Of course, letters that do not represent sounds are skipped. A comic medal is given to the guest whose toast-congratulation was especially liked by the public.

This board game can serve as fun entertainment and a call to the host announces that there is a New Year's sign, that whoever has fun celebrates the New Year, dances a lot, can "get out" from all problems and leave them in the past, then suggests a little warm-up. As soon as the word “boys” is heard, all the young people quickly get up and spin around their axis and sit down again, and at the word “girls”, the girls spin, respectively. And so - for every heard word "boy" and "girl". Ready, start.

In the New Year in our country, everyone gives gifts, and everyone gets hot from fun and love. Boys often give girls flowers so that all their dreams come true. And the Girls kiss them back and say that they are the best in the world. The girls raise their glasses for the Young Man, they wish the Young Men good health.

To do this, the presenter divides the hall into three teams, the first, when Santa Claus appears, shouts in unison: “Hurrah!”, The second applauds loudly, and the third stomps his feet. Any game either in honor of Santa Claus or with him will be very useful.

6. Playing at the "B" table New Year no debt."

The lead to the game is something like this: “Everyone knows the sign that in order to live the whole next year without debt - you need to pay them off in the old year. I suggest for those who have not had time to do it yet to conduct a ritual. Here is my magic box (shows a piggy bank or box). Anyone who wants to part with his creditors once and for all can throw any amount into it, while internally you need to very strongly and sincerely wish yourself wealth and prosperity. And remember, the more generous you are in repaying debts, the more favorable the upcoming New Year will be to you!

Then the "casket" goes in a circle to the song "Money, Money". When everyone who wants to repay their debts “fills up the treasury” and the piggy bank returns to the host, you can arrange an auction, saying that one of the guests will become richer right now, it will be the one who most accurately guesses the amount collected. Have special people write down all the versions put forward along with the names of the "foretellers".

New Year's performance for the little ones

Is it necessary to arrange at all little child New Year's holiday? “Children at this age do not understand anything,” many parents think so. But they absorb and imprint everything. So the holiday - be!

15. Preparing a home performance

Dads with babies in their arms sit in the auditorium, and mothers begin the performance. Let it be a real performance, only a small one. Don't dress up as Santa Claus. Such a "performance" can only scare.

• Build the simplest "scene" in advance. On the cardboard box of the bed white cloth, build snowdrifts from semolina. “Trees” are branches brought from the street, stuck into a piece of plasticine, and pieces of cotton wool on it can represent snow.
• Take 2-3 small wooden toys or figurines. They will be the characters in the story.
• The plot of such a performance should be simple. And it will certainly appear repetitive phrases. Let even little children understand almost nothing from a fairy tale! But the impression will remain, and repeated words will attract attention.

For example, we can offer such a scenario. Once a mouse (if you don't have a mouse figurine, replace it with another character) saw a wonderful miracle in a dream! He saw a Christmas tree, but not the same as they grew in his forest, but beautiful, elegant, shining! And the mouse went through the forest to look for her.
I met a mouse squirrel:

- Squirrel-squirrel, have you seen a smart Christmas tree, all in balls and lights?
- No! - the squirrel answers. - I did not see!
The mouse went on. I met a magpie.
- Magpie-white-sided, have you seen an elegant Christmas tree, all in balls and lights?
- No! - answers forty. - I did not see!
The mouse went on. I met a mouse owl.
- Owl-big head, have you seen an elegant Christmas tree, all in balls and lights?
- I saw it! She's not in the forest! People, in the house. But if you want, you can look through the window in the last house near the forest, there she is!

The mouse ran to the edge of the forest. And the truth! There is a house, and in the house - the window glows.
The mouse looked in the window, and there! The Christmas tree is elegant, just like he saw in a dream!

And then the New Year came and everyone began to congratulate each other and give gifts. The little mouse was saddened that there would be no gift for him! But suddenly a little girl ran out into the yard, saw a mouse and said:

- Wait, baby, don't run away, I'll be right back!
She ran into the house, but returned a minute later. And in her hands she had a beautiful big candy.
"Here's a present for you, little mouse!" Because everyone gets presents for the New Year!

At this moment, you can complete the fairy tale and give the kids a gift. Let it be something very simple, age appropriate.

At parting, you can arrange a slight blackout and light candles. The holiday ends! Goodbye, kids! Happy New Year!

Then put one half (without an inscription) in a box (or hat), and hide the other half (with a prize or a fine) somewhere in the room.

The facilitator can give a hint, for example: a window, a shelf, a sofa, an armchair, etc. (you can name one or two objects). Whoever is lucky wins the prize, and if luck turns away from the participant, he will be forced to pay a fine (play some kind of scene, sing a song, etc.).

How to prepare for contests and games

1. Make a plan for games and competitions. Supporting materials are best done on cards - if you need to stock up on some phrases, scripts and texts, then write or print them in advance on ordinary cards, this is much more convenient than using one large script.

2. Prepare props. Having decided what you will play for the new year, make a list of what you will need for a particular competition. It is best to arrange the props and prizes into thematic contests (I use small gift bags for this).

3. Stock up on prizes. People are very fond of receiving little funny surprises - sweets, chocolates, cute christmas toys. Prizes are better to take with a margin.

4. Pick up music.

5. Prepare a place for games.

6. Identify your helpers.

The very first in a series of New Year's fun are corporate parties. How to meet them cheerfully in order to create a mood for the whole year and have a great holiday event? The closer the New Year corporate party, the stronger the excitement.

What is the best way to organize a holiday? How to please all guests at once? How to choose the most interesting contests for the Year of the Pig?

A company of adults will need to eat, raise glasses for the New Year, and dance, so game program should be carefully woven into the natural flow of the party. We offer you great ideas for fun games and contests.
