Snowball Didactic game "Snowball" for senior preschool age Snowball game rules

All participants in the game sit or stand in a circle so that all the players can see each other. Participants take turns saying their names. Each subsequent player calls the names of all previous players, adding his own to them. For example: the first participant calls his name, the second - the name of the first and his own, the third - the name of the first, the name of the second and his own, and so on until the last player, who must name the names of everyone who is in the circle.

Game options:

a. In addition to his name, each player names a quality that begins with the first letter of the name and corresponds to his character.

For example: Vera is fidelity, Sergey is brave, Natalya is tender ...

b. Each player, calling his name, accompanies him with some kind of gesture.

in. Each player, calling his name, enters the circle of players, making some kind of movement - waving his hand, limping, bowing, etc. Following him, all the players take a step in a circle, calling the name of the previous player and repeating his movement.

When conducting all variants of the "Snowball", be sure to change or rearrange the players each time, this helps to remember more names.

Use the General Quality game to move players. By changing the participants several times, you can use a different version of the "Snowball", etc.

Game "general quality"

All players sit or stand in a circle. One of them - the leader, does not have enough space. It is called some quality that several players have. They must swap places with each other.

For example: Swap those with dark hair. All dark-haired participants switch places. At the time of transplantation, the leader tries to take an empty seat. If he succeeds, his role passes to the player who did not have enough space.

When the facilitator says the phrase "Overall quality" all players should change places.

Game options:

a. Fruit salad game.

Each participant receives a card with a picture of one of the fruits (pear, apple, plum, etc.). Further, the game is similar to the previous one, only instead of the phrase "General quality", the host says "Fruit Salad".

GAME "INTERVIEW"

All participants sit or stand in a circle. At the command of the leader, the players count on the first or second and form pairs. The first one interviews the second participant on the right, and he gives an interview to the second participant on the left. Then, all participants in a circle talk about their neighbors, calling them by name.

Game options:

a. The game "We are similar and not similar."

After a five-minute interview, the participants take turns talking about themselves, starting their speech with the words "We are similar ...". In the next round, the key phrase with which the participants will begin their speech is "We are not alike ..."

THE GAME "THE WIZARD IS COMING TO US"

Participants are given pens and paper. They are given the following situation: "A wizard has come to you. He can fulfill your seven wishes, which you must write on pieces of paper, starting with the words" I want.

For three minutes, participants write down their desires on paper.

Game options:

a. As a variant of the game, you can invite a group of participants to determine 7 common desires from all sounded.

GAME "RADIO STATION"

All participants sit or stand in a circle. The leaders set the rhythm of the task - two claps, two swings of the arms, bent at the elbows and with clenched fists. Who can comfortably raise their thumbs.

Two claps are given for reflection, and for each movement of the hands, the participant says his name twice. During the transmission of the "radiogram", the participant calls his name and the name of the person to whom he transfers the right to play the game.

For example: cotton-cotton SEREZHA-SEREZHA, cotton-cotton SEREZHA-SEREZHA, cotton-cotton SEREZHA-NATASHA, cotton-cotton NATASHA-NATASHA, etc.

As you probably already guessed - the player who receives the "radiogram" first says the name of the one who transmitted the "radiogram", and then his own. Etc.

If the participant who receives the "radiogram" hesitates or makes a mistake, you can take a "fant" from him, but this is another game.

I don’t understand at all the indignation of mothers about the fact that they are not allowed to breastfeed their children in a public place. For a moment, they don’t give you food, but they don’t let you expose your chest. Of course, a hungry child has the right to satisfy his hunger at any time convenient for him, and his mother has the right to feed her child where and when she sees fit. But why do you need to defiantly expose your chest? If you are a nursing mother, you probably assume that the time will inevitably come to feed your child, so take a cape, scarf, snood, and at least a fan, well, something to cover yourself if necessary. In the end, if it so happened that you don’t have anything with you, step aside, turn away, choose a place that is not so crowded so as not to be embarrassed yourself and not to embarrass people. As for the specific situation in the museum, here the question, in my opinion, is debatable. Here, oddly enough, I am on the side of my mother. Simply because there is absolutely nothing to argue with her. Indeed, what kind of indecency in connection with the exposure of the chest can we talk about if families with children come to the Tretyakov Gallery and do not turn away in embarrassment from the paintings of Rembrandt, David Michelangelo without a fig leaf, do not close the children's eyes, etc. But this is so, as trolling, to annoy the museum administration and the public. In general, I would not drag a baby into a public place during the flu season, and then, if the incident took place precisely in Tretyakov Gallery, then sometimes there are such queues at the cashier, sometimes you can stand on the street for an hour. Why torture a child. And then, after all, it would be possible to step aside again, why feed the baby defiantly in a crowd of people? Feeding babies is such an intimate moment that does not tolerate extraneous looks, strangers, not always positive thoughts, and so on. But this, of course, is a personal matter for everyone. I don’t know all the details, but if I were the museum staff, I wouldn’t quarrel with a nursing mother for anything, and if her behavior, in their opinion, somehow violated the order established in the museum, I would (if I were an employee) offered her stole, scarf, or would take her to a more secluded place. Well, if a nursing mother would start a scandal in response to my (as a museum employee) proposals, defending her rights, she would leave her alone. Why take sin on the soul, enter into a skirmish with her, make her nervous, in the end, everything will affect the baby, it turns out that with your actions you harm the baby, what is it for?

