The most fun games and competitions for the New Year. The most fun games and competitions for the New Year Competition "Mirtuoso Whistling"
Do you like to play and have fun? This means that you are already looking for new competitions for the New Year 2018, so that there are New Year games and entertainment for friends, family and children. And whoever seeks will always find. And you found it. After all, it is on this page of the site that the best ideas for celebrating the New Year - the Year of the Dog 2018 are collected. Funny games, funny competitions, interesting tasks for guests - all this and much more only here. So, let's see what's so valuable here.
Musical... bark!
Many people have an ear for music, but let there be a musical bark! So, let's see how the guests can guess the song that the dogs bark.
For the competition you need to record famous songs, but instead of words there will be dog barking. It seems simple - but try to guess!
It is best to use New Year's songs and famous hits in this competition. It will be more fun and easier. And if someone guessed the song, then everyone can bark and sing it together and record it on video.
New Year's wishes.
On New Year's Eve, everyone wishes each other a lot and everything. And sometimes the words sound banal, even though they are correct and necessary. Let's diversify this a little and arrange our own game called New Year's wishes.
To play, you need to prepare cards on which to write wishes. We put all the cards in Santa Claus's bag and the guests take turns taking out one card at a time. The host reads out the wish on it and everyone laughs at the joke together.
Examples for wishes:
Competition - who are these actors?
Many people watch films. And some people watch several films and TV series every day. Therefore, the next competition will be very useful.
In this competition, guests must guess the name of the film based on a still frame. There is always a dog in the still frame, so all films are about dogs or related to them.
Watch the video for the game:
Limited toast.
Let's move on, and here we have a funny game called limited toast. To play, you need to cut out words from magazines or write the words on cards yourself. We put all the preparations in Santa Claus's bag. We approach the first guest and invite him to take 4 pieces of paper out of the bag. He takes them out. He reads to himself and with their help makes a funny toast. The toast is short, just a couple of lines.
Incorrect facts about the New Year.
The New Year has hundreds or even thousands of traditions. And in this game we propose to change traditions and come up with a completely different new year. How? And like this.
The host asks the first guest a question:
- Why is New Year celebrated on July 31?
And the guest must explain this in all seriousness.
Next question:
- Why do they decorate a birch tree for the New Year?
Once again the guest explains this.
Further:
- Why do they fly kites into the sky on New Year's Eve?
Like the owner, like the pet.
And again a video competition. Now you have to look at the pictures and say which dog looks like its owner.
You are shown a photo of the owner, and then a choice of three photos of dogs. And you have to guess from the photo which dog is suitable for which owner.
Let's watch the competition:
Game - we're still sober!
Let's check if the guests are still sober. To do this, all guests leave the table and divide them into two teams. When the teams are assembled, you can start playing.
First, the presenter invites the teams to line up by name in alphabetical order. That is, those come first. Whose name begins with A, then B, C and so on. Whichever team figures it out first and lines up wins.
Next, the teams need to line up according to hair color from dark to light.
The next task is by age: from oldest to youngest.
And at the end, ask the teams to line up in this order: who drank more to the one who drank less.
Hares.
All guests take part in the game. Each guest is given a card with animals written on it. It can be any animal, but the second one is necessarily a hare.
Guests do not show cards to each other and do not know what is written on who. The presenter explains: he calls the name of the animal and whoever has it written on the cards shouts loudly - Happy New Year!
Everything seems simple, but then the task becomes more complicated. When the host names the animal, the guest must shout HAPPY NEW YEAR, and his neighbor on the left has time to pour him a glass.
Next, when everyone understands how to play, the presenter shouts: BUNNY! And it’s written for everyone. And then a funny performance begins, as everyone shouts HAPPY NEW YEAR and at once tries to pour alcohol into a glass.
New Year's alphabet.
We all know the usual alphabet and know. That it has 33 letters. On New Year's Eve, let's play a game called the New Year's alphabet.
Everything is simple here: the host reads out the riddles, and the guests must give the correct answer. But just be careful - the first answer is to the letter A, the second to the letter B, the third to C and so on alphabetically.
Not everyone likes to spend New Year's holidays at the table in front of the TV. Those who celebrate the New Year with a noisy crowd want especially wild entertainment. Numerous New Year competitions, entertainment and games will help create an atmosphere of fun for the New Year 2018. Below is a list of just some of the pastime options that are worth including in the event scenario.
Competitions for the New Year 2018, New Year's games and entertainment can be held outside the home. This is especially true when there is snow outside the window.
For a fun company, you can offer the following entertainment. Everyone is divided into teams. It would be better if the division is based on gender. Assignment: create a “snow gentleman” for the girls’ team and a “snow lady” for the boys’ team. The team's goal is to create an object made of snow that is as similar as possible to a real woman or man. It is important that the work of “snow” art repeats as much as possible all the graceful lines of the female body or the brutal outlines of the male.
To create a bright image, you can use clothing and accessories from men's or women's toilets. The winner will be the team that manages to create a snowman that is closest in its external qualities to the given object. Even if the team members do not have artistic talents, a good time and a lot of laughter are guaranteed for the competitors and the judges.
