We all love holidays, both personal and corporate. After all, a holiday is a great opportunity to communicate in a relaxed atmosphere with friends, relatives, colleagues, to congratulate the hero of the occasion. And of course, have fun. What makes any holiday unique and memorable? Of course, the entertainment program. And here a sea of questions arises from the organizers.
It is not enough to pick up interesting contests, to compose a non-banal scenario, but it is also necessary to approach the choice of prizes correctly. After all, you need to be firmly convinced that the gifts will please the guests, and not disappoint. What should be the prize? What criteria should meet the most successful, the most successful gift for competitions? We will try to cover all aspects of the ideal prize.
First of all, a holiday is fun. And it does not matter that serious men or respectable ladies are present on it.
Be sure to put fun, festive attributes in a bag of surprises. It can be crackers or soap bubbles, clown noses or funny ears, serpentine or sparklers.
Do not hesitate, guests immediately use such things for their intended purpose.
But it's so much fun when a planned celebration with boring toasts suddenly turns into an interesting party with a million soap bubbles.
And just for a second imagine your strict boss with a clown nose or an important, always dissatisfied employee with angel wings behind her shoulders. Such props guarantee the success of any holiday.
Any successful gift should easily fit into an ordinary women's handbag or package.
Giving large or heavy souvenirs does not make sense. First of all, they are inconvenient to hand. The recipient of the prize has a headache, how to deliver such a gift home. Yes, and when purchasing a large number of such presentations, there are problems with transportation, which can result in a decent amount.
It is better to give preference to small and piece souvenirs in the form of figurines, bonbonnieres, candlesticks, stationery.
Items that are fragile or have many small parts are not ideal as prizes.
It is best to avoid this choice. It's a shame if the chosen thing with a soul becomes unusable during transportation or directly upon delivery.
And on merry wild holidays, such a prize can easily fall, break, or be damaged.
The gift should have its own zest. It is simply obliged to cling, to cause a desire to possess it. Cool or evocative things are much more appropriate than faceless banal souvenirs.
Believe me, funny glasses, mustachioed masks evoke much more emotions than banal photo frames or lollipops.
Do not put piercing, cutting objects in a gift bag. This condition is related to the safety of storage, delivery, and transportation itself.
Of course, you can make an exception for sharps packed in safe boxes. But where is the guarantee that such a prize will not be instantly unpacked after receipt. Especially when it comes to children's parties.
The holiday becomes boring if the same or the same type of prizes are provided for all competitions.
What will be the intrigue when, after a couple of contests, it becomes clear to the guests that they will receive stationery or a funny hat as a gift. Prizes must be from different areas.
Funny and useful, original and good - let the guests guess what the next prize will be for the presenter.
Fortunately, the gift industry allows you to choose a variety of prizes. Be sure to provide completely different prizes and gifts for different contests and sweepstakes. Consider also gift options for men and women. It will not be very interesting for a guy to get a set of threads, and an old woman for pliers.
Choose kitchen or household trifles, toys and decorations, souvenirs or tools for competitions.
Pretty interesting presentations that remain in front of our eyes all evening.
Of course, gifts placed on the table will not cause a storm of emotions. But those things that you can put on your head, neck, shoulders or just hold in your hands, improve your mood.
You can easily create a festive atmosphere with huge scarves or funny ties, colorful balloons or funny wigs, rattles and carnival hats.
Having put on such a cool thing, any guest is unlikely to want to say goodbye to her before the end of the evening.
Contests with fun and funny gifts are great. But besides this, the prize should cause good pleasant and bright feelings. For each person, good emotions are associated with different things.
But a soft toy received as a gift is always touching. And hand made souvenirs are generally a unique gift. Such things retain the warmth of human hands for a long time, which made efforts to create them, and are distinguished by their originality.
It is not necessary to purchase such souvenirs - you can easily make them yourself with your own hands.
First of all, gifts that are useful in everyday life are in demand. There are just too many such gifts.
Of course, you will not greatly surprise your friends and relatives, but you will definitely please with kitchen towels or soap self made, wicker baskets or mugs with jokes, carved candles or shower gels, unusual photo frames or caskets, spice jars or a set of spices.
Most importantly, do not stop at the hackneyed and boring tricks.
Agree, even as a prize for participating in the competition, shaving foam or a set of socks received by a man will not cause positive emotions. Women can also react by getting into banal potholders, which clearly indicate her place after hours.
Perhaps this is one of the most important criteria for any gifts that are awarded for contests. The theme and style of the celebration must be traced in gifts.
Gifts with erotic overtones at a sentimental style wedding will be completely inappropriate. In this case, it is better to dwell on things that have a romantic meaning.
It can be angels and hearts, swans and flowers. And it is not necessary to embody such ideas in the form of figurines. Fortunately, sentimental motifs can be traced in various gift paraphernalia.
But if you are preparing a cheerful bachelorette party with immodest hints, feel free to purchase various cool things in the form of fur handcuffs, erotic cubes and other girly paraphernalia.
Prepare a biker birthday - take care of serious gifts for tough men. At such a holiday, guests will be happy with fingerless gloves, beer mugs, themed posters.
And do not try to put fragrant soap in a bag of gifts, and even more so a soft toy.
Consider not only the style of the holiday, but also the theme, design solutions, and even the time of year when it is held.
So for a wedding organized in a certain color, try to pick up gifts in the same color scheme.
Even more thoughtful should be approached when choosing gifts for themed weddings. In this case, the theme itself suggests where you need to move.
At a knight's wedding, shields and swords, as well as foil helmets, will be appropriate.
You can buy a regular darts, which will be associated with a bow and arrow. Such gifts will not only fit perfectly into the theme of the celebration, but will definitely delight guests.
For any holiday that takes place in the winter months, and even more so on the eve of the New Year and Christmas holidays, various New Year paraphernalia will do. Use serpentine and confetti, candles and tinsel, Christmas decorations and cones.
Souvenirs or toys that represent the symbol of the year, as well as interesting funny caps, will also be appropriate.
Of course, it is easier to buy just a variety of souvenirs. But thematic presentations that are selected for each specific competition will look much more relevant and even funnier.
So, after the dance competition, the participant can be awarded not just a medal as the best dancer, but cool pom-poms used by girls from support groups.
But the competition for the head of the family should include gifts related directly to family life. It can be rolling pins, brooms, screwdrivers.
This criterion applies more to gifts that are given at corporate parties or personal holidays, where most of the guests-colleagues are present.
For a holiday where doctors gather, you can pick up cool vitamins, a sister's erotic costume, and hematogen bars.
But for a teacher's party, the same recipes or curved rulers are suitable.
This criterion does not apply specifically to children's holidays, but to all celebrations where kids are present. In any case, it is worth giving cute presents to children.
Believe me, such a gesture of goodwill will be received with a bang by all the guests.
Children's gifts are enjoyed not only by kids, but also by adults.
Not a single adult will refuse to receive greetings from childhood in the form of a rattle or a small car, a coloring book or a doll, a set of plasticine or a skipping rope.
The most interesting and funny situations are played out when the owner of such a gift does not correspond to him at all.
This refers to souvenirs with the image of the hero of the occasion.
Thermal mugs or T-shirts, magnets or calendars, puzzles and just collages with photos of the birthday boy, young people look quite interesting.
Such a present will definitely not only be original, but touching, and will be remembered by all guests for a long time.
We tried to pick up all the important criteria that relate to the choice of gifts for contests. If you still missed important or small details, share your thoughts in the comments.
Guests are divided into several teams, depending on the total number of people at the celebration. The team should be about 5-6 people. The task of each of the teams is to think over and show a funny short film from the theme: "One day from our work." For the best acting, production and so on, the team receives an Oscar in the form of a bottle of champagne, for example.
