“Take on…”: you can divide the children into two teams, or you can simply invite the children to participate all together. Turn on the music, the children dance. From time to time, the dances must be interrupted by the leader’s command: “Take hold of ....”

"Participants in the competition must have time to grab onto what was offered to them: green, lilac, black, paper, a chair, their own nose, someone else’s hand, the presenter’s knee, and the like. Players who do not manage to grab the specified items and objects in time are eliminated from the game.": Dance Sport

Divide the children into several teams, preferably three or four. Give each team a task: to come up with and perform a dance to certain music. Fifteen minutes are allotted for preparation. After this time, each team shows its number, and you determine the winners.

"Robot Dance": Tell the children that they are now about to be transported to the disco of the future. In the future, as we know, there live a wide variety of robots who love to dance. In order not to differ from the general population, children need to learn to dance just like them. Turn on the techno music and the dancing begins!

Seated competitions

At the very beginning of the holiday, you can cheer up your invited friends and family by organizing small competitions without even leaving the table.

"Reading thoughts out loud"

This competition is probably familiar to many; it is often played at weddings and anniversaries. Its essence is as follows: the main hero of the occasion or his assistants from friends prepare in advance cuts from songs known to everyone; a headdress is also required. It's best if it's a wide hat. Then one of the guests walks along the others, putting a hat on his head, at this moment the music turns on. Thus, the hat “tells” others about the thoughts of the person sitting. A very funny competition.

"Guess the picture"

This competition is suitable at the very beginning of the celebration, when guests are still able to think logically. In preparation small painting, the plot of which is familiar to everyone (best of all, something from the classics). Next you should prepare a sheet bigger size, and cut a small circle in it. Anyone who wants to conduct this competition goes to the picture and moves the sheet along it, one by one revealing fragments of the picture. Whoever guessed the picture is well done!

Funny game

The essence of the game is quite simple - you need to use a funny syllable “ha” or “hee”. The guests’ task is to pronounce it with a very serious look, without laughing. Each subsequent player adds a new “ha” or “hi” to the previous chain. If someone starts laughing, the game is reset. It won't be easy to stop laughing.

Dance competitions

Dance "train"

Guests stand in the “train”, and the host commands where in this chain people place their hands in front of the person standing - it can be shoulders, waist, hips, heels, anything. At the command of the leader, the hands move to a new place, and the guests continue to dance. Those who can dance in any position without detaching from their “car” will win.

"Dance with your body"

Very funny game, in which participants are divided into pairs. Each of them, at the command of the leader, dances with the part of the body that the leader names. For example, feet, hands, cheeks, backs of heads and others. The pair that practically doesn't get lost will win. You can complicate the competition by adding balls to it. Dancing with balls is much more difficult and funnier.

"Dance like me"

This competition will awaken dance talent even in those who had no idea about it. All guests stand in a circle, and the one chosen by the majority stands in the middle. He will be the main dancer. The task is as follows: to the music, all guests repeat the movements of the one in the circle. The music changes, the dance changes, then another is chosen as the main dancer. The main thing is to choose interesting musical accompaniments that are as different in sound as possible.

Creative competitions

From dancing we move on to creativity.

"The Jolly Tailor"

For this competition you need a thread. Guests are divided into two teams: men and women, each of which selects a captain. It will be he who will need to “stitch” everyone together.

The male captain does the same among the men, “sewing” them according to the elements of clothing. Whichever team completes everything the fastest wins.

Forfeit

Many people have known this game since their youth, for adult company it has not lost its relevance. All guests give some personal item to the host, and he puts what was given into a container. It shouldn't show through. Next, one person is selected who will sit with his back to the presenter and, with his eyes closed, take out the “forfeits,” that is, someone’s thing. After this, he comes up with some task for the owner of the thing. Each task should be new; to make it more fun, it is better not to repeat them. Such a game can keep everyone present for a long time.

Crocodile

A very fun and creative game for adults. Two people are selected, one of whom thinks of a specific animal (it can be not only an animal, but any inanimate object). Then the second person comes out, stands in front of everyone and, without words, depicts the wish. The one who guesses becomes the next “crocodile” and shows a new scene.

Notes

The guests are sitting at the table. The presenter chooses a specific topic, for example, movie characters, cartoon characters or any other. Each of the guests comes up with a word and attaches a note to the forehead of the person sitting next to him so that he does not see what is written. Then, in a circle, the person sitting next to you, using questions to which the answers can only be “yes” and “no,” tries to guess what is written on his forehead.
