Family games on New Year's Eve. New Year's competitions for the family. Celebrate the New Year outdoors

There is nothing better than spending the New Year holidays with your family. But not just lie down on the sofa and watch TV, but celebrate this holiday noisily and cheerfully. Especially if you have small children. Therefore, you need to think in advance about how fun it is to meet New Year at home with family.

Prepare a festive atmosphere among the household

The holiday will be fun and relaxed only if all family members have good mood. And for this to be so, you need to set the right tone for him in advance. And collective preparation for the upcoming event will help in this. Involve everyone and give them assignments to the best of their ability:

  1. Together with the children, write a letter to Santa Claus, but do not do it for the child, let him create on his own, but under your clear guidance. Those who do not yet know how to write can express their wishes in the form of pictures.
  2. Buying gifts for relatives should also be done together, and what could be better than going to shopping malls in this period?
  3. For grandparents, make New Year's crafts - a garland, a Christmas tree toy or an angel.
  4. Home decoration should be festive and cheerful - a lot of garlands, big tree, a lot of themed toys, painting on the windows.
  5. Entrust the children to prepare some dish for the New Year's table.

Table setting is festive and solemn.

Perhaps you will introduce some kind of tradition that will be a joy from year to year, it may be a trip somewhere, or maybe you will collectively cook a New Year's cake according to the same recipe. By the way, the cake is also important in this festival, especially for children. Therefore, if you do not bake it together, take care to buy it in advance or bake it yourself. Next year - fiery rooster, so you can make a cake in the shape of this bird or decorate it with cockerel figurines. And be sure christmas decor- snowball, snowmen, etc.

Games and contests to celebrate the new year

If adults can hold festive table the whole holiday (and even then not always), then this is absolutely not suitable for children. After all, their active nature expects something more noisy and festive. Here it is worth considering the entertainment program of the evening.

You can make the holiday themed - pirate, carnival or masquerade. Have at your fingertips enough New Year's tinsel- serpentine, sparklers, crackers and small gifts to reward winners in competitions. By the way, about competitions and entertainment: If you have the financial ability and a free room, you can buy artificial snow and arrange a snow battle there or a collective snowman sculpting.

Collect the snowflake game

It will be no less interesting to play “Collect a Snowflake” - fix the snowflakes cut in advance on a thread under the ceiling on different height and compete for a while in who cuts or breaks the most snowflakes.

Christmas tree decorating contest

"Decorate the tree." Here you need to prepare a couple of Christmas tree models and appliqués of toys on it, which are attached with double-sided tape. Blindfold the participants and for a while let them hang the toys as beautifully and quickly as possible. Or you can not make toys in advance, but draw them for speed, developing into different teams. Or play for more painted Christmas balls.

fairytale game

"Continue the story." The host will begin to tell a fairy tale, and the participants must come up with a continuation of the story, but not like this in the book, but completely different. For example, so that in the "little red riding hood" the hat, and not the wolf, becomes a bad hero.

New Year's guessing game

"Guess what?". Put an object in a large box, close it. Participants need to guess what is hidden there, with leading questions about the subject.

new year goal

"My goal". After the chimes have sounded, the whole family needs to draw two of their goals that everyone is going to achieve. On the next holiday, you will need to get it and check whether the participants have achieved their goals.

Competition with balls

"Race on the balls." Here to help you, big dense balls, a couple of obstacles in the form of chairs or stools, fun music and big clock with a timer.

Pantomime

"Guess who?" Here you need to show facial expressions or gestures distinctive features behavior of someone from the family, or loved one cartoon character or other characters.

Fireworks

And, of course, fireworks. This will be the culmination of the holiday, after which the children will go to bed satisfied and happy. Do not save on this entertainment, because often cheap fireworks can turn out to be fake, and this is already dangerous. Do not forget about safety measures when launching fireworks.

Handing out New Year's gifts

Of course, you have already bought a gift "from Santa Claus", but this is only half the battle, because you need to give it beautifully. For kids, this will not be too difficult. You will need to discreetly put them under a fluffy Christmas tree or dress up dad in that same grandfather and present gifts to the child. But the older the kids, the faster they understand what's what. This is where professional help comes in handy. Order them to come to your house. Children especially like it when they are not only given a gift, but also laugh and have fun. It will cost you a little more than the usual arrival of Santa Claus, but don't your children's happy eyes deserve it!

