Fox games for the new year. Methodological development "New Year's games at the Christmas tree". Free the tree from the needles

1. Tiger tail

All players line up, holding the belt or shoulders of the person in front of them. The first in this line is the head of the "tiger", the last is the "tail". At a signal, the “tail” begins to catch up with the “head”, which tries to escape. The task of the rest of the “body” of the tiger is not to disengage. After several attempts of the "tail" to catch up with the "head", the children change places and roles.

2. Smeshinka

Each player gets a name: snowflake, cracker, Christmas tree, tiger, candle, flashlight, etc. All names must be associated with the New Year. One facilitator is selected, who asks various questions to everyone in turn. The facilitator should not know the names of the participants. Participants answer any question of the presenter with their own name.

For example:

Who are you? - Snowflake - What do you have (points to his nose)? - Flashlight - What do you like to eat? - Herringbone

Whoever laughs is out of the game.

Alternatively, the one who laughs must guess a riddle or complete some task. After the first round, you can change the names of the participants, choose another leader and continue the game until it gets boring.

3. Postmen

Team game. In front of each team, at a distance of 5-7 meters, there is a thick sheet of paper on the floor, divided into cells in which the endings of names are written (cha; nya; la, etc.). Another sheet of paper with the first half of the names of the names is pre-cut into pieces in the form of postcards, which are folded into shoulder bags.

The first numbers of the teams put the bags on their shoulders, at the signal of the leader they rush to the paper sheet on the floor - the addressee, take out a postcard with the first half of the name from the bag and attach it to the desired ending. When they return, they pass the bag to the next player on their team. The team whose mail finds its addressee faster wins the game.

4. Travel in the dark

This game will require skittles and blindfolds according to the number of participants. Team game. Skittles are arranged in a "snake" in front of each team.

The results of the competition are summed up at the table, or when presenting gifts.

11. Snowball

The redemption of New Year's prizes from Santa Claus's bag can be arranged as follows. In a circle, both adults and children pass a specially prepared "snowball" - made of cotton wool, or white fabric. "Kom" is transmitted and Santa Claus says:

We all roll a snowball, We all count to five - One, two, three, four, five - You sing a song. Or: And you read poetry. Or: You dance dance. Or: You guess a riddle ...

The person who bought the prize leaves the circle, and the game continues on.

12. There are Christmas trees

We decorated the Christmas tree with different toys, and in the forest different Christmas trees grow, both wide and low, tall, thin. Now, if I say "high" - raise your hands up. "Low" - squat and lower your arms. "Wide" - make the circle wider. "Thin" - make a circle already. And now let's play! (The host plays, trying to confuse the children).

13. Telegram to Santa Claus

The guys are asked to name 13 adjectives: "fat", "red", "hot", "hungry", "sluggish", "dirty" ... When all the adjectives are written down, the presenter takes out the text of the telegram and inserts the missing adjectives from the list into it .

Text of the telegram: "... Grandfather Frost! All... the children are looking forward to your... arrival. New Year is the most... holiday of the year. We will sing for you... songs, dance... dances "Finally, it's... New Year! How I hate to talk about... studies. We promise that we will only get... grades. So open your... bag as soon as possible and give us... gifts." With respect to you... boys and... girls!"

14. Let's make caps

Santa Claus invites the participants of the game to look at a set of jars of various sizes and shapes from afar. You cannot take them in hand. Each player has a piece of cardboard, from which they must cut the lids so that they fit exactly into the holes of the cans. The winner is the one who has more lids exactly matched the holes of the cans.

15. Little pigs

For this contest, prepare some delicate dish - for example, jelly. The task of the participants is to eat it as quickly as possible using matches or toothpicks.

16. Smeshinka

Each player gets some name, say, a cracker, a lollipop, an icicle, a garland, a needle, a flashlight, a snowdrift ... The driver goes around everyone in a circle and asks various questions:

Who are you? - Flapper. - What holiday is today? - Lollipop. - And what is it with you (pointing to the nose)? - Icicle. - And what drips from the icicle? - Garland...

Each participant must answer any questions with their "name", while the "name" can be inflected accordingly. Questioners should not laugh. Whoever laughs is out of the game and gives up his phantom. Then a drawing of tasks for forfeits is held.

17. Mask, I know you

The leader puts on a mask to the player. The player asks different questions to which it receives answers - hints:

This animal? - Not. - Human? - Not. - Bird? - Yes! - Homemade? - Well no. - Does she cackle? - Not. - Quacking? - Yes! - It's a duck!

