New Year Games and fun for the family is easy and casual. Everyone is familiar to each other, there is no constraint and tension. With family you can arrange a large number of fun that will appeal to adults and children.

Guess the face

For the competition, you will need medium sized mittens to fit the hands of both an adult and a child. Another essential attribute is a thick scarf. Everyone, without exception, can participate in the entertainment. The game is played as follows:
1. The person who wants to guess the face is brought to the center of the room.
2. A scarf is tied over the eyes of the guessing one.
3. Put on prepared mittens on hands.

5. A blindfolded relative, feeling his face with his hands in mittens, must determine who is in front of him.
6. It is allowed to touch only the face and hair.
7. As soon as the guessing person says the correct option, the bandage is removed.
To complicate the competition, those who are guessed can be misled by changing their height or hairstyle.

New Year's Pathfinder

For this competition, cut out snowflakes should be prepared in advance. They will need at least 30 pieces. One of the household members is sent to another room while the rest of the family members hide snowflakes all over the room. Hiding places can be very different and unexpected. You can put a snowflake in your pocket, throw it over a chandelier, or hide it under a salad bowl.
When all the snowflakes are hidden, the one who will look for them is called into the room. Relatives should help the search by commenting "cold" and "warm". As soon as the seeker is very close to the place of hide and seek, the relatives should start shouting “hotly”. This competition is especially loved by children.

Useful!
Take care of your device for shooting. Family photos or videos while having fun are great keepsakes. Lively faces, spontaneous funny pictures will give unforgettable emotions and memories with each viewing.

Family relay races

Relatives gathered at the same table during a feast can arrange a break without leaving the table. All those present should be divided into two teams. Participants can be categorized by gender, children and adults, or generations. The competition is held as follows:
1. It is necessary as soon as possible to pass the next member of the team an apple, sandwiched between the chest and chin. The receiver must also pick it up with his chin.
2. Each family member is given one toothpick, which he must clamp with his lips. The first in the chain is put on a ring on a toothpick. The task is to pass the ring along the chain as quickly as possible with the help of toothpicks clamped in the mouth.
3. The first participants need to quickly whisper a word, which they must pass just as quickly and quietly to the next one after the “Start” command. The team that at the end correctly names the word given by the presenter wins. Speed ​​and whispering can play a funny joke. The last of the chain can get the most unpredictable variant or set of letters at the end.
There are many contests for children and adults who are going to celebrate the New Year. You can play Crocodile, sing songs, make riddles.

New Year's activities for kids

For kids new year holidays often carried out separately. Under the chimes, most often the kids are already asleep or are very capricious. Arrange a children's party separately. This can be a kindergarten or home activity. In addition to treats, consider entertainment. It will be great if someone close to you will change into Santa Claus and Snow Maiden. Choose the appropriate musical selection from New Year's and children's songs.

Round dance

What meeting of the New Year is complete without a friendly round dance around the tree? Place a dressed-up green beauty in the middle of the room and walk around her humming a famous song. It is better to mix children and adults so that the procession is friendly and cheerful.
Who will name more new year songs
It is worth preparing a bag with small gifts, sweets or fruits in advance. Children are asked to name as many songs as possible where winter, New Year, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, Christmas tree, snowflakes, snow and gifts are mentioned. For the answers, reward the little ones with a small prize.

It is not worth deciding the winner in this competition. Both teams must receive equal prizes. Prepare sweet gifts, books or toys for each participant in advance. Joint homemade paintings can later be framed and kept as a keepsake.

Repeat

A host is invited for the competition. Better if it is Santa Claus or Snow Maiden. Children are shown in a semicircle. The task of the game is to touch yourself for the part of the body that the presenter pronounces aloud. At the same time, he touches himself for completely different parts of the body. For example, Grandfather Frost says “Ear!” And grabs his nose.
This is very funny competition that develops children. The facilitator must alternate between right and wrong actions. It is difficult to find a winner in this game, so you can reward all participants with sweet prizes.