“We study the ABC under the Christmas tree...”
Another competition for the New Year 2018, which is worth including in New Year's games and entertainment at a corporate party, is quite simple and does not require additional equipment. The organizer of the event or Santa Claus invites those present to take part in a game for educated people. To stir up the public's interest, you can promise everyone who completes the task a small gift.
The essence of the competition is that the presenter shouts out the letters, and each of those present, in turn, must pronounce a logical and coherent phrase, close in meaning to the New Year, on the letter that fell to him. For example, with the letter B you can suggest “Drink to the New Year”, with the letter B you can say: “Be healthy!”, With M you can wish “Lots of happiness and smiles!” The most interesting thing begins when the players come across the letters Z, J, Z. To prevent guests from guessing in advance who will get which letter, you can use a hat in which pieces of paper with letters are folded.
So each guest will give himself a completely unexpected task. In order for each participant to receive a souvenir, you can walk several circles with the hat and drop more “Simple” letters into it, for which it is easy to come up with a congratulatory phrase.
Good jokes for the holiday mood
You can defuse the situation with a non-offensive, funny joke. A large box, decorated with New Year's wrapping and ribbon, is placed on a cabinet taller than a person's height. There should be confetti inside the box, and the bottom of the box itself should be removed. The object of the joke could be a guest who has just arrived. They tell him that this gift has been prepared just for him. The moment the newcomer pulls the box towards himself, multi-colored snow will pour out on him. The joke is funny and kind, it greatly contributes to the New Year's mood.
We decorate the Christmas tree
Among the competitions for the New Year 2018, New Year's games and entertainment, there may be the following activity. Guests are divided into pairs. The girls pick up a long decoration: rain, garland, tinsel, ribbon. The guy, without touching the decoration with his hands, uses his lips to wrap the garland around his partner. This can be done by simply walking around the impromptu Christmas tree. The winner will be the couple whose Christmas tree is ready faster and looks more elegant than others.
Lost pin
This competition is more suitable for established couples. Several such tandems can participate in the game. Spectators or judges must attach pins to the clothing of the woman and man of each pair as discreetly as possible. Moreover, one of the partners should have fewer pins on their clothes than the other. After this, to the music, the competitors feel each other in search of a prickly surprise.
The tandem that is the first to realize that the partner has fewer pins than himself wins. It will be especially amusing for the other guests to watch how the partner who has the most pins is looking for one that was lost on the other’s clothes.
To avoid freezing...
Several pairs of participants should go to the center of the room. They will be given thick mittens and several items of clothing. One of the couple puts on gloves, and then helps the partner not to freeze by putting on the remaining items of clothing. The fun begins when he has to fasten the zippers and buttons on his partner's clothes. The victory will be won by the team that warmed up its partner before the others.
Holiday wishes from kids
Among New Year's competitions, games and entertainment for children for the New Year 2018, you can choose the following simple competition. Competitors, in turn, voice holiday wishes. This needs to be done quickly. Anyone who thinks for more than five seconds is eliminated from the game. There can be any number of competitors in the competition. The last one will be the winner and will receive a New Year's prize.
Songs from a hat
Everyone who wants to play this game gathers around a hat or box, into which the organizers have previously placed a lot of pieces of paper with one word on each. It is desirable that the words relate to the New Year and winter. Each participant takes out one piece of paper, reads what they have written out loud and sings a song wherever that word is used. The one who cannot come up with a single song with the word given to him loses. The award is given to the one who sang all the words given to him. This New Year's competition can be used as a game and entertainment for the New Year 2018 for the family.
Who's under the mask
The presenter hides his face behind a mask to create an ambiance and imagines a person known to all participants. A New Year's variation of this fun could be wishing upon objects associated with the holiday. Those present take turns formulating questions to which the presenter can only answer yes or no. The one who pronounces the intended word takes the prize and becomes the presenter.
Holiday rhymes
The organizers of the event come up with several pairs of rhyming words in advance and write them down on pieces of paper. For example, you can write on one sheet of paper “the year is coming, brought frost”, on the other “sleigh-sami, tree-needle” and others. In order to make the game more interesting, it is better to give more time to think about the future poem. Each guest will receive papers upon entry, and the results can be shared at the festive table. Whose creation is the most successful will receive the main gift of the evening. The remaining participants will receive consolation gifts.
Buying gifts from Santa Claus
The second name for the competition is “snowball”. The organizer of the game needs to prepare a large ball of cotton wool or white cloth in advance. This “snowball” will be the main item for determining the task with which you can redeem your gift from Santa Claus.
All guests sit around the bag and pass the ball to each other, saying: “We are all celebrating the New Year. One two three four five…". The phrase ends with a task from Santa Claus. For example, “To sing a song for you” or “To dance a dance for you.” The task applies to the one who has a lump on the count of five. He must fulfill the wishes of Santa Claus, after which he receives his gift. Everyone who received his prize leaves the circle, and the game continues without him.