Participants are given cards with comic questions. For example, "how to make a dog fly", "how to stop a plane quickly", "how to eat pea soup" and so on. In one or two minutes, the players must complete a detailed step by step instructions and write it down on a piece of paper. The author of the most detailed and funny instructions wins.
2 girls are selected. Each of them is offered certain situations from which you need to come up with a creative way out. Time to think 15 seconds. The most original answer will win.
Situation options:
1. Imagine you've been saving for months for a dress you were going to wear to a party. And now this moment has come, you bought a dress, created the perfect image, arrived at the indicated place, take off your coat, and in front of you is a girl in the same dress. What will you do?
2. You have a dream date, everything is wonderful, but at one moment your heel breaks. Your actions?
3. You did the perfect makeup, took care of the hair, but at the last moment the date was canceled, what are your actions?
4. You ate a meal with garlic, put on a mask and decided to wind the curlers. A knock on the door, on the threshold of a dream man. What will you do?
5. After a romantic evening, your boyfriend walks you home and you accidentally call him by a false name. Your actions?
At the beginning of the evening, the host announces that throughout the fun and celebration there will be a contest for the best selfie. That is, there will be a camera on the table, which each of the guests can take and capture themselves in the most interesting position, for example, with the boss, on the balcony, and so on. At the end of the evening, all the shots are shown on a big screen (using a USB connection) and the best selfie is chosen by the applause of the guests. And so that the guests do not forget, the presenter periodically reminds everyone about the selfie contest. As a prize, you can give a funny award - a photo frame with a photo of Chuck Norris, because he is the coolest.
For this competition, you will need to make some blanks (on several sheets of paper - in accordance with the number of participants - draw individual geometric shapes, for example, a circle, a square, a triangle, an oval, a rhombus, a simple curve, and so on). All sheets have the same geometric shapes. Each participant receives such a sheet and a marker. At the command of the leader, the team members must draw the rest of the body to a specific figure, turning a certain geometric figure in the figure - your employee, colleague and sign each one, you also need to draw yourself. Then the host collects all the pictures and shows the guests of the corporate party, vote for the best picture, the author of which is awarded a prize. And pictures of employees can be left in the office as a keepsake to cheer up.
The whole team should be divided into several teams with the same number of participants. Each team is placed in front of the same cardboard box (depending on the number of participants, “by eye” choose the size of the box). On the “start” command, individual teams must get together on a flight for talks in economy class, that is, by all possible and impossible ways to get into a cardboard box (someone on one leg, someone in the arms of someone, and so on). The team that completes the plane the fastest will be the winner.
Each participant had a great opportunity to get money for the development of the company. So, each participant receives the same jar with the same number of coins. On the lid of each jar there is the same hole through which you can get a coin. On the “start” command, the participants begin to shake their jars and get coins out of it. You just have to do it with your eyes closed. The participant who, faster than the rest, will get all the coins to a single one from his jar, will become the winner.
It will take preparation. First you will need to make "drifts" from pieces of paper (depending on the number of participants). In each "snowdrift" there should be a card with the image of a snowdrop hidden. It is desirable that the flower be applied to one of the pieces. Within 45 seconds, you need to find a snowdrop. The one who can complete the task wins.
In front of each participant are the same items (pencil and shavings; printed banknotes and an elastic band; documents - simple sheets and a stapler; several pens and a number of caps from them; files and several sheets with the inscription "put me in a file"). At the “start” command, participants must put their workplace in order by cutting a pencil, putting caps on pens, fastening documents, folding banknotes into a pile and fastening them with an elastic band, folding the sheets into files. Whoever does it first wins the prize.
The team is divided into several teams with the same number of participants. Team members stand in separate rows. All participants are given a toothpick. The first participants are given an open jar of olives. On the “start” command, the first participants prick an olive with a toothpick and pass it to the second participants on the toothpick, the second participants pass it to the third, the third to the fourth, and so on until the last. The last participants receive an olive and eat it with a cry of "ate". Then the first participants prick the next olive and pass it to the second, the second - to the third, and so on until the penultimate one, the penultimate participant receives an olive and eats it. The participants pass the next olive to the participant - the third from the end, then - to the fourth from the end, and so on until the first participant eats the olive. The winner is the team in which the turn to eat the olive will reach the first participant faster and he will eat it.
Below is a selection of games for a group of people. Games are suitable for working corporate parties, as well as for just meeting with friends.
If you also have fun games in mind, then you are welcome in the comments. I will definitely post these games in the post.
Just want to separately thank Savina Yana for the selection of games.
ring toss
Empty bottles and bottles of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are lined up tightly on the floor. Participants are asked to put a ring on the bottle from a distance of 3 m. The one who manages to put the ring on a full bottle takes it as a prize. The number of throws for one participant must be limited.
The ring is cut out of thin cardboard. Ring diameter - 10 cm.
In a plate
The game is played while eating. The leader calls any letter. The goal of the rest of the participants is to name the object with this letter, which is currently in their plate, before others. Whoever names the subject first becomes the new leader. The driver, who said the letter for which none of the players could come up with a word, receives a prize.
It is necessary to prohibit the driver from always calling the winning letters (e, and, b, b, s).
sweetie
The participants are seated at the table. Among them, a driver is chosen. Players pass candy to each other under the table. The task of the driver is to catch one of the players in the transfer of candy. The one who is caught becomes the new driver.
Crocodile
The players are divided into two teams. The first team chooses some concept and shows it in pantomime, without the help of words and sounds. The second team tries to guess what they are shown from three attempts. Then the teams switch roles. The game is played on interpec, but you can count points for guessing pantomimes.
It is possible to guess: individual words, phrases from famous songs and poems, proverbs and sayings, popular expressions, fairy tales, names of famous people. The concept can be shown by one or several people.
joke test
This test can be conducted with the participation of all those present. Participants are given pens and sheets of paper. On the sheets, they must write certain abbreviations in a column. Opposite each of them, participants are asked to write a line from a song or poem.
After everyone completes the task, the meaning of incomprehensible abbreviations is reported and each participant can find out for himself and show the table neighbors the results at the specified moment (determined by a line from the song).
You can come up with any abbreviations, the main thing is that they correspond to the theme of the holiday. In order for the entertainment not to drag on, three to five moments are enough.
For example, to celebrate the results of the past year, you can offer the following names of moments and their abbreviations:
PDG (first day of the year),
PNG (first week of the year),
SG (mid-year),
NDOG (one week before the end of the year),
IP (total profit),
LR (best employee), LMF (best company manager), PIG (year-end bonus). KTU (labor participation rate), etc.
What to do, if…
Participants are offered to consider difficult situations from which they need to find an original way out. The participant who, in the opinion of the audience, will give the most resourceful answer, receives a bonus point.
Situation examples:
What to do if you lose your employees' wages or public money at the casino?
What to do if you are accidentally locked in the office late at night?
What to do if your dog ate an important report that you have to present to the director in the morning?
What to do if you are stuck in an elevator with the CEO of your firm?
Accuracy
For a competition in accuracy, it is best to use the factory-made Darts game.
An easier option is to throw markers or felt-tip pens (with an open cap) from a distance of 3-5 at a target drawn on a piece of paper attached to the wall. The most accurate participant receives a prize point.
The marker should be designed for drawing only on paper, then it will be easy to wash off any traces of it with alcohol.
best toast
The facilitator informs the participants that, without a doubt, a real man should be able to drink properly. However, the purpose of the competition is not to drink more than others, but to do it most gracefully.
After that, each participant receives a glass of drink. The contestants take turns toasting and drinking the contents of the glass. The one who completes the task best of all receives a bonus point.
best compliment
Since a real man must be gallant and be able to find an approach to woman's heart, in this competition, participants compete in uttering compliments to the fair sex.
The one whose compliment women like more than others receives a prize point.