Surprises from a New Year's bag

The presenter or Santa Claus goes to the center of the room with a bag in which small gifts are hidden. These can be candies, fruits, small toys, mini-books. The children gathered around must guess the riddles. It is not necessary to only touch new year theme, you can ask fascinating questions about fairy-tale characters and animals. The fastest and most active should be encouraged with a gift. Make sure that no kid is left without a reward.

If one of the guys is shy, Santa Claus can pretend to be deaf and go up to a separate modest kid to hear the answer.

Drinking contests

During the celebration of the night of the transition to the next year, guests should not only be deliciously fed, but also interestingly entertained. If the room does not allow active games, table contests will come to the rescue. They liberate all those present, introduce each other better, and allow them to be creative.

Name the word by letter

The table competition is suitable for both children and adults. The leader at the table names any letter of the alphabet, and all guests should name words for this letter, which they can show in the room.

New Year's competition "Who is the last?"
Requires 5-6 participants and one less glasses than the players, as well as a drink. The guests stand around the table, on which there are glasses. They turn on the music, the guests start running around the table, when they turn off, the participants grab their glasses and drink the contents to the bottom. Whoever is left without a glass is eliminated. Etc. The most important thing is that there are always fewer glasses than those who play. The winner will be one of the two remaining who will drink the last glass.

Stream of wallpaper
A wallpaper track is laid on the floor. Women are encouraged to spread their legs wide and walk along the "stream" without getting their feet wet. After the first attempt, it is proposed to repeat the "walk along the stream", but already with a blindfold. All other future participants in the game should not see how it is being played. Having passed the brook with her eyes blindfolded, and at the end of the way, having removed the blindfold from her eyes, the woman discovers that a man is lying on the stream, face up (the man lies on the wallpaper after the task has been completed, but the blindfold has not yet been removed from the participant's eyes). The woman is embarrassed. A second contestant is invited, and when everything is repeated again, the first contestant laughs heartily. And then the third, fourth ... Everyone has fun!

Santa Claus gives a bag to one of the participants. He must quickly get rid of him, pass it on to someone, because if the music stops and he ends up with him, then he is a loser. Next comes the punishment. V in this case it is like this - Santa Claus unties the bag, and the loser, without looking, pulls out the first object that comes across. Then, under the Homeric laughter of the audience, he puts on this object over himself - over the clothes. After that, everything continues. The losing guest dances in a new outfit. The music stops again and now the next participant, who had a bag at this time, tries on a new costume.

"Question answer"
The competition rules are very simple. First, the following questions and answers must be printed on cards of the same size. It is advisable to use thick paper or thin cardboard. You should get two identical decks: in one - questions, in the other - answers. And then everything is simple. Shuffle each deck thoroughly and place in the center of the table. The first player takes a question card and reads it to his neighbor. He takes the card with the answer and reads the answer aloud. Then the question is asked by the person who answered his next neighbor, and so on in a circle. Even with a cursory glance at the list below, you can imagine what kind of coincidence there might be. For example, it is worth: “Do you like to swim naked? “On Saturdays I have a need.” Or: “Tell me, do you like me? - When I am drunk, and I am always drunk! ”. Only it is desirable to sit down like this: guy - girl - guy - girl. Since when two guys sit next to each other, all questions like: "Do you like me?", "Do you like to look me in the eye?" and even "What would you say if I kissed you now?" come across just these guys (repeatedly tested on their own experience). And what answers they come across to this, it is generally "incomprehensible to the mind."
3.

What I have collected today is suitable for a situation when several families with children gather in one apartment to celebrate the New Year. You must agree that some part of the evening must be devoted to little guests.

If adults participate, everything will be even more fun! A real family holiday!

What we have?

All children different ages but with the same desire to have fun. There will be no invited Santa Claus (or is it a 5-minute formality), and you have not been able to bring up your own in the team.

There is no place in the apartment for very active games, you did not have time to make complex props for games.

Well? Fits? Read on!