The one who guesses correctly gets the mask itself as a prize.

18. Harvest

The task of the players of each team is to transfer oranges to a certain place as quickly as possible without the help of hands. Santa Claus is the leader. He gives the start and announces the winner.

19. Tear the newspaper

Santa Claus chooses 2 contestants. The task is to tear the newspaper as soon as possible and smaller. With one hand, right or left, it doesn’t matter - tear the newspaper into small pieces, while the hand is stretched forward, you can’t help with your free hand. Who will do the job less.

20. Fairy tale

When you have gathered at least 5-10 guests (age does not matter), offer them this game. Take a children's book with a fairy tale (the simpler - the better, ideal - "Ryaba Hen", "Kolobok", "Turnip", "Teremok", etc.). Choose a leader (he will be a reader). Write out all the heroes of the fairy tale from the book on separate sheets, including, if the number of people allows, trees, stumps, a river, buckets, etc. All guests pull pieces of paper with roles. The host begins to read the fairy tale, and all the characters "come to life" ....

21. Laughter

Plays any number of participants. All participants in the game, if it is a free area, form a large circle. In the center - the driver (Santa Claus) with a handkerchief in his hands. He throws the handkerchief up, while he flies to the ground, everyone laughs loudly, the handkerchief is on the ground - everyone subsides. As soon as the handkerchief touched the ground, this is where the laughter begins, and we take a phantom from the funniest ones - this is a song, a verse, etc.

22. Rope

It is necessary that the majority of those gathered before this did not play it. In an empty room, a long rope is taken, and a labyrinth is stretched so that a person, passing, sits down somewhere, steps over somewhere. Having invited another player from the next room, they explain to him that he must go through this labyrinth blindfolded, before that remembering the location of the rope. The audience will tell him. When the player is blindfolded, the rope is removed. The player sets out on a journey by stepping over and crawling under a non-existent rope. Spectators are asked in advance not to give out the secret of the game.

23. Roll

This game will help to get to know all your guests. The guests sitting at the table pass a roll of toilet paper in a circle. Each guest tears off as many scraps as he wants, the more the better. When each guest has a stack of scraps, the host announces the rules of the game: each guest must tell as many facts about himself as he has torn scraps.

24. With signs

At the entrance, each guest receives his new name - a piece of paper with an inscription is attached to his back (giraffe, hippopotamus, mountain eagle, bulldozer, bread slicer, rolling pin, cucumber, etc.). Each guest can read the names of the other guests, but, of course, cannot read the names of himself. The task of each guest is to learn their new name from the others during the evening. Guests can only answer "Yes" or "No" to questions. The first to know what is written on his piece of paper wins.

25. Joke game

All guests stand in a circle and put their hands on each other's shoulders. The host (Santa Claus) says “duck” or “goose” in everyone’s ear (in a scatter, say “duck” more players). Then he explains the rules of the game: “If I now say:“ Goose ”, then all the players whom I called so, draw in one leg. And if“ Duck ”, then the players whom I called“ Duck ”, draw in both legs. A lot is guaranteed to you.

26. Mysterious chest

Each of the two players has their own chest or suitcase containing various items of clothing. The players are blindfolded, and at the command of the leader, they begin to put on things from the chest. The task of the players is to dress up as quickly as possible.

27. Colors

The players become in a circle. The leader commands: "Touch yellow, one, two, three!" Players as quickly as possible try to take hold of the thing (object, part of the body) of the other participants in the circle. Who did not have time - leaves the game. The host repeats the command again, but with a new color. The last one left wins.

28. Ride the ball

All participants of the competition line up in teams of 3 people. Each "troika" of players receives a tight volleyball. At the signal of the leader, one of the players of the trio, supported under the elbows by two other players, stepping on the ball, rolls it. The group that reaches the finish line first wins.

29. Draw the sun

Teams take part in this relay game, each of which lines up in a column "one at a time". At the start, in front of each team, there are gymnastic sticks according to the number of players. In front of each team, at a distance of 5-7 meters, put a hoop. The task of the relay race participants is to alternately, on a signal, running out with sticks, spread them out in rays around their hoop - "draw the sun." The team that completes the task faster wins.

30. Walkers

Participants are invited, standing with one foot on the base of the dumbbell, and with the other, starting from the floor, overcome a given distance.

