Entertainment at the table for a small group. Free your opponent from clothespins and win. Outdoor competitions for children

Games, competitions for the feast

I like to play in groups, I especially like to hold competitions during the holidays.
I think you can choose something suitable for your celebration and your mood =)

Affectionate nicknames

Team players take turns calling affectionate nicknames associated with animals (cat, fish, bunny...). Who will remember the most?

Delicious chocolate

I ask two teams to take part in this competition - those sitting on the right and those sitting on the left. You are given half a chocolate. Each person, having bitten a little, passes the chocolate hands-free to his neighbor, who then passes it to the next one, etc. When the last one has eaten, the whole team shouts in unison: “Congratulations to the hero of the day!” Who will complete this task faster?

Variants of this game:

1. Who cans it faster?

Host: August is the time for canning vegetables and fruits for the winter. But unlike traditional blanks, we offer original way preserving the cordiality, warmth, as well as the August colors of today's meeting. (Guests are given chocolate cones in foil.)
In your hands, dear guests, are the fruits good mood, which must be placed in a jar, passing one by one to the end of the table. The task of the last participant is to roll up the jar with its contents and hand it to the hero of the day. Whose half of the table completes the task faster will receive a prize from the hands of the hero of the day.

2. Rocket flight

Host: Dear guests! We always admire the shining stars in the night sky. Our attention is especially drawn to the constellations Great and Ursa Minor, which is popularly simply called a ladle. We managed to get these star ladles from the sky, and we invite you, friends, to drink a star drink from them, making a toast in honor of our hero of the day.
(Toast from the guests.)
Host: I would like to wish our birthday girl that her life will always remain a full cup, like this ladle shining to us from the beautiful night sky.
(Applause.)
Looking at the hostess of this evening, we can say that she, like a star, is both close and far to us.
To reach this distant star.
Need to take a flight
And for each feast an ambulance rocket
I suggest getting ahead.
(The presenter gives out two rocket models.)
So, attention, flight rules: at the signal from the presenter, the first participant, looking out the window, loudly says: “Happy anniversary!” and hands the rocket to his neighbor. The second one looks out and says: “Congratulations!”, the third: “Happy anniversary!” etc. until the rocket goes around each guest at his half of the table. Let's see whose rocket reaches the birthday girl faster.

Kind words

Dear guests! Today we would really like the hero of the day to feel like a king on the throne. Therefore, we are happy to give him golden crown(worn for the hero of the day) and invite you to listen to your loved ones. After all, for the birthday person, a birthday is an annual gift to rejoice in the love and affection that relatives and friends have for him, and for us it is an occasion to come to the person, his friends and say what is in our hearts. So, in all honesty, find kind words addressed to our hero of the day by deciphering the card you have chosen.

Cards:
1. Ministry of Internal Affairs
2. Air Force
3. Housing and communal services
4. Preschool educational institution
5. TASS
6. CPU
7. PMK
8. UPI
9. SYNCH
10. NTV
11. RTR
12. VAZ
13. ZIL
14. OKA
15. DRSU

For example: OVD - we adore Valera for a long time.
(The phonogram of the song “Golden Heart” performed by S. Rotaru sounds, guests choose cards attached to a soft toy in the shape of a heart, decipher the abbreviation and name what they got.)

This is a very simple and fun game to tease guests. The host names various words, and the guests, in chorus, quickly and without hesitation, name the diminutive form of this word. For example:
Mommy mommy
slipper
Handbag
Bulb lamp
goat goat
rose rose
Vodka water
Of course, “vodka” is correct, but for some reason in most cases already tipsy guests answer “vodka.” At this word, the presenter stops the game and announces to all participants the diagnosis: “increased bottleism.”

Ear, nose and two hands

This competition can be held while sitting at a table. Everyone is asked to grab the tip of their nose with their left hand, and the left earlobe with their right hand. When the leader claps, you need to change the position of your hands, that is, grab your right earlobe with your left hand, and grab your nose with your right hand. At first, the intervals between claps are long, and then the leader increases the pace of the game, and the intervals between claps become smaller and smaller. The winner is the one who lasts the longest and does not get entangled in his hands, noses and ears.

All those present are divided into two teams. Each team needs to come up with as many dishes as possible starting with a letter, for example "N". The team with the most names of dishes starting with the letter N wins.

Questions and answers

Everyone is welcome to participate. Cards of two colors with questions and answers are prepared in advance. The point of the game is that one player takes a card with a question, the second with an answer, and they read out what they got. For convenience, you can do this: the first player takes a card with a question and reads it out. The neighbor next to you takes the card with the answer and reads it out, then he takes the card with the question and reads it to his neighbor, etc. You can play until you get bored.

The owner of the “goldfish” has the right to voice three of his wishes and choose them among the cards proposed by the presenter. But before that, he names any “performer” among the guests.)

Examples of wishes:

The wine was in the cellars,
Since then it has gained strength,
The baby was not left behind.
And to find out if it arrived,
The hero of the day and I will try wine.
This bottle of wine
We pass it back and forth.
On whom the music stops,
He pours a glass,
Says his toast to the guests,
Glory to the hero of the day.
(Game. Toasts.)

Famous couple

Everyone can play. Players take turns naming historical or literary couples known for their love and fidelity: Orpheus and Eurydice, Odysseus and Penelope, Ruslan and Lyudmila, Romeo and Juliet, etc. The one who names the last pair wins.