Game - search for a gift

It will be very interesting to go in search of gifts, especially if you live in your home. Hide gifts in advance, and go looking for them with a flashlight. Already this trip itself will be joyful for the baby, and when at the end a treasured gift awaits him, even more so. And if you have several older children, draw a map for them and let them search for them using the clues that you leave in right places. Usually such searches are noisy and fun, giving joy to both kids and adults. But do not overdo it and think about the safety of such a trip so as not to end the holiday in the hospital.

New Year's contests

Game - Mandarin

After a new year spent in this way, your children will go to bed happy and contented. And you will be immensely happy for them, and for the fact that you managed to please your loved ones and relatives. With such a plan, you will no longer need to think about how to have fun in the new year at home with your family, but simply bring it to life.

New Year's entertainment for kids



For children, New Year's holidays are often held separately. Under the chiming clock, most often the kids are already sleeping or very naughty. Arrange a children's celebration separately. This can be an event in kindergarten or at home. In addition to treats, consider different entertainment. It will be great if one of the relatives will change into Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. Choose the appropriate musical selection from New Year's and children's songs.

Surprises from the New Year's bag

Table contests



During the celebration of the night of transition to next year guests should not only be deliciously fed, but also interestingly entertained. If the room does not allow for active games, table competitions will come to the rescue. They liberate all those gathered, get to know each other better, and allow them to show creativity.

spell the word

The table competition is suitable for both children and adults. The leader at the table calls any letter of the alphabet, and all guests must name words that begin with this letter, which they can show in the room. For example, many objects can be named with the letter C - a table, chairs, napkins, etc. The last one to name the word wins. If you liked the fun, you can complicate the task by naming some less popular letter. For example, B, F or Y.

Secretary and boss



To play, you need to make small text in several copies. All the participants are divided into pairs. One of the participants in the tandem needs to fill his mouth with nuts, bread or fruit so that it is difficult to speak. This is the "boss". He is given a piece of paper. His partner "secretary" will have to write down the words that the boss dictates to him. The winner is the pair whose version is closest to the original. It is forbidden to show the “secretary” what is written on the sheet to the “boss”.

Find your match

Men and women are randomly labeled with names on their foreheads. It is forbidden to tell each other. The task of each, through questions, is to find out whether he is a couple of the respondent. His interlocutor should answer only "yes" or "no". The result is a very fun idea.
new year in adult company
A feast in an adult company and at parties for young people is often accompanied by drinking. Cool contests with alcohol can be arranged to stir up the guests and make new year's eve cheerful and sociable.

toasts



For fun, only guests, their imagination and good mood are needed. Each person present should take turns saying new year's toast followed by a drink and a snack. It is important that the gaps between the toasts are not small, otherwise all participants will quickly get drunk. The task of the next is to make a speech without repetition.
Poured, drank, ate

New Year's lotteries
In the company of adults, you can hold comic lotteries. For this, various small items with a shocking and comic description. For example, a light bulb can be described as an antique crystal chandelier from the 19th century, regular pen like a Louis XIV feather, an ordinary piece of fabric like Philip Kirkorov's pocket. All small prizes must be hidden in a bag or box.
The lottery itself for the New Year is held in the following sequence:

And then it starts like on the TV program “Field of Miracles”, guests sitting nearby, friends, relatives, etc., shout “... a prize”, and the presenter offers to take the money (only in which case do not say that the money is from a joke store or otherwise the prize will be taken away very quickly and it will not be interesting to play). The task of the presenter is to keep the intrigue and hint that the gift is very chic, but the money has not bothered anyone yet, that you need to take it. The choice of a player can be made in different ways, whether it is a children's rhyme or according to some individual criteria. In order to make it interesting for all guests, so that no one is offended (why they chose this or that player), you can play several prizes like this, but you will have to stock up large sum money (even as mentioned earlier, you can not real money).

All this is desirable to do at a fairly fast pace, without giving breaks. The joke is that the second animal, which the leader says to the players in the ear, is the same for everyone - “KIT”.