31. Sculptors

The participants of the game are given plasticine or clay. The host shows or calls a letter, and the players must, as quickly as possible, blind an object whose name begins with this letter.

32. All the way around

Players are invited to try to draw or color something, but with their left hand, and those who are left-handed - with their right.

33. Crumple up the paper

Inventory: Newspapers according to the number of participants. Game: An unfolded newspaper spreads on the floor in front of the players. The task is to crumple the newspaper at the signal of the presenter, trying to collect the entire sheet into a fist. Winner: The participant who gathered the newspaper into a ball the fastest.

34. New Year's game

For the game we need:

Long rope; - threads; - scissors 1 piece; - a bandage on the eyes, so as not to see anything; - children, adults who will play; - and of course gifts for everyone (sweets, decorative toys, soaps, etc.).

We stretch and fasten a long rope (if there is nowhere to fasten it, then someone will have to hold it). We hang our gifts on a long rope with a thread (or, to make it New Year's, we hang it on a Christmas tree rain).

We take a player, blindfold him, give him scissors in his hands, twist him, then direct him towards the hanging gifts so that he can cut off his gift, then the next player, etc.

35. Competition with gifts

The host (adult) or Santa Claus invites the participants - the children to guess what is in the bag - by touch? How many nuts (sweets, etc.) are in the bag? Which animal toy is hidden in the bag? How many pages are in the book? What is the name of the doll, etc. etc.? The one who answers correctly receives this thing as a prize.

36. Game

Santa Claus without a nose is drawn on a large sheet of paper and hung on the wall. Sculpt the nose from plasticine, and the children take turns blindfolded trying to stick the nose in place. In a company of kids, the behavior of the driver usually causes wild joyful laughter.

37. Snowflake

Each child is given a "snowflake", that is, a small ball of cotton wool. Children loosen their snowflakes and, at your signal, launch them into the air and begin to blow on them from below so that they stay in the air as long as possible. The smartest one wins.

38. Dress up the Christmas tree.

They make several Christmas toys from cotton wool (apples, pears, fish) with wire hooks and a fishing rod with the same hook. It is necessary to hang all the toys on the Christmas tree with the help of a fishing rod, and then remove them with the same fishing rod. The winner is the one who manages to do it in a set time, for example, two minutes. A spruce branch fixed on a stand can serve as a herringbone.

39. With a hat

There are different words in the hat; children take it in turns to take out, read and sing lines from songs where these words occur. Songs (and words) should be about winter and new year holiday(herringbone, round dance, frost, hoarfrost, snowflake, icicle, etc.).

40. Associations

Let the guys take turns listing everything that happens in the New Year: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, snow, gifts, Christmas tree, Christmas decorations, cake, needles, on the floor, flashlights and more. The one who runs out of ideas is out of the game, and the most persistent wins. The child for a minute (or any other established time) carefully looks at the tree, and then turns away and lists in as much detail as possible what hangs on it. The one who remembers the most wins. Of course, if the host kid studied his Christmas tree in advance, or even dressed it up himself, then his winnings will not be very fair: he probably shouldn’t compete.

41. Touch

As many toys as possible are put into Santa's bag. Each child puts his hand in there, determines by touch what he caught there, and describes in detail. After everyone has got a toy out of the bag, you can announce that these are New Year's gifts (this, of course, is not improvisation, you took care of the gifts in advance).

42. Ice cream

Most favorite treat Snow Maidens - ice cream. Children take turns naming the types of ice cream. Whoever thinks for more than 5 seconds loses. They pull the rope, various small prizes (toys, sweets, etc.) are hung on strings on it. The participant is blindfolded and given scissors. He must go to the rope and cut off the prize that he can. Then the next participant receives the scissors. And so on until the prizes run out (prepare more of them).

43. Competition: cut a snowflake out of a napkin (paper) as quickly as possible.

44. Build a snowman

To play, you need two flannelgraphs (a board or a frame with a 100x70 cm flannel stretched over them) and parts of the Snowman figure cut out of paper and glued onto the flannel, a carrot nose, a broom, a hat (2 sets). Two compete. Everyone tries to collect their Snowman as soon as possible.

45. Trap

Having run away from the Snowman (or Santa Claus), the children stop and, clapping their hands, say: "One-two-three! One-two-three! Well, hurry up and catch us!" With the end of the text, everyone scatters. Snowman (Santa Claus) is catching up with the children.

