New Year's contests for preschoolers

Round dance around the tree
To get the youngest players interested, you need to try: kids very quickly lose interest if the activity does not catch them. In such a situation, round dances around the tree will save. It's a safe bet that kids of all ages love. Usually round dances are led to the song "It's cold for a little Christmas tree" or "A Christmas tree was born in the forest."

Game "What are Christmas trees?"
The presenter (his role can be played by the Snow Maiden or Santa Claus) says:
- Look what an elegant Christmas tree we have: all in beautiful toys and garlands. Guys, do you know where the Christmas trees grow? Of course, in the forest! Fir-trees are different: wide and thin, high and low.
Next, the facilitator must explain the rules of the game:
- Guys, stand in a circle and take each other's hands, and I will tell you what Christmas trees are like. If I say, "High," you must raise your hands up, and if you hear: "Low," you must sit down and lower your hands. If I mention wide Christmas trees, I need to make the circle wider. And if I say: "Thin", you have to make a circle already. Does everyone understand? One-two-three, let's start!

Music game
(to the motive of the song "Good Beetle" from the fairy tale film "Cinderella")
1. Stand up children, stand in a circle, stand in a circle, stand in a circle! Clap your hands without sparing your hands! Jump like bunnies: jump and jump, jump and jump! Now stomp, not sparing your feet!
2. 3a we will take hands quickly, more merrily and raise our hands up, we will jump above all! We will put our hands down, stamp with our right foot, stamp with our left foot and shake our head!
The game is repeated 2 more times.

Game "Dress up the Christmas tree"
Children are divided into two teams. Each has a box of Christmas decorations (preferably unbreakable). The essence of the game is that players must dress up an artificial tree, which stands at a distance from the teams. The child must take the toy from the box, run to the Christmas tree, hang the toy on it and return to his team. And so on until the last player. The first team to decorate the tree wins.

Game "Cat and mouse"
Three players from the team are dressed up in cat costumes and handed to them on a stick, to which a long rope is tied. A fake mouse is attached to the opposite end of the rope. The players wind the rope on a stick to the accompaniment of cheerful music, and gradually the mouse approaches. The most agile cat, who managed to catch the mouse faster than the others, wins.

The Christmas tree met the guests.
Five children came first
So as not to get bored on a holiday,
Everyone began to count on it:
Two snowflakes, six firecrackers,
Eight gnomes and parsley
Seven gilded nuts
Among the twisted tinsel,
We counted ten cones,
And then they got tired of counting.
Three little girls came running ... "

Are you ready to dance at the Christmas tree sometimes?
The holiday is nonsense, shall we get bored better?
Santa Claus brought sweets, will you eat them?

For children from 10 years old

Competition "New Year's Suit"
For this competition, you will need props: paper (large enough - at least A4), tape, pins, scissors and glue.
For a certain time (say, 10 minutes), you need to come up with and make a New Year's costume. The task is complicated by the fact that it is necessary to have time not only to make an outfit, but also to present it to the public, to tell what exactly it means and what it serves (for example, it is an evening outfit or a fancy dress). The jury evaluates the result with applause. The team with the loudest and longest standing ovation wins.

Competition "Ball with a surprise"
On sheets of paper, you need to write comic New Year's tasks, place notes in balloons, and then inflate them. Each participant should be given a ball with a task. It must be burst without the aid of hands. When the participant copes with this, he will need to complete the written task (for example, sing a song, dance the dance of little swans, etc.). Whoever makes it the funniest wins.

Competition "New Year's chain"
For this competition, you should prepare A4 sheets, glue stick and scissors. Two teams must participate. For a certain time (5-7 minutes), the participants must cut the strips (3 cm wide and 12 cm long), and then join them into a New Year's chain. The team that makes the longest chain wins.

01 Remember that children are very quick to switch their attention. Therefore, contests should not be made too long.
02 You shouldn't hold several contests at once. Dilute them with a dance program or concert numbers.
03 Be sure to reward and reward the winners.

In order not to be bored at the New Year's party in the company, it is necessary to think over a fun program in advance, including interesting contests. As a rule, such moments enliven any event, allow the participants to feel at ease, to get to know each other better.

It is desirable that more people participate in the entertainment - then laughter and fun will contribute to a good mood on New Year's Eve, banishing boredom and drowsiness.

1. Snowball

The competition can be held sitting at the table. This is an acquaintance game that, in an unfamiliar company, allows you to remember the names of all the party participants, as well as have fun right at the very beginning of the holiday.

The first participant says his name. The second participant says the name of the previous participant, as well as his own name. So the game continues further, with each participant the list of names that must be pronounced becomes longer and longer.

