And on your birthday you really want something unusual! Let's now all mentally transport ourselves to the world of Ancient China and begin a fascinating virtual journey in search of a mysterious scroll and a talisman of good luck.
You all know Mulan Hua - the national heroine of China (everyone knows the cartoon "Mulan"), such a girl really existed (589 - 618). Her grave and crypt still stand in Dajou Village, Yucheng County. She became famous for the fact that instead of her elderly father she went to fight herself and became a shining example of courage and perseverance. The young girl was able to steadfastly endure all the suffering and hardships of the war and bring victory to her homeland. And today, together with Mulan, we will look for a scroll and a talisman of good luck. According to ancient Chinese legend, each person has his own scroll and talisman, which brings good luck in everything.

China is a country of ancient traditions and customs. It is known that Mulan was taught manners at school. When visiting, it is customary to be polite and good conversationalists; it is customary to pay compliments to the hero of the occasion.
So, the first competition.

1. Compliment competition.
Sitting at the table in a circle, everyone in turn says gentle and pleasant words - adjectives - to the birthday boy, the one whose vocabulary is drying up says a voluminous toast - a wish.

Presenter: Let's join in and raise a glass to such an extraordinary birthday girl. And we give the winner of the first competition a yuan. It seems to me that everyone passed this stage of the test of politeness with dignity.

If necessary, take a break for a meal.

2. Riddles about fairy-tale heroes.
Presenter: Every nation has its own epic tales, legends, fairy tales. It is unlikely that we will guess what will be offered to a girl named Mulan when she looks for her scroll. But let's remember our childhood and try to solve the riddles. The first person to correctly name the answer is given 1 Chinese yuan.

3. Competition "Geisha Smile".
Presenter: Be charming. Close your eyes: imagine that you opened them in the mysterious, bewitching setting of the East. You've heard about geishas - these are women who can show the beauty of the world through their tenderness, tact, politeness, through their knowledge. Not a single geisha will scream to be heard, she speaks quietly, insinuatingly, softly, but everyone listens to her. And she always smiles.

4. Scenes “Amuse your friends.”
Presenter: There is an ancient Chinese legend about the evil beast Gongyan. According to ancient legend, the “gonyan” was a wild beast that brought people a lot of trouble; because of its ferocious appearance, trees shed their leaves and the land became barren. But the wise old man taught people that Gongyan is afraid of laughter and fun. Let us drive away the evil beast so that eternal spring always blooms in the life of our birthday girl and in her soul and let us act out scenes!

The presenter lays out cards on the table. The girls are divided into pairs and choose a task card themselves. Participants in the competition must take turns performing a skit.

Parent: Hello, I am the mother of Sidorov Vova.
Teacher: Hello, my dear Olga Petrovna, please take a seat.
Parent: Did you call me?
Teacher: Lately, your son, how can I put this more precisely, has become kind of a goofball, a nerd. During the lessons he is not responsible for the market, he drives something, sometimes he does it, and at times he doesn’t talk about anything at all, excuse me for God’s sake!

The parent, not understanding anything, looks around and shrugs, unable to find words to respond to the teacher’s monologue.

Mistress: No, on TV!
Male voice : God! Live broadcast, and I'm in shorts!

One incorrigible joker and merry fellow came to school with a thoroughly black eye.

Classmates wondering: What happened?
Joker: You see, I suffer from insomnia and therefore at three o’clock in the morning, with nothing to do, I usually dial some number on the phone and ask the person I woke up: “Guess who’s calling?”
Classmates: So what?
Joker: Last night some guy figured it out!

Presenter: All the scenes were great. You managed to convey the situation and the characters of our heroes. I think that we have passed this test of cheering and delighting and have become even closer to our scrolls and talismans of good luck. And everyone needs to be given 1 yuan!

5. Competition "Questions for intelligence."
Presenter: In Chinese mythology, the Dragon is one of the sacred creatures, a symbol of spring and the east. The dragon is depicted in different ways: in the form of a large snake, an animal that resembles both a tiger and a horse, or a head like a camel and a neck like a lizard. And all because no one has ever seen him. One of the legends of the Chinese people says that the dragon king Da Wang fell ill at sea. And he had to turn to a doctor who lived in a fishermen’s village on the condition that he would never describe his patient. Having asked the healer questions, the Dragon King was convinced that this was a competent and intelligent person, and he could be trusted with his health. Now I’ll ask you questions (don’t worry, not about medicine!) and let’s see who’s the smartest. The first person to give the correct answer is given 1 Chinese yuan.

Presenter: Well, we have overcome this step to our scrolls of luck with honor.

6. Cooking competition.
Presenter: When in China the bride was carried in a palanquin from her father's house to the groom's house, in order to avoid all kinds of misfortunes, it was necessary to feed and water the spirits who came across their path with dishes whose names began with the letter of the bride's name. Now everyone will take turns saying the names of dishes and products that begin with the letter of the name of the hero of the occasion MARINA - “M”. The one who has run out of vocabulary says a voluminous toast - a wish to the birthday girl. Those interested can join.
If necessary, take a break for a meal.

7. Competition "Believe it or not" .
Presenter: Hard times have come for the Chinese people: the country was attacked by the warlike tribe of the Huns. Dressed in men's clothes, Mulan wants to join other warriors and go on a dangerous hike to the foot of the snow-capped mountains. But you need to pass one more test: quickly and correctly answer questions with just one word “yes” or “no”. Can we quickly and correctly answer almost the same questions?

