn creativity into tangible results, whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned DIYer.

After receiving DIY kits packed full of colorful glass tiles and a lamp base, everyone in your workplace will get to play designer and piece together a pattern that’s uniquely theirs.

The best part? You don’t need an art degree to make something beautiful. Your expert online instructor walks you through every step, so you can relax, get creative, and maybe even show off your finished lamp in the next team call. Here’s what one happy student had to say about this online team builder.

“I booked this for a team of 11 and we all had a great time. We had wonderful conversations and chatted throughout the event. Not only would I recommend this, I already have to others in my company! PS: He has some great baklava recommendations!” - Brooks Cutter

2. Connect over a work from home pizza party

For virtual team activities that are equal parts fun and flavorful, gather your crew over Zoom for a pizza party at home. Forget missing those big team dinners, this interactive class for remote teams brings the same energy straight to your screens.

With DIY kits delivered to each participant, everyone gets to roll out dough, layer on fresh toppings, and swap tips as they go. A passionate pizza pro from Culinary Kisses guides your group step by step, so even total beginners can create a pie worthy of bragging rights.

And the best part? You’ll sit back, laugh, and enjoy your handmade pizza together at the end, just like you would around the same table, only this time from home. It’s a delicious way to connect, unwind, and celebrate your team’s hard work. Just ask this happy team member!

“Our instructor helped me make a great dough!!! My team loved the class! Will definitely be booking this again.” - Ame Manso

3. Bring a little greenery to your remote teams

Looking for a calmer way to connect? This online succulent terrarium workshop lets your team bond over greenery while taking a breather from the holiday or work hustle. Instead of rushing through another meeting, you’ll all be layering soil, moss, and succulents together, sharing ideas (and maybe some plant puns) along the way.

DIY kits arrive at everyone’s door with everything you need to create a mini succulent garden. Your expert host from The Crafty Kit will guide your group step by step, while leaving space for personal flair so no two terrariums turn out the same.

When the class wraps up, each teammate will have a living keepsake for their desk, a little burst of green that’s not only soothing but also a daily reminder of the fun you shared together. Here’s what this WFH team had to say.

“The team really enjoyed the class! Huge thank you for doing such a great job at making our international team members feel included in the activity and getting everyone their kits so efficiently.” - Chrissy Ferro

4. Shake cocktails online for your next corporate event

Missing happy hour with your team? This virtual cocktail class brings back that after-work buzz, without anyone needing to leave home. Everyone gets a cocktail kit delivered to their doorstep to shake things up together, including tropical juices, rum, mocktail mixers, and fun Hawaiian props.

Your master mixologist from Food Craft NY leads your WFH team through two cocktails and one mocktail: the Spiced Hamana, Aloha O’e, and the Hula Lemonade mocktail. No matter your experience level, you’ll be mixing, tasting, and sharing laughs as you build something you can sip and show off on your next team call.

The best part? Every recipe comes with a non-alcoholic option, so everyone can raise a glass and join in, no matter their preference. By the end, you’ll not only have a few new go-to cocktails up your sleeve, but also plenty of laughs and shared memories to toast to. This team recommends it for your next work-from-home team building activity.

“Great class with a lot of prompts for team bonding, the teacher and moderator were super personable and fun!” - Nicole Fulmer

5. Surround your WFH team with candle making scents

Sometimes the best way to bond is by slowing down. A candle making workshop with Coastal Design Workshops invites your team to pause, breathe, and create something cozy together. With DIY kits of natural soy wax and soothing fragrances delivered straight to their doors, each teammate can design a candle that feels uniquely theirs.

As your instructor guides you through the process, you’ll chat, compare scent choices, and maybe even plan when to light your new candles for a team “wellness break.” It’s a relaxed, sensory way to reconnect while working from home.

Looking for online team builders that everyone can enjoy? This happy team thinks this class has you covered!

“We did this as a quarterly team event at work. We work 100% remote, so it is always great when we can get together on Zoom and do something fun. It was a great, easy-going experience that we all enjoyed. Also, our host was fun and very knowledgeable! 10 out of 10.” - Marlena Overton

6. Cozy up with a virtual craft night

Need a break from screens and deadlines? A chunky knit workshop is perfect for remote teams looking to get cozy and crafty. In this online team builder, you’ll make chunky pumpkins using soft, thick yarn in pumpkin shades and felt. You’ll learn how to hand-knit two adorable pumpkins just by using your hands. No needles, no stress.

This class is wildly beginner-friendly. As you shape and stuff your pumpkins, you’ll share stories, compare stitches, and maybe even joke about your yarn trying to slip away. It’s tactile, cozy, and so satisfying.

In the end, each person will have two chunky knit pumpkins to display in their home or workspace, and a real sense of togetherness from creating something warm and handmade, all across Zoom. This happy knitter recommends it for remote teams.

“Our team had a great time making chunky pumpkins! Cara was so helpful and easy to follow. The order experience was amazing, with accommodating our multiple shipping and payment needs.” - Melissa O'Brien

7. Celebrate your WFH team with a sweet treat

Treat your team to something deliciously fun with a chocolate making class. This online team builder turns your kitchen into a candy-maker’s dream, with everything you need sent straight to your door.

Guided by an expert chef from Z.Cioccolato, you and your teammates will whip up jumbo peanut butter cups, pecan turtles, chocolate-covered strawberries, dipped Oreos, and almond bear paws. Each sweet treat is simple enough for beginners, but satisfying enough that everyone ends up with something mouthwatering to show off.

What makes this one especially good for remote teams? It’s the laughter over chocolate mishaps, the shared aroma of melting chocolate wafting through everyone’s home, and the joy of tasting your creations together, even if you’re miles apart. 

Whether your teammates are in Houston, San Francisco, or Boston, everyone gets the same ingredients, the same instructions, the same chance to create and connect. It’s so good you may even want to come back for more, like this happy customer!

“This is the second time I have participated in this class, and it just keeps getting better. This was a team building class for us, and it allowed us all to relax and just have some fun together. I would recommend it to anyone, book and have some chocolate fun.” - Melody Steveson

Connect your team with creative online team builders

No matter which class you choose, these online team builders turn everyday Zoom calls into something your team will actually look forward to. From crafting glowing mosaic lamps to sharing a homemade pizza, tending to mini gardens, or raising a toast with freshly mixed cocktails, each experience is designed to spark conversation, laughter, and genuine connection.

Remote work doesn’t have to feel isolating; these WFH activities make it easy to bond, celebrate wins, and create memories together, even when you’re miles apart. You’re not just booking a workshop, you’re giving your team a chance to connect, recharge, and have a little fun along the way.