We all have ears
The players become in a circle. The host says: "Each of us has hands." After that, each participant takes his neighbor on the right for left hand and with the words "We each have hands," the players move in a circle until they make a full turn. After that, the host says: “Everyone has necks,” and the game is repeated, only now the participants hold their right neighbor by the neck. Next, the facilitator lists the various parts of the body, and the players move around in a circle, holding the named part of their neighbor on the right and shouting or humming: "Everyone has ..."
The enumerated parts of the body depend on the imagination of the host and the degree of looseness of the players. For example, you can list arms (separately right and left), waist, neck, shoulder, ears (separately right and left), elbows, hair, nose, chest.
Dancing on the ice
Each pair of participants is given a newspaper. They must dance in such a way that none of the partners step on the floor outside the newspaper. At each signal from the leader, the newspaper is folded in half and the dance continues. The music changes all the time. If any of the partners left the newspaper during the dance, the couple is eliminated from the competition. The last pair left in the game receives a prize.
Auction "Pig in a Poke"
In between dances, you can hold an auction in the dark. The facilitator shows the participants the lots wrapped in wrapping paper so that it is not clear what is inside. To provoke the audience, the presenter in a comic form announces the purpose of this item.
The auction uses real money, while the initial price of all lots is quite low. The participant who offered the highest price for the item redeems it.
Before being handed over to a new owner, the item is unwrapped to satisfy the curiosity of the public. It is advisable to alternate funny and valuable lots in order to increase the excitement of the public.
Examples of lots and applications:
Without it, we will not be happy with any feast. (Salt)
Something sticky. (Lollipop candy or lollipop packed in a large box)
Small that can become big. (Balloon)
An essential item for a business person. (Notebook)
An item for those who want to leave their mark. (Set of colored crayons)
Cold, green, long ... (Bottle of champagne)
An essential attribute of civilized life. (toilet paper roll)
Short-lived joy. (Box of chocolates)
A simulator for those who want to learn how to put a good face on a bad game. (Lemon)
Gift from Africa. (Pineapple or coconut)
Bombers
Two or three glass jars and metal money are required for the game (it is advisable to prepare a trifle in advance, not hoping that the participants will find it themselves).
Those wishing to take part in the competition are divided into two or three teams. Each team receives a glass jar and the same number of coins (at least three for each participant).
The leader marks the start line, at a distance of 5 meters from which he places the banks. The task of the participants is to hold a coin between their thighs, go to their jar and lower the coin into the jar without using their hands. The team that has thrown the most coins into the bank receives a prize.
Ball under the chin
Two teams are selected, which stand in two lines (in each alternation: a man, a woman) facing each other. The condition is that the players must keep the ball under their chin, during the transfer it is impossible to touch the ball with their hands in any case, while it is allowed to touch each other in any way, so as not to drop the ball.
Dress up the lady
Each lady holds a ribbon twisted into a ball in her right hand. The man takes the tip of the ribbon with his lips and, without touching his hands, wraps the ribbon around the lady. The winner is the one with the best outfit, or the one who completes the task faster.
resourceful guests
Several couples are invited. Each participant in the game is blindfolded. Then several clothespins cling to different parts of the clothes. At the signal of the leader, you need to remove all clothespins from your partner or partner. The pair that completes the task faster wins the competition.
Where to invest money?
The host calls two pairs (in each pair, a man and a woman): “Now you will try to open a whole network of banks as quickly as possible, investing only one bill in each. Get your initial deposits! (Gives money-wrappers to couples). Banks for your deposits can serve as pockets, lapels, and all secluded places. Try to arrange your deposits as soon as possible, open as many banks as possible. Get ready, let's get started!" The facilitator helps the pairs to complete the task, after 1 minute the facilitator sums up the results. Host: How many bills do you have left? And you? Fabulous! All money is invested in the cause! Well done! And now I will ask the women to change places and withdraw the entire amount from the accounts as soon as possible. Open banks, withdraw money! Attention, let's get started! (Music sounds, women seek money from other people's partners).
feed me
Guests are divided into pairs. Each pair contains a man and a woman. The task of each pair is to unfold and eat the candy that the leader will give by joint efforts without the help of hands. The first couple to do so wins.
Pass the card
Arrange the guests in a line "boy" - "girl" - "boy" - "girl". Give the first player in the line a regular playing card. The task is to pass the card from one player to another, holding it in the mouth. Do not use hands. You can complicate the task, and after each transfer, the host tears off a piece of the card. In this game, guests can be divided into teams and arrange a team competition.
kisses
The host calls two men and two women into the game. It is up to you to decide how best to distribute pairs of players - according to belonging to the same gender or the opposite. Then, blindfolding two participants, the host asks them questions, pointing to the one he wants to. “Tell me, where will we kiss? Here?". And he shows, for example, on the cheek (you can ears, lips, eyes, hands, etc.). The facilitator asks questions until the blindfolded participant says “Yes”. Then the facilitator asks: “How many times? So many?". And he shows on his fingers - how many times, each time changing the combination, until the player says: "Yes." Well, and then, having unleashed the participant's eyes, he is forced to do what he agreed to - for example, kiss the man's knee eight times.
The game is a joke
There will be no winners and losers in this game, this game is a joke to make guests laugh. It invites two participants - a man and a woman. The rules of the game are explained to the man - "now the lady will sit on this sofa and take a sweet candy in her mouth, and your task is to blindfold find this candy without the help of your hands and take it with your mouth too." The whole comedy of the situation lies in the fact that as soon as a man is blindfolded, a man is placed on a sofa or couch instead of the promised lady. Believe me, how long your chosen gentleman will try to find candy from the "lady", so many guests will laugh heartily.
I love - I don't love
The host asks all the guests sitting at the table to name what they like and what they don’t like about the neighbor on the right. For example: "I love the ear of my neighbor on the right and I don't like the shoulder." After everyone calls it, the host asks everyone to kiss what they like and bite what they don't like. A minute of stormy laughter is provided to you.
With closed eyes
Wearing thick mittens, you need to determine by touch what kind of person is in front of you. Guys guess girls, girls - guys. You can feel the whole person
Do not laugh
Players squat in a circle (woman-man-woman). Everyone is warned that it is impossible to laugh (the presenter is allowed). The host “solemnly” takes his right neighbor (neighbor) by the ear. Everyone else around the circle should do the same. When the circle is closed, the host takes the neighbor on the right by the cheek (nose, knee ....), etc. Those who laughed drop out of the circle. The rest wins.
The match cycle
The company becomes at the rate of MZHMZHMZHMZH in a circle, take a match, cut off the tip with sulfur ... The first person takes the match with his lips and passes it in a circle from person to person until the circle passes. After that, the match is cut off (about 3 mm) and the process is repeated ... And so on until a piece of 1 mm in size remains.
Sweeties
It is desirable that an equal number of M and F participate, who sit in a circle according to the MZHMZH scheme ... A baby / doll / toy / etc. is taken. Each of the players says in turn: “I kiss this baby there”, - and names the place, where to kiss him. You can't repeat. When it comes to the fact that someone cannot name a new place to kiss, everyone takes turns fulfilling their last request with a neighbor (neighbor). Taking a certain amount of alcohol before (during) the game is only welcome.
Colors
The players become in a circle. The host commands: "Touch the yellow, one, two, three!" Players as quickly as possible try to take hold of the thing (object, part of the body) of the other participants in the circle. Who did not have time - leaves the game. The host repeats the command again, but with a new color (object). The last one left wins.
pin
Reminiscent of game 5 (With clothespins), but a little more frank ... (4-8 people). Pins are taken (the number is arbitrary, usually approximately equal to the number of players), everyone except the leader is blindfolded, then the leader clings these pins to the participants (arbitrarily - you can do everything on one, you can on different ones) - then, naturally, the participants try to find them on each other . Moreover, if a person knows that he has a pin on him (for example, he felt how they clung to him), then he is obliged to be silent (you can’t look for pins on yourself). Since often the pins are hidden behind the lapels of the sleeves, on the back of the clothes, on the socks from the side of the soles, etc., the process of finding them is usually quite fun.