Presenter: All people strive for happiness. How to achieve it? The Chinese offer a very simple and wise answer in Chinese: happy is the cat who has the opportunity to hug three people every day and sing a song cheerfully.
So, the competition “We all sang songs.” I read the definition to a children's song, whoever guesses it first gets a winner token, and then everyone sings the song.

Skilled dancers sometimes wield their fans so daringly that you are amazed. You are given a unique opportunity to feel like real Chinese dancers. The participant in the dance must hold a feather in the air with the help of a fan, and everyone in chorus counts who can dance the longest.
Presenter: Everyone excelled in this competition, because you not only have to hold the feather in the air longer, but also dance.

10. Game "Search for the flower of happiness."
Presenter: You are all a little tired, so I offer you an interesting and educational history of flowers.
In the poem, the heroine's name is simply Mulan. "Mulan" means "magnolia" ("Mu" means tree and "Lan" means "orchid"). Mulan is often given the surname Hua, which means "flower".
In China there is a legend about a mysterious flower of happiness. The tulip symbolizes success, love and protection. They wear it to protect life from poverty and all kinds of failures. Tulip is the house of the elves. If tulips are blooming in your garden or a vase of tulips in your apartment, know that little people are fluttering between the flowers. And the elves will definitely visit you. But, as it happens, in a moment of misfortune and trouble there is no saving flower of happiness at hand. Today you have a unique opportunity to find a flower of happiness right here. I think that each of you will find exactly what you are missing.
Paper flowers are laid out on the table with the text facing down. Each guest chooses her own flower and reads out loud which flower of happiness she needs most at this stage of her life.
White
White tulips know how to cleanse etheric fields.
To set yourself up for work, place seven buds in the center of the room. Turn the vase a quarter turn every day. After a week, take the flowers out of the house and leave them outside. Your performance will increase. Reds
The red color of tulips is the color of love.
Gently ask the guy you care about if he likes red tulips. After this, at home, put a bouquet of these flowers in a vase and every time you look at the tulips, think about your boyfriend. And you will see that he will treat you much better.
Orange
The orange color of tulips is the color of protest.
If you don’t find anything in common with all the people around you, let the tulips stand at your bedside overnight. All feelings of protest and misunderstanding will go away. And the next day there will be mutual understanding around you, your relationships with the people around you will become harmonious. Yellow
Yellow tulips attract money.
Decorate your home with bouquets of yellow tulips. Use fresh flowers or their image for this, because they also have the property of attracting money. Hang a picture of yellow tulips in a prominent place or make it your computer screensaver, this will help you gain wealth.
Variegated
Variegated tulips are responsible for variety in life.
Place a bouquet of colorful tulips in a prominent place in your room. Every time you pass by a vase, smell the aroma of the flower. After some time, dramatic changes will occur in your life. Burgundy
The burgundy color of tulips symbolizes power.
By presenting a bouquet of burgundy tulips as a gift, you will win someone over and you can count on his generosity and kind attitude.
Marble
Marble tulips are responsible for the good attitude of people.
Are you tormented by conflicts at school and at home? Place flowers in the center of the room. Admire them and enjoy their beauty. After some time, you will get rid of irritation and anger, and goodwill and mutual understanding will reign around you. Pink
Pink tulips improve your mood.
If you are bored, tired of everything, then buy a bouquet of pink tulips. Put them in a vase and pay attention to them more often. This will not only lift your mood, but also rid the room of viruses of irritation and anger.

Presenter: Let's raise our cups to happiness. For the happiness of the birthday girl and each of you. After all, we all know that, contrary to legend, happiness is not in a flower, but in those who are next to us - in our family and friends.

Comic lottery.
Presenter: Are you tired of active recreation, competitions and games? Let's count the amount of yuan earned. One box contains prizes, the other contains folded notes with the names of the prizes. Each of you takes a note, reads what prize he got and takes it himself. The one with the most tokens starts.

Food break. Then there is a dance break, during which the table is prepared for tea.

11. Fortune telling with tea.
Presenter: Let's drink tea, but not ordinary tea, but Chinese green tea. The Chinese tea ceremony is not just drinking tea, it is a sacred event. Let's remember Chinese fortune telling with tea. Chinese green tea without additives is suitable for fortune telling.
Basic rules of Chinese tea fortune telling:
. Sugar is not added to “fortune telling” tea,
. brew a spoonful of tea directly in the cup,
. cover it with a saucer or lid,
. wait no more than ten minutes,
. Before you take a sip, think about the question you want to clarify,
. you need to take a cup of tea with your left hand, the one closest to your heart,
. if you saw a floating tea leaf, expect an expensive gift very soon,
. if a tea stalk floats on the surface - a clear sign to guests from afar,
. drink all the tea to the bottom,
. turn the cup three times clockwise,
. turn it upside down, put it on a saucer, leave it for a while,
. look into the cup: the pattern of tea leaves on the walls of the cup is the answer to your question!
Let's look at:
- The handle of the cup should be on the left side.
- Pay attention to the picture as a whole: does the picture consist of many disconnected, unrelated tea leaves? If the drawing is absolutely chaotic and the tea leaves do not communicate in any way, this means that Providence is still leaving your question unanswered. But by no means is this a negative answer! It’s just that the time for an exact answer has not yet come.
- Shape of tea leaves: if there are round tea leaves in a cup, your wish will certainly come true.
- Light streams-stripes passing along the edges of the cup - a road awaits you.
- A stripe on the outside of the cup - the journey will be long.
- The time of the upcoming action is determined by the location of the figure in the cup:
- if it is on the edge of the cup or near the edge - present tense,
- the closer to the bottom, the further away the upcoming event is in time,
- if the symbols are located at the very bottom - the distant future,
- the closer the symbol is to the pen, the sooner the prediction will come true.
- Look at the numbers and letters formed from tea leaves, which you must take into account when collecting the result of fortune telling into a single whole.
- If the tea leaves have formed some kind of figure, we begin to unravel!
(detailed interpretation can be found in specialized literature, on the Internet)

Game "Scroll".
Guests take turns writing a few lines of congratulations to the birthday girl and wrapping what they wrote so that the next participant only sees the end of the phrase. After each guest writes something, the piece of paper is unfolded and what is written is read. The task is to write an original congratulation without repetition.