Children's game of Christmas trees
Among New Year's competitions, games and entertainment for schoolchildren in the new year 2018, the most interesting ones will be those that make everyone laugh. This is the game “Christmas trees are different.” The presenter gathers the children around him and says: “There are different Christmas trees: high, low, wide and narrow. Each of the words is a command. Having heard “high”, children should raise their hands, “low” - this means you need to sit down, “wide” - you need to make the round dance wider, “narrow” - the circle should become narrower.
During the process, the leader changes the order of the commands. Children must react quickly. It's funny to watch the fun bustle that reigns during this game.
Letter to Santa Claus
To begin with, the participants all come up with 12 adjectives, which they write in order on pieces of paper, after which the presenter takes out the main text of the letter to Santa Claus. It has missing adjectives that need to be filled in with those that were jointly invented.
The result is a very funny text. The source should look something like this: “...Grandfather Frost! All the...children are really looking forward to your...visit. New Year's holidays are the most... days of the year. We promise to sing...songs, perform...dances, recite...poems. We promise to... behave and receive only... grades. Grandfather, quickly open your...bag and give us...gifts. We look forward to seeing you! Your…boys and girls!”
Who didn't have time...
Some New Year's competitions, games and entertainment for the New Year 2018 are suitable only for adults. Videos from such events are especially fun to watch.
To conduct the competition you need equipment: glasses with alcohol. There should be one less of them than the competitors. The glasses are placed on a table in the middle of the room. The competitors line up near the table and, on command, begin to run to the music. When the music stops, you need to take a glass and drain it. Anyone who doesn't have enough drink is out of the fight. The fastest participant will win the competition.
Important tip! There should not be more than 5-6 players, as there will be too many rounds and the last participants can harm their health by drinking an excessive dose of alcohol.
Funny faces
This competition will allow the event photographer to take lots of fun photos. To start the competition you will need several empty matchboxes. Each of the competitors puts the box on his nose and, at the signal from the presenter, without using his hands, but only using facial expressions, tries to remove this object. The one who manages to do this first wins.
Fashionable things from Santa Claus
The organizers of the event pre-fill Santa Claus's bag with funny wardrobe items. These could be ridiculous hats, oversized underwear, dresses of outdated styles.
Participants in the fun pass the bag around in a circle. When the music dies down, the one in whose hands the bag remains takes out the first thing he comes across and puts it on himself. What follows is a dance from the loser in the new look. After which the competition continues. This funny game guarantees a lot of laughter and a good mood.
Rewinding the tapes
Couples are required to participate in the competition. The girls wrap a long garland around their waist. On command, her partner must quickly wrap the garland around his waist. Victory will go to those who cope with the task more quickly than others.
Quiet games at the table
The point of the fun is to start a phrase with the words “Next year I promise...”, and end with a very real promise in rhyme. For example:
- “...invite everyone to tea”;
- “...that I’ll change the wallpaper.”
This can be continued endlessly. Time limits will help intensify rivalry. 5 seconds should be enough to create such a poetic masterpiece. Anyone who fails to complete the task within the specified time period is eliminated from the game. The winner receives a gift from Santa Claus.
A variation of this game could be a prediction contest. All invented one-liners are written down on pieces of paper and thrown into a hat. Everyone takes out one for themselves. Written and will become a prediction for the coming year.
Another game played at the table is called debt distribution. It will require a festively decorated box or box. The presenter says that there is a sign according to which you need to enter the new year without debt. To solve this issue right now, you need to perform a special ritual. Anyone can put any amount into an impromptu piggy bank and make a wish to become richer and happier in the new year.
After this, the box is passed around and anyone who wants to puts as much money into it as they see fit. At the same time, the presenter says that the more generous the contribution, the more money the “investor” will have next year. The collection process can be accompanied by a song about money.
After the collection process has been completed, the presenter counts the amount where no one can see it. Then the competition continues. The presenter announces that someone present may become a little richer right now. Competitors have only one attempt to guess the amount that is currently collected in the box. The one who managed to get as close to the truth as possible gets all the money.
A lot of competitions, New Year's games and entertainment will help you have a fun New Year 2018 with your family. This time the fun is called “Bag of Fortunes from a Fairy Tale.” The most curious thing is that the predictions will be encrypted in the symbols of the New Year holidays.
To play you will need a firecracker, a medal, a small bottle of alcohol, a small pistol, and a banknote. There should be several such items. It is important to pack them all equally and place them in a bag. Each participant takes out one gift and reads the predictions for the next year written on the card attached to the gift.
The one who gets the banknote will get rich. The one who pulls out the gun will fight with the competitors and defeat them. The lucky owner of the firecracker will receive a pleasant surprise next year, and endless fun celebrations await the one who pulls out the bottle. The winner of the medal will gain fame and recognition.
Many New Year's competitions, games and entertainment are suitable for celebrating the New Year 2018 at school. For the celebration you need to take one small gift from each visitor to the event. It’s better if the gifts are inexpensive, fun and enjoyable. Everything is collected in a bag by Santa Claus and mixed.