Erotic train
Part of the company remains outside the door, from where they are called one by one in the order of "boy-girl". Everyone who enters sees a picture: there is a column of people (“boy-girl”), depicting a train. The host announces: “This is an erotic train. Train departs". The column moves off and, depicting the movement of the train, makes a circle around the room. The host says: "Stop (such and such)." The train stops. After that, the first car kisses the second, the second - the third, and so on until the end of the train. After that, the person who entered is invited to take a place at the end of the composition. Leading: "The train is leaving!". Make a second circle around the room. Leading: "Stop (such and such)." Then - as usual: the first car kisses the second, the second - the third. But, when it comes to the last one, suddenly the penultimate one, instead of a kiss, makes a grimace and rushes at the last one with a cry. Not expecting such a disappointment, the last car can only hold a grudge against the newcomer.
Card
One playing card is required. Easily replaced by a calendar card or any suitable size cardboard. Before the start of the game, everyone is invited to learn how to hold the card in a vertical position with their lips by drawing in air. I'll explain in more detail. Make your lips "tube", as in a kiss. Attach the card to your lips, as if kissing its center. Now, drawing in air, release your hands, trying to hold the card so that it does not fall. After 3-5 minutes of exercise, almost anyone manages to hold the card for at least a couple of seconds. So, sit in a circle in the order of "boy-girl". And thus, alternately holding the card on both sides, pass in a circle. A special revival is caused by an accidental fall of the map :). You can play for speed, for time, for departure. The last option seemed to be the most preferable.
Extra dead
The game is built on the principle of the children's game "Extra dropped out." Of the guests, 5-6 people are invited to participate in the competition. Large glasses (or glasses) are placed on the table, one less than the number of participants. Vodka, cognac, wine (whatever you want) is poured into glasses. At the command of the facilitator (for example, clapping their hands), the participants begin to walk around the table. As soon as the host gives a prearranged signal (the same clap), the participants need to grab one of the glasses and immediately drink its contents. The one who did not have enough glasses is out. After that, one glass is removed from the table, the rest are filled, and the game continues in the same way as described above. The main thing is that the glasses should always be one less than the number of players. The game ends when either of the two remaining participants drinks the last glass. In the absence of snacks and sufficiently capacious glasses, the finale looks indescribable, since it is usually difficult to call it walking around the table.
Pencil
Teams in which men and women alternate (3-4 people) must pass a simple pencil from first to last, and it is passed sandwiched between the nose and upper lip of the players! Naturally, you can’t touch a pencil with your hands, but you can touch everything else with your hands. “A heartbreaking sight”, especially if the people have already taken a certain amount of alcohol.
Zoo
A game for older preschool children, but at parties it goes with a bang. 7-8 people participate, each chooses an animal for himself and shows the others the characteristic movement of this animal. This is how "acquaintance" happens. After that, the host from the side selects the starter of the game. That one must show "himself" and another "animal", this "animal" shows itself and someone else, and so on until the moment someone makes a mistake, i.e. will show another "animal" incorrectly or will show the one that was eliminated. The one who makes the mistake is out. The game ends when two remain.
Composition
The host distributes to everyone a blank sheet of paper and a pen (pencil, felt-tip pen, etc.). After that, writing begins. The facilitator asks the first question: “Who?”. The players write the answer to it in their sheets (the options may be different, to whom it comes into their heads). Then they fold the sheet so that the inscription is not visible and pass the sheet to the neighbor on the right. The facilitator asks a second question, for example: "Where?". The players again write an answer to it and again fold the sheet in the above way, and again pass the sheet. This is repeated as many times as desired, until the host runs out of imagination for questions. The meaning of the game is that each player, answering the last question, does not see the results of previous answers. After the end of the questions, the sheets are collected by the host, unfolded, and the resulting essays are read out. It turns out very funny stories, with the most unexpected characters (from all kinds of animals to close friends) and plot twists..
In bags around the Christmas tree
2 people compete. They become bagged and kicked. The top of the bags is held by hand. On a signal, they run around the Christmas tree in different directions. The one who runs faster wins. The game continues with the next couple.
Hockey
Santa Claus turns his back to the tree. This is the gate. Participants, 2 - 3 people, take sticks and try to score a goal against Santa Claus.
Carry a snowball in a spoon
2 players participate. They are given in their mouths a spoon with a cotton ball in it. On a signal, they scatter in different directions around the Christmas tree. The winner is the one who comes running first and does not drop the snowball from the spoon.
Who will get more snowballs
They play in twos. Snowballs from cotton wool are scattered on the floor. Participants are blindfolded and given a basket. On a signal, they begin to collect snowballs. The one with the most snowballs wins.
Felt boots
Large boots are placed in front of the Christmas tree. Two are playing. On a signal, they run around the Christmas tree from different sides. The winner is the one who runs around the Christmas tree faster and puts on boots.
Give the snowman a nose
2 coasters are placed in front of the Christmas tree, large sheets with the image of snowmen are attached to them. Two or more people participate. They are blindfolded. On a signal, they must reach the snowmen and stick their nose (it could be a carrot). Others help with words: to the left, to the right, below, above ...
Catch a snowball
Several couples are involved. Participants stand facing each other at a distance of approximately 4 meters. One has an empty bucket, the other has a bag with a certain amount of "snowballs" (tennis or rubber balls). On signal 1, the participant throws snowballs, and the partner tries to catch them with a bucket. The pair that finishes the game first and collects the most snowballs wins.
The most sensitive
Only women participate in the competition. Participants stand facing the audience. Behind each is a chair. The facilitator discreetly places a small object on each chair. On command, all participants sit down and try to determine what kind of object is under them. Looking and using hands is prohibited. The one who decides first wins.
Chunky Lipslap
Props: a bag of sucking sweets (such as "Barberry"). 2 people are nominated from the company. They begin to take turns taking candy from the bag (in the hands of the host), put it in their mouths (swallowing is not allowed), and after each candy they call their opponent “thick-cheeked lip-slap”)) Who will stuff more candies into their mouths and at the same time say “ magic phrase”, he will win. I must say that the game takes place under the cheerful shouting and whooping of the audience, and the sounds made by the participants in the game lead the audience to complete delight!
Participants with Christmas toys go to the middle of the room (before that, you can hold a competition for making this toy from improvised material). Everyone is blindfolded and each is twisted several times around its axis. The task of each is to go in the direction where, in his opinion, the tree is located and hang a toy on it. You can't roll. If the participant has chosen the wrong path, he is obliged to hang the toy on what he "bursts into".
The winner is the one who hangs the toy exactly on the Christmas tree and the one who finds the most original place for the toy (for example, the CEO's ear).
Frosty breath. Before each participant, a snowflake cut out of paper of a sufficiently large size is placed on the table. The task is to blow off your snowflake so that it falls from the opposite edge of the table. It is held until everyone has blown away their snowflakes. After the last snowflake falls, announce: “The winner was not the one who first blew off his snowflake, but the one who was the last, because. he has such frosty breath that his snowflake "froze" to the table.
Chief Accountant
On a large sheet of whatman paper, various banknotes are scattered around. They must be quickly counted, and the account must be kept as follows: one dollar, one ruble, one mark, two marks, two rubles, three marks, two dollars, etc. Whoever counts correctly, without getting lost, having reached the far banknote, is the winner.
Storyteller
Guests are reminded of the plots of famous Russian fairy tales and are invited to compose and tell new versions - in the genre of detective story, love story, tragedy, etc. The winner will be determined by the guests with the help of applause.
two oxen
A long rope is put on the participants of the competition like a team, and each of the two participants tries to “drag” the opponent behind him, in his direction. At the same time, everyone tries to reach the prize, which is located half a meter from each player.
