16 games for New Year's matinees

I know that teachers always have difficulty with games when writing scripts. My games have been played for many years. Children really like them, and if Grandfather also plays Frost and other characters, then a complete delight!

NEW YEAR AUCTION

Players take turns listing everything that happens in the New year: grandfather Freezing, Snow Maiden, Christmas tree, gifts, Christmas decorations, needles on the floor, snow, lanterns, etc.

The one who runs out of ideas is out of the game. The most resourceful wins.

THE MOST SKILLEST

Grandfather Frost and Snow Maiden(or other characters according to the script) hold in hand a hoop entwined with Christmas tinsel. Cotton balls are poured on the floor ( "snowballs"). Children, on the command of the heroes, throw lumps into the hoops, then the number of hits in the hoop is counted Santa Claus and into the hoop of the Snow Maiden.

DRESS THE CHRISTMAS

In front of the main Christmas tree, two small Christmas trees and two boxes with unbreakable New Year's toys. Three people are called to each Christmas tree. On command Santa Claus children dress them up. Whoever quickly and accurately decorates his Christmas tree with all the toys from the box wins.

It is good to play the game with cheerful rhythmic music. Children stand in a circle. Grandfather Freezing or the leader of the holiday starts the game, shifting the hat from his head to the head of a nearby child, he, in turn, shifts the hat from his head to the head of a neighbor, and so on in a circle. On command Santa Claus(clap, whistle, staff strike) the movement stops, and the one on whom the hat is left at that moment must dance, sing or tell a winter poem, proverb, guess a riddle.

At the same time, the players are not informed to what place Grandfather has already been drawn Freezing. So, it may turn out that he will have two beards or a whole pyramid of gift bags.

SNOWFALL REVERSED

Each child is given "snowball" (on a small cotton ball). At the signal of Winter or the leader, children loosen their lumps, launch them into the air (tossing up) and begin to blow on them from below, so that they stay in the air as long as possible and do not fall to the floor. The smartest one wins.

CHOOSE WHAT YOU LIKE

Children choose gifts from the bag by touch Santa Claus describing in detail what it is and what it is. And you can hide the gifts in boxes of different sizes so that the children dream up what can be in the box (it will be even more interesting if the smallest gift is in the largest box).

BAG OF SURPRISES

Two kids compete (in order). The first is blindfolded and given a small bag containing various toys. (cubes, balls, nesting dolls, cars, etc.). A task: take objects out of the bag and identify them by touch. The player must answer what kind of thing he got. Then the toys change and the game is repeated with the second participant. Of the two, the one who guesses correctly wins. largest number toys.

NEW YEAR'S CONCERT

MUSIC CAROUSEL

Chairs are placed in a circle (they are 1 less than the players). Among the playing grandfather Frost or Snowman. Music sounds, all participants in the game begin to run around the chairs. As soon as the music stops, all the children quickly try to take their places. The adult hero plays at half strength (yielding, pretending that he does not have time to sit on a chair all the time. Since all the places are occupied by children, he will have to dance for everyone or give out gifts.

Happy child 27.11.2016

Dear readers, very soon the New Year and happy holidays. I encourage you to prepare ahead of time! Today on the blog we have made for you a selection of New Year's games for children. What to play with the whole family? What to do with kids different ages? How to properly organize the play space? What are the secrets in this matter? We will try to find answers to these and other questions in the article.

With my thoughts and ideas for games on New Year for children, Anna Kutyavina, the leading heading, will share. I give her the floor.

Hello dear readers of Irina's blog! Can you smell the frosty air outside the window? Snow, a Christmas tree, tangerines… Although according to the calendar there is still a whole month before the most anticipated holiday of the year, many of us already have an expectation of a miracle in our hearts. Indeed, on New Year's Eve, not only our children, but we ourselves often make the most cherished wishes, sincerely believing that they will certainly come true! And from January 1, like in a fairy tale, a new life will begin ...

So, let's start and we are preparing for the festive fun? In order not to hatch later last hours December on the Internet, in a frantic search for new ideas for games, let's make important steps for a joyful new year right now. As long as there is time, strength, energy and desire. And also - there are a lot of delicious and non-standard ideas for fun! Go?

