"Live Quest" task

Presenter: So, children, you need to say the Magic words in chorus so that “Real Magic” will happen for us on New Year’s Day. At this moment you will think of your “Greatest Wish”. Wishes have always been made in New Year's Eve. Now let's find out what these Magic words are that we all need to say together. Inhale, exhale, do you feel filled with Magic? And now - let's get down to business.

Each child (or several children who will guess one letter) is given a piece of paper with a riddle in which they need to guess the letter (riddles from the Internet). There are letters on the table, and on the back of the sheet with the letter, its serial number in the sentence “Under the magical chiming of the clock, the New Year has come with goodness.” A child (or several children), having guessed their letter, finds it on the table. Children need to guess to arrange the letters in accordance with the serial number and get a “magic” sentence:

THE MAGICAL BATTLE OF THE HOUR THE NEW YEAR HAS COME TO US ALL

If there are few children, then the phrase can be shortened. Some letters will be repeated, that is, some children will guess one letter, but their serial numbers will be different.

Options for holding a New Year's children's party with competitions

The last 3 competitions in our proposed scenario are assumed to be 3 common final games for all children. It is understood that the results of the competition of 2 teams are summed up before them and the winning team is announced, and then there are 3 general competitions.

If you want to make all games competitive, you can do this:

  • competition where there is a general creative work to create a collage, make it a job for each team, i.e. each team is given the task of making their own New Year's collage, and then the jury determines the winner. You can have each child make a collage on a separate piece of paper, and then glue all the pieces of paper onto a common stand for each team.
  • And do the last competition like this. Give this task separately for each team, i.e. find the Magic Words for the Magic Wand. Each team has a set of letters from this phrase on its table. The team that completes these letters the fastest will win. (i.e. general work divided into team work).
  • As for the game about Sunny and Frost, it can be replaced with the competition “Find your pair, little glove.” Children bring their own gloves and each team puts these gloves in their bag. The presenter gives each child 2 different gloves (any). When gloves for 2 teams are distributed, the task sounds: “Find your pair and join hands!” The winner is the team that is the first to create its “Pair of Gloves” circle.

What Magic will the Magic Wand do?

Presenter: Someone won today, someone lost, yes, this happens in life. The main thing here is that you and I did everything so well: all our competitions turned out wonderful, you are all so cheerful and talented. We didn’t let the Snowflake melt and now it’s going to snow, most likely the real Blizzard Lady will come to us for the holiday, we fed the fire-breathing Dragon, so you don’t have to worry that the fragile Snow Maiden will melt, we made a Winter collage with our own hands, and found the key phrase for our New Year's holiday.

Children are given a piece of cotton wool, they must tear it into pieces and create a Blizzard. Fallen pieces of cotton wool can be collected and thrown up again. It is possible for a woman to come, personifying the Lady Blizzard.

Presenter: And now, children, the most important point: I am holding in my hands the Magic Wand, which you imbued with Magic, passing it along the relay race. Now we will say the Magic Words, wave the Magic Wand, and... create Magic. And the New Year will bring us joy, happiness and... fulfill the innermost desire of every child present here. Five minutes for you to think of a wish, and now, pay attention, we all say in chorus the words that you guessed: “Under the magical chiming of the clock, the New Year has come to us all,” I wave my Wand, and everyone clearly pronounces their wish to themselves! (snow can be made after this point)

Snowball
Redemption of New Year's prizes from Santa Claus's bag can be arranged as follows.

“Kom” is passed on and Santa Claus says:
We're all rolling a snowball,
We all count to five -
One two three four five -
Sing a song for you.
Or:
And read poetry for you.
Or:
You should dance a dance.
Or:
Let me tell you a riddle...
The person who redeems the prize leaves the circle, and the game continues.

Mousetrap
The two tallest participants or two adults stand and join hands. They hold their hands up (like a mini round dance) and say:
“We’re so tired of the mice, they gnawed everything, ate everything. Let’s set up a mousetrap and catch all the mice.”
The remaining participants - mice - run between the hands of the catchers. At the last words, hands give up, the “mousetrap” slams shut, and whoever is caught joins the catchers. The mousetrap gets bigger and the game repeats. The last mouse wins.

We answer in chorus
A game of attentiveness. We answer yes or no. It turns out pretty funny.

On my glass...

And covered herself with a blanket,

And he’s unlikely to be able to open up,

If the sun doesn't help.

But when spring comes,

The blanket will disappear.

Don't suck, you brats,

Ice lollipops!