Those present, in order, take the bag and say the words: “I have long wanted to give you this, but...”. After which an object is pulled out at random and announced. Next, the participant must come up with why he did not give this item to its future owner earlier. The reasons should be funny and humorous. As a result, everyone will receive a New Year's present, and the distribution of gifts will be funny.
By diversifying your holiday feast with these fun activities, you can make the holiday unforgettable, and the New Year holidays even more beautiful and bright.
Game "Dog is man's friend"
The game includes six rounds: “general information”, “dog names”, “professions and specialization of dogs”, “dictionary of dog breeds”, “dogs in fiction”, “in folk wisdom”.
Several teams are playing. The first question in each round is by lot. The time to think about an answer is no more than 10 seconds, for each correct answer there is a bonus - a “sweet bone”. If the answer is incorrect, another team (due to the opponents’ move) can earn a “bone” by giving the correct answer without additional time to think. Whichever team has the most “bones” wins.
The rules of the game may vary, they are typical for this type of game. The game is led (explains the rules, asks questions and tasks, rewards with bones) by one of the organizers of the New Year's party.
First tour. General information
1. Why does a dog stubbornly bury bones in the ground, although it receives enough food from its owner every day? (Obviously, this thousand-year-old instinct has been ingrained in the dog since those distant times when it led a wild lifestyle and had to hunt and store food for future use.)
2. Why do dogs often run with their tongues hanging out, but horses don’t? (This is due to heat exchange. Dogs’ fur retains heat well, and there are very few sweat glands in the skin. A dog can lower its body temperature by ensuring intense evaporation of saliva on the tongue, jaws and palate.)
3. What breed and what color was the dog that, according to Goethe, anticipated the appearance of Mephistopheles before Faust? (Black poodle.)
4. Does the dog see colors? (No, numerous experiments have shown that the dog has never been able to distinguish any color.)
5. Why shouldn’t you run away from an attacking dog or throw any objects at it? (All moving objects have an exciting effect on the animal, causing a desire to catch up with fleeing prey.)
6. What kind of person do they say: “Like a dog in a manger”? (About a person who does not use something himself and does not allow others to do so.)
8. What serves as a dog’s thermometer? (Nose. In a healthy dog it is moist and cold.)
9. For what purpose did one of the employees of the Swedish financial department master 20 varieties of dog barks? (For the purpose of collecting taxes for keeping dogs, whose owners assured that there were no animals in their apartment. One of the employees of the financial department of Stockholm mastered the “dog language” and, by yapping under the door, thus provoked the dog to vocalize.)
10. What groups can modern dogs be divided into according to the nature of their use? (For service, hunting and decorative ones.)
11. Do people from different countries perceive dog barking the same way? (No, people of different nationalities perceive dog barking differently: the British - “wow-wow”, Greeks and Russians - “woof-woof”, Spaniards - “guau-guau”, Germans - “awu-awu”, Poles - “ how-how”, the French - “au-au”, the Swedes - “wuv-wuv”, the Japanese - “van-wan”.)
12. Who was awarded the special Order of the Dog, which was established in 1100 in France by Baron Montmorency? (This order was awarded to the most loyal French knights.)
13. Which of the landowners described by N.V. Gogol in “Dead Souls”, became synonymous with money-grubbing, retrograde, rude and narrow-minded people? (Sobakevich.)
14. What breed was the dog described in J. Jerome’s story “Three in a Boat and a Dog”? (Fox terrier.)
16. What is the name of the science that studies dogs? (Cynology.)

Firstly, she looked as old as any dog can be, and secondly, why did it immediately occur to me, from the first time I saw her, that this dog could not be like all dogs; that she is an extraordinary dog; that there must certainly be something fantastic, enchanted in it; that this may be some kind of Mephistopheles in dog form and that its fate is connected in some mysterious, unknown ways with the fate of its owner. Looking at her, you immediately agreed that it had probably been twenty years since she last ate. At least she was like a skeleton or (what’s better?) like her master.” (F.M. Dostoevsky. Humiliated and insulted.)
15. “Then the merchant Vorotilov gathered his household and in front of everyone said to Trezorka:
“I entrust you, Trezorka, with all my entrails: guard my wife, my children, and my property!” Bring Trezorka some slop!
Did Trezorka understand his master’s praise, or did it just happen on his own, due to his dog’s nature, that the barking came out of him as if from an empty barrel - only since then he has completely lost his temper. He sleeps with one eye and looks with the other to see if anyone is creeping into the gateway; When he gets tired of galloping, he lies down, but he still rattles the chain: so, they say, if you feed the dog every day, then, what the hell, he’ll lose weight in one week! The servants will give him kicks - he sees this as a useful warning, because if you don’t hit the dog, he’ll soon forget his owner.” (M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin. Faithful Trezor.)
16. “He put two lumps of sugar in front of Lobzik and said:
- Count!
- Gough! — Lobzik answered.
- Wrong! You say one, but here there are two. What should you answer?
- Gough! - Lobzik answered again.
