What fun New Year would be complete without competitions, relay races and other entertainment programs? These games will help you entertain your little guests and tell you what to prepare for this. It will be more interesting if you prepare small souvenirs in advance for those who win. This could be any office supplies: pencils, erasers, pens, balloons, notebooks.
Maybe something edible: candy, waffles (packaged), lollipops, chewing gum, etc.
FUN RELAY
This is a very fun and active game. It should not be done immediately after eating. To conduct this relay race, you will need two chairs (or stools), two ropes on pegs, two buckets, two balls.
Participants are divided into two teams. At the command of the leader, players must complete the following tasks: jump over a rope, run around a chair, throw a ball into a bucket (preferably hit it). The team that performs all the listed actions faster and more accurately wins.
WHO WILL COLLECT THE MOST SNOWFLAKES?
To start this competition, you need to organize a mini-competition on cutting out paper “snowflakes”. To do this, you need to give the children colored and (or) shiny paper of a size suitable for the size of the future “snowflakes”, give them scissors in their hands, and also ask them to use all their imagination and skill and make paper “snowflakes”.
After these small works of art are ready, you can proceed to the competition itself.
“Snowflakes” spill out onto the floor. At the leader’s command (this could be ringing a bell, clapping hands, or the words: “One, two, three, start!”), the children begin to collect “snowflakes.” At the same time, you need to make sure that they collect “snowflakes” not in handfuls, but individually. The game ends when the host rings the bell again (or gives some other command). At the same time, all participants stop, and everyone who can count counts their “trophy”. If the participant does not yet know how to count, then the presenter helps him in this difficult task. The one with the most snowflakes wins.
ACCURATE SHOOTER
This competition develops accuracy and attentiveness in children. For this, you need to prepare “snowballs” in advance (3 “snowballs” per child) from a ball of cotton wool and wrap them in shiny, multi-colored “rain.” But if you haven’t had time to prepare, then you can entrust it to little craftsmen to do it. And as a prize you can give them the same “snowballs” that they make with their own hands. But before you hand out the snowballs, organize a competition.
Divide the participants into two teams. Each player must be given snowballs. Children take turns throwing snowballs into a hoop or basket, which must be prepared in advance and placed on the floor. The team with the most snowballs in the hoop will win.
MEMORIES OF SUMMER
This competition develops children's reaction speed and attentiveness. To hold it, you need to prepare multi-colored “daisies” in advance (according to the number of participants). Each petal of the future “daisy” should be cut out of colored paper the size of a landscape sheet. You also need to cut out a round center that is the size of the “daisy”.
Chamomile petals are laid out on the floor (mixed, colored side up). Participants stand near their “centers”. At the leader's command, they begin to collect daisies. The winner will be the player who collects his daisy first and most correctly.
CORRECT SNOWMAN
To conduct this competition, you need to prepare large sheets of blank paper in advance. The size of the sheet will depend on the size of the snowman you want to see. You can take a sheet of A1 format (Whatman paper). The amount of paper and markers (or markers) will depend on the number of participants.
The players are blindfolded (a neckerchief or scarf is suitable for this purpose) and given a felt-tip pen. Each participant begins to draw a snowman. The winner will be the one whose drawing is the most accurate (or more suitable for the image of a snowman).
This competition can be made as a team competition. Each team has three players. In this case, each participant will draw his own snowman circle. The team that completed the task better will win.
BALL BASKETBALL
For this game, you will need to inflate two balloons in advance, prepare two baskets in which these balls would fit, and two 30-50 cm rulers.
Participants are divided into two teams. Each player must “bring” the ball with a ruler to the basket (through the air) and lower it with the same ruler into the basket standing on the floor. In this case, the ball should not fall to the floor and should not be touched by any part of the body. The winner is the team that gets the ball to the basket faster than the other (one at a time) with the fewest mistakes. The game may end if the ball bursts.
WHERE IS THE NOSE?
For the game to be a success, you need to draw a snowman in advance on a large sheet of paper (you can use whatman paper) and attach it to some vertical surface (wall, door, closet, etc.). Make the nose for this snowman separately: take a sheet of paper, roll it into the shape of a nose (“potato-shaped”, elongated) and wrap it with tape, but only with the sticky side up, so that the nose sticks to any surface.