Horror
The conditions are as follows - there are five eggs in the cassette. One of them is raw, warns the presenter. The rest are boiled. It is necessary to break the egg on the forehead. Whoever gets raw is the brave one. (But actually, the eggs are all boiled, and the prize is just the last participant - he consciously ran the risk of becoming a laughingstock.)
most attentive
2-3 people play. The host reads the text: “I will tell you a story in a dozen and a half phrases. As soon as I say the number three, take the prize immediately. Once we caught a pike, gutted it, and inside we saw small fish, and not one, but as many as seven. “When you want to memorize poems, do not memorize them until late at night. Take it and repeat it once or twice at night, and preferably 10. “The hardened guy dreams of becoming an Olympic champion. Look, don’t be cunning at the start, but wait for the command: one, two, march!”. “Once I had to wait for a train at the station for 3 hours ...” (if they don’t have time to take the prize, the presenter takes it). “Well, friends, you didn’t take the prize when you had the opportunity to take it.”
sea wolf
The game is played by two teams of two people. The host gives the task: “If there is a strong wind at sea, the sailors know one trick - they tie the ribbons of the peakless cap under the chin, thereby tightly fixing them on their heads. Peakless cap - one per team. Each player executes the command with one hand.
Diver
Players are invited to put on fins and look through the binoculars from the back side to follow the given route.
Pass the hat
All participants stand in two circles - internal and external. One player has a hat on his head, it needs to be put in its own circle, there is only one condition - to transfer the hat from head to head without touching it with your hands. The team in which the player number one is again in the hat wins.
break the pot
A pot is hung on a stake (you can put it on the ground or on the floor). The driver is blindfolded and given a stick. The task is to break the pot. To complicate the game, the driver can be "confusing": before giving a stick, circle around him several times.
Cheerful monkeys
The host says the words: “We are funny monkeys, we play too loudly. We clap our hands, we stomp our feet, we puff out our cheeks, we jump on toes and even show tongues to each other. Together we will jump to the ceiling, we will raise our finger to the temple. We stick out the ears, the ponytail at the top. We will open our mouths wider, we will make grimaces. As I say the number 3, all with grimaces - freeze. Players repeat everything after the leader.
baba yaga
Relay game. A simple bucket is used as a mortar, 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 a bucket by the handle, and in the other hand he holds a mop. In this position, it is necessary to go the whole distance and pass the mortar and broom to the next one.
Golden Key
The participants of the game will have to portray the scammers from the Golden Key fairy tale. Two couples are called. One in each pair is the fox Alice, the other is the cat Basilio. The one who is the Fox bends one leg at the knee and, holding it with his hand, together with the Cat, who is blindfolded, embracing, overcome the given distance. The first couple to “hobble” receives a “golden key” - a prize.
Banks
The participants of the game are invited to look at a set of jars of various sizes and shapes from a distance. You cannot take them in hand. Each player has a piece of cardboard, from which they must cut the lids so that they fit exactly into the holes of the cans. The winner is the one who has more lids exactly matched the holes of the cans.
Jelly
For this contest, prepare some delicate dish - for example, jelly. The task of the participants is to eat it as quickly as possible using matches or toothpicks.
Harvesting
The task of the players of each team is to transfer oranges to a certain place as quickly as possible without the help of hands.
Discoverer
First, the contestants are invited to “discover” a new planet - inflate balloons as quickly as possible, and then “populate” this planet with inhabitants: quickly draw little figures of men on the ball with felt-tip pens. Whoever has more “inhabitants” on the planet is the winner!
cooks
Each team has one member. We need people who are good cooks. For a certain time, it is necessary to draw up a festive menu, the names of dishes in which begin with the letter "H". Then, one participant from the team will come to the table and will announce their list in turn. Whoever says the last word wins.
Make your neighbor laugh
A leader is chosen at random. His task is to perform such an action with a neighbor on the right so that one of those present laughs. For example, the host takes his neighbor by the nose. Everyone else around the circle should do the same. When the circle is closed, the host again takes the neighbor, now by the ear, knee, etc. Those who laughed drop out of the circle. The winner is the last remaining participant.
Broken phone
Simple but very fun game known since childhood. One of the guests quickly and indistinctly, in a whisper, says a word to the neighbor on the right. He, in turn, whispers what he heard to his neighbor in the same manner - and so on in a circle. The last participant stands up and loudly pronounces the word passed to him, and the one who started the game says his own. Sometimes the result exceeds all expectations. A variant of this game is “Associations”, that is, the neighbor does not repeat the word, but conveys an association with it, for example: winter is snow.
Table run with obstacles
For the game, you will need cocktail tubes, tennis balls (for lack of it, you can crumple napkins) according to the number of participants in the race.
Preparation: routes are prepared on the table according to the number of participants, i.e. they put glasses in a row at a distance of 30-50 cm from each other, their bottles are p. Players with a straw in their mouth and a ball are ready to start. At the signal of the leader, the participants must, blowing through the tube onto the ball, lead it along the entire distance, bending around oncoming objects. The first player to reach the finish line wins. The task can be complicated by inviting guests to blow on the ball with an enema or syringe.
The main thing is that the suit sits
To play, you will need a large box or bag (opaque), which contains various items of clothing: underpants size 56, bonnets, bras size 10, glasses with a nose, etc. funny things.
The host invites those present to update their wardrobe by pulling out some item from the box, on the condition that they do not remove it for the next half hour.
At the signal of the host, the guests pass the box to the music. As soon as the music has stopped, the player holding the box opens it and, without looking, takes out the first thing that comes across and puts it on. The view is amazing!
And in my pants...
Before the game, blanks are made (cutting newspaper headlines, and heading topics can be very diverse. For example: “Down and Feather”, “Competition Winner”, etc.).
The cutouts are placed in an envelope and run in a circle. Whoever accepts the envelope says loudly: “And in my pants ...”, then takes out a clipping from the envelope and reads it out. The resulting answers are sometimes very funny. The wittier the clippings, the more fun the game.

The central figure of any wedding is the newlyweds. Guests say a lot of warm wishes, compliments, give gifts. The newlyweds can thank the guests for this not only with delicious food, but also with interesting contests. And there are prizes for contests.
What to hide - it is the opportunity to receive a gift that motivates many to participate in them. The variety of possible rewards for contests is beyond description. So let's talk about what they can be, how to find good prizes and not spend a fabulous amount on it.
Everyone loves to receive prizes, because everyone is pleased that he was encouraged for something, albeit purely symbolically. Incentives can be tangible or intangible..
The first option is the most popular. Of course, this is a separate expense item, but it is much more pleasant for guests to take a present with them, which will remind them of a solemn event. No one says that as prizes you need to buy expensive things, enough cute little things. The main value is not in the gift itself, but in its meaning, which the toastmaster informs the winner of the competition.
When choosing material prizes, many newlyweds have doubts about their appropriateness. For example, it may seem that giving soap bubbles to an adult respectable man is absolutely ridiculous and can offend him. This is partly justified opinion, so you should choose gifts depending on the age and social status of the guests.
Intangible prizes, even the smallest ones, can encourage even inactive guests to take part in. An original and interesting promotion will definitely not go unnoticed. The main thing is to present it correctly.
Intangible prizes may include:
Such "gifts" require the manifestation of imagination, and also save the budget.
So what to choose - tangible or intangible prizes? Of course, both options have the right to exist. Guests still come to the wedding, first of all, not for prizes, but in order to congratulate the newlyweds. On the other hand, the original present will be a pleasant reminder of this solemn event, which the guest will take with him. Some gifts can be very useful in everyday life. And, what to hide, even in the most comic competition it is pleasant to be a winner.
When choosing wedding prizes, newlyweds often make mistakes. The first and most common of these is buying the same gifts for all guests.. Think for yourself, would you be interested in participating in the competition if you knew in advance that you would receive the same gift for it as the other person? Of course not, it is much more interesting when the intrigue is preserved.