- “Gaf”! - Kostya mimicked him. - Where is the “gaf” here when there is “gaf-gaf” here? What's on your shoulders: a head or a head of cabbage?
- Gough! - Lobzik answered. (N. Nosov. Vitya Maleev at school and at home.)
17. “Yes! It was a dog, huge, pitch black. But none of us mortals have ever seen such a dog. Flames erupted from her open mouth, her eyes threw sparks, and flickering fire shimmered across her muzzle and nape. No one’s fevered brain could have produced a vision more terrible, more disgusting than this hellish creature that jumped out of the fog at us.” (Conan Doyle. The Hound of the Baskervilles.)
18. “And from the princess to the porch
The dog runs into her face
He looks pitifully, howls menacingly,
It’s like a dog’s heart is aching..."
(A.S. Pushkin. The Tale of the Dead Princess and the Seven Knights.)
19. “The school was outside the village near the church. When... he walked through his settlement, the dogs did not touch him, they knew him. But when he went out to other people’s yards, Zhuchka jumped out, barked, and behind Zhuchka was a big dog, Volchok.” (L.N. Tolstoy. Filipok.)
20. “A young red dog, a cross between a dachshund and a mongrel, with a muzzle very similar to a fox, ran back and forth along the sidewalk and looked around restlessly. From time to time she stopped and, crying, raising first one chilled paw, then the other, tried to understand to herself: how it could happen that she got lost.” (A.P. Chekhov. Kashtanka)
Sixth round. Dog in proverbs and sayings

The game program can continue until all the cells of the playing field are occupied by letters. If the participants’ time is limited, then it is possible to agree on a certain number of moves for the teams (5-8), after which the results will be summed up, or on a fixed temporary duration of the New Year’s fun.
The team with the most points wins.
Dog racing
As already noted, a dog has many professions. Let's once again admire their diversity by organizing a kind of dog race. Those wishing to participate in this competition line up in random order. Next, everyone, starting from the first (counting from left to right), names one of the dog professions known to him, while taking a small step forward. If on the count of “one, two, three” a new version of the dog activity is not heard, the participant remains in place. The winner is the player who managed to break away from his pursuers in this long race.
The second race in such races can be organized regarding laudatory epithets, which can be addressed in abundance to the dog.
Tell the joke
The presenter tells “dog” jokes, and those present must complete the ending.
- Your dog bit me. I demand compensation.
- For God’s sake, I’ll hold him now, and you... (bite).
On a bench in a public garden, a man plays chess with a dog. Passers-by are surprised:
- What a smart dog you have!
- Why smart? - the man is offended. — We still have... (draw).
A man came to the veterinarian:
— Tell me, can a dog have a heart attack?
“Theoretically, yes,” the veterinarian answered. - But for this you need to create for the dog... (human conditions).
- Is this the police? I ask you to protect my dog." The mailman climbed a tree in our yard and... (teasing her)!
— Does your dog allow strangers near him?
- Of course, otherwise how could she... (bite them).
“Harry, please take the letter to the post office,” the wife asks.
“In this weather, they don’t even let the dog go outside.”
- I don’t ask you... (to take the dog with you).
— Is it true that your dog can play poker?
- Yes, he is simply a virtuoso in this game.
- So he wins often?
- Unfortunately no. As soon as a good card comes to him, he starts... (wagging his tail).
One student told a friend that he would receive a million dollars if he taught his dog to talk.
- Nonsense! Who will pay you a million for a talking dog?
- Like who? A company that produces dog food. She will pay more, if only the dog... (keeps silent).
- Well, Timurovites, did you help anyone today? - asks the pioneer leader.
- But of course! We were at the station and saw a passenger catching up with a departing train. We set Rex on him, and the passenger... (caught up with his carriage).
And the variety of possibilities for carrying it out is truly magical. And even if you celebrate your favorite holiday at home and in the circle of your loved ones, it can be spent in an interesting way, you just need to think through pleasant surprises and at least a small entertainment program in advance, for the organization of which the selection we offer may help New Year's games for a friendly or home holiday "Celebrating the Year of the Dog at home". Also, these entertainments can be useful for celebrating the Old New Year. After all, one New Year is good, but two are still better! And no matter how much we laugh at ourselves, we still celebrate the ridiculous and funny Old New Year. Even just a little bit. Besides, the New Year holidays are so long that any idea will not be superfluous.

The total number of points for the competition corresponds to the number of items on the table. Each mistake is minus one point.

Dog anagrams

Dachshund- caste - taska
Poodle- great snipe

Spaniel- orange
SONG COMPETITIONS
1.Guess the melody - 1
Leading: The time has come for transformation. Now we are going to play a popular game. Different companies call it differently, but in our interpretation it will turn into a “Guess the Melody” competition. Now the teams will receive tasks, on the card there will be a line from the song. Your task is to show it using pantomime. Before performing a silent skit, you must show (on your fingers) the number of words in the phrase to your opponents. The competitors need to guess the song. To simplify the task, I will say that the following words are found in the proposed song phrases.