Tell me about yourself

This comic test is designed for pairs. Sheets of paper and markers are distributed to all willing participants. Each participant writes ten names of animals (insects, birds, reptiles) on a sheet of paper in a column numbered. Then the presenter distributes cards with questions prepared in advance and invites each participant to read aloud what he has done.

My husband (beloved)...
Affectionate as...
Strong like...
Sociable as...
Authoritative as...
Independent like...
Smiling like...
Neat as...
Amorous as...
Beautiful as...

My wife (beloved)...
In transport, like...
With relatives, like...
With work colleagues like...
In the store, like...
At home, like...
In a cafe or restaurant, like...
With the boss, how...
IN friendly company, How...
In the doctor's office, like...

"Yes" and "no" in Bulgarian

The presenter says: “You know that all gestures have international meaning - for example, most greeting gestures. But there are also significant differences in the semantic content of the same gestures in different countries. So, for example, if a Russian shakes his head as a sign of denial, then for a Bulgarian this gesture has the opposite meaning - he expresses agreement. Conversely, the Bulgarian tilts his head down as a sign of denial. And now I will ask you questions in Russian, and you answer them in Bulgarian, making a gesture with your head, while speaking out loud in Russian."
The questions can be absolutely anything, since the holiday is about love and romantic relationships, then questions can be prepared in advance on relevant topics.

The host asks all guests sitting at the table to name two parts of the body: what they like and what they don’t like about the neighbor on the right. For example: “I like my neighbor’s ear on the right and don’t like his shoulder.” After everyone calls it, the host asks everyone to kiss what they like and bite what they don't like. A minute of wild laughter is guaranteed for you.

2-3 people play. The presenter reads the text: I’ll tell you a story in one and a half dozen phrases. As soon as I say the number 3, take the prize immediately:

“Once we caught a pike, gutted it, and inside we saw small fish, not just one, but seven.”

“When you want to memorize poems, don’t cram them until late at night. Take them and repeat them once at night - twice, or better yet, 10.”

“A seasoned guy dreams of becoming an Olympic champion. Look, don’t be tricky at the start, but wait for the command: one, two, march!

"Once I had to wait 3 hours for a train at the station..."

If they don’t have time to take the prize, the presenter takes it: “Well, friends, you didn’t take the prize when you had the opportunity to take it.”

In general, the competition is very simple. Participants sit around the table. Take a glass. The first participant fills it with as much as he likes (usually, of course, vodka to the brim) and carefully (so as not to spill) passes it to his neighbor, who passes it to his neighbor and adds liquid to the glass... and so on, and so on... The loser is the one who will no longer be able to pour anything into this glass. So he calms his nerves with the contents of the glass. It is very interesting to play when there are many different drinks on the table. And also if the glass is paper or plastic. Good luck!

PORTRAIT.

Number of participants - 5-20.
Venue: feast, room.
You will need: Paper and pencil for each participant, eraser.
Rules. Each player draws a portrait of someone present. After this, all the portraits are passed around in a circle and the players write on the back of each portrait the name of the person who, in their opinion, is drawn on it. After the picture goes around the circle and returns to the author, the number of correct answers is counted. The "artist" who draws the most recognizable portrait is declared the winner. After this, the portraits are given to those participants who are depicted in them.
Useful advice. It's best to have players draw caricatures of each other. So that each participant receives his own portrait at the end of the game, you can designate who will draw whom by drawing lots (to do this, players write their names on pieces of paper and put them in a hat, and then the participants take turns taking the names of their models out of the hat).

IN A PLATE.

The game is played while eating. The driver names any letter. The goal of the other participants is to name an object with this letter contained in the present moment on their plate. Whoever names the object first becomes the new driver. The driver who says the letter for which none of the players could come up with a word receives a prize.
It is necessary to prohibit the driver from always calling the winning letters
(е, и, ъ, ь, ы).

CANDY.

Participants sit at a table. Choose a driver from among them. Players pass candy to each other under the table. The driver's task is to catch someone from the game passing the candy. The one who is caught becomes the new driver.

BEST TOAST

The facilitator informs the participants that, without a doubt, a real man must be able to drink properly. However, the goal of the competition is not to drink more than others, but to do it most gracefully.
After this, each participant receives a glass of strong drink. The competitors take turns making toasts and drinking the contents of the glass. The one who completes the task best receives a bonus point.

BEST COMPLIMENT

Since a real man must be gallant and be able to find an approach to a woman’s heart, in this competition participants compete in complimenting the fair sex.
The one whose compliment the women like more than others gets a bonus point.

Competition "Guess who drinks vodka"
This is a drawing competition and you can only do it once, but it's worth it. The conditions are simple: any number of participants are called. Then the host of the competition brings out the appropriate number of glasses (glasses, etc., but preferably transparent!), in which about 150 grams of liquid with straws are poured. The presenter announces: “Now I will give each participant a glass. All but one glass contain clean water. And in one glass there is pure VODKA!" The task of each participant is to drink the contents of his glass through a straw, trying not to let anyone guess what he is drinking. The task of the observers (everyone else) is to guess who exactly has the vodka poured. Well, then, accordingly, the participants sip the liquid, observers try to guess: who is drinking vodka, expressing their guesses, making bets, etc. When all the contestants have drunk everything, the host announces that... this is actually a joke and vodka is poured in all the glasses!!!