Presenter: I suggest we raise our cups to make your wishes come true!

Summarizing.

What could be better than a birthday, and even 11 years. This day should be spent in an unusual and original way with your friends. An 11th birthday script for a girl will make this day the best of the year. We tried to make the entertainment program rich. It’s also worth noting that you need to buy gifts for your guests, and then they will definitely remember this magical day.

The beginning of the holiday.
When guests arrive, they pass through an arch made of balloons. And there is a red carpet on the floor. And all the girls walk along the red carpet. You can immediately give them tasks - let them impersonate some celebrity and go to an awards ceremony. It will be interesting to see your girlfriends who “become” adult stars.
When all the guests have passed through the arch, they are greeted by the hostess of the evening.

Birthday girl:
Thank you, my girlfriends, for coming to my party! I am very happy that you are all here to visit me. I promise you an interesting and entertaining program. But you must promise me: to have fun, laugh and have fun until your legs “fall off” themselves. And since in our world no one believes words, let’s say the guest’s oath, sign it and have fun.

The birthday girl reads out the oath, and the guests repeat after her. Afterwards everyone signs this document.

Oath:
I am a guest of this holiday, and I solemnly swear:
Participate in all competitions;
Show the will to win;
Try all the dishes on the festive table;
Drink all drinks that are allowed to me due to my age;
Dance, have fun and enjoy the holiday;
I certify everything described above with my signature. And if the oath I made is broken, then I will eat a whole lemon in front of everyone!

After everyone has signed the oath, the entertainment begins.

Leading:
Dear girls! You all know that we decorated this birthday only with balloons. And our whole holiday will be only with them. But, as you can see, the balloons are inflated, but they are not decorated. And here is your first task.

First task:
Guests pick up felt-tip pens, markers and anything else you can draw on the balloon. And they begin to paint each ball. After all the balls are painted, the best one is chosen and the one who made it that way receives his prize. This could be a set of markers and a sketchbook.

Leading:
Fine! You all did an excellent job with the first task and helped us decorate the holiday even better.
And while our helpers (dad, brothers and someone else) are hanging the balloons, I suggest we take a little break and laugh.
Remember when you walked the red carpet and showed yourself differently? So here it is. There are task cards on the table. You take them in turn and read what is written there.

Task two:
There are cards with inscriptions on the table. Such as: Mona Lisa, baby to parents, grandmother to granddaughter, policeman to child, dog to owner, mother to father, cat to dog, Indian to pale face and so on. The essence of the competition is this: you have to smile the way it says on the card. Whoever does it better and more artistically wins.
And the winner can be given a mask with a smile.

By the way, you can watch many interesting and varied competitions for all occasions. There are more than a hundred competitions for you, for every taste and color.

Leading:
What great fellows and actresses you all are! You all should definitely go to study to become actors and act in films. But to make films you also need to be smart! Therefore, I will now distribute sheets of paper and pens to all of you. I will read the tasks, and you will write the correct answer on your sheet. Afterwards we will count who has the most correct answers.

Third task:
1. The bear has none! A person has one! And the magpie has two! And milk has three! (answer: letters O in the word)
2. Do you know a lot of birds? What do you think - can an ostrich call itself a bird? (answer: no, because the ostrich cannot speak)
3. It's yours - but you don't use it! It’s someone else’s – and you use it all the time! (answer: person's name)
4. There is a disease that you cannot get on earth. But people get it, and quite often. (Answer: seasickness)
5. You poured yourself some tea and sweetened it. Which hand is better to stir tea to make it sweeter? (answer: it’s better to stir the tea with a spoon so as not to burn your hand)

You can add questions and make the competition longer.
After all questions have been asked, the number of correct answers is counted. The funniest answer to any question is also determined. The one who gets the most points gets the know-it-all book (encyclopedia), and the one who gives the funniest answer gets a clown mask.

Children also enjoy playing forfeits. We have a lot for you. So think about it, maybe it’s worth organizing such a competition.

Leading:
Girls, how often do you get compliments? How often do you say something nice to others? I suggest playing with words. But don’t just say any words, but according to the rules. And these are the rules.

Fourth task:
You need to name words that begin with the letter of the birthday girl’s name. That is, if the birthday girl’s name is MARINA, then the words must be named with these letters. But not just words, but according to assignments. First you need to name the names of food dishes that begin with these letters. For example, the first letter M is pasta. The second letter A is peanut butter. The third letter R is roll. And so on. They name everything in turn, each starting with the next letter. Whoever does not name is eliminated and the winner remains, he gets one point.
Below are words that refer to fruits and vegetables. M – tangerine. A - watermelon. R – radish. And so on. Again, a point for the winner.
Now some compliments for the birthday girl. M is my favorite. A – astronomical smile. R – femme fatale. And so on. Point for the winner.
You can come up with more themes for games. Afterwards, the points are counted, and whoever has the most is given a gift - a book “learning to speak correctly.”

Leading:
So, you all know how to speak correctly and beautifully. Do you know how to look after fashion and yourself? Let's check!