46. Playing with rattles

Children, holding rattles in their hands, run in all directions to the cheerful music around the hall. When the music ends, the children stop and hide the rattles behind their backs. The fox (or another character participating in the game) is looking for rattles. She asks the children to show her first one, then the other hand. Children behind their backs shift rattles from one hand to another, as if showing that there is nothing in their hand. The fox is surprised that the rattles have disappeared. The music plays again and the game repeats.

47. Hares and fox

Children follow the text.

Bunnies ran across the forest lawn. These are the bunnies, Bunnies - runaways. (Children-bunnies easily run around the hall.) The bunnies sat in a circle, They dig a root with their paws. These are the bunnies, Bunnies - runaways.

("Bunnies" sit down and perform imitative movements in the text.)

Here is a fox running - Red-haired sister. Looking for where the bunnies are, Bunnies are running around.

(The fox runs between the children, catches up with the kids with the end of the song.)

48. Christmas tree

The game is played by 2 teams of 2 people. At the end of the hall there are 2 boxes for each team: in one, a dismantled Christmas tree, in the other - toys. The first participant must assemble the Christmas tree, the second - decorate it with toys. The team that completes the task the fastest wins.

49. Who will score more snowballs

Two children are playing. Snowballs from cotton wool are scattered on the floor. The children are blindfolded and given a basket each. On a signal, they begin to collect snowballs. The one with the most snowballs wins.

50. Boots

Large boots are placed in front of the Christmas tree. Two children are playing. On a signal, they run around the Christmas tree from different sides. The winner is the one who runs around the Christmas tree faster and puts on boots.

51. Give the snowman a nose

2 stands are placed in front of the Christmas tree, they are attached large sheets with snowmen. Two or more children are involved. They are blindfolded. On a signal, the children should reach the snowmen and stick their nose (it could be a carrot). Other children help with words: to the left, to the right, below, above ...

52. Carry in a bag

A bag is placed in front of the Christmas tree (it is partitioned into 2 parts, one of them has no bottom). Santa Claus calls children who want to ride in a bag. He puts the child in a bag and carries him around the Christmas tree. He puts another child in that part of the bag where there is no bottom. Santa Claus walks around the Christmas tree, and the child remains in place. Santa Claus returns and is “surprised”. The game is repeated.

Several couples are involved. Children stand opposite each other at a distance of approximately 4 meters. One child has an empty bucket, the other has a bag with a certain amount of “snowballs” (tennis or rubber balls). On a signal, the child throws snowballs, and the partner tries to catch them with a bucket. The pair that finishes the game first and collects the most snowballs wins.

54. Guess who I am!

The game is more fun when many guests take part in it at once. The leader is blindfolded, the rest join hands and stand around the "blind". The host claps his hands, and the guests begin to move in a circle. The host claps again - and the circle freezes. Now the host must point to a player and try to guess who it is.

If he manages to do it on the first try, then the one who was guessed leads. As a variant of this game, you can introduce a rule according to which the host can ask the player to reproduce something, portray an animal - bark or meow, etc.

55. Break the Ice

Everyone is divided into two teams, each receives one ice cube (it is desirable that the cubes are the same size). The challenge is to melt the ice as soon as possible. The cube must constantly move from one player to another. Participants can warm it in their hands, rub it, etc. The team that melts the ice first wins.

56. Association run

The person sitting on the edge says two random words aloud. For example: a safe and an orange. The next participant, clockwise, describes aloud the image connecting the second word with the first. For example, "a giant orange rolls out of an open safe" and then names his new invented word, such as "egg".

The third participant connects the second word with the third phrase: "There was an egg under the orange peel", and sets his word. The next one connects this word with the previous one, and so on. So the game goes in a circle. At any time, the host can give the command "Stop" and ask the one on whom the game stopped to repeat the entire chain of words: safe, orange, egg, etc. The child who fails to complete the task is eliminated and the game begins anew.

Games and contests with Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden in round dances and near the Christmas tree

round dances

The traditional New Year's round dance can be complicated, made more entertaining. The leader sets the tone for the round dance, changes the pace of movement, direction. After one or two circles, a round dance can be led by a snake, maneuvering between guests and furniture. The steeper the loops of the snake, the more fun. The leader along the way can come up with various options: include in the chain those who are not participating in the round dance, slow down sharply, etc.