Topic #1: words - "old" or "vintage"
Possible options: An old piano, it is shaking all over with fear; The ancient clock is still running; The old maple knocks on the glass; The ancient waltz "Autumn Dream" is played by an accordionist; The old mill turns and turns.
Topic #2: dedicated to dogs of any age and breed
Possible options: A dog only bites because it lives as a dog; Man is a friend to dog, everyone around knows this;
To warm up, you can show an object, animal or event.
2. Guess the melody - 2
Everything is simple here: a song is encrypted in each phrase, all you have to do is guess it. The fastest and most erudite team wins.
Options for song riddles
Song about sad flower hide and seek (The daisies hid, the buttercups drooped)
Song of the Chukchi, who is trying to increase the Slavic population of the shores of the Arctic Ocean by one person. (I'll take you to the tundra)
Song about a holiday village of the St. Petersburg branch of the Academy of Sciences . (I’ll go to Komarovo for a week before the second one).
The song is about the discomfort that occurs when sodium chloride comes into contact with a damaged area of skin. (Don't rub salt in my wounds)
The song of a colorblind child who can only see one orange color. (Orange song)
The song is about a woman sculptor who surpassed Pygmalion. (I blinded you from what was)
3. Songs in a chain based on keywords
Simple option. A topic is set, for example, New Year, or a keyword (winter, holiday, snow, fairy tale - declension and transformation of nouns into adjectives is allowed) and the teams take turns singing lines (verses) without repeating. The team that stays on the course longer than the other wins.
Interesting option. This option is more complicated, but much more interesting. In this case, any words from the previous song become the “key” words. For example:
“A blizzard is sweeping along the street, my little darling is following the blizzard. You wait, wait, my beauty...” → " My dear, take me with you, there in a distant land you will call me your wife" → " Take me with you, in your day and any hour, On a long journey, in an old trouble, take me with you" → " It's time to hit the road, long road, long road, long road..." → "We are going to the city of Emerald along a difficult road, we are walking along a difficult road, not a straight road..." etc.
ABOUT A DOG'S LIFE
1. Dog portrait, or what kind of dogs are they?
Leading: Today we have already mentioned dogs more than once. And this is quite natural. The dog is the owner of the attacker, and it would not be superfluous to secure the patronage of a patron, even symbolic. Let's try, without the help of horoscopes (we'll talk about them later), to create a portrait of this very symbol. We will now hold an auction. You need to remember as many character traits of the DOG as possible, their “specialty”, say why we love them and why we call them man’s best friend.
Participants offer characteristics: loyalty, devotion, discipline, dog - protector, assistant, guard, guide, scout, seeker, artist, nanny, FRIEND. Dogs can be aggressive (angry like a dog)
Leading: From all of the above, we can conclude that our year will be stable and friendly if we do not tease... dogs. After all, to be honest, life for dogs is not all sugar, as confirmed by the common expressions: “tired as a dog”, “hungry as a dog”, and even “A DOG’S LIFE”, and not at all in a positive sense. Therefore, try to eliminate this expression from your vocabulary for at least a year. And to put an end to this unpleasant terminology, we will remember for the last time the hard life of a dog. And not just like that, but in a poetic way.
2. Literary competition "The priest had a dog"
Since childhood, we have known the sad story about the priest who had a dog, but who has heard about the poetic experiments of many great poets who wrote their poems on this sad topic? There was such a thing. Now you will hear some of these poetic samples, and then try to answer which Russian poet wrote the poems you heard (look in the document)
Competition The priest had a dog.docx
WHO IS WHO
1. If...
You and I have known each other for a long time. And it seems that we know well. Is it so? Each person has his own view of events, his own vision, his own assessments. I propose to check whether we are so open, whether we know each other well. The game "If" will help us with this.
Game conditions: The driver leaves the room, the others make a wish for someone present. Having returned, the Leader asks those present questions:
If he were a tree, what would he be like?
If it were a house, what would it be like?
If he were a hare, what would he be like?
And everything in the same spirit: a dog, a saucer, a pond, a scout, a boss, an oligarch, a controller, a president, a teacher, a bird, a fairy-tale hero, etc.
HINT FOR ORGANIZERS: There is no division into teams here, and the winners (you can get medals) can be people in the following categories:
1. The title of “Most Insightful” is given to the one who identifies the “mystery man” by asking the least number of questions.
2. The title of “Most Mysterious” will be given to the one who cannot be recognized, or the recognition will take the longest.
2. What did the stars talk about?
Our vision is important, but what if you listen to what the stars say about us? Can we guess a person based on average characteristics? In addition, there are many different ones and not all of them give the same characteristics of the same person. The Zoroastrian zodiac and the Druid horoscope are well known. But there are also fairy-tale and flower horoscopes, everyday and truthful ones, horoscopes of the Aztecs and Guardian Angels, and even automobile and fish ones! Check the word. And that's not all.