For your convenience, we have divided all games into age categories. So it will be easier for you to navigate and choose what is best for the child. There are games near the Christmas tree, games with rhymes, New Year's music games. separate category there are games for the whole family - a creative space in which there is a place for everyone: moms and dads, grandparents, aunts and uncles and kids!

New Year's games for children under 2 years old

Let's start the consideration of fun with the smallest heroes of the holiday. Usually, children begin to actively engage in simple games from 1.5-2 years old. For even younger toddlers, we offer only the simplest: round dances around the Christmas tree in the arms of mom; funny rhymes and songs with parents. Remember that babies should never be overloaded with emotions, including positive ones! "Herringbone" for such children lasts no more than half an hour, and we certainly look at the condition of the child. If he is tired, give him time to rest.

It's great if moms love to sing, compose poems and fairy tales. It's time to fantasize and gradually include the crumbs in the creative process. The main thing is the emotional involvement of parents, the desire to play and create. Even with yearlings, you can do small crafts together, glue New Year's toy- boots from two cardboard parts, and then paint with colored sparkles. The baby just sits in the arms of the mother, and the mother does everything herself using the “hand in hand” method. Then the toy is solemnly hung on the Christmas tree, and each guest is told who made such beauty. And everyone is happy and satisfied.

It is good for kids to include short New Year's songs, under which you can clap your hands, stomp your feet, twist your booty. First of all, remember safety precautions: if there is a toddler in the house, the Christmas tree should not stand on the floor, especially hung with glass toys and garlands with lights.

New Year's games and competitions for children from 2 to 6 years old

Now let's move on to the most "grateful" age. Preschoolers are very fond of games and fun, they are active and sociable. We present to your attention a selection of games for preschoolers:

Game "Guess the gift"

Put a lot of different items and toys in a large bag. Invite the child to feel to determine what came into his hand. If the child guesses the name of the object, he receives a gift.

Game "Owl and animals"

One driver is chosen - "owl". The rest of the children show various animals: birds, mice, butterflies, frogs, bunnies, etc.
The driver gives the command: "Day!" - and all the "animals" run and jump merrily. On the second command: "Night!" Everyone freezes and doesn't move. The owl flies to "hunt". Anyone who laughs, moves, changes position, becomes the prey of an owl.

The game "It's boring to sit like this ..."

We seat the kids on chairs near one wall. The facilitator reads the verse:

It's boring, it's boring to sit like this,
Look at each other.
Isn't it time to run
And change places?

On these words, the children quickly run to opposite wall trying to take empty chairs. There are one fewer chairs than players. The one left without a chair is out of the game. The chairs are also removed one by one. The game is repeated until the winner takes the last chair.

Game "Fox and Hares"

Children move according to the instructions in the text:

On the forest lawn
Bunnies ran away.
Here are some bunnies
Runaway bunnies.
(Baby bunnies run around the hall)
The bunnies sat in a circle
They dig a spine with a paw.
Here are some bunnies
Runaway bunnies.
("Bunnies" sit down, "dig" roots)
Here is a fox running
Red sister.
Looking for where the bunnies are
Runaway bunnies.

(The fox runs between the kids. When the song ends, he catches up with the kids).

Game "Winter mood"

The host reads the poems, and the children answer: “true”, “false”.

1. Bloomed in the cold
There are big roses on the pine tree.
They are collected in bouquets
And the Snow Maiden is handed over. (Wrong)

2. With the Snow Maiden Snowman
Get used to the kids.
He loves to listen to poetry
And then eat candy. (Right)

3. Santa Claus melts in winter
And under the Christmas tree is bored -
A puddle was left of him;
On a holiday, it is not needed at all. (Wrong)

4. In February, on New Year's Eve
Good Grandpa is coming
He has a big bag
All filled with noodles. (Wrong)

5. Toadstools do not grow in winter,
But they are sledding.

8. In January, blizzards sweep,
Spruce dressed with snow.

Boldly galloping through the woods. (Right)

Relay game "Fish"

The leader divides the children into 2 teams. Each team receives a small fishing rod with a hook.

Near each team lies a large blue hoop - a "pond". In the pond, toy fish with eyelets at the mouth, according to the number of participants. To rhythmic music, the captains go to the pond, hook the fish with a fishing rod, put it in the buckets of their teams. Then the rod is passed to the next participant. The winner is the team that finished fishing first.