Upon entering the room, you need to look at your branches and say what has changed. Depending on age, you can make the tasks more difficult or easier.

GAME "DO NOT MISS"

I decided to post these competitions on my page, maybe someone will need it and it will be interesting.

Harvesting

The task of the players of each team is to move the oranges to a certain place as quickly as possible without using their hands. Santa Claus is the presenter. He gives the start and announces the winner.

Collective creativity

Break into two teams. The players sitting on the edge draw a squiggle on the sheet and pass it on. The next player makes an addition with his own squiggle. The result should be a drawing. Whose “masterpiece” will the presenter prefer?

New Year's photo tests

For any holiday, you need to take more photos so that you have something to remember. Why not turn it into a competition?

All participants take turns portraying some kind of New Year’s fairy-tale character:
The most glamorous Christmas tree

And so on…

Naturally, everything is done using pre-prepared props. The final version is the image captured in the photo.

Pull the string

Two guys sit on chairs with their backs to each other. There is a rope or cord under the chairs. At a signal from Santa Claus, each player runs around the other's chair, sits on his own chair and tries to quickly grab the end of the rope and pull it out.

Bright entertainment for the New Year for children in kindergarten with competitions, prizes and gifts - exactly what kids expect from the holiday. Musical and dynamic games will make the New Year's party fun and interesting. Simple and funny competitions will delight children and their parents.

    Game "Hibernating Bear"

    To play the game you will need 3 gymnastic hoops. A group of children plays the role of bunnies, and one child plays the role of a hibernating bear. When the music starts playing, the bunnies go for a walk. They jump near the bear, trying to wake him up. They can sing, dance, laugh, clap and tap their feet on the floor as long as the music plays. When the musical accompaniment subsides, the bear wakes up, and the bunnies hide in hoop houses lying on the floor. If there is a large group of guys, and there are only 3 hoops on the floor, you can hide in them in twos or threes. The bunny that was caught by the bear (who did not have time to hide in the hoop) begins to play the role of a bear. The game continues until interest disappears.

    All children participate in the competition. Participants are divided equally into 2 teams. One team will be wolves. Children have red scarves attached to their belts, which act as ponytails. The second team will be dogs. They are used to attach blue scarves to the belt.

    The wolves decided to sneak into the village to feast on the chickens. The guard dogs must prevent them from doing this. Energetic music is turned on. A team of dogs runs after the wolf cubs, pulling handkerchiefs from their belts and vice versa. After the music stops playing, a count of the caught players is made by the number of handkerchiefs of a certain color. The team with the most handkerchiefs left under its belt wins.

    Game "New Year's Icicle"

    All children stand in a circle. The organizer of the New Year's party gives one of the players an artificial icicle (it can be made from foil). The music turns on. The kids take turns passing the icicle to each other. After the music ends, the icicle ends up in the hands of one of the players. The child who did not manage to pass the icicle to his neighbor must recite a New Year's poem or sing a song. For successful performance, he receives a gift.

    To conduct the competition you will need 3 pairs of children's plastic skis and 3 chairs. Chairs must be placed in a row at a distance of 1.5 meters from each other.

    All children are divided equally into 3 teams. In each of them, a captain is selected. The game begins with the captain. He puts on his skis and runs to the chair. Having run around him, he takes off his skis and returns to his place. Having run to the starting point, he passes the skis to the next participant. Each team player must complete the relay. The team whose members complete the task faster than the rest wins.

    Game "Snowball Fight"

    To play the game, you need to prepare 80 pieces of cotton wool the size of a tennis ball in advance.

    The room where the holiday is held is divided into 2 equal parts. For each of them, 40 snowballs are placed on the floor. All children are divided equally into 2 teams and placed on their field.

    After the “start” signal, each participant must pick up a snowball and throw it at half of the opposing team. The entire game is given 3 minutes. At this time, a children's New Year's song sounds. After the stop signal, the snowballs begin to be counted. The team with the fewest snowballs on its side wins.

    3 children participate in the competition. To conduct the competition you need to take 3 easels. On them you need to attach sheets of paper with an unfinished drawing of a snowman. Kids come up to the easels, carefully study the drawing and receive a colored felt-tip pen or marker. The leader of the holiday explains that the snowman needs to finish drawing the nose, eyes and smile. The children are blindfolded with scarves or headbands, and they begin to draw. During the competition, a cheerful New Year's children's song is played. The author of the most “accurate” and beautiful drawing becomes the winner.