About Slavic - it’s worth mentioning separately. According to the Slavic horoscope, 2018 is the year of the Curled Hedgehog. So why do we have to hide from the Yellow Dog? However, the horoscope states that “people born under this sign have an extraordinary character. They are unpredictable even for themselves, but at the same time they express a strong desire for constancy. At the same time, they are reliable friends, and an excellent memory contributes to success in life.” any undertaking." Based on all of the above, we can assume that the Hedgehog and the Dog will be able to get along quite well in the upcoming time period.
Well, now - "Guessing game"!
HINT FOR ORGANIZERS: Since the house party is attended by relatives and friends whose birth dates are no secret, choosing a horoscope for everyone will not be difficult. Try not to use the most common horoscopes.
A. Guessing game 1
Leading: This hat contains extracts from different horoscopes, but relating to the same person. Now each of you will take out your piece of paper and try to determine who we are talking about. I note that the characteristics of the signs of various horoscopes are not given there. With the exception of one, as the astrologers themselves called it, “the shortest horoscope according to the signs of the zodiac.” The simplest characteristics are given for it, but the name of the sign is not given. Then, like others: Zoroastrian, Slavic by date of birth and Slavic by year, as well as the horoscope of evil spirits, have only the name of the sign.
I understand that after reading “Eagle, Pearl Pike, Grasshopper and Brownie” it will be quite difficult to decide on the person presented. But perhaps the characteristics from the short horoscope will give a hint?
And he says the following about the same person:
"Thinks about a lot of things
says - convincingly
does it - as it turns out"
Let's try again:
Hedgehog, Beaver - Curled up hedgehog, Mara*
And just a hint:
"He thinks it's too much
says - honestly
does - responsibly
Difficult? (Or easier?)"
Still, let's try. You can learn a lot about yourself. Very interesting!
Links to horoscopes for Guessing Games 1 and 2.docx
b. Guessing game 2. " Problematic"
Now we will try to guess the person who, according to the horoscope, solves his problems in the following way. I would like to warn you that some characteristics may seem biased. So no one says that this is the ultimate truth. More like a joke.
And although there is a grain of humor in every joke, something can make you think. Although, what is not invested, you won’t get in)))
HINT FOR ORGANIZERS: Write (or print out) the horoscope “How different zodiac signs solve their problems”, just don’t forget to replace the name of the sign with a neutral one - “this person”, “this sign”, “a person of this sign”. And don't read in chronological order.
(You can conduct a few more psychological experiments. For example, how different zodiac signs get offended, or step on a rake, and end this moment with a good family
It is necessary to do it right - with funny, active New Year's competitions. After all, it’s no secret that the main entertainment at any holiday is games and competitions.
In the Year of the Dog, preference is given to cool competitions that can amuse even the most shy guests. However, the preparation of holiday games must be taken seriously so that the competitions do not turn out too boring, or even vulgar.
qulady.ruThe editors of the publication will tell you about the most active and funny New Year's competitions for children, schools, families, groups of friends and for corporate events.
Perhaps, New Year's competitions are of particular interest for children: they will never sit at the table at the holiday. However, the shyest guys can always be stimulated with New Year's gifts.
I'm still that actor
All participants receive a card with a certain phrase, which will need to be depicted in such a way that the other guys can guess what the participant is showing. After the guys guessed what the participant was trying to show, the next one takes his place. For children, such simple and funny phrases as “dance of little ducklings”, “loser at the blackboard”, “Crocodile Gena plays the accordion” are suitable.

What's in the box?
Competition "What's in the box?" It is considered one of the most exciting games on New Year's Eve. We recommend celebrating the Year of the Dog with similar New Year's competitions: the sensible four-legged pet has always liked calm and silent entertainment.
In the competition "What's in the box?" children will have to try themselves as psychics. In the center of the room we place a chair on which we place a closed box with unknown contents. Children will have to guess what is in the box: they are allowed to approach the box, touch it, imagining themselves as magicians. It is recommended to put something in the box that will be associated with the holiday.
Christmas trees with needles
Although this competition is the most famous and perhaps boring entertainment for the New Year, it still brings more than enough fun and emotions. According to the rules of the competition, two guys are placed in the center of the room, after which they are blindfolded and ten clothespins are attached to their clothes. At the command of the leader, the participants will need to free each other from the clothespins. The first one to remove all the clothespins from his opponent wins.

New Year competitions at school
Games and competitions are no longer as interesting for schoolchildren as they are for children, but this does not mean that students cannot be interested in them. Not a single student, regardless of his age, will be able to refuse to participate in cool outdoor competitions.
The fastest dog
In the Year of the Dog, it is natural to organize games and competitions related to this four-legged pet. You can hold the “Fastest Dog” competition right at the table. The presenter selects participants, in front of whom a plate of food is placed, which, as a rule, is fed to dogs. Now the participants will have to eat the entire contents of the plate in a time without using their hands - the one who empties the plate first wins. Contests like this are especially fun at school.
Musketeers
Schoolchildren will also appreciate the game "Musketeers". An active, fun game that will intrigue even the shyest kids at school. Before the start of the competition, the presenter gives the participants two inflated long balloons for modeling, from which they will have to make helmets and swords. The guys put helmets on their heads and pick up swords, after which a kind of duel begins. The winner of the confrontation is the one who can knock the helmet off the opponent's head.