Associations

Props: not needed

Everyone sits in a circle and someone speaks any word into the ear of his neighbor, he must, as quickly as possible, say into the ear of the next person his first association with this word, the second - to the third, and so on. until the word returns to the first. This competition is considered successful if from the first word, for example glass, the last word turns out to be “gangbang” :)

Props: The organizers of the game tie absolutely any (and as many) items as they want on strings and hide them in a bag.

They call a volunteer and blindfold him. When the eyes are blindfolded, the leader takes one of the prepared items dangling from a rope from the bag and brings it to the volunteer’s nose. You need to determine without the help of your hands, only through the sense of smell: what kind of thing it is. Guess what, you will get this very thing as a gift...

The very first one is given something simpler, like an apple. The rest, inspired by the example, will then stand in line. It can be very funny when an unfortunate sniffer pokes his nose, for example, into a suspended can of beer, which is dangling back and forth...

Finally, it comes to the point where volunteers are given scented condoms to smell. The volunteer sucks in air with all his might, and the people just crawl under the furniture out of laughter. You can also let them smell the bills. And if he guesses right, then let him tell you what denomination the money was. Practice shows that there is always someone who is able to guess the dignity by smell...

FEED ME
The guests are divided into pairs. Each pair consists of a man and a woman. The task of each pair is to work together, without using their hands, to unwrap and eat the candy that the host will give. The first couple to do this wins.

QUESTION FOR YOUR NEIGHBOR
Everyone sits in a circle, the leader is in the center. He approaches any player and asks a question, for example: “What is your name?”, “Where do you live?” etc. But it is not the one who is asked who must answer, but his neighbor on the left. If the one whom the presenter asked answers, he must give the forfeit. After the game, forfeits are played out.

WIND THE CORD
A knot is tied in the middle of the cord, and strings are attached to the ends. a simple pencil. You need to wind your part of the cord around a pencil. Whoever reaches the knot faster is the winner. Instead of a cord, you can take a thick thread.

ELEPHANT
The hostess offers each team a sheet of paper, on which they collectively draw an elephant, with their eyes closed: one draws the body, the other closes his eyes and draws the head, the third legs, etc. Whoever draws something similar faster and faster gets another point.

CHIEF ACCOUNTANT
On a large sheet of whatman paper, various banknotes are depicted scatteredly. They need to be quickly counted, and counting should be done like this: one dollar, one ruble, one mark, two marks, two rubles, three marks, two dollars, etc. The one who counts correctly, without getting lost, and reaching the farthest bill, is the winner.

THREAD THE NEEDLE

Required: NEEDLES + THREAD

Form several pairs (boy and girl). Let the guys stand on one side and the girls on the other.

Give each guy a piece of thread, each girl a needle of the same size.

At the signal, the guys run to the place where their girls are standing, holding needles.

Without the girl's help, each guy must thread the eye of the needle.

As soon as he succeeds, he takes a needle and thread and runs back to the place from where he came. (you don’t have to run while sitting at the table)

BROKEN HEARTS

Required: HEARTS - PUZLE

Cut it into pieces so that they are not easy to put together.

The first one to put his “broken heart” together wins.

This comic test is designed for married couples. The first to write on a piece of paper - in a column, under numbers - ten names of animals (insects, birds, reptiles), are married men who are present - of course, in secret from their wives. Then the wives do the same.

The person conducting the test asks the married couple to look at the side of the sheet where the representatives of the fauna chosen by the husband appear in a column.
And so, husband:

THE MOST DEXTERABLE

Each participant in the competition is given an unfolded sheet of newspaper. The task of each participant is to, while holding right hand behind your back, only with the help of your left hand, taking the newspaper by the corner, gather it into a fist. The fastest and most agile wins.

DRAWERS

The leader calls two or three pairs of players. The players of each pair sit at the table next to each other. One is blindfolded, a sheet of paper is placed in front of him and a pen or pencil is given in his hand. Everyone else present gives each pair a task, for example: draw a New Year's picture. The player in each pair, who is not blindfolded, carefully watches what his neighbor is drawing and tells him where to point the pen and in which direction. He listens and draws what he is told. It turns out very funny. The couple that completes the drawing faster and better wins.

For your first competition you will need a lot of colored hair ties. We select several pairs. The gentlemen sit on chairs, the ladies stand behind them. The task of the latter is to tie as many ponytails as possible on the heads of their partners in one minute. The shorter the hair of the male half of humanity, the more fun the competition will be.

The next two games may perhaps become my favorites. They usually cause the most laughter and positive emotions at the guests' place. So, "Fat-cheeked lip slap." To play, you will need two bags of caramels without wrappers. Two male “victims” are selected, well acquainted and not inclined to be offended over trifles. They sit on chairs facing each other and begin to take turns putting caramels into their mouths, while saying: “Fat-cheeked lip slap!” The more candies in the mouth, the more similar the players become to the very person they call each other, and the more fun all the fans have. The winner is the one who can stuff the most candy into his mouth and at the same time pronounce the required phrase more or less clearly.