Decorate the Christmas tree

There are two artificial Christmas trees in the hall. - There are only a few minutes left before the New Year, - says the Snow Maiden, - and these Christmas trees have not yet been decorated. Perhaps there are two dexterous people in the hall who will quickly do this. Cardboard toys, papier-mache and other unbreakable toys are laid out on tables 5-6 steps from the Christmas tree. But to complete the task of the Snow Maiden is not so easy.

The Snow Maiden reports that a short circuit has occurred, and the Christmas trees will have to be decorated in the dark (blindfolded). Perhaps someone will hang their toys on a neighbor's tree, but the one whose tree is more elegant will win.

circle toy

Santa Claus invites the participants to stand facing each other. Music begins to play, and a toy, for example, a doll with the image of the Snow Maiden, passes from hand to hand, moves in a circle. The music stops, the transfer of the toy stops. Whoever has the doll left is out of the game. The game continues until one person remains. If there are a lot of players, you can put several dolls in a circle.

Compliments to the Snow Maiden

Santa Claus summons a young man who wants to play, who should compliment the Snow Maiden, taking out matches from an apple completely studded with matches. His Santa Claus gives the player before the start of the competition.

Snowballs

In a suspended (or standing on the floor) basket, you need to throw it from a distance of 6-7 steps 6 " snowballs» - white tennis balls. The one who will cope with this task most accurately will win.

Snowflakes

The Snow Maiden invites several guests to take light cotton snowflakes from the tray. Each player tosses his snowflake and, blowing on it, tries to keep it in the air as long as possible. The one who dropped his fluff can approach a friend and help him complete the task of the Snow Maiden.

magic words

The game is led by the Snow Maiden, she invites two teams of 10 people each, gives them a set of large letters that make up the word "Snow Maiden", Each participant receives one letter. The task is as follows: in the story read by the Snow Maiden, there will be words made up of these letters. As soon as such a word is uttered, the owners of the letters that make it up must come forward and, having rearranged themselves, form this word. The team ahead of the opponents gets a point.

Sample story

There was a fast river. Snow fell on the fields. The mountain behind the village became white. And the bark on the birches sparkled with hoarfrost. Somewhere the sleigh runners creak. Where are they heading?

Centipede racing

In a fairly spacious room, you can hold centipede races. The players are divided into two teams and line up at the back of each other's head, taking in front hands standing for the belt. A chair is placed at the opposite wall, which the chain of players must go around, and then return back. If the chain is broken, the leader can count the team as a loser. The task can be made more difficult and more ridiculous if the teams move half-crouched, if both teams perform the task at the same time.

A variant of this game is "Snake". The "head" - the first in the column - must catch the "tail" that eludes it. Having caught it, the "head" goes to the end of the column, the game is repeated again. The “torn off” chain links are considered losers and are out of the game.

Two Frosts

A group of guys is located at one end of the hall (room) beyond the conditional line. Drivers - Frosts - are in the middle of the hall. They turn to the guys with the words:

We are two young brothers, (Together): Two frosts are remote. - I am Frost-red nose. - I am Blue Nose Frost. Which of you will dare to set off on a journey?

Everyone answers:

We are not afraid of threats, and we are not afraid of frost! The players run to the other side of the hall behind the "home" line. Both Frosts catch and "freeze" those who run across. Those immediately stop at the place where they were “frozen”. Then the Frosts again turn to the players, and they, having answered, run across the hall, helping out the “frozen” ones: they touch them with their hands, and they join the rest.

Auction Santa Claus says:

There is a wonderful tree in our hall. And what toys on it! What do you know about Christmas decorations? This magnificent prize will be given to the person with the last answer. Players take turns saying words. During pauses, the host begins to slowly count: “Clapperboard - one, cracker - two ...” The auction continues.

Prank game

Santa Claus announces to the audience that none of those present will be able to repeat after him the three short phrases that he will say. Of course, no one will agree with him. Then Santa Claus, as if looking for words, utters a short phrase. For example: "Today is a wonderful evening." Everyone confidently repeats this phrase. Santa Claus, embarrassed, looks for and uncertainly says the second phrase. It is also easily repeated by everyone. Then he quickly and joyfully says: “So you made a mistake!” The crowd is protesting. And Santa Claus explains that his third phrase, which had to be repeated, was: “So you made a mistake!”