Then the game can be complicated by asking the participants to add to their name also some nickname on the theme of fairy-tale characters, for example "Peter - Batman", "Anna - Fiona" and so on.

In this competition, the winners are difficult to determine, but the process of pronouncing names will already be a real fun.

2. Catch the "snake"

Two participants sit on chairs facing each other. Under the chairs lies a rope - "snake", the ends of which pass between the feet of each participant.

At the command of the main leader, the participants should sharply lean forward, trying to grab the rope faster than the opponent and pull it out from under the chair.

The most agile wins - he then competes with the next competitor, and so on, until a stand-out winner is determined.

3. Together we will win the winter!

Everyone is in pairs. Each pair is given a piece of ice (ice in identical molds must be prepared for the competition in advance). At the signal, the couple tries to quickly melt their ice in any way - you can blow on it, lick it, put it on the body, between your palms, rub. Participants are not allowed to use heating appliances and hot utensils to melt their ice cube. The couple with the first ice melt will win.

4. New Year's songs

For this competition, you don't even have to leave the table. The whole company is divided into two teams. The draw will determine which group starts first.

The essence of the competition is to remember all the songs about the New Year, Christmas tree, Christmas, winter, snow, blizzards, and sing a verse of each. The group that remembered more songs wins.

You can change this competition slightly as follows. Small pieces of paper are prepared in advance, words on the theme of the New Year and winter are written on them - "Snow Maiden", "Blizzard", "Santa Claus", "Snow", "winter", "December".

Representatives from the teams take out one piece of paper from a colorful box, and try to quickly remember the song, where the given word is, they perform it. This competition can be arranged as a small concert-improvisation.

5. Competition for the fulfillment of wishes

This competition must be prepared in advance as follows. A note with some Christmas-themed task is embedded in the balls, for example: "Show the battle of the Kremlin chimes", "Show the dance of snowflakes", "Show the snow woman", "Show the icicle", "Show the Christmas tree", "Show the drunk Santa Claus" , "Sing a New Year's song in a child's voice" and so on. These tasks should be varied and fun, and a large number of them must be prepared.

It is also necessary to pour small confetti into the balls, inflate them and hang them somewhere higher.

For the competition, all those present are divided into two groups. The participant of the first team must burst the ball with his hand or a stick - he will be sprinkled with confetti, a piece of paper with the task will fall out. Then he must do the task as best as possible to the applause and laughter of those present.

If the participant does not want to complete this task, the team receives minus 1 point. Together with each participant, everyone present can perform the task, competing as a reproduced scene. The most active team wins.

6. New Year's alphabet

This competition can be held right at the festive table. The presenter of the holiday announces that he wants to check if everyone remembers the alphabet.

Each of the participants in turn pronounces a Happy New Year to all participants, starting the phrase with one letter of the alphabet, with "A". For example, "A" - "And let's wish all the ladies present a Happy New Year!"; "B" - "Be healthy and happy in the New Year!"

The culmination of this competition will be attempts to come up with phrases for the letters "b", "f", "b", "y". Agile and resourceful participants in the competition must somehow get out of the situation or laugh it off.

7. Playing snowballs

For this competition, a sufficient number of "snowballs" from cotton wool are made in advance. All those present are divided into two teams and stand on opposite sides of the hall.

At the command of the leader, both teams begin to throw prepared snowballs at each other, there is noise, confusion, laughter. Then, at the command of the leader, the "war" ends. Each team must collect all the "snowballs" that fell on their side of the hall. The winner is the group that gets the most.

Then this competition can be continued with comic tasks - the participants of both teams compete in carrying the “snowball” on the head, on the chest, on the back - so that they do not hold it with their elbows, hands, and so that the “snowball” does not fall to the floor.

8. Santa Claus sneezed

This competition is not held to determine the winners, but to create general fun and laughter.

All those present are divided into three groups. At the beginning, the members of each group are told that they, according to a certain command - for example, by the wave of a "magic wand", each must shout out their own magic word. These words are for three teams - "achi", "eyes", "cartilage".

The teams must shout these words simultaneously, all together, and the one who shouts her word louder than others will win. At special signals, the teams shout their words all together.

As a result, all this noise will be like the sneezing of a giant. The presenter can further provoke and amuse the participants of this competition, answering every "sneeze" - "Bless you, Santa Claus!"

9. Rolling snowballs

This competition is held between male + female couples.

Gentle music sounds, the participants dance a slow dance. Then the music stops, the presenter distributes small balls to the couples, which he places between the bellies of the ladies and gentlemen.