I will give New Year's contests for children in thematic blocks. Choose suitable options, make a program taking into account the alternation of mobile and table contests.

From these scripts and selections, you can add contests to your program:

And further!

Ready

Take a look interesting ideas in other scenarios:, (this is my favorite selection),
Add a few contests for toddlers to the script and you have a complete program!

CONTINUE !!

Lotteries and fortune-telling

From experience, both children and adults always like it. Apparently, everyone is interested in looking into the future and testing their luck.

Choice of Santa Claus and Snow Maiden

We put notes in the capsules from the kinders (you can just paper rolls in a bag). All participants of the feast are pulling! On one note "Santa Claus", on the other - "Snow Maiden". All others can be empty, but it is better to distribute New Year's roles to all guests: snowflakes (there may be 20 of them), Grandma Winter, The Snow Queen, Snowman and so on. If Santa Claus is 2 years old, and Snegurochka is 55, you have succeeded :-)!

Now we announce the first New Year's dance of the lucky ones! Do not forget to put the necessary attributes on them and take a picture at the Christmas tree.

Predicting success

Everyone is pleased to know that only success awaits in the future. Therefore, we put in a hat the names of all those present, written on pieces of paper, and voice questions like these:

- Who will be the best student in the new year? (pulling a piece of paper ...)

- Kate! (well, or grandmother Tanya ...)

• Who will make the great discovery?
• Who will find the treasure?
• Who will win the lottery?
• Who will receive the most gifts?
• Who will have the most good news in the new year?
• Who will travel a lot?
• Who is waiting for the most big surprise in 2015?
• Who will be the most successful at work (school)?
• Who will be the most athletic in the new year?
• Who will be the healthiest?
• Who will become famous?
• Who's Biggest Dream Come True?

What's in the black box ...

Now we will all be psychics. Put a box on a chair in the center of the room (you can use it from under the shoes), and offer to guess what is there. Allow guests to walk up to the box, make movements with their hands, copying the magicians.

We begin to accept one answer from each person present. Children naturally assume toys, adults whatever.

You can put a really valuable item in the box that will suit any gender and age (a cup with the symbol of the year, for example), or you can use a cracker. Let everyone get confetti for their work :-). By the way, now there are crackers, from which 100-dollar bills fly out.

New Year's word ...

Prepare a bunch of little prizes (candy, chocolate medals, gum, calendars).

Can be carried out at the table: Look under your plates! Each of you has one letter! " (write letters in advance on cards)

So that's it. Now we ask you to name the "New Year" words for each of these letters. For every word - a PRIZE!

But to the one who will put together the word "Snow Maiden" from letters, we give something more substantial.

• WITH- snow, icicles, snowflakes, snowballs, candles
• N — New Year, outfit
• E- spruce
• G- guests, garland
• Have- luck, food, decoration,
• R- practical jokes,
• O- Olivie
• H- watch
• TO- confetti, calendar, clown, karaoke, costume
• A- applause, scent, angel, actor

You can name the dishes that are on New Year's table, fairy-tale heroes, in which guests are dressed up, drinks, games, natural phenomena and so on.

Who quickly?

Chiming clock

Divide children and adults into 2 teams. We give everyone decorations for the Christmas tree and clothespins. Toys, snowflakes and garlands must be hung on ... one of the team members. Let him spread his fingers and shine like a Christmas tree!

Yes! You can also hold a garland in your teeth.

Start recording with the chimes (YouTube has it)! Whoever gets the funniest Christmas tree in 1 minute while the recording is in progress wins!

Take the gift

Two participants. Two boxes (can be from shoes) with prizes, wrapped in nice paper... Tie a ribbon (2 - 2.5 m) to each box, the other end to a pencil.

We put the participants on one line, put pencils in their hands. 1-2-3! We start winding the tape around the pencil. The one who does it faster takes the prize.

You can also joke. Let the child and the adult compete. We put something very light in the "children's" box, and in the "adult" - dumbbell... Let it reel! 🙂

Making a snowman ... together!