And what is a holiday without music. Pick it up in advance, music always creates a festive atmosphere. And children always like such musical games.

The game "Round dance around the Christmas tree"

The easiest and favorite fun for kids! Turn on a fun song: "It's cold for a little Christmas tree in winter" or "A Christmas tree was born in the forest," and go!

The game "Snowball in a spoon"

2 players participate at the same time. They are given a spoon in their mouth, in a spoon - a cotton snowball. At the signal, the children run to different sides around the tree. The winner is the one who runs first, and whose snowball remains in the spoon.

The game "Around the Christmas tree in bags"

2 kids play at the same time. They stand with their feet in the bags, supporting the top of the bags with their hands. On a signal, the players scatter in different directions around the Christmas tree. The fastest one wins. Then the next pair plays.

The game "We are funny kittens"

The leader puts on cheerful music. Children break into pairs and dance.
The host says: “We are funny kittens,” and the couples are separated. Each shows a dancing kitten.

It is also very good to offer children various winter puzzles. Children are happy to tell poems and sing songs to Grandfather Frost. And they love to receive gifts.

Let's watch a video of how Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden play various interesting games with children! There are a lot of ideas here.

Games for children 6-10 years old

Children of this age can be offered a wide variety of New Year's games, including musical games, dances, relay races, riddles. Good "goes" and various manufacture crafts, Christmas decorations. Fantasize and get involved!

Game "Christmas Castle"

Several people are playing. First, they are invited to carefully study the drawn drawing of the New Year's castle. Then everyone gets a set of plastic cups. The players are blindfolded. They get to work.

The participant who most accurately and quickly reproduced the drawing wins the competition.

Game "Tangerine Football"

Children are divided into 2 teams. Tangerines are laid out on the table. Players using two fingers try to score a goal for the opposing team.

The game "The most accurate snow shooter"

Participants try to hit the target with snowballs - a target, or a bucket, a basket, a large box. The most accurate shooter wins the competition.

Game "Winter Wind"

Players sit down at the table and try to blow a paper ball, cotton ball or paper snowflake onto the floor.

Games near the Christmas tree and musical games

Game "Decorate the Christmas Tree"

Children are divided into 2 teams. Near each of them, the presenter puts a box with unbreakable Christmas toys.

Not far from the teams there are two decorated artificial Christmas trees. Children take turns taking one toy from the box, run to the Christmas tree of their team, hang a toy on it and run back. The game continues until the last player. The team that decorates the Christmas tree first wins.

Game "Cap"

Children become in a circle. Cheerful music is on. Players begin to pass the New Year's hat in a circle. When the music stops, the one with the hat left in his hands puts it on his head and completes the task of Santa Claus.

family games

When for festive table a big family is gathering, it's time to play fun family New Year games. They are great at bringing representatives together. different generations, and the connection between close people becomes even closer and deeper. Also, such games can be offered to companies of teenagers and adults.

The game "Make a snowman"

For the game you need softened plasticine. Two players sit side by side at a table. Left hand of one participant and right hand others work like the hands of one person, sculpting a snowman. It is not simple! But very unifying! It's great if there are children and adults in each pair.

The game "Shoe for Cinderella"

All participants in the game put their shoes in a pile. The players are blindfolded. The host shuffles the shoes into a pile and commands: “Come on, find your shoe!”. Each participant, blindfolded, looks for his pair of shoes and puts on shoes. Whoever completes the task first is the winner.

Game "Cinderella"

Two participants are required. Everyone is blindfolded and told to take apart their slide. Peas, beans, nuts, dried mountain ash, and other ingredients are mixed in the slides. Blindfolded participants sort fruits into groups.

Game "Snow Challenge"

You need to take a small ball, or make a "snow" ball of cotton. The participants of the game become in a circle. "Snowball" is passed in a circle.

The leader says:

Snowball we all roll,
We all count to five.
One, two, three, four, five -
You sing a song!

Whoever has a “snowball” in his hands on the last phrase, he fulfills this wish. The last phrase changes: “You dance to dance!”, “And you read poetry!”, “Tell you a fairy tale!” and so on.

And here is another very interesting game for the whole family for the New Year. I suggest watching the video.