At a special signal from the host of the competition, more energetic music begins to sound, and the partners try to roll the ball to the chin with the movements of their bodies so as not to drop it or touch it with their hands.

10. Festive conveyor

From among those present, five participants are selected in two teams, they are given names: "open-ka", "pour-ka", "drink-ka", "bite-ka", "close-ka".

At the tables for two teams at the end of the hall, there are bottles of sparkling water (for adult companies - with champagne or wine), a glass, and a sandwich.

At the start signal of our host, the first participants from the starting mark run to the tables, open a bottle. The second participants must run to the tables and pour the drink into the glass to the brim. The third pair of participants run to drink the poured in glasses. The fourth participants in the competition “have a snack” on a sandwich, the fifth ones run and close a bottle with a drink.

The winner is the team that is more accurate and faster to pass this relay.

Alternatively, there may be not five participants in the teams, but, for example, three or seven. Three sandwiches can be prepared, and the relay race is carried out until three laps have been completed, from opening the bottle to closing it.

11. Boxing ring

Two participants are called to the "stage" to compete with each other. The host announces that there will now be bloody battles between two real men. Participants are given boxing gloves.

Putting on gloves, the presenter accompanies the cooking process with the phrases “warming up” the audience: “Real men fight to the last!”, “The ring will show who is stronger!”. Participants can be stripped to the waist, allowed to stretch, jump, box in the air.

When the participants are warmed up and ready to fight each other, they are given ... a piece of candy in a wrapper (put on the tables). At the start signal “ring”, our “boxers” should try to quickly unfold this candy with their gloved hands, without dropping it from the table, and eat it.

The task with sweets can be replaced with another task: with your hands in boxing gloves, unfasten the buttons on the lady, who is first put on a dressing gown.

12. Queen of New Year's Eve

What fabulous evening would be complete without a queen? So on New Year's Eve, the participants will have to choose their main queen of the ball. For this, of course, the queens need to dress up in appropriate clothes, for which each team is given 1-2 rolls of toilet paper.

The task of the teams is to create a “royal dress” for their main “queen” within a certain period of time, for example, while all the other participants are singing some New Year's song.

The winner is the team whose outfit of the "queen" is better than that of other "queens".

13. Dancing with balls

When it's time to dance on the New Year's Eve, a very funny competition can be offered to the participants. All dancers have a balloon tied to the ankle of their left leg.

The essence of the competition is to keep your ball from the feet of other participants while dancing, and at the same time try to "burst" the balls from them.

Such "dances" turn into fun fuss, which gives a good mood and general fun.

14. Fun questions - fun answers

This competition requires a little preliminary preparation. It is necessary to cut cards of the same size from thick paper or cardboard, an even number, about two to three times more in quantity than the participants in the future party. On half of the cards, you need to write a variety of questions, putting them in a separate deck. On the second half of the cards, you need to write the answers - this will be the second deck.

Questions may be: "Do you know how to control yourself?", "If I kiss you - what will you say to this?"
"Do you like striptease?", "Do you often get drunk?" other. The answers can be of the following plan: “Only after payday”, “My youth is left behind”, “This is my favorite pastime”, “Only at night” and others.

The first participant calls the name of the person to whom he will ask the question, takes a card from the deck of questions, reads it.

The respondent takes a card from the deck of answers and reads it. Then the second participant calls the name of the next responder, takes a card with a question, reads - and the festival of funny questions and answers continues further.

15. Snow Lady of Dreams

This competition can also be held with real snow - if it is slightly damp outside, or if you bring large portions of snow into the hall on trays for the competition. The option without snow is to sculpt the "lady of dreams" from cotton wool, padding polyester.

Divide all participants into teams. Each team is given a "material" for sculpting, a start is announced. The team must "blind" a beautiful sculpture of a real beauty as best as possible, faster than rivals. In the process of "sculpting" you can use your own things, products from the table.

The couples participating in the game take out one piece of paper and touch each other with the part of their body that is indicated. Then they take out one more and perform both the current and the previous task at the same time. The game continues until young people have enough flexibility.

Seven funny New Year contests for any company

Blind Pirate game

The blind pirate was left to guard the treasure. His role is played by the captains of two teams. Various objects are laid out around them: scissors, a pair of shoes, toys and more. These are treasures. They will be hunted by the players of the opposite team. The robber is blindfolded. Opponents on the whistle make attempts to grab the treasure, and the guard is thieves. A thief captured three times is eliminated from the game. Time is recorded for each team. The one who quickly left the pirate without treasure won.