Fifth task:
It can be done in different ways. If the girls agree, they should organize a beauty contest. To do this, they take turns going into the room with the birthday girl, and there, choosing from her clothes, accessories and jewelry, they dress up. And then they have a fashion show.
If girls are shy, then such a fashion show can be held on dolls. To do this you need dolls and clothes for them.
When the show is over, the results of the performance are summed up. Whoever wins gets a prize - a set of cosmetics.

Leading:
Our official part has now come to an end. But a “delicious” table and many, many treats still await you all! So get yourself organized and get to the table!

Greetings, dear blog readers! All fathers and mothers want to organize a real holiday for their “child”. What ideas can you come up with to entertain the children? After all, the gameplay for children is the most interesting and brings a lot of pleasure. And so that this day is not only solemn, but also unusually joyful, so that the house is filled with children's voices, laughter, songs, music, fun and their “treasure” is remembered for a long time.

For this wonderful holiday, parents need to prepare not only goodies for the table, but also an entertainment program for at least 2 hours. It should be lively and rich. Children should not be bored for a single minute. Not only the birthday boy, but every guest should feel like the “center of the universe.”

Therefore, parents of the birthday boy need to develop a plan for organizing and holding the birthday of a child of any age at home:

• determine the number of guests and give them colorful invitation cards
• create room decor (balloons, posters, garlands, etc.)
• buy a new outfit for the hero of the occasion
• buy a desired birthday gift for the birthday boy
• buy small gifts for all guests and gifts for prizes
• record popular and funny children's songs
• determine the holiday menu
• bake a fresh homemade cake and don’t forget about beautiful candles
• write a script for the holiday, including presenting gifts to the birthday boy, an invitation to the festive table, and consideration of gifts. Then entertainment events, songs, games, dances, competitions, riddles, etc.

One year old birthday

Birthday of a child 2-3 years old

Popular birthday games

No birthday can be complete without funny children's games, competitions, and riddles.

Fanta

"The Wolf and the Little Goats." This is an active game.

Draw a string around the houses and place all the children in them, except one. They will play the role of kids. The kids live together and often run to visit each other. And a gray wolf wanders around - one and the players. He tries to catch the kid outside the house. A kid who is caught becomes a wolf. The game continues until everyone is a wolf.

"Cold-hot." This game seems very mysterious to a 5 year old.

The presenter quietly hides the toy (dinosaur). According to the presenter, “cold - warm - hot,” the children guess where to look for the toy. The game continues until everyone plays the role of a seeker. The found toy is a prize to the player who found it.

Guess the Beast is a fun game.

Children are blindfolded and given a soft toy. You need to guess who it is. The game needs to be started by an adult who will deliberately think for a long time, twist, twirl and incorrectly call the hare a bear. Children will laugh and the game will take on a comic character. The game continues until each child plays the role of a guesser.

"Mouse Concert" is an entertaining game.

Print by clicking on the pictures with mice, finger mice. You can glue a mouse head out of paper in the form of a bag on your finger, glue on the ears, and draw eyes and a nose with a black felt-tip pen. Each child should put a mouse mask on his finger. The adult will be the first to start the game, singing a song or reciting a poem in a thin, squeaky mouse voice. And then the children will take turns demonstrating their talents on behalf of the mouse.

Don't Crush the Egg is a funny game. It promotes the development of memory, attention and caution.

A piece of any fabric that represents a road is placed on the floor. Raw eggs are laid out on this road. The player is asked to carefully look at the road along which he must pass and not crush a single egg. While the player is blindfolded, the eggs are quietly removed. So he walks very carefully to the end of the road, and when the bandage is removed, the player and all the children laugh.

"Horned". The game requires concentration and attention.

All children stand in a circle and shake their fists. The presenter says: “He walks, wanders... and when the horned goat speaks,” everyone sticks out their fingers. If the presenter says “the goat is hornless,” then they do not unclench their fists. Whoever makes a mistake is eliminated from the game and helps the presenter look for violators.

"It's in the Hat" is a musical game.

A beautiful hat is put on any of the children standing in a circle. Turn on the music. The child in the hat turns around and puts the hat on the neighbor on the left (clockwise). When the music stops, the one wearing the hat leaves the game, sits down at the sweet table and waits for the others.

For the birthday of a child 5-6 years old

About Answer “yes” to everything, nesmeyanu, mummy, mirror, etc. And today I have prepared some more fun activities.

"Basketball" is a game for a group of children.

Attach a wire ring to the wall at a height convenient for this age. The ball will be a balloon. The presenter explains to the children two rules of the game: the ball should not fall to the floor and it should not be held in their hands. The ball can be tossed and hit towards the ring. Whoever makes the most hits in the ring will receive a prize - a chocolate candy, the rest of the players will receive a caramel.

"Images".

Lay out cards with birds and animals depicted on them. The player approaches the table, takes a card and tries to portray with various movements and facial expressions the person who is drawn on it. The player who first guesses the image becomes the leader and the game continues.

“It's boring for us to sit” is a simple game for physical development.

Chairs are placed against the wall of the room for all children. There is one less chair placed against the opposite wall. Everyone sits down and reads the poem:

Oh, how boring it is for us to sit and look at the wall. Isn't it time to go for a run and change places?

At the leader’s command “start”, all players rush to the opposite wall and try to take a place. The one who is left without a chair is out of the game. Then another chair is removed. The game continues until the winner takes the last remaining chair. He is given a large ball (or something else), the rest of the players are given small balls.

Jenga is a board game that develops dexterity, fine motor skills and coordination.

This game is sold in a toy store. A tower of 18 levels is built from 54 multi-colored wooden blocks. To do this, the blocks are folded in threes and the resulting layers are laid on top of each other, one across the other. A cardboard guide will help you level the tower.