In big boots, in a sheepskin coat,
In big mittens ... and himself with a fingernail!

New Year's wall newspaper

A newspaper is hung in a conspicuous place on which, any of the guests,
can write what was good and bad in the past year.

To meet the new year 2014 was fun and interesting, Fairytale house provided for your choice New Year's competitions for the family. New Year in the family circle, warm rainbow atmosphere of the holiday. So begins the New Year 2014 - Horses. The New Year is primarily a family holiday, and it often happens that representatives of several generations gather at the festive table at once. How to make sure that neither grandmothers nor their grandchildren are bored? We are offering to you Christmas competitions for the whole family.

New Year's competitions for the whole family

Calm contests

These competitions are good for a quiet family pastime - a relaxing holiday in the circle of close people. They do not require special physical training, so both old and young can play them. But during these competitions you can have fun and, perhaps, your relatives will open up to you from a new side.

new year wishes

Sit in a circle. It is best to “mix” family members so that parents and children, grandmothers and grandchildren are nearby. Each player must take turns wishing something to the relative who sits to his right. Very important point- to wish what this person really needs. For example, if a brother is studying at senior class, you can wish him to successfully pass the exams. If her career is important to the mother, the daughter may wish her to get a promotion. It is very important that the wishes are specific. The one that thinks is out of the game. This contest is great way check how well you know your family and friends.

Pass the rhythm

For this game, you also need to sit in a circle. Each player places his right hand on the left knee of the neighbor on the right, and his left hand on the right knee of the neighbor on the left. The one who starts the game beats a certain rhythm with one hand on the knee of one of the neighbors. The neighbor must pass this rhythm further around the circle, in turn beating it on his neighbor's knee. And so it is repeated until the rhythm goes around the whole circle and returns to the one who asked it. Then you can go to reverse side. Believe me, as long as you manage to convey the rhythm without errors, you will laugh heartily!

Guess the person

Divide into two teams. The first team summons a representative of the opposing team and makes him one of the relatives (you can agree in advance to make only those who are present or vice versa - only absent relatives). The player's task is to show this relative without words, using only facial expressions and gestures, to his team, and the team's task is to guess him. Then the teams switch roles. The team that guesses correctly wins this contest. the largest number relatives in the shortest time.

Competition "New Year 2013"
The essence of the competition is to write as many words on the theme "New Year" as possible in a certain time. Usually it takes from 30 to 60 seconds. Words must be in the nominative case and singular. The one who writes the most words wins.

mobile contests

For some competitions, you need to split into pairs or teams. How to do it is up to you. You can mix different generations, you can compete "adults against children." But in any case, the forces should be approximately equal. Perhaps someone will have to succumb - and not the fact that it will be the parents!

pregnant dads

This competition is for the courageous half of the family. Let them feel what their spouses had during pregnancy! Each player of the stronger sex is tied to his stomach with inflated balloons with adhesive tape and a box of matches is scattered on the floor in front of him. The task of the participants is to collect all the matches from the floor as quickly as possible at the signal. The one whose stomach burst is out of the game. You can't pop your opponent's balloons! The winner is the one who collected matches the fastest, while remaining with a "belly".

Harmful ponytail

The participants of the game line up in a chain-train, holding on to the waist in front of the one standing, and squat together in unison. The host says that from now on they are one big caterpillar. He asks to show them how the caterpillar performs different actions: sleeps, wakes up, stretches, washes, does morning exercises, has breakfast, walks, dances, etc. The task of the players is to follow the instructions of the leader as smoothly as possible. There is just one caveat: the “tail” of the caterpillar ( last man in the column) is constantly harmful and interferes with the caterpillar. Usually the ponytail becomes the most youngest child, but who knows - suddenly a great ponytail will also turn out from a grandmother?

draw

Players are divided into pairs. In each pair, participants must be of different sexes (brother and sister, mom and dad, etc.). A piece of paper with a cut hole for the head is put on the neck of each participant. All players receive a marker. Their task is to draw arms and legs on their paper at the signal of the presenter. And women draw male legs and hands, and the man - women's. It turns out to be very difficult to do this, but this process looks very funny from the outside!

