If there are more children than multi-colored boxes, cards of the same color can be cut in different ways: lengthwise, across, at an angle, in a wavy line. Cards with assignments are put in one box, colored side up. The second box, hidden in another place, contains the cards with prizes. Each player, drawing out a card, must complete the task: tell a rhyme, sing a song, compose a small thematic story, and make a riddle for children. Then the child must find the other half of his card and receive a prize. For prizes, it is best to buy colored pencils, felt-tip pens, albums, coloring books, books, small toys. At the end of each toddler's performance, the others thank him for his efforts, clapping their hands and cheering him on as he searches for his prize.

Then all players sit in a circle, facing the center of the circle. The presenter stands in the center of the circle and says the following phrase "I went to the bazaar and bought (a) ..." Further, depending on the continuation of the phrase, the participants must act in different ways, for example:

- "... and bought bananas", then all those who belong to the group of bananas change places (the leader also participates in this exchange). After the exchange, one "extra" fruit remains, which becomes the leading one and the game starts again.

- "... and bought peaches and bananas (or any other combination of groups)", then all participants belonging to the named groups change places (together with the leader). Again, the extra “fruit” becomes the leading one.

- “… and bought some fruit,” in which case all participants change places. The only one who is left without a place becomes the leader.

alternate calm activities with fun relay races;
find out more about the friends of your son or daughter, ask about their preferences;
a safe bet - a themed party with original costumes;
Refuse contests in which the participants will feel uncomfortable (humiliated). Do not allow the competition results to create a division into stupid and smart, quiet and activists, inept and jack of all trades. Entertainment should evoke joy, laughter, not ridicule;
prepare prizes. The main thing: attention, not the price of the gift. The reward must be age appropriate;
think over two or three contests in which there are no winners: all children receive gifts for participation. Required condition for babies aged 3-4 years;

Each of the participants in the competition puts any soy thing in the bag. One of the children is blindfolded. The presenter takes a thing out of the bag and the participant, blindfolded, comes up with a task that the owner of the taken out thing must complete.

Difficult dances

For such dances, we need strings or an elastic band. We pull one rope to a height of 1 meter, and the second - 50 centimeters from the floor. Make a small distance between them. Assignment: to the incendiary music, you need to step over the lower rope, and under the upper one - bend over and pass without touching. You can walk several times in a circle.

Manage to pick up

The ball is given to the player's hands, and 8-10 tennis balls are folded behind him. The player's task is to throw the ball up while it is in the air, pick up as many tennis balls as possible, and then catch the big ball. The game develops agility, attention, coordination of movements.

Birthday games for 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 years old

The most common type of entertainment at children's parties is contests.

They allow you to relieve tension and stiffness, make children more relaxed. Most often, after contests, the guys become more sociable and friendly.

It is not always possible to organize an outdoor celebration for children. Therefore, parents often wonder how safe it is to hold contests indoors. To prevent injury to children while playing, adults should be sure to remove all furniture with sharp corners, as well as all glass objects. To conduct a competition at home, the premises must be cleared as much as possible.

There are a huge number of options for conducting a competition. They use a variety of things. It is this factor that affects the total cost of the competition. Some of them (intellectual) are organized without additional things at all, therefore, do not require any costs.

It will take a lot of time to prepare contests for children. On average, this figure ranges from 3 to 6 hours. The most difficult ones are prepared even for several days. This is due to the fact that during the preparation you need to find a room, prepare and decorate it, write a script, draw up a budget, purchase the necessary items for the competition, etc.

At the age of 11, the child begins to grow up. By this age, he has accumulated a sufficient store of knowledge. Right now, for the first time, he has a conscious desire to seem an adult independent person, to stand out from the crowd. All this must be taken into account when preparing the competition.

Try to guess

Glue a sheet of paper with any word (TV, for example) on one child's back, he does not know what is on his back for the word pasted. Therefore, he asks other children questions, and they say "YES" or "NO" (for example: is this object round? - no, is it edible - no, it is in the house - yes, etc.) until he guesses what kind of word.

Guess the picture

The presenter shows the players a picture, which is covered by a large sheet with a hole two to three centimeters in diameter in the middle. The presenter moves the sheet over the picture. Participants must guess what is shown in the picture. The winner is the one who guesses faster.

Sea chain

Participants are given a box of paper clips each. At the signal, they begin to make a chain using these clips. Playing against the clock - about 1-2 minutes. Whoever makes the longest chain during this time wins.

Push push

Children are divided into pairs, each pair becomes backs to each other and interlocks with elbows. The task is to run to the finish line without disengaging, and then return in the same position back.