![](https://i1.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/v4-728px-make-a-very-easy-balloon-sword-step-1.jpg)
Mousetrap
“Mousetrap” is considered one of the most active and famous New Year’s competitions held at school. According to the rules of the game, the two tallest students stand in the center of the room opposite each other and act as catchers. The guys raise their hands up while other participants in the competition run around them.
“We were so tired of the mice, they chewed everything, ate everything. Let’s set up a mousetrap and catch all the mice,” the catchers say.
![](https://i1.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/maxresdefault.jpg)
At the last words, the hands of the catchers are lowered and crossed, thus forming a circle. Anyone caught in this “mousetrap” joins the catchers. The winner of the competition is the last participant who managed to avoid falling into the “mousetrap”.
New Year competitions for families
The main entertainment at a New Year's family party is games and competitions. Not only fun quizzes, but also outdoor games are suitable for families. The Yellow Dog gives preference to family New Year's competitions - positive and calm games.
Detective
According to the rules of this competition, two family members go to the center of the room. The presenter blindfolds them with blindfolds, after which he begins to hide snowflakes he had previously prepared with the inscription “2018” in the room. He then removes the bandages from the participants and they begin to look for hidden snowflakes in the room. The winner of the competition is the one who finds the largest number of snowflakes in the room (there can be from 30 to 40).
![](https://i1.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/bezymiannyi_6g9Xkqx.png)
Family drawing
Participants in the competition (4-5 people) receive a pen and a piece of paper: they will have to write down the first word that comes to their mind on paper. Then the presenter lays out whatman paper on the table, on which the participants, one by one, using markers, will have to draw what they wrote down on the piece of paper. In turn, the rest of the family will have to guess what is shown in the picture. At the end of the competition, you get a large and cool family drawing.
Explosion
While the whole family is having dinner at the festive table, you can hold another cool competition. One of the family members receives a balloon, into which he must exhale once, and then pass the balloon to another family member sitting next to him at the table. The game continues until the balloon bursts with the last exhalation. The loser will have to fulfill a family wish.
![](https://i1.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/1848905.jpg)
New Year is the main reason for a group of friends to get together and count down the past twelve months. For adults, New Year's games and competitions, which are mainly organized at school, will not be interesting. In the company of friends, it would be appropriate to play funny and frank competitions, which, of course, involve alcohol.
Egg
Only men are invited to participate in the “Egg” competition. Participants are seated at a round table, in front of which they place a plate of eggs, the number of which depends on the number of players. The presenter announces that the participants must break the eggs taken from the plate on their foreheads, one of which is raw, and the rest are boiled. The participant who breaks a raw egg on his forehead leaves the table, and the host adds another egg to the plate. The game continues until one person remains at the table.
![](https://i1.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/13049-750x493-1507104500.jpg)
Chain
It is recommended to play “Chain” in a spacious room, for example, in a club or restaurant. The presenter calls four people to his place, who are divided into two teams. Participants will have to make a chain using the clothes they are wearing. Depending on the area of the room, you can increase the number of players. The team that makes the longest chain of clothes wins.
Princess on the Pea
The Princess and the Pea competition is perfect for adults: as a rule, only women participate in it. Chairs are placed in the center of the room, the number of which depends on the number of participants. The leader places one object on the chairs before the women sit on them. Now the participants will have to determine by touch what they are sitting on. These items can be an apple, a pencil, a soft toy. The winner of the competition is the participant who is the first to determine which subject she sat on.

The most exciting part of any corporate event are games and competitions. With his skill and ingenuity, any employee can impress his superiors and receive a coveted bonus or promotion.
![](https://i2.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/korporativ-2016-2.jpg)
Treasure for the boss
A very funny game that is often offered to be played at corporate events. The competition tests how well a boss knows his subordinates. The presenter puts one thing in the box that he took from each employee, for example, a tie, watch, handbag, phone. Then the boss needs to pull one item out of the box and loudly call the name of its owner.
New Year's masquerade
For a corporate party, “New Year's Masquerade” will probably be the funniest and most exciting game. The participants stand in a circle, after which the leader gives one of them a bag containing underwear, swimsuits, bows, wigs, diapers for adults. Music begins to play in the hall, and meanwhile the participants pass the bag to each other. When the host suddenly stops the song, the player with the bag in his hands gets the opportunity to choose one of the items stored in the bag. He will have to put on this thing and continue to participate in the competition. The game continues until the bag is empty.
![](https://i0.wp.com/24smi.org/public/media/resize/800x-/2017/12/4/43.jpg)
Let's figure it out for three?
It's no secret that most competitions at corporate events involve rapid drinking of alcohol. Game "Let's figure it out for three?" will not be an exception. The host seats six people at the table, who are divided into two teams. Participants are given one bottle of champagne, which the three of them will have to drink while music is playing in the hall. The winner of the competition is the team that empties the bottle faster than the other.