Do you want to make your New Year's holiday especially memorable? Set it up in nature. In this case, firstly, your creative fantasies will not be limited by the size of the apartment, and secondly, you will be able to come up with an interesting scenario, for example, about how forest animals decided to celebrate in their forest New Year. Choose a sunny, not too cold day and go to the forest, park or yard. The main condition is to find a real live Christmas tree. Tell the children something like this tale: “The forest dwellers decided to celebrate the New Year together. “People cut down our Christmas trees and take them home. And we are worse? - said the animals. We don't need to cut anything. We have our own Christmas tree. You just need to dress it up. "The forest dwellers found a beautiful Christmas tree and let's decorate it with snow and icicles. Squirrels hung dried nuts and mushrooms, bunnies adjusted carrots, and bullfinches sat on branches like red lanterns. Animals gathered near the Christmas tree and began to dance, dance round dances, yes play games..."

Snowball we all roll,

We all count to five.

One, two, three, four, five -

Why don't we spendsong contest? In advance, write one winter word on pieces of paper (“frost”, “snow maiden”, “snowflake”, “snow”, “winter”, etc.) Now each child draws lots and sings a song where this word occurs.

"Running in felt boots"

Children are divided into two teams. Instead of bags, they are given huge boots of Santa Claus (you can give out slippers). Children need to run to the Christmas tree and back in felt boots and pass the boots to the next participants in the competition. You can arrange such a competition around the Christmas tree.

"Catch the snowballs"

Children are divided into pairs. One has a basket without a handle (a bucket, a beautiful box), the second has a bag with snowballs (sewn from cotton wool and fabric). Each child throws a snowball to their partner. He tries to catch a snowball with a basket. If the snowball flew past, it can no longer be lifted. The winner is the pair that has the most snowballs in the basket in a certain time (you can turn on the music).

"Catch the Winter Word"

Invite the children to clap their hands when they hear a word related to winter: blizzard, rubber ring, winter, snow, Monday, Christmas tree, sea, sled, Santa Claus, autumn leaves, bicycle, snowman, dolphin, icicle, snowflake, scissors, Snow Maiden, firecrackers, vacuum cleaner, gifts, skis, etc.

"Draw a snowman"

On a large sheet of paper, each child with eyes closed draws a snowman with felt-tip pens. The snowman will turn out even funnier if you divide the children into 2 teams and one of the participants will need to draw the head, the second torso, the third legs and arms, etc. You can invite one of the teams to draw a Christmas tree.

"Balloon"

Each participant in the game is given a balloon. Children throw the ball up and try not to let it fall (but you can’t pick up the ball).

"Blow off balloon»

A balloon is placed on the table. The first person is called. He is blindfolded, twisted in place. Then the child, without looking, approaches the balloon and blows on it. Most likely, the child will not blow on the ball, but by.

"Pack the Gift"

2-3 children are welcome. They are invited to pack a gift (small box) in a festive package. And our festive packaging will be ... toilet paper, which needs to be wrapped in a quality box.

"In warm mittens"

Children take turns putting on thick mittens, dipping their hands into a bag of different toys and trying to feel what they got.

"Bypass Obstacles"

Skittles are placed on the floor. Children are divided into 2 teams. It is necessary blindfolded to reach the end of the room, trying not to knock down a single skittle.

A variant of this game - children stand one after another in a train and go around the pins from one side or the other. You can do this task blindfolded.
"Who's got snow?"

The driver becomes in the center. The rest of the participants in the game form a tight circle around the driver. Behind their backs they pass a snowball (made of cloth and cotton wool). The driver carefully watches the players and at any moment can say: “Stop!”. If the driver has guessed who has the snowball now, the owner of the snowball takes his place. If you didn’t guess, then the one who the driver mistakenly pointed to becomes the center.

"Twins"

Two children stand side by side and hug their partner with one arm around the waist. It turns out a sort of fat man with two heads, two arms and four legs. Children in pairs receive a task, for example, fold a piece of paper in half and then in half again. It is not simple! After all, the hands are from different people! Tasks for other couples can be as follows: get dressed, swaddle a doll, make a pear, etc.

"Work as Santa Claus"

This contest requires a makeshift tunnel, which can be made by sewing the sheet around the edges. The first participant is given a Santa Claus hat and a bag with gifts. He needs to crawl into this tunnel (which is held by adults from 2 sides), while trying not to lose the bag and cap. Put all the gifts out of the bag under the tree and climb back into the tunnel. Pass the bag and cap to the next participant. He again crawls through the tunnel, but with an empty bag. And under the Christmas tree - fills the bag with gifts and comes back, etc.

This game can be played by timing each participant or by dividing the children into teams (but then 2 tunnels are required).