Participants line up one after another, dividing into two teams. The queue can be established by numbers that are drawn in advance. The presenter blindfolds each player with a handkerchief or scarf, then spins the participant around his axis with the words: “It spins, spins, everything will stick to us,” and turns him to face the drawing. The player must stick the snowman's nose while blindfolded. For each accurate sticking of the nose, the participant receives a snowflake. The team with the most snowflakes wins.
NEW YEAR'S PICTURES
This game develops attention in children. Both interesting and useful. It will require two identical pictures with drawings (Christmas trees, snowmen, snowflakes, sleighs, skates).
The presenter lays out the pictures on the table, images down, and mixes them. Two participants take turns choosing two pictures. If the images match, the player takes them for himself; if not, he puts them back. The game continues until there are no pictures left on the table. The one who collects the most pictures wins.
Grandmas-Hedgehogs
This is an active game. To carry it out, prepare in advance a broom (like a janitor) or a broom, skittles (the quantity depends on the available distance). Participants must be divided into two teams. Each player runs on a broomstick (zigzag) between pins placed at a distance of 2-3 m from one another. In this game, the team that runs the fastest and knocks down the fewest pins wins.
DASHING CHAUFFERS
In this game, you will need toy cars (preferably trucks), on which you can place glasses (or small buckets) of water, filled to the brim. The number of cars will depend on the number of participants. Participants will have numbers pinned to their chests.
You need to tie ropes of the same length (10-15 m) to the cars. At the leader’s command, participants must quickly wind the rope around the stick, pulling the machine towards them. If the water splashes, the presenter loudly calls the number of the “driver”, and he stops winding the rope for a second. The winner is the participant who pulled up the car faster than the others without spilling the water. You can play without water, you just need to lengthen the rope.
BALL RACING
This is a very fun and noisy game. Before the game you need to inflate the balloons very much. Each participant sits on his own ball and begins to jump on it. The goal of the game is to jump on the ball as long as possible without it bursting.
The winner will be the one whose balloon goes the longest without bursting.
FLIGHT ON SNOWFLAKES
For this outdoor game, we will need to cut out 4 paper “snowflakes” in a size that matches the shoe size of the largest participant. “Snowflakes” can be made from ordinary white or colored paper, but it will be better if they are made from some thick paper (for example, Whatman paper) or thin cardboard.
All participants must be divided into two teams. At the leader’s signal, the participants must put one “snowflake” on the floor and step on it with both feet (without stepping on the free floor), then put the other one and step on it. So, rearranging the “snowflakes”, reach the chair. While the kids “fly” from “snowflake” to “snowflake”, the presenter can comment on their “flight”. Participants must run back. The team that arrives the fastest will win.
COCK-FIGHTS
This outdoor game can be played between two players or between two teams. Two participants stand opposite each other. At the leader’s command, the participants put one hand behind their back and begin to jump on one leg. At the same time, they push each other with their free hand. The winner is the participant who can stay on one leg longer than the other (without falling or standing on the other leg). If the game is played between teams, then each participant who wins is given a “snowflake” cut out of paper. The winning team will be the one with the most snowflakes.
MISSING UNDER THE CAP
For this game you need to make a beautiful New Year's hat out of paper in advance, decorate it with tinsel, “rain”, and brightly paint it.
One player is taken out of the room where the participants are located. The remaining players (or the leader) hide one participant under a bright blanket and cover it with a prepared cap on top. All other participants change places. When the presenter brings in the player who came out, the player must determine who is hidden under the hood.
NEW YEAR FIGURES
This competition develops imagination and intelligence in young participants. The presenter gives each player multi-colored, bright, non-stick plasticine. Then he shows a letter (it is better to write the letters in advance on separate cards). Participants must create something New Year's (or winter) starting with this letter as quickly as possible. It could be a sleigh, a snowman, a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, a hat, mittens, felt boots. The winner will be the one who makes a plasticine figure the fastest.
FOUND RING
A large ring (diameter about 20-25 cm) is suitable for this game. It can be made from wire or cut out of some thick paper. And to make it elegant, it should be wrapped in shiny paper, tinsel or “rain”. Participants sit on chairs in a circle. Each player is given a rope, the ends of which are pre-tied, and a ring is threaded through this rope. The presenter (one of the little guests) stands in the middle of this circle. He is blindfolded with a handkerchief or scarf. The leader’s task is to find the ring on a string, while all participants move it in a circle or in different directions. When the ring is found, the leader should be changed.