The game "There is a sun in every picture"

Relay competition for the street or large hall. Contestants are divided into two equal teams and stand in columns. Each is given a gymnastic stick, and at a distance of 10-15 m from the players, two hoops are placed on the floor. In turn, the players run up and spread sticks in the form of rays of the sun around their hoops. In whose team the last player will return to his place, she wins.

Competition "Plastic Christmas tree"

To hold this competition, it is necessary to prepare in advance a certain number of plastic cups (for example, eighty) in order to divide them equally and give one part to one of the two participants. The cups are stacked one to one. As soon as the competition begins, the players must assemble the Christmas tree from the "props" as quickly as possible, and then disassemble, carefully folding the cups as they were originally folded. The fastest of the two players wins.

Snowman T-shirt game

This competition will require three players who will have a seemingly trifling task - just put on a T-shirt faster than everyone else, thereby earning a victory in the competition. However, not all so simple. Before handing out the shirts to the players, they should be rolled up and frozen in the freezer, which will definitely make the task more difficult.

Read the lips contest

To run this competition, you will need two players (for one round) and two pairs of headphones. Each of the participants puts on headphones, in which music is already playing. It is necessary to check if it is loud enough so that the players cannot hear each other's speech. The first must ask the second a question, to which he, in turn, answers by reading his lips. After a certain period of time, the roles change. In this competition, victory goes to the one who understands the essence of most of the questions.

Game "Dangerous Dances"

To hold the competition, you will need from five to eight people, for each of whom you will need to prepare an already inflated balloon and something with which you can tie it. One ball is tied to the leg of one player. The task of each is to burst the balls of opponents. The last "survivor", whose ball remains intact, will win.
Competition "Race during the Sabbath"

This competition will require a certain amount of inventory. Prepare two handkerchiefs, two mops and two buckets in advance. An unlimited number of people can take part in the relay, but they must be divided into two equal teams, each of which is built at one end of the room. At the signal from the leader, the first of the line puts a scarf on his head as quickly as possible, sits on a broom and shoves one leg into the bucket, without using the command. In this form, the participant runs to the other end of the room and back, passing the baton to the next player in his team. Whichever one finishes faster - that one gets the victory.

Funny contests for adults for the New Year 2019

Competition "Anecdote with a beard"

This competition can be held without leaving the festive table. The presenter gets up and begins to tell some famous anecdote. Anyone who can continue it receives a piece of cotton wool, which must be glued to the chin. The same thing happens with the next anecdote. As a result, the winner is the participant who has the largest "beard".

Competition "Tape of Ariadne"

You should prepare for the competition in advance: cut a long ribbon into many pieces and hide them in different unexpected places in the hall. In addition, it will be good for the participants to give out such a piece as an example. Their task is to find as many hidden segments as possible and tie a ribbon from them. The prize is awarded to the one with the longer tape. It is better to hold the competition during dances, when the overhead light is extinguished and the room is illuminated only by light and music.

Competition "Competition of horsemen"

This competition is very popular due to its entertainment, gaiety and excitement. The presenter invites several people (usually 2-3), who are given carnival mustaches and hats. In addition, they are awarded "horses": children's horses on sticks. If you can't find them, you can use any long-handled household tool, such as a mop. The task of the players is to jump the distance to a certain target. It will be even more fun if you invite them to play the balalaika at the same time. The winner is the one who first arrived at the destination.

Game "Uncover the Secret!"

This game is for the whole company. Participants are given pieces of paper and pens. Half of them write questions, the other half write answers. Both questions and answers should be standard, for example: "Do you drink cognac in the morning?", "Do you cheat on the second half?" etc. Answers: “Sometimes”, “Only if no one sees”, “With pleasure” and the like. Questions are put in one pile, answers in another. The first player announces to whom he wants to ask a question and takes out a sheet. After that, he says: "Uncover the secret ..." and reads out the text that is written on the sheet. The person to whom the question is directed takes a sheet of paper from the pile of answers. Then the respondent himself asks a question to one of the players, and so on. The winner is the couple with the funniest or most original question-answer.

Competition "As soon as you hear the number 3, take the prize immediately!"

The competition is attended by 2 or 3 players. They stand around the chair on which the prize lies. Santa Claus calls the numbers in no particular order and suddenly sounds 3. At this moment, and you need to grab the prize. The quickest participant wins.

Snowball game

The snowballs in this game are white balloons, and the more they are inflated before the start of the game, the better. The players are divided into two teams. Each has a captain. Each of them is given a large trash bag with pre-drilled leg holes. Their task is to get into the bag and keep its top edge open. The presenter gives a signal, and ordinary team members enter the game. Their task is to collect snowballs scattered on the floor and throw them into their captain's bag. All this takes place with cheerful music. Then the presenter gives a signal to stop, the music stops, the game ends. Summing up begins - counting "snowballs". Which team has more of them. She won.