Game-competition "Get to the gift"

You can hold a game-competition "Get to the gift", after which everyone will definitely be with gifts. To do this, you must first stretch the rope and hang various small prizes on the threads. The participant is blindfolded, twisted around a couple of times. He needs to find a gift for himself, and then they give him scissors to cut this gift. This is not only fun, but also develops the vestibular apparatus. This competition has always amused me. It is funny to look at a person who, lost in space, circled in search of a gift.

Competition "Catch the snow"

Here you can litter a little, and at the same time get rid of unnecessary paper. Two teams are participating. Paper snowballs are distributed to participants (and the same number). One of the team members has an empty bag in his hands. On a signal, everyone starts throwing their lumps into the bag, and the partners try to catch them. The team with the most snowballs in the bag wins.

Fanta game

Of course, do not forget about the old good game"Fantas". The essence of the game is to correctly and funny fulfill the wishes of the presenter. At the beginning of the game, participants give away one or several (if there are few) forfeits. Then the facilitator turns his back to the participants, and the other participant pulls out the forfeits in turn and asks the facilitator: “What should this phantom do?”. The leader comes up with some original task. The owner of this fanta must fulfill it. Such a game is very fun, and even the most unpretentious tasks - "Crow 3 times" turn out to be very interesting and fun.

FAMILY NEW YEAR IDEAS

Dikmi: First of all, it is necessary to develop a concept family holiday. Think about what you would most like to do on this fateful night? Here are some examples:

1. Prepare something new for the table

For example, something that has never been tried before. Make cheese fondue or chocolate-covered tangerine slices. A family dinner can be accompanied by a good European tradition. In the West, they say that if on New Year's Eve you suddenly miss your piece of bread in a saucepan with cheese, you should definitely kiss the person who is sitting on the left as soon as possible. It will bring you both happiness!

2. Host a tasting

Appoint a house sommelier, draw a wine list, play restaurant and wine tasting. Complement the wines with cheese, crackers and fruit. If wine is not your forte, you can do the same with cheese, coffee, chocolate, beer, finally. Children can also get actively involved in this game! Food or drinks from different countries will help to add a special charm to the theme.

3. Organize a home picnic

Drag all the blankets and pillows into the living room and set up camp! Remember how you went camping in 5th grade? Watch your favorite Christmas movies, play Board games, and allow the children to try something that was previously forbidden in your family: fast food, carbonated colored drinks, etc.

4. Celebrate the New Year in the style of another country

Are your kids too young to wait until midnight for the New Year? Find a country that has a tradition of celebrating the arrival of the New Year early. Solemnly beat the moment of the countdown, and at twelve strokes offer them a fizzy cider, or colorful juice. For example, following Greek tradition, you can cut the Vasilopita New Year's cake at midnight. When this cake is baked, they hide a coin inside. And the one who gets a piece with a coin will definitely be happy in the New Year! This coin will bring him fabulous luck! In the same way, you can check the action Spanish traditions, eat Japanese sushi and play Chinese tea ceremony.

5. Invite a family friend

One, the very best. Or family. Those people with whom you can not stand on ceremony, who love you not for Tasty food and a clean apartment, but simply because you are in this world. Those people with whom the topics of conversation do not end and for sure you will have the most amazing New Year! Those with whom it is pleasant to dance and joke, arrange masquerades and play cards. It is very nice if your children are also friends. Then on New Year's Eve it will be good for everyone. You can also play the game with close friends: “What would I change in the past year?”. Write about mistakes and regrets on pieces of paper, and then burn them! And now, already on other leaves, write the answers to the question: “My great hopes for the New Year.” Save these leaves until the next New Year's holiday.

6. Turn your Christmas tree into a "Tree of Destiny"

Instead of (or together with) New Year's toys hang notes on the tree with predictions for the next year. Promise each other Good work, love, apartment and cottage, mutual understanding, high marks at school, winning a boxing tournament, whatever! Everything you dream of and strive for! And at midnight, take off one of the notes and read yours. New Year's prediction. Will it come true? You have a great opportunity to check it out!

7. Host a tournament

Monopoly or cards, loto or bingo - every family has their favorite games. Arrange a battle on New Year's Eve! After all, usually, on weekdays, there is not enough time for such things!
