Air battle

The room is divided in half by a ribbon. The participants are divided into two teams. Each team is given the same number of balloons. The task is to throw all their balls to the opponent, while the balls from opponents must also be sent back to their field. The competition begins with a sound signal and after the second sound, the children must stop. The team with the fewest balloons on their field wins.

Let's get acquainted

It happens that in the company at home holidays there are children who are unfamiliar with each other. How to make friends? Of course, by offering to play, then no one will have any embarrassment.

Children hold hands and stand in a circle. Inside the circle is the birthday man or the chosen leader. All children, on command or to the soundtrack of a cheerful children's song, begin to move in a circle to the right. The birthday boy goes to the left, facing the guests. On the command "stop" or on a pause in the music, all children stop. The birthday boy gets acquainted with the child who was opposite him. The game is repeated as many times as there are children in the circle so that the hero of the occasion can get to know everyone. An adult stops the music and says “stop” at the moments of meeting with still unfamiliar children.

If all the children know each other, this game can be played in a different way. Everyone who stops at a signal in front of the birthday boy congratulates him, compliments him.

Formula 1

Two sticks (you can use pencils) are tied with a rope of the same length (3-4 meters). A typewriter is tied to the free ends of the ropes. The "finish" in front of which both players stand can be marked with a ribbon or drawn with chalk.

The rest command: "One, two three, start!" Two players begin to quickly wind the strings around the pencils. Whose car crosses the finish line first, he won.

Then the next pair compete. The winners advance to the semifinals and compete against each other. The champion is awarded a "super prize".

Vanya - simplicity

This children's folk game "Vanya-simplicity" is suitable for a company in which there are no more than five children, and the room is spacious enough.

Children stand up as a “train”, that is, one after another, putting their hands on the shoulders of the person in front. They begin to follow the leader, "Vanya". At the same time, they say: "Vanya, Vanya-simplicity, I bought a horse without a tail." At the words “he sat down backwards and went to the garden,” everyone moves in the opposite direction, back to front. Then they stop and say: “One, two, three, catch!” After that, the children scatter to different sides, and "Vanya" catches the players.

Instead of the name "Vanya" you should use the name of the child, standing first. For example, "Sasha-simplicity". When the game is repeated, the next child becomes the driver (Misha, Misha-simplicity).

hostess

Two or three people participate in the competition. It is necessary to disassemble into separate piles peas, beans and beans mixed in a cup, or beads of two or three types, or pasta - feathers, horns and shells. You can offer such a mixture to each player in his own, separate container. These can be cups or salt shakers of the same size. Then the winner is the one who first sorts out all the contents of his bowl.

If there are no three identical small vessels, you can mix everything in one large cup, put the players around it and give them certain time. Whoever has more piles on the table in the allotted time (no more than three minutes!) Will win.

Try to guess

An adult invites children to guess how many nuts or sweets are in a transparent jar. Or how much (what length, height) this toy weighs. Or on which page there is a bookmark in a book, if there are so many pages in it. Determine by touch what is in this bag. Or guess what is in a closed box that cannot be opened, but you can take it, shake it, turn it over, etc.

Children express their opinions. Whoever guesses or whose answer is closer to the truth is given this box, a jar along with the contents, a book or a toy as a prize.

Naturally, when preparing the material, an adult himself carefully counts, measures, weighs it and remembers the correct answer.

Take a chair

Every child except one comes out with their own chair. The chairs form a circle. There is space between the chairs so that a person can easily pass.

The leader turns on the music, or rings a tambourine, or rhythmically strikes his hands. The children walk around the chairs. As soon as the sounds stop, each player tries to take any chair. The one who did not have enough space is out of the game.

They remove one more chair, and if there are a lot of players, then two or three chairs at once.

The game continues until one of the two most dexterous children is on the last remaining chair. He is a winner.

greedy

For this competition you need a lot of balls or balloons. Compete from two to four participants. Each of them tries to collect and hold as many named items as possible.

You can make the task more difficult. Each player is given three attempts, for which he must take and move to his corner, possibly large quantity balls.

Whoever succeeded is declared the main ... greedy. If you feel that this can offend a child, and not make him laugh, do not say this word! The prize is awarded to the winner in any case.

Who will be lucky?

The children split into twos and stand up two by two. Couples raise clasped hands. All couples alternately run forward into the formed gate from behind. Thus, each last pair, having run between all the children, becomes the first for a while.

All couples together gradually move back so as not to go beyond the space allotted for the game. It is desirable that the game is accompanied by cheerful music.

The driver stands in front of the players with his back to them. It can be a parent, a character, or a birthday person. He has several prizes in pairs, for example: two pens, two markers, two lollipops, two bookmarks, two notebooks, etc.

When the driver says "stop!", the players (and the music) stop. The driver, without turning around, says: “This pair of chocolates!” Then he turns and gives the couple who was at that moment directly behind him (that is, the first couple) sweet prizes. The couple that next time will be ahead by the word “stop!” May get notebooks or bookmarks.

The game is played until the driver runs out of prizes. It is possible that some pairs of prizes will not get it at all, and some - two or three times. Here's how lucky anyone is!

Mission Dance

Children dance randomly to their favorite music. The leader from time to time shouts out command words that the dancers must immediately execute. For example, the host may ask everyone to continue the dance in pairs or threes, go in a chain or snake for the birthday boy, then change into a round dance, etc.