The second mistake is too expensive gifts.. Of course, the newlyweds buy them with the best of intentions, trying to present something useful to the guests. However, this can put the person in an uncomfortable position. When for the most ordinary competition he receives, for example, a portable speaker, bewilderment may arise. A person will involuntarily begin to consider himself indebted to you. Therefore, prizes should be chosen more or less cheap. The main thing is to pick up even the simplest trinket with your soul. 
When buying gifts, you should take care of their relevance. Knives, mirrors, watches, and the like are completely unsuitable as a gift, because they have a certain symbolic meaning, and many guests may not like it. Also, when choosing gifts, consider whether they will offend people's cultural or religious sensibilities.
Gifts "for show" is also a very bad idea. The choice of a present should be taken very carefully, show imagination, and not buy what first came to hand. It is best when you already have a list of competitions ready, and you choose prizes specifically for each of them.
Prizes for wedding contests can be anything, as long as they are appropriate. You should buy presents in advance so that on the last day you do not waste time shopping. 
However, newlyweds do not always decide which prizes to buy. Quite often, the choice is entrusted to the toastmaster. In this case, be sure to check out the list of contests and prizes so that there are no unpleasant situations.
Gifts for wedding contests can be sold even in the nearest supermarket. Your own imagination will help in choosing them. For example, a chocolate bar can become a pleasant prize if you give it to a guest with a wish for a sweet life. Go to the nearest hardware store and you will see good prizes there too. For example, a set of hair bands can be a great gift in competitions designed specifically for girls.
Important! Don't donate low quality items. Even if the gift is very cheap, it should look decent. There are a huge number of things that can be bought for a ridiculous amount, but beat so that all guests want to get such a thing.
And if you go to the store of low prices, which are now almost everywhere, a huge scope for creative ideas opens up. Here are some of the most simple examples things that can serve as prizes for contests:
Many of the listed souvenirs cost less than 100 or even 50 rubles.
If you give alcohol, then only good. However, not all newlyweds can afford a bottle of expensive cognac, and it is inappropriate to give too expensive gifts. It is optimal to give small bottles (about 200 ml each) good alcoholic drinks, it is inexpensive and quite convenient. If you really want to donate a large bottle, you should make a special contest for this, where this prize will be a worthy reward.
If you give guests a delicious candy, a small cake or a lollipop as a prize, it will all be simply eaten, especially if the award is given for. It turns out that the guest will not even take anything with him from the wedding, he will only have time to feel the taste of the edible prize.
Note! If you give edible prizes, then only those that you can’t eat right away, so that the guests have at least something to remember your holiday.
For example, a jar of jam would be a good gift, which, moreover, the presenter will be able to beat correctly. Here are some more examples of sweet gifts:
Handmade gifts are not always good. Firstly, handmade can be quite expensive, then it falls into the category of inappropriate gifts that will embarrass the guest. Secondly, a handmade gift made unprofessionally is also unlikely to be appreciated. An exception is if it has some kind of emotional coloring, for example, it was made by a child specifically as a prize.
But, despite these shortcomings, there are plenty of excellent souvenirs among handmade prizes:
Photos as a prize will be nice to take with you to all guests. These do not have to be photos from the wedding, you can also use pictures of memorable moments taken earlier. 
One of the options is photos of the newlyweds.. Please note that only close relatives or friends will be pleased to receive prizes with such photos, others may not appreciate such a gift. Photos do not have to be printed at all, you can put them on any souvenirs, for example, magnets.
Another option is to give funny photos to guests.. These should be personalized gifts meant for specific people. Photos can show significant moments or just some funny shots. Try to choose a photo so as not to offend a person. In this case, contests need to be guessed for specific people. You can entrust it to the toastmaster.
Gifts for a wedding with images can be very different, it is not at all necessary to put photographs of the newlyweds or guests on them. They may also have original inscriptions or congratulations. Texts can be universal or intended for a specific guest. You can put inscriptions on pens, mugs, T-shirts and other things.
Also prizes may have some kind of symbolism designed specifically for the event. Of course, the facilitator should explain to everyone the meaning of the symbols.
Various cool pictures and inscriptions look great on prizes. Funny picture sure to cheer up the guests and enliven the event. The main thing is that the picture should not be offensive, vulgar or offensive. 
Presentations with images can be made in the form of predictions. Then you can arrange not a competition, but a comic fortune-telling. For example, come up with good wishes which every guest would be pleased to receive.
You can also put a text on the prize stating that it was made at your wedding, the date of the event and the venue. Of course, it should not be simple, but beautifully designed text.
In any event program with competitions, it does not hurt to add a little humor. You can laugh not only during the competition itself, but also at the gift that is due for it. Examples of cool prizes:
What gifts are usually given for contests? Most of the time things are completely normal. But some newlyweds do not want to give something standard, but want to present original prizes to guests. Such things can also be found for very little money:
Besides, original prizes may be related to some topic. If the wedding itself is themed, you can attach gifts for guests to this. For example, the book “Memoirs of a Geisha” can be an original prize at a Japanese-style wedding.
Another unexpected gift is a gourmet book. Each country has unusual dishes that are worth trying. This book has a whole list of such dishes with their description and country of origin. Such a prize can motivate a person to gastronomic discoveries and he will definitely like it. 
Of course, there can be much more original, beautiful and unusual prizes for a wedding. These are just a few examples of what you can give. Please note that Original gifts are often much more expensive than normal items. and they are much more difficult to find, so think in advance where you will look for such prizes.
Ordinary gifts are usually wrapped, but is it worth it to do the same with prizes for wedding contests? If the item is already packed, of course not. In addition, packaging is an extra cost. If the item is already so beautifully packaged, it is simply impractical to invent an additional wrapper for it.
Important! Under no circumstances should prizes be packaged in ordinary plastic bags, even if they look decent. It’s better not to wrap them in anything at all, but to give them just like that.
But there are things that are impractical to give without packaging. For example, cakes Christmas decorations fragile items. You can come up with original boxes for them, buy beautiful little gift bags or wrap them in paper. Don't buy overpriced packaging., because the prizes themselves are usually cheap too. Items packed, for example, in craft paper, colored cardboard gift bags or bright boxes with ribbons look very stylish.
Packaging is also an important part of the gift, if it is supposed to be, then it should look decent. 
Several Yet interesting ideas for gifts to guests - see with your own eyes and evaluate:
You need to choose gifts that are not too expensive, but useful and of high quality. It is better to do this in advance so that the entire set of prizes for competitions is available in advance, then it will be easier to think over the program. Each thing must necessarily come up with some meaning and hand it to the person with the right words., then even the cheapest trinket will become a welcome prize, and your original approach will encourage guests to participate in contests.
funny, funny contests will allow you to have a good rest and have fun at the New Year's party. For hosts who are entrusted with organizing the entertainment part, we offer original selection games, contests and quizzes for the scenario of a festive corporate party!
To make the New Year holiday more successful, we have made for you a selection of the most interesting contests and fun.
To begin with, we propose to include cool contests at the table in the program of the New Year's corporate party at work.
Attributes: small pieces of paper, pens (or pencils).
Before sitting at the festive table, guests receive a small piece of paper and write what gift they would like to wish themselves in the new year. This could be, for example, new flat, car, dog, travel, money, lover…
The sheets are folded into a tube and placed in a beautiful box, a hat ... At some point in the evening, the presenter asks everyone to pull out an arbitrary sheet and find out what good Santa Claus has prepared for him for the next year. Everyone has different desires, so it will be fun! And the wish will come true if you save the piece of paper until the next holiday, and then tell about what has come true.
The leaves can be attached with threads to a rope / fishing line and then, as once in childhood, blindfolded with scissors, cut off your wish. Another variation is to tie notes to balloons and distribute to those present.
Another game about desires. But this time without attributes.