We need softened plasticine. Two participants sit side by side at the table, you can hug. Left hand of one participant and the right hand of the other should act as if they were the hands of one person.

How difficult it is ... Try to pinch off a piece of plasticine, roll three balls between your palms (remember, two people are involved), then stick a carrot and eyes.

Let there be adults and children in each pair, it's more fun.

Grab

It is somewhat like playing with chairs, when someone who is gaping has nowhere to sit. Only no chairs are needed - just a small table or stool with a tray on which are carnival accessories - spouts, glasses, wigs, caps. The one who did not get the decoration by the end of the sounding of the music drops out. Naturally, the accessory needs not only to have time to grab, but also to put on. For the second round, we put everything on a stool again, continue until 1 winner is revealed.

Balloon contests

I will not repeat myself, as I have already written an article. In general, you can take them as a basis and conduct all children's New Year's contests only with balls.

Throwers, knocks, hitters 🙂

Here intelligence is not needed, and it is quite possible to entertain guests from 3 to 103.

From experience, such competitions sometimes turn out to be very reckless. It is difficult to guess what exactly your guests will like, I will just list the options, and you will decide on the available props and set aside a place for the game.

• if there is any version of darts (magnetic, balls with Velcro), feel free to assign a prize to the most accurate one, interest in the competition will be sure
• pins or plastic bottles filled with beans, peas or water are fun to knock down with a rubber ball at any age. The prize for winning the New Year's bowling!
• throwing "snowballs" from the newspaper into the basket (what if someone has a score of 10 out of 10?). Distance - 2 meters!

Blindfold!

Standard set comic contests, but the New Year is always a success.

Here are 3 options:

• to cut the prize off the ribbon (it is more fun if the rope is not tied to the cabinets, but given in the hands of two guests - let them change the height after the player has ceased to see the target.

• sticking a plasticine nose to a drawn snowman is also not so easy (we blindfold, untwist it, let the participant see a poster with a picture)

• build a pyramid of plastic cups. Before blindfolding, we show the "drawing" of the tower - 4 inverted cups at the base, then three, two, one on top. The fastest and most accurate builder wins

Comic concert!

We collect all music, circus and dance competitions here.

Noise Orchestra

Great fun for a mixed group of adults and children from 2 to 12 years old. ...

Poetic horoscope!

We remember what Symbols of the Year are in the horoscope, let the guests name their own. If there are 2 dogs or 3 snakes, joint performance is allowed.

Exercise: read Mikhalkov's poem

They say on New Year's Eve
Whatever you want -
Everything will always happen
Everything always comes true

how… rat, pig, dragon, snake, cat, dog, bull, tiger, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster!

Neon show

To be honest, it was unexpectedly effective even for me, although I came up with this idea and implemented it. For seven children who, together with adults, celebrated the New Year, I bought neon glowing accessories. Previously, these were only bracelets, now there are glasses, beads, jewelry on the head, ears and sticks. By the way, I bought earrings for myself.

So ... I gathered the children in a separate room and dressed everyone, from toddlers to teenagers, in these jewelry (bracelets for arms and legs can be used):

Then I turned on "Jingle Bells" in the fatal version, put out the lights in the room and turned on all the glowing children. It was very cool, as the children started jumping and spinning, neon decorations seemed to fill the whole space. I'll tell you, light show was no worse than those for which they pay a lot of money at corporate events :-). All these accessories are sold in almost all stores with festive tinsel.

Dance "Train" + family disco

This is an excuse to distract all guests from eating salads. We invite adults and children, we build according to their height and ask them to put their hands on the waist of the previous dancer. This picture touches me. May stand ahead long-long teen, behind him are all the grandmothers and grandfathers, "the last trailer" - a two-year-old baby. The video is great, don't forget to shoot.

I must say that the locomotive disintegrates rather quickly, but for us this is also good, since the guests are already ready to dance a little. It's boring to trample under one long song at a family party, so we turn on the following cuts from hits one by one (copy the link): http://muzofon.com/search/music%20for%20contests.