This game is best suited for 4 children. You can play with two or more players. They take turns throwing a die, each side of which has a color indicated on it. Now the player with only one hand needs to pull out a block of the same color from the tower and put it on top in order to continue construction. You cannot take blocks from the unfinished top layer and the layer below it. The player who destroyed the tower is considered the loser and the game continues.

"Nonsense" is a cool game.

Take a double (from the middle) notebook sheet of paper and two pens or two pencils. Two players sit at opposite ends of the table and draw, covering the drawing with their hand, someone’s head (a person, a dog, a hare, a cat, a goat). Then they bend the leaf so that the design is not visible, but only the neck is visible, and pass it to the second player. He draws the body (of a hare, a hedgehog, a person, a bear, a dog). He also folds the paper over to cover the drawing and passes it to the first player to draw someone's legs. Then he closes the drawing and passes it again to the second player, who draws someone’s feet. Now we unfold the drawing and see what happened? Funny and fun.
Room decoration idea

For children 7,8,9 years old

For entertainment at the birthday party of children 7,8,9 years old, games of a slightly different nature are needed. These children are already elementary school students. They can read and write and play sports. At this age, children begin to feel part of the adult world. I suggest playing the following games with them:

"Bear" is an outdoor game.

One of the players is elected “bear”. He lies down on the floor. The rest pretend to pick mushrooms, pick raspberries around the “bear” and sing:

The bear in the forest has mushrooms and berries, but the bear does not sleep, he looks into both eyes. The basket overturned and the bear rushed after us.

And then the bear rises and catches the fleeing players. Whoever gets caught becomes a bear. Game continues.

"The Third Wheel" is a musical game.

For the game you will need one fewer chairs than there are guests. Both adults and children play. The chairs are placed with their backs facing each other, with their seats facing outwards. The players stand around the seats of the chairs. The host turns on cheerful music, and the players begin to run around the chairs. As soon as the music turns off, the player must sit on any chair. Whoever does not get a chair is eliminated from the game. Another chair is removed, etc. The winner is the remaining one participant.

“Sparrow-Crow” is a game of attention and reaction speed.

Two players sit at the table opposite each other and extend one hand to each other, but the hands should not touch. The presenter gives names to the players: one is “sparrow”, the other is “crow”. The presenter calls the names of the players. The one whose name is called must grab the opponent's hand. For fun, the presenter slowly and syllable-by-syllable says the names vo-rooo-na, vooo-rooo-bey, or maybe say vo-ro-ta. A caught sparrow becomes a crow, and a crow becomes a sparrow. Game continues.

The Chamomile game is a fun game.

A chamomile is made from white paper with as many petals as there will be guests. Write funny tasks on the back of each petal. Children take turns tearing off one petal at a time and begin to perform the task: dance, crow, sing songs, recite poems, tongue twisters, etc.

"Knowledge" is an educational game.

All children sit on chairs in one row. The host announces the theme of the game, for example, cities. Then he approaches the player sitting on the edge, names any city and gives him a ball. The player must quickly name any city and give the ball to his neighbor. Whoever could not name the city leaves the game. Then the topic changes: fruits, flowers, countries, rivers, names. Game continues.

These games are suitable for children 10–12 years old

If you have a private home and it’s summer outside or you’re celebrating a birthday outdoors, then these are ideal

"Smart and Cheerful Engine" is an intellectual game.

The presenter (adult) asks each player one question. For example, which scientist did an apple fall on his head? (to Newton). Which of the heroes fought with the Serpent Gorynych? (Nikitich). In which hemisphere of the globe do penguins live? (in Yuzhny), etc. If the player answers the question correctly, then he becomes a carriage of a smart locomotive. If the player cannot answer, then he can take a hint for a certain service: sing, recite a poem, dance, portray an animal.

The funny little train must gather all the players and the children in the carriages will sing a funny song.

"Fishermen and Fishes" is an active game.

From all the players, two fishermen are chosen, and the rest of the players are fish. They dance in a circle and sing:

Fish live in the water, They don’t have a beak, but they peck. They have wings, but they don’t fly, They don’t have legs, but they walk. Nests are not made, but babies are hatched.

After this, the fish scatter, and the fishermen join hands and catch them. The caught fish join the fishermen, causing the net to become longer, and catch the rest of the fish. The last fish that the fishermen do not catch is the winner.

“Pick up the key” - this game promotes the manifestation of skill.

Two players are given three locked padlocks and a bunch of keys. The task is to open each lock. The first one to open the locks wins. The game continues until everyone is a “discoverer.”

“Are you going to the ball?” — girls love this game.

The host starts the game with a saying:

- Yes and no - don’t say

Black and white - don't take it,

Will you go to the ball?

- Probably the player is answering.

—What will you go on? Who will you go with? What will you wear? What colour? With such questions, the presenter tries to catch the player and use forbidden words. If by chance a word is said, then the players change roles.

“Treasure Hunt” is an interesting game that develops ingenuity.

The first clue-riddle is read by the presenter:

Everyone who came to visit us,

Let them sit down at our…..The guessing table is the place to look for a clue. There is another clue on the table - which horse doesn’t drink water? The answer is chess. There is another riddle in chess - dressed in a colorful candy wrapper, it lies in a vase..... The answer is candy. The candy again contains a riddle-clue - everyone goes, goes, goes, but they don’t get up from their place. The answer is a clock. Behind the table clock there is a treasure - a box with small chocolates for each player.

Comic win-win lottery game

The adult presenter will place bright lottery tickets with numbers on the table, as many as there are guests. The player approaches the table, pulls out one lottery ticket and says the ticket number loudly.