The game “While the Candle Burns” is also played by two people. Only now their props are not caramels, but apples, matches and candles. Players sit at the table opposite each other. Near each there is a candle in a candlestick, an apple and a box of matches. Objective: eat an apple faster than your opponent. But this can only be done when your own candle is burning, which your opponent is constantly trying to blow out. Therefore, you need not only to chew, but also to protect the flame of the candle, light it if necessary (and such a need arises constantly) and do not forget to extinguish the opponent’s flame. Fans are allowed to cheer on the players and, of course, laugh. The game can be modified - the role of candlesticks can be played by the brave wives of the players, holding candles in their hands. If you decide to use this option, place a piece of paper on the bottom of the candle. Melted wax dripping onto your hands is not a pleasant sensation.

The next competition is called "Siamese Twins". And here's why. Two or three pairs of players are selected. In each pair, the right hand of one player is tied to the left hand of the other player. The resulting “Siamese twins” now have only three “working” hands between them. On the command “start”, each pair must fold an airplane from a sheet of paper, ahead of the other “twins” in this process. It is not forbidden to interfere with rival couples. The “twins” win, whose airplane is the first to fly over festive table.

If among your friends there are a couple of connoisseurs and passionate beer lovers, organize a tasting competition between them. To do this, you need to have three to five types of beer available. Try to select beer from popular brands with contrasting tastes to make the task easier for tasters. So, pour a little of the drink into glasses, not forgetting to mark them in some way for yourself. You can stick pieces of colored paper on the glasses or put marks with colored markers. Each tasting participant receives a tray with a set of glasses, tastes the beer and determines its brand and variety. If such a task turns out to be too difficult for the players, name the types of beer in the glasses and invite the tasters to determine which is which. The winner who most accurately identifies the contents of their glasses receives a prize. Which? Of course, a bottle of beer!

Now let's remember the old forgotten games. For example, a competition “which couple will eat the candy faster.” But you need to unwrap the candy without using your hands. The couple grabs the candy wrapper on both sides with their teeth and carefully unrolls it. The main thing is not to laugh, otherwise the candy may simply fall. By the way, laughing is also prohibited in the “nose” competition. Couples connect noses and try to hold out as long as possible without laughing or being separated. And the presenter gives them different tasks: sit down, stand up, bend over, grunt, jump. And if you go back to the first game with candies, you can come up with many more variations: eat a chocolate bar, banana, apple or any other fruit together and without using your hands.

New Year's predictions

Don't offer sex?

Don't worry, nothing indecent is expected. Let's call the game "Chained by One Chain." Write down the body parts on small pieces of paper: palm, knee, elbow, cheek, neck, ear, forehead, chest, stomach, finger, etc. Words may be repeated. All players line up and receive two pieces of paper. The inscriptions indicate those body parts that each player must use to connect with the previous and subsequent players in the chain. Let's say the first player has a stomach, the second has an ear. We connect the two parts of the body together and continue the chain. The question may arise: what is the point of this game? Nothing, in general. But fun and laughter at the moment of building the chain are guaranteed. And don’t forget to take a photo of the resulting composition as a souvenir.

Visiting a fairy tale

An impromptu production of a children's fairy tale can become traditional fun at any of your holidays. At the height of the evening, even the most shy ones, those who previously had to be pulled out from the table and “implanted” into the role almost by force, will wonder when the “fairy tale” will happen. The meaning of this action is extremely simple. You need to choose the right one in advance, not too a long tale with a dynamic plot. All characters, including inanimate objects, are written out on separate pieces of paper and then distributed to the “actors”. The presenter reads a fairy tale, and the actors play their roles: someone depicts a fungus under which a mouse, a frog and a butterfly are hiding, and someone depicts rain pouring rain from a pipette onto all participants. It is important that the presenter be a person with a good sense of humor, read the text with additional comments and at the same time direct the “actors”. The simplest fairy tales, like “Kolobok,” as well as specially invented stories and even classics, are suitable for production. Moreover, children, both big and small, will probably refuse to play the role of passive spectators and will also take part in the performance. It would be great if all the action was captured on camera. Then you are guaranteed minutes of laughter not only during the game, but also during subsequent viewings.

Funny "guessers"

The next series of games is no less interesting than a dramatization of a fairy tale. True, you will have to invent something new every time. So, remember in advance and write on pieces of paper some good famous couples characters. These can be literary, cartoon and film characters, TV show hosts, celebrity couples, monuments and whatever you want. For example: Romeo and Juliet, worker and collective farmer, Othello and Desdemona, Winnie the Pooh and Piglet, Father Frost and Snow Maiden, Ivan Tsarevich and the frog, etc. At the height of the evening, hand out a note to each married (or non-married) couple. After thinking and preparing, the couple portrays their characters, and the rest of the guests guess who they are. Makeup and dressing up are encouraged.

You can also invite couples to demonstrate the film in a similar way. He must certainly be well known to the majority of those present. Use old Soviet films, like "White Sun of the Desert", "The Diamond Arm" or "Dogs in the Manger" and foreign ones (for example, "Pulp Fiction", "Die Hard", etc.). Some films are not at all easy to show or guess. Speaking of films. Offer your guests this riddle. You read a list of actors, and everyone has to guess what movie they are talking about.