Two are better than one

Any three toys are placed on the floor: a ball, a cube, a pin. Two players come out and start dancing around them (the game can be played to music). As soon as the music stops or Santa Claus gives the command "Stop!", each player should try to grab two toys. Whoever gets one loses. The game can be complicated: increase the number of participants and, accordingly, the number of toys or objects. Whoever grabs the most toys wins.

Under a lucky star

The winner of this game will be the one who first finds a star hanging from the ceiling with a number announced by the host. Stars with a large number written on both sides are pre-hung on threads from the ceiling of the room (or hall) where the dances will take place. As the dance progresses, the music stops for a minute, and Santa Claus proclaims: “Lucky Star - 15!” The dancers try to quickly find a star with this number. The winner is awarded a prize.

Watch your back

Santa Claus or the Snow Maiden gives various commands to those standing in a circle, and they must be carried out only if the word “please” is added to the command, for example, “Please put your hands up”, “Lower your right hand!”, “Please clap your hands” and etc. The game is fun, at a fast pace. Those who make a mistake are out of the game. The remaining one is awarded the title of “Most Attentive Guest” and a prize is awarded.

Letter to Santa Claus

Children are asked to name 13 adjectives: "fat", "red", "hot", "hungry", "sluggish", "dirty"...

When all the adjectives are written down, the presenter takes out the text of the letter and inserts the missing adjectives from the list into it. Telegram text:

"... Grandfather Frost! All... the children are looking forward to your... arrival. New Year is the most... holiday of the year. We will sing... songs for you, dance... dances! Finally- then it's... New Year's Eve! How I hate to talk about... studies. We promise that we will only get... grades. So, open your... bag as soon as possible and give us... gifts. Regards to you... boys and... girls!"

Santa Claus is coming to us

In this game, it is proposed to first memorize the text:

Santa Claus is coming, Santa Claus is coming to us, Santa Claus is coming to us. And we know that Santa Claus brings us gifts.

After the text has been repeated, it is proposed to replace words with movements and gestures. The first words that are replaced are the word "we". Instead of these words, everyone points to themselves. With each new performance, there are fewer words, and more gestures. Instead of the words "Santa Claus" everyone points to the door, the word "goes" is replaced by walking on the spot, the word "know" - touch the forehead with the index finger, the word "gifts" - a gesture depicting a large bag. At the last performance, all words disappear, except for prepositions and the verb "will bring."

It's me. it's me, it's all my friends...

The host, having learned the questions in advance, asks them to the children, who answer with the same phrase. Many more questions can be asked. The main thing is to have fun.

- Who walks to school like a merry gang every day? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. - Which of you, say aloud, catches flies at the lesson? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. - Who is not afraid of frost, flies like a bird on skates? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. - Which of you, when you grow up, will only go to astronauts?

It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. - Which of you keeps books, pens and notebooks in order? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. “Which of you kids walks dirty to the ears?” It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. - Which one of you walks upside down on the pavement? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. “Which one of you, I want to know, has five diligence?” It's me, it's me, it's all my friends. How many of you come to class an hour late? It's me, it's me, it's all my friends.

What is on the tree?

The facilitator memorizes the following rhymes in advance. You can come up with many more new ones. The task of the game is explained to the children: when you hear the name of a Christmas tree toy, you need to raise your hand up and say: “Yes!”, And when something that does not happen on the Christmas tree is called, you must restrain yourself and remain silent. The facilitator does not pronounce the text very quickly, but also without giving the children time to think too much. Very soon it becomes funny to everyone, because mistakes inevitably occur.

What changed?

This game requires good visual memory. Participants are offered a task in turn: for a minute, examine the toys hanging on one or two branches of the Christmas tree and remember them. Then you need to leave the room - at this time, several toys (three or four) will outweigh: some will be removed, others will be added. Entering the room, you need to examine your branches and say what has changed. Depending on age, you can complicate and simplify tasks.

Game for the New Year's round dance (Condition: the leader reads poetry, and the participants in the game say "and I" after those quatrains, where appropriate).

I love to walk in the snow And I love to play snowballs. I love skiing, I also love skating. I love to sing, play and dance in winter and summer. And I also like to chew sweets Right with a candy wrapper. I love to fly on a sled So that the wind whistles ... Today I put on a warm fur coat inside out. I guessed riddles And received gifts, I ate a lot of sweet apples, I didn’t get bored for a minute! Both girls and boys In a round dance rather run, And fluffy bunnies Sleep under the Christmas tree in the snow. So our feet danced, Even the floor began to creak, And in the forest in his lair Before spring, the bear fell asleep. Our Christmas tree is full of toys. Ah, what a beauty! The cracker clapped loudly, And inside it is empty. I will never forget this New Year's holiday. I've been composing all day today - It's rubbish!

