The buyer approaches the seller and asks: “Are there any chickens for sale?” - “How not to be, there is.” - “Can I take a look?” - "Please". The buyer comes behind the chickens and touches them one by one: “I don’t like this one, he’s too old,” “This one is wiry,” “This one is skinny,” etc. And finally, touching the selected chicken, he says: “I’ll buy this one.” The seller and buyer lift the chicken by both elbows into the air, swing it and say: “You are a good chicken. Don’t unclasp your arms and don’t laugh.” If the chosen chicken starts to smile or laugh or opens his arms, he is eliminated from the game.

Shot Put Competition

For each coin that lands in the cup, the team is awarded one point. The team that scores wins greatest number points.

The participants of the game are divided into two teams. One person from each team stands at a distance of three steps from the ball lying in the middle. The task of one of the players is to approach the ball, grab it and take it to him, the task of the other is to protect the ball.
Rules of the game: The one who approaches the ball must make various movements around it: crouch, turn his back to the ball, even move away from it. And the defender must, like a mirror, repeat everything that the enemy does, and at the same time be on alert. He can also bully his opponent before he takes one step away from the ball. All pairs play in turns, the players of the first team “take” the ball, the players of the second team defend it. In the second round, the teams switch roles. The one with the most points wins.

At first the footsteps were quiet but gradually became louder and louder. (You know how to do this). I turned around and saw a huge bear. I froze in fear, and then thunder struck.

Turn on the microphone and get down to business.

Transformations

Everything and everyone turns into something else, but not with the help of words, but with the help of determining the appropriateness of actions. The room turns into a forest.

The difficulty of the task is that the pace of change of musicians is constantly increasing, the conductor points first to one group, then to the other, and if the conductor waves both hands, then the musicians must “play” all together. You can make the task more difficult: if the conductor waves his hand strongly, then the musicians must “play” loudly, and if he waves his hand a little, then the musicians “play” quietly.

On each of the chairs, standing at a distance of 8-10 steps from each other, there is a bell. Two players, blindfolded, each stand at their own chair. At the signal, they need to go around their friend’s chair to the right, return to their place and ring the bell. The one who does it faster wins.

By a thread

On the ground, with a sharp stick, several (according to the number of participants in the game) parallel straight lines are drawn, marking the distance (50-60 meters). Start! Everyone is running a race - it is important not only to come first, but also to run the distance “like on a thread” - so that the tracks always fall on the drawn straight line. By the way, this will be easier for those who run with their knees raised high rather than dragging their feet. Children's competitions and games.

Chairs

Competitions for children's parties

Birthdays happen only once a year and this holiday should definitely be remembered by the birthday person. Festive decoration the hall, invited guests, refreshments are of great importance, but the whole atmosphere of the event depends on the chosen competitive program. Prepare interesting and fun competitions for children should be done in advance so that the celebration takes place at the highest level.

Rules

1. The conditions for entertainment should be simple and understandable to the birthday boy and his guests.
2. If the birthday is held in the style of a pirate party, then competitions are about Winnie the Pooh will be inappropriate - choose fun that matches the theme of the holiday.
3. Competitions should be varied and replace each other as soon as at least one participant gets bored.
   The main requirement for holiday fun is that there should be enough attention for absolutely everyone!

The older a child gets, the more difficult it is to surprise him with something. This also applies to the birthday program. A nine-year-old child will not be happy with activities for children; entertainment must be carefully thought out and appropriate for the age category.

Criteria for selecting competitions

For a children's audience, it does not matter how much time was spent on preliminary preparation. The main thing is that the game should not be boring. Competition program should be compiled taking into account several factors:

• temperament of children's company;
• age of invited guests;
• room area;
• complexity of the props;
• safety for children's health.

The age of the children invited to the holiday depends on how physically and mentally developed they are. This criterion determines which competitions will be appropriate at the holiday. There are games that will be incomprehensible to very young children or uninteresting to older children.
A birthday party in an ordinary apartment slightly limits the possibilities due to the small area of ​​the room. If possible, allocate the most spacious room for games for one evening, remove chairs, armchairs, and small interior details to another room.
For competitions, you should not choose too complex decorations and props. For a friendly group, you can pick up holiday accessories in any store or make them yourself from improvised materials. It is not necessary to buy something expensive, the main purpose of the props is to complement festive atmosphere, and not become the “star” of the evening.
All entertainment should be as safe as possible and not harm the health of the birthday boy and his guests. It is worth refusing to use low-quality pyrotechnics and dangerous chemicals if you do not have the ability to handle them.

Types of competitions

An entertainment program cannot take place on the same emotional level, therefore, in order for the holiday to be a success, competitions should be divided into conditional categories.

1. Active competitions.
   These include relay races, catch-up races, speed and agility competitions. This category of entertainment is offered to guests at the very beginning of the holiday, when everyone wants to have fun and move. In a large room there will be no problems with choosing outdoor activities, but in a small room you will have to think about the options. A game of children's bowling or ring throwing would be appropriate here.
   Team games should make up at least 50% of the entire holiday so that all children can take part in the fun. This great opportunity to unite the children's team and immerse them in gaming reality.
2. Musical and dance.
   A competition for the best karaoke song or a dance competition will entertain the birthday boy and guests. Children will be pleased to feel like a pop or dance floor star. The participation of adults is required, who will suggest the words to funny songs.
3. Joke and association competitions.
   Question-answer game, riddles, interactive games- quiet entertainment will bring no less pleasure than active entertainment. The guys will be able to show off their knowledge and win in team competitions, thanks to their ingenuity and intelligence.
4. Creative competitions.
   You will rarely meet a child who does not like to draw or make crafts from plasticine. Not a single child invited to the holiday will refuse to participate in the competition for the best drawing or origami.

Prizes for competitions

Prizes for competitions require special attention. On children's party no one should be left without a gift, even a symbolic one. Candies, small figures cartoon characters, medals and certificates - for a child it doesn’t matter what exactly his small victory will be marked with. Encouragement makes participating in competitions even more fun. Children awaken to immediate excitement; they want to show their best side and take part in all the games.
The main thing is that there are enough incentive prizes for everyone, then the great mood will remain until the end of the festive event.