The presenter reads out the text corresponding to this ticket and gives the prize to the player. Prizes can be very different, and the texts for them are comic and preferably in poetic form:

Games for parents for a child's birthday

Children are very happy when their parents participate in their games. My grandmother told me how she played a game of musical chairs at her seven-year-old daughter's kindergarten graduation and won the musical competition. How happy all the children were, shouting “Hurray!” and applauded. And her daughter’s eyes simply shone with happiness. 50 years have passed since then, and my daughter happily recalls this interesting episode in her life.

I invite adult guests to play the following games with their children at the child’s birthday party:

"Potato soup."

Place two tables at a distance of three meters. Place two plates with seven small potatoes on one table. On another table there are two empty saucepans. Two players are given one tablespoon each. The task is for each player to transfer one potato with a spoon into a pot of seven potatoes for soup. Whoever completes the task faster is the winner. The game continues until all players have cooked soup. Prize for all guests: chocolate candy.

"Box walker".

Prepare four identical cardboard boxes. All players in pairs at the leader’s command “Start!” They compete to see who gets to the finish line the fastest. Then they conduct a second round of those who win, etc. In this way, the fastest box walker is chosen. He is given a prize - a flashlight.

"Kindergarten for kangaroos."

A rope is used to fence off the “kindergarten for kangaroos” 2–3 meters from the starting rope line. Children in groups of 2 each pick up one soft toy (plastic bottles are possible) and only jump to get to the kindergarten. They return back, leaving the kangaroo cubs in the kindergarten, also by jumping. The one who returns the fastest will win.

They are replaced by two parents at the start and jump into the kindergarten to pick up the kangaroo cubs from the kindergarten. And, also jumping, they return to the start. Whoever jumps faster is the winner.

"Magic Pencils"

Two plastic boxes with the following inscriptions are placed on the starting line: a walnut is a prize for the winner, a hazelnut is a prize for the losing player.

Now take two identical pencils and tie them to a thick woolen thread of the same length (about 3 m each).

Two players compete to see who can wind the thread around a pencil the fastest. Prizes are awarded based on the results of the competition.

"Merry Orchestra"

Everything that plays in the house (guitar, balalaika, tambourine, pipe) and even creaks, rustles, rattles (spoons, saucepans, metal lids, metal cans with pennies, etc.), we distribute to children and adults.

Let's play a funny children's song. Everyone starts playing, singing and dancing together. Under this amazing cacophony (chaotic accumulation) of sounds, the result is “outrageous” fun.

To successfully entertain children as young as age, you can use various games or competitions. These types of fun have proven themselves well during birthday celebrations or New Year's Eve. There are fun competitions for children aged 11-12 and entertainment, regardless of the number of people who want to participate.

The advantages of holding competitions and fun games are that, first of all, children develop in play mode, they will not get bored and funny moments can be remembered for a lifetime. It is important to choose the right competition or game, taking into account the age of the participants.

Where to begin?

Before holding competitions, it is advised to prepare everything in advance, paying attention to safety precautions, since during games or competitions children will run, jump, or crawl on their knees. To conduct entertaining activities at home, you will need to do the following:

1. Make room for fun and gaming programs. To do this, it is worth squeezing out movable furniture.
2. To hide any sharp objects and existing furniture corners in advance, use something soft.
3. Remove glassware that is at risk from accidental shock.
4. Some attentive owners even remove the chandelier; children at that age are active.

If the entertainment program is held in specially created places, then such problems are eliminated, since everything has already been thought out in advance. If it's a summer day outside, then most competitions can be held outside.

The games themselves should not bore young dreamers, as the fun can turn into boring and silent gatherings.

In order to diversify a birthday or other holiday, there is a special selection of games in the form of competitions for both boys and girls.

It is important to take into account certain nuances of age

If a child is 11-12 years old, they are no longer the kids they were before, but more mature. They will no longer be interested in simple funny competitions. The program should be thought out more carefully, especially when the holiday will be held at home.

At this age, children consider themselves adults. And they may not be interested in entertainment for younger people. These factors should be taken into account before selecting entertainment activities for teenagers.

Who is faster "One, two, three"

Almost everyone can take part in such fun. To hold it, you will need to purchase and prepare in advance a certain number of small surprises in the form of souvenirs.

This competition requires a host (adult) to lead the entire event. All children participating in the entertainment must stand in a circle. When the music is turned on, the children participating in the entertainment begin to move in a circle. The presenter places a souvenir (gift) in the center of the circle.

During the circular movement of the children, the toastmaster calls different numbers, the children should not react to this, but when they hear the words: “one, two, three! ", then they will have to try to take the souvenir.

The competition can be held a certain number of times, depending on the bags with prepared gifts. By the way, the child who received the gift leaves the circle to give others the opportunity to receive gifts.

golden goose

It is more practical to hold the competition in question on a birthday. Participants stand in a circle, and each of them tells his neighbor the name of the body part to which he must “stick” to the next neighbor.

An example would be the following expressions: “right hand”, “left knee”, “nose”, “back”, “ear”, “left heel” and so on. All participants take turns taking the indicated places and in such positions you need to shout the phrase “congratulations!” three times. The main condition is to make sure that no one falls. This cheerful beginning perfectly helps even the most gloomy participants to relax.

Can of sardines

Interested participants are divided in advance into groups of equal size. They must choose their catcher. He is given an elastic band, it must be tied in the form of a ring. Its size should depend on the number of participants in one group.