FUNNY SLEDGE
In this game, participants must be divided into 2-3 equal teams. Each player is given a paper “sled” tied to a thread (the length of the thread can be 1-1.2 m), which must be cut out in advance from a landscape sheet and decorated with 2-3 (depending on the number of teams) colors. Each participant fastens his end of the thread with the “sledge” to the back of his belt so that the “sleigh” freely touches the floor. If the participant cannot do this, the presenter helps him. Each team has a different color sled. At the leader’s signal, the players, running after each other, try to step on the “sled” of the “opponent”. Participants are not allowed to touch the threads and sleds with their hands. The player whose sled is torn off leaves the game. The team with the most sleds left wins.
CHASING THE ICICLE
This competition will require two participants. But it can be carried out until everyone present has played enough in pairs.
You need to tie an “icicle” in the middle of the rope. You can take it from old stocks of Christmas tree decorations or, if you have imagination and skill, make it yourself from paper, cotton wool or something else and wrap it with multi-colored paper, tinsel or “rain”. A simple pencil, also beautifully designed, is attached to the ends of the rope. Each participant stands on their own side of the rope. His task is to wind his part of the rope around the pencil. The winner will be the one who reaches the “icicle” faster than the other.
JUMP INTO THE NEW YEAR
For this competition, all participants (if there is a very large number of participants, then take half) must be lined up in one line. At the command of the presenter, all participants “jump” into the New Year. The winner is the participant who jumped the farthest.
NAVIGATOR
This is just a fun game that does not require any skills from children. For this game, you should prepare in advance binoculars and a rope 5-6 m long (or such a length that it is comparable to the size of the room in which the competition is held). You need to lay a rope on the floor, not in a straight strip, but in a winding way. The participant is given binoculars, turning them over so that the objects become smaller. The participant, looking through binoculars, must walk along the entire length of the rope, trying to get his feet on it more accurately. The winner will be the navigator who completes the entire course more accurately than other navigators.

New Year's games for high school students near the Christmas tree
If you can captivate kids very easily, getting teenagers interested will require effort. They like games in which the spirit of competition is clearly expressed, but the fun moments have not been canceled either.
Funny, active, funny and amusing New Year competitions for children will make the holiday unforgettable. They give a good mood, a lot of positive emotions, and bring together those who find themselves in the same circle that night. They reveal a variety of children's talents: some sing great, some draw masterfully, and some end up being faster and smarter than everyone else.
A child is always interested in comparing himself with others and learning how to lose deservedly. This educational moment also applies to New Year’s games, which can be arranged with both kids and teenagers. They will come in handy for a school-wide New Year tree, a kindergarten event, and a family holiday.
Coming up with your own New Year's competitions for children so that they get involved in any age category is a mastery of aerobatics. Firstly, nothing can surprise modern children; their demands for entertainment are quite high, and they can react to many competitions and games with a sour expression and refusal to participate in them. Secondly, the New Year theme involves the use of appropriate paraphernalia and heroes, which must be taken into account when selecting certain competitions. Our useful tips will help you choose the best and most fun options from the variety offered on the Internet.
- Age
Decide on the age category of children who will take part in New Year's competitions. If outdoor games are important for kids, then you can organize intellectual battles for schoolchildren, and for teenagers you can include elements of gags and jokes.
- Place
The location of the competition for the New Year will also matter. For example, in kindergarten, children can be lined up in a round dance and have fun outdoor games around the Christmas tree. But at school you will need more serious joke games with jokes and intellectual tasks. And it is much easier to organize such events at home, in the family circle, when no one will be embarrassed.
- Plot
Carefully read the texts for children's New Year's competitions offered on various sites. Make sure that there was not a hint of vulgarity for adults, which is so much on the Internet today. Imagine the whole game from start to finish: wouldn't it be too difficult for children? did you understand everything during the scenario? Can you get all the attributes for the competition? Think through all these points in advance to make the holiday a success.
- Leading
Don't forget to decide who will be the presenter at the New Year's children's competitions. Can you organize them so that the kids don’t get bored on the holiday evening and get a lot of positive emotions? Maybe it makes sense to invite a professional to do this or invite actors in the guise of Father Frost and the Snow Maiden?
When choosing New Year's competitions and games for children, consider the smallest details. These are not just competitions that help while away a weekday evening in the yard or at home. They should be truly incendiary, fun, and memorable. They need to be carried out in such a way that even the losers are happy and choked with delight and overwhelming emotions. This is the essence of the New Year: only joy, laughter and no negative emotions - this is the main rule. Start your selection with the age groups of children.