New Year's round dance (The host or Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden recite the chant, and the participants in the round dance repeat the chorus).

We seem to be in a wonderful fairy tale Or maybe in a dream. Who is there in a terrible mask Approaching me? Chorus: I don't recognize you, But don't stand still! I dance and sing, Let's dance together! Hares, squirrels, fairies, wolves... This is a disguised people. We dance around the green Christmas tree. Chorus: Our Christmas tree is so beautiful, All in toys and lights. Lights shine playfully, Are reflected in the eyes. Chorus: Santa Claus dances with us And the Snow Maiden sings. This is a meeting with miracles, This is a holiday, New Year!

Interesting and funny contests and games for the New Year's holiday in kindergarten.

Simple and exciting new year games for preschoolers.

Become!

Santa Claus lines up some of the children on some basis: by height, by hair length, by strength, etc. And the task of the rest of the children is to guess which criterion he chose.

Fourth is redundant.

Santa Claus puts a doll, a bear, a plate, a cube in front of the children. Then he asks: “What is superfluous and why?” That's right, a plate is a dish, and all other items are toys.

Chamomile

Santa Claus takes out a camomile made of paper. There should be as many petals as there are children. Funny tasks are written on the back of each petal. Children tear off the petals and begin to fulfill them: they walk in single file, crow, jump on one leg, sing a song, repeat a tongue twister ... And Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden give them gifts.

Head, shoulders, knees

Santa Claus asks: “Guys, do you remember where your head is?” - "Yes!" “Then put your hands on your head. So wonderful! Now onto the shoulders. Excellent. (Santa Claus performs all the commands with the children.) And - knees. Well done! And now be careful: I will say one thing, but show (completely different. Try not to get lost! ”

Santa Claus takes his head with his hands and says at the same time: “Knees!” etc.

Cats and mice

Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden arrange chairs in a circle, with the seats facing inward. Half of the children sit on chairs - they will be "mice". Let the rest stand behind - these are “cats”. One "cat" should not have enough "mouse", that is, she will have to stand behind an empty chair. She winks at some strange "mouse". The task of this "mouse" is to run across and sit on empty chair. And the task of the “cat” standing behind is to prevent her from doing this. If you didn’t keep it, let him now wink at another “mouse”. Of course, the kids will certainly want to be both a “cat” and a “mouse”. And therefore, after some time, Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden will change their roles.

Princess on the Pea

Santa Claus says: “Sometimes people don’t even assume that they are actually princes or princesses. And it also happens that they guess about it, but do not know how to make sure. And today you have a rare opportunity to find out who is who. First, let's check if there are princesses among us. Who is first?" One of the girls is called. Santa Claus says: “In the fairy tale“ The Princess and the Pea ”, the future princess felt a pea through 9 mattresses. Now the task is much easier: without the help of hands, determine how many lollipops you are sitting on.” Santa Claus puts a bag of 3-7 sweets on a chair , the girl sits down ... It is not always possible to determine the number.To not be offended, the host says: "No, you are not a princess, but a countess."

If a boy raises his hand, Santa Claus says: “In order to choose a prince, we will hold another competition in which you can show your strength in fair combat.”

Reach for the prize

And this competition can be held by the Snow Maiden. The winner of the previous competition ("princess") sits on a chair, turns to face the audience. The Snow Maiden says: “Well, we already have a princess! So - we just need to choose a prince for her. Who wants to show off their strength and dexterity?” Two boys, approximately equal in strength and weight, take each other by the wrist with their right hand, while the left hand is free. Prizes are placed at an equal distance from them. Everyone needs to reach out to their own, and therefore drag the opponent. The winner receives the won award from the hands of the "princess". The loser receives a consolation prize.

The Snow Maiden declares the "prince" and "princess" the hosts of the ball. They invite everyone to the table where a festive dessert is prepared.

It's me, it's me, it's all my friends!

Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden take turns asking the children questions, and they answer with the same phrase. You can think of a lot of questions. The main thing is to have fun.

Who walks to school like a merry gang every day?

- Which of you, say aloud, catches flies at the lesson?