Monopoly

Players can buy real estate in the most different countries using plastic cards. In addition to hotel buildings and ordinary green houses, children will be able to buy Swiss chalets and African reed huts, Chicago skyscrapers and Chinese pagodas ... The advantages of the game are obvious: children learn concepts such as "investment", "stock exchange", "initial accumulation of capital" - and after all realities modern world are such that without knowledge of the fundamentals of economics there is nothing to do in it.

Applause

You need to split into 2 teams.

The host announces what kind of applause he wants to hear.

ingratiating, sycophantic;
lazy and condescending
loud, encouraging;
lazy and condescending;
restrained, delicate;

This game allows you to introduce children, or vice versa, it is better to remember or assimilate various emotions and their expression.

The audience determines the winners.

Uncle Fyodor's letter

The player sits in circles and everyone is given blank sheets of paper and pens. The host asks the question: "Who?" Players write the names of their heroes at the top of the sheet. After that, fold the sheet so that the written is not visible. After that, they pass the sheet to the neighbor on the right. The host asks: "Where did you go?" Everyone writes, folds the paper and passes it to the neighbor on the right. Host: “Why did he go there?”…. Etc. After that, a fun reading together begins.

Interesting answers

The participant of the competition is seated with his back to everyone, and a plate with pre-prepared inscriptions is fixed on his back. The labels can be very different - "Toilet", "School", "Shop", etc. The rest of the participants ask him various questions, such as "why do you go there, how often, and so on." The player, not knowing what is written on the plaque hanging on his back, must answer these questions.

"Pop the balls."

"Sea battle".

The guys are divided into two groups and stand on either side of a large basin of water. After the word "Start!" children splash each other with water. According to the rules of the competition, one cannot turn away, so the player who turned his head away from the splashes decreases. The team that has one person left wins. This competition can also be held in a pool or on a river.

"Dwarfs and Giants".

Children stand in a circle and join hands (this way the children can help their friend if he gets confused). When the leader says the word "dwarfs", the players should squat down, and when the "giants" - stand up. Anyone who makes a mistake is eliminated from the competition.
"Sea chain". Players are given a lot of paper clips. Of these, they must form a chain within 2 minutes. The one with the longest chain wins.

Cracker.

Children participating in the competition are given a lock and a bunch of keys. The essence of the rivalry is to pick up the key and open the lock the fastest.

"South America".

Each participant is given a costume that matches the Latin American culture. When the music comes on, the children should perform a dance song. The winner is the one who has the best feel for the peculiarities of Latin American dances.

Birthday contests on the street and at home

It is preferable to hold competitions outdoors. A house or apartment does not always have the required space. A small space will constrain the actions of children, so the rivalry may not work out fair.

If there is no way to take the children out into nature, then on the eve of the birthday you need to prepare the largest room in the house for competitions. All furniture should be removed from it so that there is more free space.

It is necessary to arrange in advance all the things that the presenter will need for the competition. To do this, you can put a round table in the corner of the room and close it with a screen from prying eyes. You can also put a music center or laptop with speakers there.

Nature contests will be much more interesting. The very stop is conducive to joy and fun. It has been noticed that if the game is played outdoors, children are more willing to take part in it.

For competitions, you can use a variety of sports equipment that cannot be used at home: badminton, volleyball or soccer ball, tennis rackets, etc. Naturally, the direction of the competitions changes: most often they acquire a sports character. Such contests are suitable for children of any age.

What to look for when conducting competitions

First of all, you need to clearly define which age group will take part in the competition. When children of the same age play, then it is much easier, because they have the same interests.

If the guys are of different ages, it is important to consider whether a particular competition will be interesting to everyone present.
Holding a children's competition, as mentioned above, requires a lot of free space.
The organizers should take care of where the celebration will take place in advance.
You should also take into account the nature and personal characteristics of each invited child. If most of the children are not active, there is no need to include sports competitions in the script. In this case, intellectual competitions are suitable.

When a child turns 11, he wants to show his individuality by all means. Contests should be based on this. They should be aimed at creating a cohesive and friendly atmosphere in the team, and in no way make a hint of the child's failure or his inability.

We've brought you fun, fun contests, games, and entertainment for your 11th birthday at home.