Preschool age
It is most difficult to find interesting competitions for the New Year for preschool children, since their circle is limited to active and extremely simple games. On the one hand, children 3-6 years old are very responsive and always willingly participate in such events. However, they may not always understand the conditions and rules of the competition, and in case of failure, resentment may end in tears. Therefore, the selection of New Year's games for kids needs to be taken as responsibly as possible.
- Nesmeyana
Game situation for the New Year's competition: on the eve of the New Year, the Snow Maiden was stolen, and only Nesmeyana knows who is hiding her and where. One of the adults pretends to be a sad, whiny princess, whom the children must make laugh so that she reveals her secret to them.
- “I’ll freeze it!”
The Snow Maiden asks Father Frost:
- Grandfather, can you freeze everything?
- Yes! - he answers.
- But try to freeze our guys! Children, quickly hide what Grandpa wants to freeze!
To the accompaniment of cheerful, energetic music, the children around Grandfather dance in a circle. When he says:
- I'll freeze your ears! - everyone covers their ears with their palms.
- Fun questions
The leader of the round dance asks the children funny questions about Santa Claus, which they need to be able to answer correctly. Not all kids can do this. Sometimes, out of consonance, they give incorrect answers, which amuses all the presenters.
— Is Santa Claus a cheerful old man? - Yes
— Do you like jokes and gags? - Yes
- Does he know songs and riddles? - Yes
— Will he eat our chocolates? - No
— Will he light a Christmas tree for all the children? - Yes
— Wears shorts and a T-shirt? - No
- He doesn’t age in soul, does he? - Yes
- Does it keep us warm outside? - No
— Is Santa Claus the brother of Frost? - Yes
- Is our birch good? - No
— Is the New Year closer to us, closer? - Yes
— Is there a Snow Maiden there in Paris? - No
— Is Santa Claus bringing gifts? - Yes
— Does Grandfather drive a foreign car? - No
— Does he wear a fur coat and a hat? - No
- Doesn't he look like dad? - Yes
Such New Year's competitions for young children will allow you to avoid pitfalls and have a fun holiday without unpleasant surprises in the form of grievances and tears. It would be better for this age category if the presenters represent Father Frost and the Snow Maiden or some other fairy-tale characters typical of the New Year. This will give the holiday an appropriate flavor and the kids will remember it for a long time.
7-9 years
For children 7-8 years old, you need to look for something more serious. Of course, outdoor New Year's games and competitions for this age category are not going anywhere, but they can already be diluted with creative and intellectual elements. This will make the holiday more exciting, will help the children open up and show their talents.
- New Year's cap
You need to prepare a paper hat in advance and paint it in a fun New Year's way. Children are divided into two teams. Each of them has 1 representative. A cap is put on one of them. The second opponent is given a long stick (make sure its tip is not very sharp), with which he must carefully remove the magic headdress from his opponent and put it on himself. After that they change. All team members must do this. The task of the New Year's competition is considered unfulfilled if the cap fell to the floor or the opponent was painfully hit with a stick.
- Christmas decorations
The guys are divided into two teams. The first one is Christmas tree decorations. The second one should decorate the New Year tree with them. Members of the first team must, without words, depict some well-known Christmas tree toy (a ball, a star, a gnome, etc.), and the opponents must guess what they are showing them.
- Snowballs
For this New Year's competition, you will have to make a cardboard Christmas tree, cutting holes in it with a diameter of 15-20 cm. Prepare paper balls, which children should use from a distance to fall into the holes on the artificial New Year's tree. The most accurate sniper will receive a prize!
Undoubtedly, the most popular are funny New Year's competitions, when it is simply impossible not to laugh while watching those who take part in the announced competition. Parents should pay attention to them. There should not be so many serious, creative competitions: New Year was invented in order to have fun, and children should be given this opportunity!
10-12 years
At the age of 10-11, despite the proximity of adolescence, schoolchildren still love to have fun, so choose funny competitions for children that will not let them get bored either at school or at home. However, more subtle humor is acceptable here; it is worth taking into account the participation in games of girls and boys, who begin to show their first sympathies at this age.
- New Year's popcorn
Children are divided into two teams. Paper cups filled with popcorn are attached to the players' feet with tape. So you need to run a certain distance, dropping as little precious burden as possible along the way. Popcorn is poured into the team's bowl. Whoever turns out to be fuller at the end of the New Year's competition wins.