"Smell the smell"

Five are playing. For the game, different things are prepared in advance (a tea bag, an apple, money, a beer bottle, a book, etc.), which are attached to a string so that the players will not notice them. The first participant is invited to the room. The presenter blindfolds him and presents each item in turn. The player needs to determine in five seconds what kind of thing is in front of him, without touching it with his hands. Only the nose can be used. The winner is the one who has the best sense of smell and guesses the most things.

How to prepare for contests and games

1. Make a plan for games and contests. Supporting materials are best done on cards - if you need to stock up on some phrases, scripts and texts, then write or print them on ordinary cards in advance, this is much more convenient than using one large script.

2. Prepare the props. Having decided what you will play for the new year, make a list of what will be required for this or that competition. It is best to arrange the props and prizes according to thematic contests (I use small gift bags for this).

3. Stock up on prizes. People are very fond of getting little funny surprises - sweets, chocolates, cute New Year's toys. It is better to take prizes with a margin.

4. Pick up music.

5. Prepare a play area.

6. Identify your assistants.

The very first in the series of New Year's fun are corporate parties. How to meet them cheerfully, to create a mood for the whole year and have a great festive event? The closer the New Year's corporate party, the stronger the excitement.

Competition "Sing"

Number of players: Any
No props needed. They use their own vocal cords.

Essence: Participants are divided into 2 teams. In turn, one "chorus" should ask a question, remembering a line from a song. For example: "What can I give you, my dear man?" Opponents quickly find an answer - a line from another piece of music, for example: "A million, a million, a million scarlet roses ..." The last team to answer wins. You can complicate the task by choosing only New Year's questions.

Competition "What's my name?"

Number of players: Any.
Props: Cards made of paper with funny words on them (for example: lemur, bread slicer, bulldozer, cutie, etc.), of course not names.

The bottom line: Everyone gets a new name for the evening - a corresponding plate is attached to the back. The players' task is to find out their name from others. Only "yes" and "no" can be answered to questions. The winner is the one who is the first to guess the inscription on his tablet.

Corporate contests for the New Year 2019 (year of the Pig)

Relay "Pig's Hooves"

Props: for this competition, paper cups are required (along the edge of the glass, insert ribbons or strings into the slot on both sides, fasten with a knot from the inside).

The bottom line: Guests are divided into two or three teams, depending on the number of people. The first players in the team are given cups, they stand on them, take the ropes in their hands. On the contrary, in 5-7 meters there should be a space restriction, for example, a chair. The first participants, with musical accompaniment, slide to the obstacle, go around it, return to the team and pass the glasses to the next participants. The winner is the team that finishes the relay first, but you can reduce points for accuracy.

Competition "Advertising"

Two young men are called. The host asks them to choose one lady from the audience. Then the presenter asks the question: “What exactly, did you like this girl. Viewers choose - eyes, hair, shoes, etc.
Now the participants' task is to come up with an advertisement for this part of the body, a wardrobe item. The most creative ad wins.

Contest "Negotiations with polar bears and penguins"

An interesting and funny competition to "stretch" the brains of the whole team. The guests are divided into teams, about 5 people each. All teams receive the same task: negotiations with polar bears and penguins are to be held in the same office, but bears are predators, and penguins are birds. In theory, the first should eat the second. But, here you can relax, no one will eat anyone. And the teams will have to answer in a minute of discussion why they shouldn't worry, because 100 percent of polar bears will not eat penguins. There will be a lot of options. Ah, here is the correct answer, and one simple enough. But, he is unlikely to come to mind right away - polar bears will not eat penguins, because the former live at the North Pole, and the latter at the South Pole, and in principle cannot eat each other, so the meeting will be calm. And, if suddenly, the team answers correctly, of course, they will receive a prize.

Of course, after unforgettable fun at work, he comes, the long-awaited family holiday New Year. Hustle and bustle, cooking delicacies, outfits, everyone wants to celebrate the New Year with fun and chic.

The next one - with the letter "B". "Let's drink to our lovely hostess!"

Guests will begin to have fun when someone has to be original with the letter "E" or those toasts for which it is difficult to quickly come up with an initial word. The author of the most interesting toast wins.

Competition "Pop the ball"

Many family fun contests for the New Year are organized with balloons. In this case, you must first put small notes with funny riddles in them, and then inflate the balloons. During the fun, the host distributes them to the players. Each of its owners must burst the balloon and take out a note from there, read the riddle aloud and answer it.