New Year's karaoke

How is the new year without songs? Pick up a list of “cons” in advance, such as:

- "The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree",
- "Three white horse»,
- "The ceiling is icy, the door is creaky",
- "The little Christmas tree is cold in winter,"
- "Five minutes",
- "Blue frost",
- "Song about bears", etc.
Turn on and have fun singing with the whole family!

Game-dance "Engine"

Adults and children stand in a column, put their hands on the waist of the previous dancer. And the locomotive is moving!

Our games are suitable for organizing a fun space at home, as well as in the conditions of matinees and corporate parties. Some of them can even be played outside.

Friends, I sincerely hope that you enjoy our New Year's games and competitions for kids, and you will certainly find something for yourself! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

GAME "GOOD MAN, HAMMER, MILK"

Children form a circle. The leader is in the middle of the circle. He mixed (out of order) calls the words “well done”, “hammer”, “milk”, after which the players perform the following movements: - “well done” - bounce on the spot 1 time; - "hammer" - clap your hands 1 time; - “milk” - they say “meow”. The host draws out the first syllables of words to confuse the participants in the game (“mo-lo-o-dets”). The game from a slow pace takes on an accelerated character. Those who are inattentive remain in their playing places, and those who perform movements in accordance with the words without error take a step forward. Thus, the winners are the participants in the game who have reached the leader faster than the others.

ASSOCIATIONS

Let the guys take turns listing everything that happens in the New Year: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, snow, gifts, Christmas tree, Christmas decorations, cake, needles, on the floor, lanterns, and more. The one who runs out of ideas is out of the game, and the most persistent wins.

The child carefully looks at the Christmas tree for a minute (or another set time), and then turns away and lists in as much detail as possible what hangs on it. The one who remembers the most wins.

GAME "WHO'S FORWARD?"

On the back of two chairs hangs a winter jacket with turned-out sleeves, and on the seats lies a fur hat, a scarf and a pair of mittens. To cheerful music, 2 players turn the sleeves of their jackets inside out, then put them on, and then put on a hat, scarf and mittens. The prize is given to the one who first takes a place in his chair and shouts "Happy New Year!".

WHAT CHANGED?

This game requires good visual memory. Participants are offered a task in turn: for a minute, examine the toys hanging on one or two branches of the Christmas tree and remember them. Then you need to leave the room - at this time, several toys (three or four) will outweigh: some will be removed, others will be added. Entering the room, you need to examine your branches and say what has changed. Depending on age, you can complicate and simplify tasks.

GAME "DONT MISS"

Children form 2 teams. At a certain distance from each team there are small gates. Near the teams, the host puts a smart box with ping-pong balls according to the number of participants. To the cheerful music, the first players take a ball from the box and roll it from a place, trying to get into the gate, after which they take a place at the end of the team. The second participants enter the game, etc. The team that ends up in the goal wins the largest number balls.

WHO IS NICE?

To play, you will need two large reels (perhaps made by yourself), two round sticks are also suitable, as well as a rope 6-8 m long, the middle of which is marked with a ribbon.

Two players take the coils and diverge from each other, as far as the rope allows. On a signal, each of them begins to quickly rotate the coil in his hands and, winding the rope around it, moves forward. The winner is the one who winds the rope to the middle first.

GAME "SIGNAL"

The players stand in a circle; 3-4 steps from him is the leader. He gives one whistle, then two. At one whistle, all participants in the game must quickly raise their right hand up and immediately lower it; You can't raise your hand on two whistles. The one who makes a mistake takes a step forward and continues to play along with the rest. Those who make the fewest mistakes are considered the winners.

"Christmas tree game"

In front of two players, the facilitator places a prize wrapped in bright wrapping paper on a chair and says the following text:
AT new year's hour, friends, Without attention it is impossible! Do not miss the number "three" - Take the prize, do not yawn!
“The Christmas tree met the guests. Five children came first, In order not to be bored on a holiday, They began to count everything on it: Two snowflakes, six crackers, Eight gnomes and parsley, Seven gilded nuts Among twisted tinsel; We counted ten cones, And then we got tired of counting. Three girls came running ... "
If the players missed the prize, the presenter takes it and says: “Where were your ears?”; if one of the players is more attentive, then the host concludes: “Here are attentive ears!”.