The entertainment described is a type of good famous game into a "cow" (or "crocodile"). And if you still don’t have it in your arsenal of home games, the situation needs to be corrected immediately! The rules of the game are simple. The whole company is divided into two teams (usually the right and left half of the table). One of the teams, after consulting, thinks of a word or phrase (no more than two words) and tells it in the ear of one of the players of the opposing team. The player’s task, without using words or auxiliary objects, is to show his team the intended word with just gestures. And the team, in turn, must guess this word. The player can use several permitted gestures: show on his fingers the number of words in a phrase; crossing your arms is absolutely wrong; rub your palms together - very close, it seems. When the word is guessed, the teams switch places. Words and phrases can be: femme fatale, mess, jelly, new year card. And even: state of aggregation, kerosene, indulgence, periodic table. You can agree in advance to wish for a movie or a famous song or a proverb.

If you wish, you can play “Associations”. It's done like this. A leader is selected and sent temporarily to another room or corridor. The remaining company makes a wish for any of those present (including the presenter). The presenter comes back and starts asking questions to all the players in turn. The meaning of the questions is: with whom (what) do the players associate the hidden person. For example, the presenter says: “Animal.” The player answers: "Cat." The host says: “Food.” The player answers: "Chocolate." Questions can be: color, city, movie, book, hobby, vacation, flower, car, work, etc. After analyzing the answers received, the presenter guesses the person after three attempts. If he succeeds, the guessed one becomes the leader. If not, the presenter goes out the door again.

Say “yes” and “no”!

Probably, many have already guessed that we will talk about Danetkas or, as this game is otherwise called, situations. This funny game is not only fun entertainment. It activates creative thinking, which is very useful not only for children, but also for adult uncles and aunts. You can also play in situations with children during long journey, and in an adult company at the festive table. So, the presenter tells some situation. For example, this: “One man lived on the 10th floor. Every time he returned home, he took the elevator to the 8th floor, and then walked. Why?” Now players are trying to figure out the missing information and guess the situation. To do this, they ask questions to the presenter, to which he can only answer: “Yes”, “No”, “Doesn’t matter” or “Incorrect question” (if the question cannot be answered either yes or no). The game continues until one of the players clears up the situation. And the answer is extremely simple. This man is very short (options: dwarf, child) and does not reach the tenth floor button.

You can come up with situations yourself (by the way, in everyday life there are a great variety of all kinds of incidents), and can be found on the Internet. Having a few new riddles in stock, you can always entertain any bored company. To begin with, here are a few situations for you.

The traveler was captured by the Amazons. They decided to kill him, but promised to fulfill his last wish. How did the traveler escape? Answer: The traveler asked to be killed by the most beautiful Amazon. Deciding which of them was more beautiful, the Amazons fought and killed each other.

From vanity she lost food. Answer: Crow from Krylov's fable "The Crow and the Fox".

Two friends went to the mountains. One of them died there. It all looked like an accident, but someone was found who proved it was murder. Answer: This person is a ticket seller from whom the killer bought only one return ticket in advance.

And this is a classic Danetka, described by M. Weller in the book “The Adventures of Major Zvyagin”. A cowboy runs into the bar and signs for a drink. The bartender pulls out his Colt and knocks the cowboy's hat off with a shot. The cowboy thanks him and leaves. Answer: The cowboy was tormented by hiccups, and the bartender knew that fright was the best remedy for it.

And finally. A man sits at home. The phone is ringing. He picks up the phone, says, “Yes,” and hangs up. Then the phone rings again. He says, “No,” and hangs up. This is repeated several times. The phone rings again. He listens to what they tell him and exclaims: “Finally!” Answer: Playing Danetki on the phone.

I demand that the banquet continue!

Sitting at the festive table, you can draw a little “concepts”. Everyone present is given a sheet of paper, a pencil and a card with a concept (adultery, senility, hellish tension, etc.) In five minutes, each player tries to draw his concept without using a signature. Then the drawings are collected, and the whole team tries to guess what is drawn there.

It makes sense to diversify the usual dances a little. To do this, conduct a “dance marathon”. Pre-record song fragments onto a cassette in different styles(something slow, Latin American, hip-hop, etc.) Several couples participate in the marathon. Their task is to react in time to changes in music and change the dance accordingly. The rest of the guests are the audience and the jury. They evaluate each pair and choose a winner. If you haven't recorded the music in advance, there is a way out. All you have to do is switch radio stations and musical diversity you're guaranteed.

You can also remember the good old newspaper dancing competition. To do this, each couple is given a newspaper on which they dance. When the music stops, the newspapers are folded in half and the dancing continues. This is repeated until the “dance floor” becomes so small that you can dance on it only on your toes, lifting your partner in your arms. The couple that lasts the longest wins the prize.

Or you can dance and change clothes at the same time. Prepare a box (for example, from a coffee maker) and put various accessories in it in advance, such as hats, bandanas, ties, children's crowns, masks. If you have some lying around on the mezzanine old clothes, for example, wide pants and skirts, they can also be added to the general pile. Now we pass the box around in a circle to the music. When the music stops, the one who has the box in his hands takes out the first thing he comes across at random and puts it on himself. The dancing continues...

New Year's predictions

It will be very fun and effective to read the thoughts of all your guests. This action also requires preliminary preparation. Choose a phrase for each of your friends famous song which will characterize his thoughts. It is important to do this with a certain amount of humor, so that it is fun and not offensive. Record these song fragments on a tape recorder with pauses of a few seconds. Tell your guests that you can read minds and will now demonstrate it. Approaching each one in turn, you begin to make mysterious movements above his head with your hand. Meanwhile, with your other hand, turn on the music from the remote control remote control. And everyone hears the “thoughts” of the “victim”. When the laughter and jokes about this have died down, proceed in the same way to read the thoughts of the next guest. And be sure to have a few extra pieces in stock. After all, guests are unpredictable things. There may well be more of them than originally planned...