- Liberator of the Snow Maiden
In the New Year's competition, a fabulous situation is created: on New Year's Eve, the Snow Maiden was stolen and locked away. Two opponents are offered two locked locks and a bunch of keys. Whoever picks up the key faster and unlocks his lock is considered the winner and the noble liberator of the Snow Maiden.
- Creative competitions
In this age group, be sure to hold New Year’s creative competitions for children: who can better draw a New Year’s tree of the future or a modern Snow Maiden. Here they will show their talents in all their glory.
For this age, New Year's competitions for children and adults will be quite useful, since their interaction will certainly be productive and will give many pleasant and fun minutes. Children aged 10-12 like to feel equal to adults and even be better than them in some ways. If you give them such an opportunity for the New Year, their delight will know no bounds.
13-15 years old
The most interesting age is 13-14 years old, when teenagers should be called children with caution, because in their essence they are no longer such. However, they will also be happy to have fun on New Year’s Eve, especially if the company is of different sexes: boys and girls of this age love to flirt with each other, and where else, if not in games, can this be done in front of everyone? If you have a gathering of young people, look for New Year’s competitions for children and parents, in which absolutely everyone will participate: in this case, this is the best option.
- Geese and ducks
Participants in the New Year's competition line up one after another so that their hands are on the shoulders of the person in front. It's good if boys alternate with girls. The presenter approaches each of them and whispers in their ear either “duck” or “goose” (there should be more such people) so that the others do not hear it. After this, the presenter explains that if he now says the word “duck”, all the players to whom he said it will press both legs together. If “goose” - one leg. It seems that there is nothing special in this New Year's competition, but as soon as you say the cherished word out loud, you will understand how fun it is.
- New Year's makeup
Distribute the teenagers into boy-girl pairs. It is better to warn the participants of this New Year's competition in advance and select only those who really would not mind such an “extreme”. Young people are blindfolded and given eye shadow, blush and lipstick. And they start putting makeup on their partner's face. Usually the competition is a great success, because the results are very inspiring and fun for everyone present.
- Sausage for the New Year
A very funny competition that will amuse everyone at the festive New Year's table. The presenter asks the children various questions about the New Year, and they, in turn, must always answer with one word, which must be derived from the word “sausage.” For example:
— How did you celebrate this New Year? - Sausage!
— What will you do on January 1? - Suck it!
— What do you want to receive as a gift for the New Year? - Sausage!
The main condition of this funny New Year's competition is not to laugh under any circumstances and always answer with a serious face. Whoever laughs first is out of the game.
- Attentive Ensemble
All the children present are invited to sing together the song “A Christmas tree was born in the forest.” The conductor of this New Year's competition is selected (an adult, the presenter, can take on his role). He warns teenagers to take a closer look at his hands. As soon as he clenches one hand into a fist, everyone should suddenly fall silent. As a rule, not everyone succeeds in this and some continue to sing the New Year's song alone.
In fact, you can find a variety of funny and very interesting children's competitions for the New Year, which will so lift your spirits and cheer that everyone will remember the holiday for a long time. Parents should take care of the selection of games in advance in order to have a large number of competitions in their arsenal that will not let them get bored. The child will be delighted if he spends New Year's days with friends in a fun and exciting way. Well, don’t forget to choose a gift, and if you don’t know what to give, read.

An active and fun game, suitable for any age. Everyone present puts colorful socks on their feet, gets down on all fours and tries to take off the socks of others, but at the same time save their own. The one who collects the most socks wins.
Geese and ducks
Participants in the New Year's competition line up one after another so that their hands are on the shoulders of the person in front. It's good if boys alternate with girls. The presenter approaches each of them and whispers in their ear either “duck” or “goose” (there should be more such people) so that the others do not hear it. After this, the presenter explains that if he now says the word “duck”, all the players to whom he said it will press both legs together. If “goose” - one leg. It seems that there is nothing special in this New Year's competition, but as soon as you say the cherished word out loud, you will understand how fun it is.
Attracting the symbol of the year
In advance, you need to draw up several interesting and educational questions regarding the animal that will be a symbol of the coming year. The one who gives the most correct answers will receive a prize in the form, for example, of the animal’s favorite treat.
Now she's smart...
Team game. Each team receives Christmas tree decorations and clothespins. The task is to hang everything on... one of the team members. Let him spread his fingers and shine like a Christmas tree! The presenter keeps track of the time; you can turn on music or the “chime” to count down the time.