GAME "SNOWFLOWS"

Two children are playing. Snowballs from cotton wool are scattered on the floor. The children are blindfolded and given a basket each. On a signal, they begin to collect snowballs. The one with the most snowballs wins.

The first team to decorate the Christmas tree wins.

AUCTION

Santa Claus says:
- There is a wonderful Christmas tree in our hall. And what toys on it! What do you know about Christmas decorations? This magnificent prize will be given to the person with the last answer. Players take turns saying words. During pauses, the host begins to slowly count: “Clapperboard - one, cracker - two ...” The auction continues.

Each participant in turn receives a card with a certain phrase, which will need to be depicted so that the rest can guess what exactly the participant showed.

What is he, this Santa Claus?

Elimination game. All participants stand in a circle. And, starting with any (which will be considered the first after), the guys name one laudatory word for Santa Claus. So, what is he, our Santa Claus? Kind, magical, cheerful, beautiful, wise, sincere, generous, strong, good, bearded, mysterious, unusual, and so on. Let the children show their imagination and tell everyone how they see a good wizard. Whoever doesn't call is out. And a few guys who stay in the game until the end will receive the titles of winners and prizes.

And New Year's is not New Year's

Children sit or stand in a circle. Santa Claus or the presenter announces that now is the time to remember all the necessary things and objects that are elements of the holiday. In a circle, each of the participants in turn names one subject. For example, a clock, a TV, a Christmas tree, a garland, Santa Claus, snow, a gift, and so on. The participant who cannot name the item is out. The one who has the last word wins.

Smart Answer

The host asks questions that relate to New Year's heroes and school subjects at the same time, and the children answer, and the smarter and more interesting the answer, the better. For example: how is the snowman related to geometry? (it consists of balls). How is Santa Claus related to geography? (he flies all over the world and delivers gifts to children at every point, so he must know geography on a solid 5). How is the Snow Maiden related to the Russian language? (she signs Greeting Cards for children and should do it correctly). The more interesting the participant answers such questions, the more chances he has to become a winner.

Secret for Santa Claus

The guys are divided into teams of about 10 people. Each team stands in a row, one after the other. The first participants receive a sheet - a letter, the information of which must be transferred to Santa Claus, for example, on December 31 in the evening, hares and squirrels, deer and wolves, children and adults are waiting for you at the Christmas tree! On the “start” command, the first participants transmit information, as they remember to the second participant, in the ear, trying to do it quickly and not loudly so that the rivals do not hear and so on in the chain. The team that is faster than the rest and, most importantly, correctly conveys information to Santa Claus (that is, the last participant must say the original text of the letter) will win.

Happy New Year

The guys are divided into teams of 11 people, each participant is given a felt-tip pen or marker. For each team, easels with drawing paper are located at the same distance. Each participant must jump in the bag like a wolf in the cartoon "Just you wait!" to the easel and write by letter so that the phrase “Happy New Year” is obtained at the end. So, on the “start” command, the first participants jump in the bag to the easel and write on the letter “C”, then jump back and pass the baton to the second participants, the second write the letter “H”, the third - “O” and so on. The team that finishes the relay faster and writes "Happy New Year" will win.

When it's cold outside

The guys are divided into teams of 5 people. Each participant must wear mittens. Each team receives the same puzzle sets (preferably with a New Year theme) for a small number of parts. At the “start” command, the teams begin to fold the puzzle in mittens. The team that completes the fastest will win and receive a prize.

Cap

Children stand in a circle, and to the music they begin to pass the New Year's hat around in a circle. When the music stops, the participant who has the cap left in his hands puts it on his head and performs the task of Santa Claus. Usually, children prepare poems or songs for Grandfather in advance, so overlays are excluded here.

Pluck all the needles from the tree

Two participants who are blindfolded stand in a circle of fans. 10 clothespins are attached to the clothes of the participants. At the command of the leader, the guys should help each other to get rid of the clothespins and as quickly as possible. Everyone takes turns participating, while the clothespins are hooked to different places each time.

new year on one leg

All children stand by the Christmas tree and, at the command of the host, take the “stand on one leg” position. A New Year's cheerful song is turned on and the guys start jumping - dancing on one leg without changing it. Whoever gives up is out, and whoever survives until the end of the song wins.