And if you have a little free time, a desire to tinker and surprise guests, prepare real predictions. After all New Year and Christmas are unusual and mysterious holidays. So, on small pieces of colored paper, write or print one universal phrase that can serve as an answer to any question posed. Predictions based on Runes are well suited for this purpose. Here are examples: “You are moving towards improvement life situation. This applies to both deeds and ideas,” “It seems that there is an obstacle in your way, but the delay can be favorable.” Now, carefully, so as not to damage the shell, crack the required number of walnuts. Take out the contents, and put your prediction in each nut First, fold the leaf like an accordion, then bend it in half and tie it with rain. Add glitter and confetti to the shell. Carefully apply PVA glue to the edge of the shell and connect it with the other half. Place the “fortune-telling” nuts in a wicker basket or vase with New Year’s tinsel. think about the most important question in the new year. Then everyone takes out a nut with the answer. Such “predictions” are a very impressive thing, because the nuts look completely intact...

If you try at least once to say “no” to boredom and take the first step towards the holiday, the holiday will certainly respond. Both adults and children will happily come to your home, wanting to once again plunge into the atmosphere of warm, rosy, reckless fun. Are you ready? Then go ahead, towards the holiday...

Secret connections
To play, you will need numbered cards corresponding to the number of participants.
Cards with numbers are laid out on the table, numbers down. The participants in the game draw lots. Participant No. 1 immediately reveals himself. He plays the role of a "detective".
The remaining participants (let's say there are only 20 of them) are given a task: using secret methods of communication, divide into four groups. The first group should include participants who drew numbers from 2 to 5; to the second group - from 6 to 10; in the third - from 11 to 15; in the fourth - from 16 to 20. All participants must remain in their places without revealing their belonging to any of the groups. The members of each group secretly agree to carry out some common task.
The task of the “detective” is: firstly, to discover groups, naming those who are members of them, and secondly, having exposed “secret connections”, to name those joint actions that each group has agreed on. Thirdly, as the task is completed, the “detective” can expose the participants by guessing their numbers based on some signs. If the number called by the “detective” is guessed correctly, that participant is eliminated from the game. If the number is called incorrectly, the “detective” receives a penalty point, and the participant continues to work without calling his real number. Depending on the number of penalty points, you can give appropriate tasks to the “detective” according to a “penalty scale” specially developed for this purpose.
The winner is the detective who scores fewer penalty points.

Target
Guests are given blank sheets of paper and a pencil. The presenter invites them to draw a large circle on the sheet, inside which - yet 4 circles (in the form of a target of 5 circles). Place a point in the middle and draw 2 perpendicular lines through it. The result was 4 sectors. Guests are invited to write: in 1 circle (from the center) - letters R, P, S, L. in the 2nd circle - numbers from 1 to 4 in any order, in the 3rd circle - one name of an animal, bird, insect, in the 4th circle - 4 adjectives (preferably funny - fat, drunk, creeping, etc.) in the 5th circle - 4 any proverbs. The presenter collects the completed targets and begins to read them out indicating its author: the letters in the center of the circle mean P-work, P-bed, S-family, L-love, numbers - where each of the guests has work, family, bed and love, animal + definition - who he is in work, bed, family and love (for example, it may turn out that at work he is a “greedy jackal”, and in bed “a fat dog”), a proverb is a motto this person in work, family, bed, love (for example, it may turn out that in bed his motto is “work loves fools”, and in the family “no matter how much you feed the wolf, everyone looks into the forest”). It turns out very funny!!

WE'LL MAKE LIDS
Participants in the game are invited to look from a distance at a set of cans of various sizes and shapes. You cannot pick them up. Each player has a piece of cardboard from which they must cut out the lids so that they exactly match the holes of the cans. The winner is the one with the most lids that exactly match the openings of the cans.

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

HARVEST
The task of the players of each team is to move the oranges to a certain place as quickly as possible without using their hands.

TEAR THE NEWSPAPER
With one hand, right or left, it doesn’t matter - tear the newspaper into small pieces, while the hand is extended forward, free hand can't help. Who will do the smallest job?

FAIRY TALE
When you have 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, “Ryaba Hen”, “Kolobok”, “Turnip”, “Teremok”, etc. are ideal). Choose a leader (he will be the reader). From the book, write down all the characters of the fairy tale on separate pieces of paper, including, if the number of people allows, trees, stumps, a river, buckets, etc. All guests pull out pieces of paper with roles. The presenter begins to read the fairy tale, and all the characters “come to life”….

LAUGHING
Any number of participants can play. All participants in the game, if it is a free area, form a large circle. In the center is the driver with a handkerchief in his hands. He throws the handkerchief up, while it flies to the ground, everyone laughs loudly, the handkerchief is on the ground - everyone calms down. As soon as the handkerchief touches the ground, this is where the laughter begins, and from the funniest we take a forfeit - this is a song, a poem, etc.