New Year's games
“Favorite holiday gives
magic, love and
inspired by hope."
F.M. Tyutchev.
Is there any other holiday that almost everyone loves, regardless of age and place of residence? New Year is celebrated not only in Russia, but throughout the world. Most people are busy preparing for the holiday and deciding where, how and with whom to celebrate. New Year's games with Father Frost and Snow Maiden are one of the most long-awaited and fun events for everyone, and especially for children. In the series of intellectual games, New Year's games occupy one of the important places.
The use of ICT at this event makes it vibrant and meaningful. There is an impact on two important organs (hearing and vision), which facilitates the process of perception. New Year's games promote the development of attention, memory, concentration, observation, and thinking. The use of musical accompaniment during games ensures dynamism.
Goals New Year's games:
1. nurturing creative abilities, abilities and skills of collective creative activity.
2. creating a festive mood in children through active participation in the competitive gaming program.
Tasks:
Uniting the children's team;
Formation of the ability to visually control the correctness and accuracy of one’s movements;
Develop the ability to quickly and accurately respond to a new unpredictable production situation and find unexpected and non-standard solutions;
Form a search style of thinking and work, development of communication skills.
This methodological development will be useful for teachers-organizers of additional education and primary school teachers for extracurricular work. A selection of New Year's games near the Christmas tree will allow you to successfully spend this most favorite holiday for children. The games are divided into sections:
round dance games;
games with Baba Yaga;
snowball games;
shouting games (speech games);
games with objects;
winter sports riddles (difficult)
GAMES IN ROUND DANCE
1." Catch the "winter" word"
Invite the children to clap their hands if they hear a word related to winter: blizzard, inflatable ring, winter, snow, Monday, Christmas tree, sea, sleigh, Santa Claus, autumn leaves, bicycle, snowman, dolphin, icicle, snowflake, scissors, Snow Maiden, firecrackers, vacuum cleaner, gifts, skis, etc.
2. "New Year's round dance"
In this New Year’s game, the leader gathers the children in a circle and says: “There are different Christmas trees: wide, and low, and tall, and thin. If I say “high” - raise your hands up, “low” - squat, “wide” - make the circle wider, “thin” - make the circle narrower.” The game begins. The leader gives the children tasks, trying to confuse them.
3. “Smeshinka”
Here's another fun game. It’s called “Smeshinka.” Each child receives a New Year’s name. For example: icicle, Christmas tree, Snow Maiden, snowdrift, flashlight, firecracker. The presenter takes turns asking the kids questions: “What’s your name? What’s on your nose? Which one?” Is it a holiday today? Who's coming to visit us? What did you have for breakfast? Children answer questions with their “names.” The main condition is that you cannot laugh. Whoever laughs leaves the circle. The most serious one certainly receives a New Year’s gift.
4. "Snowball"
Usually children prepare gifts for Santa Claus in the form of a performance. But it will be more interesting not to just stand under the Christmas tree and recite the routine rhyme, but to play the “Snowball” game first. Everyone passes around a “snowball” made of cotton wool. At the same time, Santa Claus says:
We're all rolling a snowball,
We all count to five.
One two three four five -
Sing a song for you
(And you, my friend, should dance,
Now each participant fulfills the wishes of Grandfather Frost and receives a New Year's gift from him.

Let's do it together: like this! (jump, raise your hands up)
Once - bend over, straighten up!
Two - jump up, pull yourself up!
Three – clap your hands three times.
Three nods of the head.
By four the rivers are wider,
We raise our hands up.
And then we lower them,
Now let's separate them!
And we’ll quickly press you to us.
And then faster, faster,
Clap, stomp, have fun!
Five, six - sit down quietly.
7. “Ear, nose.”
The presenter invites the children to do the following: grab their nose with their right hand, and their right ear with their left, then clap their hands and change hands, now grab their nose with their left hand, and their left ear with their right. The movements are repeated several times, with acceleration.
8. "New Year's auction"

Morning will come, the gnome will go on a hike again (they walk)
10. “Naughty girls”
All children are located around the hall in a circle. Cheerful music is playing and the players are dancing. As soon as the music stops, the presenter announces: “Puffs!” (children puff) Then the cheerful music plays again, the players dance. At the end of the music, the presenter announces: “Tweeters!” (children squeak) Thus, the game continues further with various pranks: “Chants!” (children scream); "Squealers!" (children squeal); "The funny ones!" (children laugh) and again from the beginning. The order in which pranks are announced changes periodically.