Participants (“sardines”) are asked to take a seat on a designated area of ​​a virtual pond. At the beginning of the game, the catcher must put the rubber band on the first player, then move to the other player and do the same. The action is repeated until all the “sardines” are caught. The winner will be the one who can quickly collect all team members into a rubber band ring (“net”).

Hurdle Dance

The game is divided into two stages. This is a fun number for both children and adults.

A rope is pulled, it should be located at a height of about 1 meter, and the other should be 50 cm from the floor surface. The placement can not be done clearly, one thread over the other. If the apartment is small, then two people will be required to hold the ends of the rope with their hands.

After turning on dance music, it is better to turn on fun music. Several participants will have to step over the bottom rope and crawl under the top rope. If the number of guests is small, then it may be more practical to make this “competition” in several circles.

In the second stage, participants are blindfolded and have to overcome the lower and upper obstacles blindly. At the beginning, when the music turns on, you need to quietly remove the ropes and watch the participants - it will be fun and the joke will lift everyone’s spirits.

Competition "Inhabit the House"

To participate, you need to recruit volunteers and divide them into two parts. These will be teams that compete with each other. To carry out the necessary event, you will need to set up an easel with a Whatman paper placed on it; it is recommended to draw houses that have windows and doors on it.

The participants' task is to draw silhouettes of people living in the house. You can use an example, which the presenter should show at the beginning so that the participants know how to draw little people correctly.

After the “start”, each participant in the competition must pick up a pencil and, running to his easel, quickly draw the silhouette of a small man (in the doorway or window) and return to his old place, passing the pencil to the next participant. 3 minutes are allocated for this game.

Those participants who draw the most people in the allotted time will win.

Frozen Artist

During this competition, the host asks two people to participate. They will have to show their drawing skills using felt-tip pens, but they don’t have to draw at all. Those who volunteer prepare a felt-tip pen for drawing and freeze in one place in a motionless pose.

Next, two more participants are called. They are given a piece of album paper, pre-attached to a more solid base in the form of cardboard (for convenience during the competition). The point of the game is that some hold the markers, while others begin to draw on the leaves, only by moving the leaves themselves.

Those present order two drawings for each couple, for example, to depict the birthday boy or his house, depending on their imagination. Both couples try to draw more clearly what they asked for. The competition turns out to be very funny.

How to dress blind?

A number of interested persons are invited to participate in pairs. Children receive bags of clothes. But it is pre-prepared in large sizes. This is necessary for dressing more freely.

Next, one participant in each pair is blindfolded. His task will be to take out the clothes that are in the bag and put them on his partner. The participant who is dressing should not provide any prompts.

About 3 minutes are allocated for giving hints. During the allotted time, you should try to put on as many clothes as possible. The couple who wears the most clothes wins.

Mitten

A large box is placed in the central part of the room where the competition is held. It should have simple mittens.

Pairs of volunteers are invited to participate. They should stand in a circle and when the music turns on, start moving around the circle. After the music suddenly turns off, you need to quickly run to the large box and put on a pair of mittens. The point is that each contestant has a pair of mittens in the box, and one has only one mitten.

When, after putting on the mittens, it turns out that someone did not get a pair, the participant should leave the circle and take one mitten from someone. The mittens are put back in the box, and the contestants stand in a circle, and the music turns on... The winner goes to the one who grabs the last mitten.

Summarizing

It is important to understand that no fun will go smoothly and cheerfully without games or competitions. Children have always loved competitions and will enjoy taking part in the games. The main condition is the correct selection, depending on the age of the guests.

Before everything, you should study the information, using your initiative and imagination. As a result, you can get a solution to all issues that children will happily appreciate. It is important to consider the place where the games will be held, as well as the time of year; there is a difference when it is June or November.

You can prepare several gaming competitions in advance, excluding pauses. It is worth noting that when preparing for games and fun, you won’t need a lot of consumables. A holiday that is made using your own strength looks exciting and interesting.

golden goose

The name apparently comes from an old fairy tale in which everyone was glued to each other (the first one in the chain had a magic goose). Guests should be placed in a circle and asked to name some part of the body: “right knee”, “left heel”, “nose”, “chin”, “back”, “back of the head”. After that, on the count of THREE, you need to stick to the neighbor on the right with this very part. The location of gluing does not matter, as long as you don’t fall.

In this form, everyone should shout “Congratulations!” three times. A cheerful start to the holiday helps you quickly relax.

Fun photo shoot with a mustache

I like this activity because the photos always turn out funny, and people pose much more artistically. False mustaches, beards and crowns can be made from colored cardboard.

Dancing with obstacles

First stage. We stretch one rope at a height of 1 meter, and the other at a height of 50 cm from the floor. You can move them a little, not one above the other. As a rule, there is no place to tie in the apartment; you have to hold the ends of the upper and lower ropes in your right and left hands.

Now we turn on dance music (preferably fast Latin) and ask you to step over the bottom rope and crawl under the top rope. If there are few guests, several dance circles.

Second phase. We blindfold two participants tightly and ask them to overcome obstacles. We are quietly removing the ropes... all that remains is to observe the efforts of the careful dancers.

Frozen Artist

Presenter: “We need two people who can draw well.” He gives them a felt-tip pen: “Only today you won’t need this, I’ll put a spell on you. Imagine that there is an invisible sheet of paper in front of you, prepare a felt-tip pen and... freeze!”

We call the other two participants, to whom we give a landscape sheet (it is better to attach it to a solid base). The idea is for artists with felt-tip pens to stand motionless, and their assistants move the sheet along the tip of the felt-tip pen, trying to capture a drawing that everyone can understand. It could be a portrait of the birthday person, a birthday cake with candles, or just a house with a tree and the sun. Everything turns out funny, try it!