5-7 people are called. They take it in turns to name their wish for the next year. You need to speak quickly, without delaying the queue! Stopping for more than 5 seconds - the player is out. We play until victory - until the last player! (Small prize possible).
When guests get bored at the height of the feast, invite them not only to fill their glasses, but to say a toast or congratulations to all those present.
There are two conditions - each speech must be one sentence long and begin with the letters of the alphabet in order!
For example:
The funniest moment is when the letters e, e, y, y, s come into play.
Game variant: each next toast begins with the last letter of the previous congratulation. For example: “I am very glad if you support me with applause! “And all the best to you…” For complication, you can prohibit starting a toast with prepositions, conjunctions and interjections.
Those who wish during the evening must write, and then present to the audience a ditty, in which there are New Year's words or topics pre-set by the presenters. It could be " New Year, Santa Claus, Snow Maiden.
You can compose clumsy ones - with an unrhymed last line, but maintaining the given rhythm of the ditty. Example:
hello red santa claus
you brought us gifts!
The most important - ten days
we'll just rest.
Attributes: Cards with nouns. There are 5 completely unrelated nouns written on the cards. It is advisable to include at least 1 winter word there.
The participant draws out a card, reads out the words he got and within 30 seconds (although if those present at the party are already, well, very tired, then 1 minute is possible) comes up with news from one sentence. And it should fit all the words from the card.
Nouns can be turned into other parts of speech (adjectives, verbs, adverbs ...) and changed as you like, and the news must certainly be interesting and funny.
The news can begin with the words "Sensation!"
For example:
Try this: it will be even more interesting if you prepare a lot of cards, where one different word will be written, and the players themselves will draw out the 5 words they got.
Fun guaranteed!
The game does not require any improvised means! But requires a sufficient degree of emancipation or relaxed relations in the team.
The host invites everyone present to name which part of the body (you can wear clothes) they like the person sitting on the left, and which one they don’t like. For example: "My neighbor on the right has a left ear that I like and I don't like a protruding pocket."
After everyone has named and remembered what was said, the host asks to kiss (or stroke) what they like and bite (or slap) what they don’t like.
Not everyone can play, but only 6-8 brave ones are called in a circle.
This game can be played on new year holiday in the office only if all colleagues are well acquainted. Or at least everyone has a friend or girlfriend in the team.
The host thinks of a person from those present at the table. And the participants with the help of leading questions try to guess who it is.
But questions are not simple - these are associations! Whoever guesses first, wins.
Questions are like this:
Attributes: 2 cones - one painted white, the other black. If there is nothing to paint with, you can wrap them with colored woolen threads of the desired color.
The course of fun: a host is selected from the guests, who will have these two bumps. They are the signals of his answers, because he cannot speak at all. He thinks of a word, and the rest, with the help of leading questions, try to guess what he has in mind.
The whole secret is that he can only silently show: YES - this is a white bump, NO - black. If neither one nor the other, he can lift both at once.
The first one to guess wins.
Instead of cones, you can take multi-colored Christmas balls. But you have to be careful with glass ones, especially if the presenter has already drunk a couple of glasses of champagne.
Attributes of the players: a piece of paper and a pen.
The first person writes any noun on his piece of paper and speaks it quietly into the neighbor's ear. He comes up with his own association to this word, writes it down and whispers it to the next one.
This is how associations are transmitted along the chain ... The latter speaks aloud the word transmitted to him. It is compared with the original source and it is fun to find out at which link in the chain of associations the failure occurred: everyone reads out their nouns.
Any number of guests can play.
We stand in a circle, and the leader begins: he performs an action with a neighbor that will make him laugh. He can take him by the ear, pat his shoulders, tap his nose, flick his arm, touch his knee ... Everything, standing in a circle must repeat the same movement with your roommate/neighbour.
The one who laughs is out.
Then the driver makes the next movement, everyone repeats. If no one laughed, a new move. And so on until the last "Nesmeyana".
The driver reads out little-known New Year / winter quatrains. But he only speaks the first 2 lines.
The rest are invited to participate in the competition for the best rhymer.
Guests invent and rhyme the last two lines. Then the funniest and most original poet is chosen, and then the original poem is read out to the general laughter and fun.
Those who wish are given A-4 sheets with arbitrary lines and felt-tip pens. Everyone has the same image (a photocopy will help you).
The task is to complete the picture on the New Year theme.
Of course, everyone knows who in the team is best versed in painting. Here he or she will evaluate the results. Whoever has the most interest is the winner! There can be many winners - it's a holiday!
Attributes: pine or spruce cones.
Game progress: guests can either sit at the table or stand in a circle (if by this time they have been sitting too long). The task is to pass each other a bump. The condition is that it can be transmitted only by holding it on the back of two palms. Try it, it's quite difficult... But also fun!
You can also divide into equal teams, and which one will transfer its bump faster, that one won.
You will need various items such as: garlands, funny hats, scarves, beads, ribbons. socks, mittens, women's bags ... Two or three ladies who want to be in the role of Snow Maidens for a few minutes each choose a man for themselves to turn him into Santa Claus.
From items prepared in advance on the table, the Snow Maiden creates a cheerful image of their hero. In principle, this can be ended by choosing the most successful and funny model ...
The Snow Maiden can take snowflakes for herself, which will help with the "decoration" of Santa Claus and with advertising.
This is a very successful game to determine couples for subsequent New Year's competitions.
Attributes: colored ribbons in winter shades (blue, light blue, silver ...). Length 4-5 meters. It is necessary to cut the ribbons in half in advance and sew them together, confusing the halves.
3-4 pairs of players are called. The host holds a basket / box, to which there are multi-colored ribbons, the tips of which hang down.
Presenter: “In the New Year, the paths were covered with snow ... The blizzard mixed up the paths in the house of Santa Claus. We need to unravel them! Take the end of the tape you like in pairs, and pull the track towards you. The couple that draws their ribbon before the others will win a prize!”
The players choose a pair and color of the ribbon, expecting that there will be a single ribbon at the ends of the same color. But the fun lies in the fact that the ribbons are sewn differently, and the pairs are formed completely unexpected.
Everyone loves round dances: both small and large (and those who are embarrassed to admit it)!
Arrange a round dance for your guests. It is clear that it can be difficult for vacationers at a party to raise themselves to a mobile competition, so come up with something for them branded callers.
- Now those who are clinging to the train
a) wants to be rich
b) wants to be loved
c) who wants to have a lot of health,
d) who dreams of traveling to the sea, etc.
The host drives the train around the hall, it is filled and filled with guests. And when it is clear that no one else can be pulled out from the tables, dances-movements of the train are arranged (the presenter can show them) to the daring music.
Attributes: money wrappers.
Two couples are selected, each a man and a woman. It is desirable that men should be dressed in approximately the same way (if one has a jacket, then the second should be in a jacket).
— Dear women, on the eve of the New Year, and you need to have time to make a fixed deposit in the bank. Here is the money for you (each of the women is given a pack of candy wrappers). These are initial contributions. You will put them in the bank for a super term deposit. Your men are your banks. Only one condition - each "bill" in a separate cell! And pockets, sleeves, collars, lapels and other secluded places can become cells. You can make a deposit while the music is playing. Just remember where you put your money. Started!
The task is given 1-2 minutes.
- Attention! Intermediate check: who managed to make a full investment (not a single candy wrapper left in his hands) receives an additional point. All money in action!
- And now, dear depositors, you must quickly withdraw cash - after all, we know that it was a super fast deposit. You will shoot each blindfolded, but you always remember what and where you put it. Music! Started!
The trick is that men are swapped, and blindfolded women "search" someone else's partner without knowing it. Everyone has fun!
Those who wish to participate are given task cards. None of them knows in advance what they will have to face.
The host announces that the participants need to take a walk in front of everyone, depicting what is written on the cards. Here is an example list:
Tasks can be supplemented and expanded with any ideas.