ROPE
It is necessary that the majority of those gathered have not played it before. In an empty room, a long rope is taken and a labyrinth is stretched so that a person, while passing, crouches somewhere and steps somewhere. Having invited the next player from the next room, they explain to him that he must go through this labyrinth blindfolded, having first remembered the location of the rope. The audience will give him hints. When the player is blindfolded, the rope is removed. The player sets off, stepping and crawling under a non-existent rope. Spectators are asked in advance not to give away the secret of the game.

ROLL
This game will help all your guests get to know each other. Guests sitting at the table pass a roll of toilet paper around. 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.

WITH SIGNS
At the entrance, each guest receives his new name - a piece of paper with the inscription is attached to his back (giraffe, hippopotamus, mountain eagle, bulldozer, bread slicer, rolling pin, cucumber, etc.). Each guest can read what the other guests are called, but, naturally, cannot read what he himself is called. The task of each guest is to find out his new name from the others throughout the evening. Guests can only answer “Yes” or “No” to questions. The first one to find out what is written on his piece of paper wins.

JOKE GAME
All guests stand in a circle and put their hands on each other's shoulders. The host says “duck” or “goose” in everyone’s ear (scattered, say “duck” to more players). Then he explains the rules of the game: “If I now say: “Goose,” then all the players whom I called so will tuck one leg. And if “Duck,” then the players whom I called “Duck” will tuck both legs.” You are guaranteed a heap.

"MYSTERIOUS CHEST"
Each of the two players has their own chest or suitcase in which they put various items clothes. The players are blindfolded, and at the leader’s command they begin to put on things from the chest. The players' task is to dress up as quickly as possible.

COLORS
The players stand in a circle. The presenter commands: “Touch yellow, one, two, three!” Players try to grab the thing (object, part of the body) of the other participants in the circle as quickly as possible. Those who do not have time are eliminated from the game. The presenter repeats the command again, but with a new color. The last one standing wins.

RIDE THE BALL
All competition participants line up in teams of 3 people. Each “three” of players receives a tight volleyball. At the signal from the leader, one of the three players, supported by the elbows of two other players, steps on the ball and rolls it. The group that reaches the finish line first wins.

DRAW THE SUN
This relay game involves teams, each of which lines up in a single column. At the start, in front of each team there are gymnastic sticks according to the number of players. A hoop is placed in front of each team, at a distance of 5-7 meters. The task of the relay participants is to take turns, at a signal, running out with sticks, placing them in rays around their hoop - “draw a sun.” The team that completes the task faster wins.

FAST WALKERS
Participants are asked to stand on the base of a dumbbell with one foot and push off the floor with the other to overcome a given distance.

SCULPTORS
Participants in the game are given plasticine or clay. The presenter shows or names a letter, and the players must, as quickly as possible, create an object whose name begins with this letter.

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

POSTMAN
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 name is cut in advance into pieces in the form of postcards, which are folded into shoulder bags. The first team numbers put their bags on their shoulders, at the leader’s signal, 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 put 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.

"JOURNEY IN THE DARKNESS"
This game will require bowling pins and blindfolds according to the number of participants. Team game. The pins are placed in a “snake” pattern in front of each team. Teams holding hands and blindfolded try to go the distance without hitting the pins. The team whose team has the fewest pins knocked down will win the “trip.” The number of pins not knocked down equals the number of points.

COSMONAUTS
Along the edges of the site, 6-8 triangles are drawn - “rocket launch sites”. Inside each of them they draw circles - “rockets”, but always several circles less than the ones playing. All participants stand in a circle in the center of the site. At the command of the leader, they walk in a circle, holding hands, saying the words: “Fast rockets for walking around the planets are waiting for us. We’ll fly to whichever one we want! But there’s one secret in the game: there’s no room for latecomers!” After that, everyone runs to the “rocket launch site” and takes their places in the “rocket”. Those who do not have time to take a place are eliminated from the game.

IN A FIELD GROWN... A SHIRT
Cards with pictures (a roll of fabric, a ball, a spinning wheel, a flax bush, a spindle, a shirt) are hidden in an envelope. Participants in the game need to quickly arrange the cards so that the path that the shirt “takes” from the flax bush to the finished model is created.

WE ARE ALL FRIENDLY GUYS...
Participants in the game are invited to jump with a rolling pin for as long as possible, breaking into pairs, threes, and fours of players.

LITERARY SCIENTISTS
Participants in the competition are read episodes or quotes, or individual phrases from some literary work. Participants must choose from a variety of books the one they think is being discussed. The first one to name the correct answer receives the title of winner.

About how to turn a birthday into a fun, unusual event with the help of games for the whole company. All games are connected in one way or another with wishes to the birthday person and can replace the traditional exchange of toasts. Preparation for the games is minimal, and as a result, everyone will remember this day!

Good luck to you friends!

Each participant is given several pieces of paper. On each of them you need to write (without showing anyone) the name of any character (celebrity, book character, movie character, cartoon character, etc.)
All the leaves must be folded several times so that what is written is not visible.

The point of the game is that each participant will draw out a piece of paper with a character, which he will become for one round of the game. The rest will guess))

Previously, we pulled out leaves for everyone and glued them on their foreheads. But this is not very convenient, and not everyone likes it, so the process was simplified a little.

Here's how we play: The first volunteer closes his eyes, pulls out a piece of paper with the character’s name and, without opening his eyes, passes it to his neighbor. The neighbor reads what was written and passes the piece of paper on so that all participants read what was written.