Siamese twins

You need to write some part of the body on the cards, call all the guests and line them up in pairs. Each pair draws a card and sticks with the body part they were given, like Siamese twins. Toes, heels, backs of heads, elbows, knees, backs. Now you need to tie a scarf to each other. Let one pair perform, the rest just watch. The one who had the most difficult situation wins. Try putting a scarf on your “twin” if your backs are stuck together...

What did you do there?

The game is equally fun among both children and adults, since it’s hard to think of anything more fun than random coincidences of questions and answers.

We write on the signs:“Dentist’s office”, “Director’s office”, “Toilet”, “Bathhouse”, “Bakery”, “Cinema”, “Post Office”, “Park”, “Zoo”, “Theater”, “Barbershop”, “Basement” , “Construction site”, “Kindergarten”, “Pension fund”, “Desert island”, “Fitness club”.

The player stands with his back to the guests, and the host places a sign with one of these inscriptions on his back. The guests know what they are talking about, but the “lucky one” answers at random. Players can be changed. Here is a sample list of questions (you cannot answer “yes” or “no”):

• Do you go there often? (Every Friday, three times a week, rarely but with pleasure)
• Do you like this place? (It can be better, I still don’t understand for sure)
• Who do you usually go there with?
• Which famous people would you like to meet there?
• What do you usually take with you there? Name three things.
• What do you usually do there?
• Why did you choose this place?

We change the sign and the player. It’s fun when you go to kindergarten once a month with Alla Pugacheva, take a laptop and a toothbrush with you, practice ballet there or eat pizza)

Downed pilots

I once held this game on February 23 at school, but all the spectators were so carried away that I boldly suggest organizing it at a birthday party. Oddly enough, it’s exciting.

We make 5-6 paper airplanes, and put about 20 paper lumps in a basket. One person launches airplanes (choose the longest side in the room), everyone else tries to shoot down the flying airplanes. If this is a competition to identify the winner, we give each person 5 attempts.

Fashion show

It can be held at the moment when you want to invite guests to the table. Line them up against the opposite wall and solemnly announce (no need to hand out roles in advance): “The following have arrived for the gala dinner: a famous yogi, a dancer from the east, Baba Yaga, a fairy-tale Princess, an Ogre, the rat Shushera, a Ballerina from the Bolshoi Theater, a one-legged Pirate, the President of Russia , a bodybuilding champion, a famous supermodel (actress), a baby who learned to walk today.

All guests need to walk a few steps in character and sit down at the table.

Unlucky sculptor

There is no need to tell anyone the name of the competition in advance, otherwise the meaning will become clear, and we don’t need that. All guests must go to another room, leaving only the host and three players. You appoint one as a sculptor and ask him to put the other two in the most uncomfortable positions. For example, let the first one freeze, doing push-ups from the floor in the top position, and the second one sit on his back, clasping his hands behind him. And now the presenter changes the one who has the hardest time in the new sculpture to the sculptor himself. Since you yourself invented torture for others, take the rap :-).

Now you can start one new player from another room. Now it is the sculptor who must examine the previous strange statue and create his new one, again coming up with complex poses. We repeat everything, the sculptor takes the place of the victim himself. It always turns out funny, try it! Naturally, all other guests enter one by one and remain in the room until the end of the game.

Snowman

Line up several people (4-6) behind each other, sideways to the guests. Show the last player a simple drawing of a snowman and ask him to draw THIS on the back of the previous player. He tries to understand what was depicted to him, draws on his back what he understood (silently). So we get to the first in this line, who must depict the initial drawing on blank paper. Usually the snowman turns into a face :-). The rest of the details are lost along the way.

Guess the soft toy

Thanks to the oddities of soft toy manufacturers, this competition turns out to be funny. We blindfold the player and ask him to guess what he is holding in his hands. For example, when we asked to identify a snake in a Santa Claus hat with a gift bag, the girl said that it was a snail. Guests are always surprised that they were unable to guess such an obvious animal. It’s funnier if a person comments out loud on his guesses.

What would the Indians call you?

This is not a competition, just a reason to laugh at the table while eating cake. These are joke names that the Indians might give you. The first column is the first letter of the name, the second column is the first letter of the surname.

Changelings

Solving the shifters is fun. Let me remind you that this is:

Milk boils over standing sand (which in translation means “Water does not flow under a lying stone”).

Questions and answers

This is absolutely a win-win entertainment. Tested at thousands of children's and adult parties. I found a site that has a selection of questions and answers that are relatively appropriate for birthdays for 12-14 year olds.

This is how it should be done. It is enough for only the presenter to have questions; you can read them in a row. But the answers should be printed on separate pieces of paper and guests should be invited to draw out a piece of paper at random: “Do you brush your teeth?” - “Yes, I have many talents...”

Drawing 3D

Nowadays creative master classes are popular even among adults, so let’s not lag behind. I like that this particular drawing ALWAYS works for EVERYONE, and it looks very impressive. What do you need? Album sheets for each person, a simple pencil, markers and 5-7 minutes of time.

Place your left palm on the sheet and trace along the outline with a pencil. Now take a felt-tip pen of any color and draw parallel lines at a distance of 1 cm from each other. Just a straight line from the edge of the paper, and where the outline of the hand begins, you need to draw an arc. After the outline of the hand, continue the straight line. From the picture, I think everything is clear. It turns out a real 3D drawing! I think it's great!

Using felt-tip pens of other colors, we repeat the bends of the first lines, this is already quite simple. If you put a date on the picture and hang it in a frame, you will remember for a long time what a good time you had with your friends on your birthday.