New Year's karaoke (battle of choirs)

As a rule, karaoke sites have a selection of winter songs. If not, add them to your favorites folder in advance so as not to search for these songs on New Year's Eve:

• "A Christmas tree was born in the forest, it grew in the forest ..."
• "The ceiling is icy, the door is creaky."
• "Three white horses"
• "It's cold for a little Christmas tree in winter"
• "Blue frost"
• "Snow is falling"
• "Five minutes":
• "Song about bears"

Sites with online karaoke have sections of New Year's songs; you do not need to search for each separately.

Not everyone likes to sing solo, so you'll have four nominations: children's choir, female choir, male, mixed.

Obstacle dance

All guests become in right side rooms. We need plastic cups again. We build from them a low fence (2 floors), which guests can easily overcome, dancing, moving to the left side of the room.

We build on one more "floor". Everyone crosses the wall again, making dance moves. We build in this way until the participants need to jump. The most agile wins a prize!

If there are no stanak, we pull the rope (held by two people) at a height of 20, 30, 40, 50 cm from the floor, and so on.

Phototests

You will laugh twice. During the process itself and after a while, when you get ready-made pictures.

We use Christmas accessories, do not skimp on facial expressions and gestures!

For each guest you come up with a casting with photo tests for the role:

• the kindest Santa Claus
• the most greedy Santa Claus
• the most beautiful Snow Maiden
• the most sleepy Snow Maiden
• the most overeating guest
• the happiest guest
• the most cunning Baba Yaga
• the most evil Kashchei
• the strongest hero
• the most capricious princess
• the biggest snowflake
• etc…

Little things from Santa Claus

In Europe, this entertainment is called "Secret Santa", but we are patriots, we have our wonderful grandpa. I came up with such a legend ... Santa Claus walked with gifts through the forest, caught on a branch, but slightly tore the bag. Large gifts remained in the bag, but small ones fell out. We picked them up and now we will present them to all guests!

We buy small and pleasant little things in advance and wrap them in opaque wrapping paper. Personally, to speed up the process, I just put a souvenir in a square piece of paper, shape a bag and tie it with a ribbon. I have been shopping all December - 2-3 items with each shopping basket in the store. By the end of the month I have a whole bag of kinders liquid soap in the form of animal figurines, candles, frames, calendars, chocolate hares, key chains and flashlights.

You ask "Who is this gift for?" You can pull pieces of paper out of the hat, but my son likes to appoint the lucky one himself: "Uncle Zhenya!" We return the gift, wait for him to demonstrate to everyone the lost trifle from Santa Claus, then another question "To whom is this gift?" Every time I am surprised with what trepidation the guests are waiting for these gifts ... Even adults :-).

Let's laugh and think

If you have a lot of adults at the party, buy ready-made selections with tasks on cards.

Honestly, I accidentally opened these wonderful cards with tasks at a ridiculous price. The real host entertained us, but I remembered the box with the tasks ... They laughed until hiccups, some words from related languages ​​sound too funny for the Russian ear. Actually, they had to be guessed (the options were proposed).

"Zashkodnik"- 120 double-sided cards. Well, for example, "T-shirt" in translation from Bulgarian is who? Mom, cousin or grandmother? Or what should you imagine if the word in Czech sounds like "hammer"? And there are also all sorts of stinks, battles and obscurity (these are all decent words in translation).

What else happens?

• "Erundopel"- a collection of rare words of the Russian language (so rare that even from the proposed options it is difficult to choose the correct one to explain the meaning)
• "Why meter"- 120 questions with answers, such as "Why is a camel depicted on the flag of the Chelyabinsk region?"
• "Quote Meter"- 120 cards on which you will be asked to end a quote from a great person
• "Personometer"- 120 name cards. You just need to remember and choose the correct answer: Rabindranath Tagore is WHO?

The sets are available in bookstores in the "Entertainment" section.