Attention: it is played only once!
The facilitator invites the one who wants to portray a pantomime, takes him to a separate room and gives him a "secret" task - portray without words bear (hare or kangaroo).
Meanwhile, the host's assistant agrees with the others NOT to understand his body movements.
The volunteer returns and begins to show the selected animal with movements and gestures. The guests pretend not to understand and name anything, but not the one they are shown.
- Walks, waddling? Yes, this is a platypus (a lame fox, a tired boar)!
- Licking paw? Probably the cat washes.
Etc.
It happens that the person depicting is surprised at the misunderstanding of the guests, begins to get angry: “Are you so stupid? It's so easy!" And if he shows hellish patience, shows again and again - he has iron nerves! But it also amuses the employees gathered at the party. It's not worth pulling. When the player starts to run out of imagination and patience, you can guess the correct animal.
Can you imagine the New Year without music, songs and dances? That's right, no! For additional entertainment and fun, a lot of music competition games for the New Year's corporate party have been invented.
This is the most creative musical entertainment for the New Year's corporate evening.
Prepare musical accompaniment in advance: songs about Santa Claus, the Christmas tree, the Snow Maiden ... and simple attributes that will help the players dress up (beads, hats, felt boots, scarves ...)
The task is to make a corporate video for the song "It's cold in the winter for a little Christmas tree." We need an operator who will shoot the clip on camera.
The participants, accompanied by song accompaniment, begin to depict all the actions that are sung about: “a cowardly gray bunny jumped under the Christmas tree” - the hero jumps, “the beads were hung up” - the team hangs the beads on an impromptu live “Christmas tree”.
You can divide into two teams (employees and employees) and each will shoot their own clip. It is desirable to display the results on a large screen and compare. The winners will be awarded branded souvenirs or applause.
The players sit in a circle on chairs and begin to dance to the cheerful New Year's music-song. But these are strange dances - no one gets up!
At the command of the leader, they dance with different parts of the body:
The rest choose the coolest dance.
This is a comic game that you can play at any time of the holiday. The presenter pronounces the lines from the New Year / winter song, but with the words vice versa. The task of all is who is faster guess the original and sing it. The one who guesses is given a chip (wrapper, candy, cone ...), so that later it would be easier to calculate the winner in the entire competition.
The lines might look something like this:
— The birch has died in the steppe. - The Forest Raised a Christmas Tree.
“The old moon lingers, nothing will happen for a long time. The New Year is rushing towards us, everything will happen soon.
- White-white steam rose on the ground. - Blue-blue frost lay on the wires.
— One gray donkey, one gray donkey. - Three white horses, three white horses.
— The brave white wolf sat on the baobab tree. - A cowardly gray bunny jumped under the Christmas tree.
— Shut up, Santa Claus, where are you going? “Tell me, Snow Maiden, where have you been?”
- You read a book to me about 1 hour. I'll sing you a song about five minutes.
— The huge palm tree is hot in summer. The little Christmas tree is cold in winter.
- The weights were removed, they left the chain. - They hung the beads, stood in a round dance.
- She ran away from you, Snegurochka, wiped off a little sweet smiles. - I ran after you, Santa Claus. I shed many bitter tears.
- Oh, heat-heat, warm you up! Warm you and your camel. - Oh, frost-frost, do not freeze me! Don't freeze me, my horse.
“Your worst acquisition is me. “My best gift is you.
Attributes: we put words from New Year's songs in the cap.
The players pass it in a circle to the musical accompaniment. When the music stops, the one who received the hat at that moment takes out a card with the word and must remember / sing a piece of the song where it occurs.
You can play in teams. Then the hat is passed from representative to representative of each team. You can limit the time to complete the task and reward the team for each guess.
Not sure if your guests are so fast-thinking - write not one word, but a small phrase. Then it will be easier to remember the song!
Dynamic, but at the same time very calm and gentle dance competition.
Put on slow music and invite the couples to light sparklers and dance. The couple whose fire burns longer wins and wins the prize.
If you want to spice up the dance - choose tango!
Print the texts of famous (not necessarily even New Year's) songs and prepare musical accompaniment without words (music for karaoke).
It can be Karabas Barabas, Snegurochka, an evil policeman, a kind Baba Yaga and even your boss.
A well-known song is chosen, which all the guests begin to sing in unison.
On the command "Quiet!" sing a song to themselves. On command "Loud!" out loud again.
And since everyone sang at their own pace, the loud choir begins with different words. And so it is repeated several times, all the fun.
Team games for the New Year's corporate party will once again strengthen the team spirit and solidarity, acting as an unscheduled team building.
Attributes: 2 pairs of very large boots (or one).
This game is played around the Christmas tree or around the chairs in teams.
Those who play at the signal of the driver or the sound of music put on large felt boots and run a race around the Christmas tree (chairs). If you have only one pair of these winter boots, then let the teams compete against the clock.
With felt boots, you can still come up with many different relay races: divide into teams and run, passing them in a team to each other; carry on outstretched arms so as not to drop; put on felt boots and run backwards (in large ones it is difficult to do this), etc. Fantasize!
Attributes: "snow" clods made from crumpled paper; large spoons (can be wooden).
The course of the relay competition: two equal teams gather. At the command of the driver (or at the sound of the music), the first participants must quickly run back and forth across the room, carrying a lump in a spoon and trying not to drop it. Do not choose too long routes - just make a circle around the Christmas tree.
The difficulty is that the paper is light and strives to fly off to the floor all the time.
They play until the last comer in the team. Whoever is first wins!
Attributes: 2-3 sheets of drawing paper (depending on how many teams are playing), newspapers, magazines, glue and scissors.
In 10-15 minutes, teams must cut out words from the paper editions offered to them, stick them on a sheet and compose original congratulations present for the New Year.
It should be a fun little text. You can supplement the poster with clippings of pictures from the proposed magazines.
The most creative congratulation wins.
Offer the teams paper clips in large quantities (it is advisable to choose multi-colored plastic ones). Task: in the allotted time (5 minutes, no more), long chains are assembled to pleasant music.
Whoever ends up with “beads” longer than their opponents, that team wins.
The competition requires a little preparation. It is necessary to take a picture of the teams, print the photo on a printer and cut it into small pieces. The task of the teams is to put together a photo of their team in the minimum time.
Those who complete their puzzle faster win.
Preferably make sure the photos are large.
Two teams. Each has 4 participants and 8 balls (blue and white can be used). Each one is written capital letters SNOWMAN. The snowman "melts" and turns ... into other words.
The driver makes simple riddles, and the players build guessed words from balls with letters.
The fastest ones get points, and the ones with the most points win.
These games are suitable for a New Year's corporate party of doctors, teachers, or for a kindergarten.
This competition is exclusively for an adult company. Guests are divided into two equal teams.
At the signal of the driver and to the fervent music, the players take off parts of their clothes in order to tie a long, long rope out of them.
When the “Stop!” sounds, the visibly underdressed participants begin to measure the length of their chains of clothes.
Longest one wins!
Two participants are standing near their chest/box/basket containing different items of clothing. They are first blindfolded, and then they must put on everything from the chest as quickly as possible.
Speed and correctness are valued. Although everyone is more fun and from the fact that things are mixed up on the players.
Inventory: ice cubes from the freezer.
Several contenders for the crown of the Snow Queen are selected. They pick up an ice cube and, on command, must melt it as quickly as possible, turning it into water.
You can give one at a time, you can have several ice cubes, folding them into bowls.
The first one to complete the task wins. She is given the title of "Hottest Snow Queen".
Mixed beans, peppers, rosehips, peas lie on plates in front of two participants (you can take any ingredients). The number of grains is small so that the game does not pour for too long (you can test it experimentally before the holiday).
After the players are blindfolded, they begin to disassemble the fruits into piles by touch. Whoever gets it right first will go to the ball!