The leaf is laid down, the volunteer opens his eyes.

I repeat that the essence of the game: each player must guess the name of his character (which he naturally does not see).

How to guess? IN classic version In the game, the one whose name we must guess asks questions.

In practice it quickly became boring and we began to play differently.

The person guessing asks: “Who am I?”

And the participants take turns or in random order, talk about the Character (You are...)
The softest thing is to speak at length, beautifully and incomprehensibly, actively using the pattern of uncertainty.

What does Guessable do?

Firstly, he ENJOYS it! Why? Because the stories about the character are so interesting that even when you guess it, you don’t say it right away, you want to listen to everyone))

Secondly, he can ask clarifying questions.

For the New Year 2015, I received 1000% pleasure from this game (we played from the evening until 3-4 in the morning)

Having found out during the discussion that man is also an animal, a tradition was established to begin each round with the phrase: “You are an animal!”
As a rule, this was followed by a clarification: “You are an archetypal animal”))

So figure out who they wished for: Babu Yaga or Cthulhu?))

It was funny to watch the surprise on Seryoga’s face, who was told: “You’re not even an animal!” (The character was Kapitoshka)

And the pleasure I got when I got “Schrodinger’s Cat” is beyond words to describe. Mutually exclusive statements about my character rained down from all sides, and guessing the cat was a real thrill.

In short, love mind games If you like to use your imagination, this game is for you!

It is interesting to spend time in a company where everyone knows each other well. One of the participants becomes the leader, he leaves the room, the rest make a guess for someone present. The returning leader can ask the whole group questions like this: “If this person were a tree (bird, weather, landscape, fruit, etc.), what kind?”

Leading: Now we will give gifts to each other. Starting with the leader, everyone in turn uses pantomime to depict some object and passes it to their neighbor on the right (ice cream, hedgehog, weight, flower, etc.) They show this to the person sitting next to them using facial expressions and gestures. As soon as the person sitting has guessed correctly, he can wish for his gift to the next player sitting behind him. You can explain only with the help of facial expressions and gestures. The one to whom it was given can support the action. For example, pantomime to show how he unwraps a gift, twirls it, and so on. And of course, say “Thank you!”

The presenter calmly and clearly pronounces one syllable out loud: “Ha.” Further in the circle, the next guest loudly and clearly pronounces the next two syllables: “Ha-ha.” The third participant supports the previous two and continues: “Ha ha ha.” And so on!

The host divides the guests at the table into approximately 5 groups. (even 1-2 people in a group).
Leading:
Now we will listen to the Georgian choir! To do this, each group will rhythmically sing (pronounce) their words. The first group begins the choir with their phrase, repeating it continuously without stopping. As soon as the 1st phrase has been heard once or twice, the 2nd part joins the choir (at the command of the leader). Then the 3rd and 4th parties join one after another. The 5th part is spoken with the longest pauses between phrases.

The presenter brings a bag into the hall, and in it are tokens with different letters. Guests sitting at the table take turns taking a “letter” out of the bag and, without hesitation, name any word starting with this letter. The effect of surprise and the high rate of responses give a comical result. Moreover, at the end of the competition the presenter says: “Now we know who is thinking about what now!”

Each number is unique

Each of the guests takes turns pulling out their own forfeit from the hat, which contains any number from 1 to 15, for example. As soon as all the guests have learned their numbers, each participant in turn names this “his” number and begins to list everything that exists and does not exist in the world associated with this number, for example, if a guest pulled out the number 1, he can list: the saying “Alone in the field not a warrior"; catchphrase “One to One”; name any player who plays number 1; name the first element in the periodic table - hydrogen; sing a song with the number 1 “Once a year the gardens bloom” and so on, if, for example, a guest comes across the number 7, he can also remember some athlete with number 7; remember that there are 7 wonders of the world in the world; catchphrase “On 7th heaven”; the saying “Seven do not wait for one” and so on. The main thing is to use your wits and rummage through your memory, and then you can find your own unique “stories” for all the numbers: movies, songs, sayings, numbers of players and elements, catch phrases, and so on. Whichever guest can name the most facts about their number will win.

A lot of words

Each of the guests takes turns pulling out their own forfeit from the hat, in which any letter of the alphabet is indicated. And at the “start” command, the presenter sets time for the participant - a minute, and during this minute the participant must name as many words as possible for the letter that he pulled out. At the end of the game, the title of winner and the prize will be taken by the participant who can name the most words starting with “their” letter.

Cinema on the table

You need to print out notes in advance with famous catchphrases from a movie and preferably about food, for example, “How disgusting this jellied fish of yours is,” “He who doesn’t work, eats,” “Sit down to eat, please,” and so on. The presenter announces the beginning of the competition and the guests look with their eyes for the notes on the table, read and guess the films from which the phrases are taken - “The Irony of Fate”, “The Adventures of Shurik” and so on. Whichever guest finds the most notes and guesses the most movies will win a prize.

Traveling by country

The presenter prepares “compromising evidence” on the countries for this competition - any two pictures characterizing a specific country. The presenter takes turns showing two pictures, and the guests at the table guess the country itself. Whoever has the most guessed countries is the winner. Examples of pictures:
1. Bear and balalaika (Russia);
2. Carnival and coffee (Brazil);
3. Sombreros and maracas (Mexico);
4. Pizza and gladiator fights (Italy);