GAMES WITH BABA YAGA
1. "Baba Yaga"
Relay game. A simple bucket is used as a stupa, and a mop is used as a broom. The participant stands with one foot in the bucket, the other remains on the ground. With one hand he holds the bucket by the handle, and in the other hand he holds a mop. In this position, you need to walk the entire distance and pass the mortar and broom to the next one.
2. “Bicycle race on Baba Yaga’s broom”
The bicycle will be replaced by a gymnastic stick in this relay race. Two participants need to ride the stick at once. They are cyclists. Each cycling duo, holding a stick between their legs, will have to ride to the turning point and back. The fastest ones win.

Relay game. The participant sits on a broom and walks the entire distance, running around the placed pins, without lifting the broom from the floor.
GAMES WITH SNOWBALLS

Game option– 2 bowls with snowballs are placed on one chair near the Christmas tree, empty bowls are placed on another chair in the room. Children must carry snowballs.
2. « The most dexterous"
Father Frost and Snow Maiden (or other characters according to the script) are holding in their hand a hoop entwined with Christmas tree tinsel. Cotton balls (“snowballs”) are poured onto the floor. Children, at the heroes' command, throw lumps into the hoops, then count the number of hits in Santa Claus's hoop and in the Snow Maiden's hoop.
3. “Hit the target.”
(Snowballs are first rolled out of paper. Children are divided into two groups. Each has a snowball in their hands. Everyone needs to get into their own box. The team that collects the most snowballs wins).
4. “Catch a snowball!”
Several couples participate. Children stand opposite each other at a distance of approximately 4 meters. One child has an empty bucket, the other has a bag with a certain number of “snowballs” (tennis or rubber balls). At a signal, the child throws snowballs, and the partner tries to catch them with a bucket. The first couple to finish the game and collect the most snowballs wins.
5. “Collect snowballs”
A lot of “snowballs” (crumpled white paper or balls sewn from white cloth and cotton wool) are scattered on the floor. Children are given baskets or beautifully decorated boxes. You need to collect all the “snowballs” into your baskets as quickly as possible (preferably while listening to music) (you can collect “snowballs” blindfolded).
As a continuation This game can involve throwing snowballs at each other.
6. “Snowballs are flying to the target”
After the previous game, you can test the children’s accuracy: invite them to throw snowballs into a basket or box from a distance of about 2-3 steps (for older children, a different distance is naturally chosen).
7. “Who has a snowball?”
The driver becomes in the center. The rest of the game participants form a tight circle around him. Behind their backs they pass each other a “snowball” (made of fabric and cotton wool).

Believe me, this is not a fight, but - ... (hockey)
4. Two metal brothers
How they grew together with the shoes,
Wanted to go for a ride
Top! - onto the ice and off we went.
Ay, yes brothers, ay, easy! What are the brothers' names?
(Skates)
5. I put two wooden arrows on my legs.
I wanted to go down the mountain
Yes, he flew head over heels.
There was a lot of laughter from that dump:
They are on me and on top of the stick!
(Skis)
6. A figure skater dances on the ice
Spinning like an autumn leaf.
He performs a pirouette
Then a double sheepskin coat... Oh, no!
He's not wearing a fur coat, he's lightly dressed.
And now the duet is on the ice.
Eh, good skating!
The audience held its breath.
The sport is called... (figure skating)
7. It's difficult, no matter what you say
Rush down the mountain at speed!
And the obstacles stand -
There are a whole series of flags there.
The skier needs to go through them.
There is a reward for victory,
Congratulations pour in.
This sport is called...(slalom).
8. It's very difficult to be, don't argue,
The most accurate in this sport.
Just rush along the ski track,
Even I can do it.
Try running for a day yourself
And then hit the target,
Lying supine, with a rifle.
You can't do this without training!
And your target is not an elephant.
The sport is called...(biathlon).
9. We know many sports:
Both hockey and skjøring.
And they push a stone across the ice -
It will be... (Curling).
10. Look: the skier is rushing,
And then he flies like a bird,
Taking a leap from the peaks.
And he helped him... (springboard).
11. The sleigh is rushing along the chute,
Ice on both sides.
And here's what it's called
This sport? – ...(Skeleton).
12. Rush down the snowy slopes -
A very courageous sport!
And it will help the champions
In this sport...(snowboarding).