Competitions for New Year 2019 new year games and entertainment

Children of different interests and strangers at the age of 10-12 were invited to the holiday. Now at this age, if children are already adults, if teenagers are still very young. I was faced with the task of finding such a holiday scenario that would be interesting for both the first and second categories of children. So that the holiday will be remembered for a long time, first of all, to my daughter and, of course, to her friends. Using the materials of entertaining leisure for children and scenarios for children's matinees, I decided to generalize them and come up with my own. The scenario is very simple, it does not take much time in preliminary preparation, special material costs does not require. The hosts of this event were me - (mother) and my daughter Angelica.

All guests congratulate the birthday girl, get to know each other and sit down at the table. To avoid confusion at the table, my daughter and I prepared cards with the names of the invited children, put the cards on the table. On the spread of each card, they explained what the name meant, and wrote a comic poem with it. For example:

Nadezhda: "Nadezhda" is a Russian name.

Over the world, clever Nadezhda!
Gayane: "earthly" is an ancient Greek name.
You're like a star in the night window

"I draw your attention to the content of the inscription in the middle of the cards. Let's read it one by one." Each of the guests reads humorous rhymes about themselves and the designation of the name.

Both adults and children love to guess riddles. Thanks to riddles, a person thinks about new, previously unnoticed properties of an object, learns to find the correct answer.

Further competition "brownie's tricks"... Cards are handed out, each with one set of words. You need to arrange the cards with letters so that you get the word:
monk - cinema, kevi - eyelids, ointments - winter, riag - game, kera - river, roll - eagle, and so on. Those who correctly and quickly collected the words are awarded tokens.

"You are probably already tired of mental work. Let's play comic lottery... One box contains both the prizes and rolled up notes with the names of the prizes. Each of you comes up, takes a note, reads what prize he got, and takes it himself.

Don't forget about the days of the calendar. (prize - calendar)

Captivating everyone with a thick, fluffy mane. (prize - comb)

Calmly brew a mug of tea. (prize - a mug or tea bag)

But the smell is just incomparable. (prize - cream)

Host - Angelica:

"I want to show you some funny and hilarious tricks. Focus "I am clairvoyant"... I learned to read minds. I suggest you write your plan on pieces of paper (for example: drink a glass of juice, look at the ceiling, etc.), glue these sheets in an envelope and give it to me. "

For the uninitiated, what follows looks like this. The magician takes the envelope, puts it on the table, covers it with his palm and says: "They ask me to look out the window. Was there such a request?" The magician at this time opens the envelope and does not read the contents of the note aloud. Someone answers: "Yes". The session continues. The magician takes the next envelope, etc. What is the secret? At the beginning of the session, the magician asks his sister (mother, grandmother) to join the drawing, having previously agreed with her about the content of the note in the envelope, and it is also necessary that she somehow mark the envelope (for example, fold a corner). The magician will take this envelope last. And having taken any envelope, he "reads thoughts" not from the envelope in his hands, but from an agreed-upon agreed phrase written by his sister (mother, grandmother). When the magician seems to be checking what he has written against what he has “read”, he actually memorizes the contents of the note in order to “read” it while guessing over the next envelope.

Host - Angelica:

"Now I want to show you a small draw "at least three times"... Who would like to participate? Here's a strip of paper. We bet you can't rip it three times? "

The participant replies that he will cope with such a trifle and will now show how it is done. It really breaks the strip. The presenter raises his eyebrows in surprise and says: "But I told you - from three ..."

Host - Angelica:

"Guys, you are great: dexterous, resourceful, smart. And you have not forgotten who the holiday is dedicated to today? Of course, the birthday boy. Let's congratulate him. So, "comic congratulations"... The birthday boy gets up, the guests are given a box with little notes-words (boldly, quickly, accurately, slowly, loudly, cheerfully, cheerfully, skillfully, beautifully, quietly). The leader reads the text, and the children take turns taking out notes, finishing sentences and sticking words on the postcard. The more ridiculous, the more fun. Then everyone puts their signatures. Sample text:

Dear Birthday Girl! Congratulations on your anniversary!
We wish you that you
I got up in the morning .....................,
I washed my face .........................,
Did the exercises ......................,
Had breakfast ..........................,
I went to school ........................,
She answered in the lesson ...............,
At recess she behaved ...................,
I prepared my homework ............,
And she also studied well.

Next, a birthday cake with candles is introduced. The birthday boy makes a wish and blows out the candles. The birthday girl thanks all the guests and asks to leave her self-portraits, and each must draw himself blindfolded, and then sign with his name. It turned out very interesting and funny.

Then the number of tokens is counted and prizes are awarded.

Everyone liked the holiday: both my daughter and her guests. Conversations about an interesting holiday did not stop for several days.

Elena and Angelica.