Let's congratulate the song

The birthday boy walks out the door. The guests choose which song they will perform for him. For example, they decide to sing the refrain from Gena the Crocodile Song.

All participants must say one word from this song, and at the same time. Therefore, they agree on who and what particular word from the selected song will speak. If there are a lot of children, then they are divided into groups, each of which is assigned its own word.

It is necessary to exclaim in unison, on command (for example, by waving a hand). Some shout “unfortunately”, others (at the same time) - “day”, others - “birth”, fourth - “only”, etc.

Upon returning, the birthday boy must guess what song the guests want to sing for him. If he guessed correctly, then he listens with pleasure or sings this song along with the guests.

If the song is not guessed the first time, then with a wave of the organizer's hand, the words are repeated again. Thus, the hero of the occasion is given a second chance to hear and guess the song, and congratulators - to finally sing it, to the delight of themselves and the birthday man.

On the new year holiday Santa Claus or the Snow Maiden can leave the hall, and the children, divided into three teams, shout out the words “in the forest”, “born” and “herringbone”. On March 8, dad and children can sing their favorite song for mom in the same way.

Birthday

The guests walk in a round dance to the right. Inside the circle, the birthday boy moves to the left. He sentences or sings (arbitrary melody):

I'll go round and round

I'll find a couple.

Come on, Olenka (Sashenka) - my friend,

Join the circle with me!

The birthday boy brings the selected child into the circle. Further, the game can develop in three different ways.

First option

"Druzhochek" together with the birthday boy dance in a circle, and other children clap. Later, they, too, can join in the dance.

Second option

The birthday boy and the guest dance together in a circle. Then each of them invites a new partner. Now two couples are dancing in a circle. Then each of these four chooses another “friend”, and in the middle four couples are already dancing. And so on until all the children are invited to the dance.

Third option

The birthday boy ends his text with these words:

We are with you now to drive,

Let's start catching everyone!

The game turns into "catch-up". The birthday boy with the "friend" catch the rest of the children. Players scatter, but freeze in place or leave and sit down if the drivers touched them.

The birthday boy and the "friend" can arrange a competition among themselves who will catch the most players. In this case, each child caught goes to the side assigned to the driver who caught him.

Find and name

If the holiday is held in a cramped room full of furniture, where there is no opportunity to play outdoor games, you can give the guests of the birthday boy the task of finding as many words in the room as possible for the same letter. The letter is indicated by the birthday man, opening his favorite book on some page.

Or they are looking for items that begin with the same letter as the name of the hero of the occasion. For example, for Sasha they will call words starting with the letter “c” (glass, wall, chair, candle, salad). And for Katya, they will pick up words starting with the letter “k” (book, armchair, cat, baby, ketchup, fireplace). The winner is the participant who named more words by one letter.

cat and mice

The driver is a “cat” (you can tie a bow around your neck), the rest of the participants are “mice”. "Cat" sits on a chair and pretends to be asleep. The “mice” carefully, on tiptoes, move around the room around the cat or in all directions and say, at first very quietly, then louder and louder:

Tra-ta-ta, tra-ta-ta,

We are not afraid of the cat.

We are a cooing cat

Let's turn the gate!

"Cat" wakes up, meows and catches up with mice. Touching the "cat" during the "sleep" is prohibited!

Bread

Russian folk needle

Children are divided into two teams. In each of them, the players are equally divided, and they stand one behind the other. Teams line up in a straight line facing each other. It is desirable that the distance between the teams was large enough.

In the center of the playground, on the same line with the teams, strictly in the middle between them, one child crouches. This is "bread". He is chosen by a counting rhyme in advance.

All players, except for "bread", begin to pronounce the words in unison:

That's how tall

(raise hands up)

That's how wide

(spread arms out to sides)

Cut and eat!

(clap their hands for "cut")

After the clap, the first players of both teams break away from their seats and try to be the first to run and touch the “bread”. The player who succeeded takes the “bread” and takes it to his team. They stand behind the rest of the players. The less successful player of the opposing team himself becomes the "bread" and sits in his place.

The game is repeated. The same words are spoken again in chorus and the same actions are performed, but now the next players of both teams (now they are the first) compete for "bread".

The game ends when all members of both teams compete with each other. The team with the most players wins. This means that they often took away “bread” for themselves.

The older the child becomes, the more parents puzzle over what to give their child for his birthday, how to celebrate this holiday, what program and where to spend.

Every adult wants to please children, to do something unusual, to surprise them with something. It is seven years old… What demands do modern children make to their parents at this age? What does a real holiday mean to them?

If you are about to celebrate your birthday at home with large quantity guests, our advice and ideas are for you.

Repertoire

Before you start selecting games and contests for children 7 years old for a birthday at home, decide what the repertoire will be like: directed in one key (only contests, only experiments, etc.), or containing a variety of items (competitions interspersed with games, experiments, practical jokes, etc.).

We offer you some numbers that your seven-year-olds will surely like.

birthday experiences for kids

Older preschoolers and younger students will like and remember for a long time interesting experiments. Here is some of them.

Birthday letter

Prepare your letter in advance as follows. Dip a cotton swab in milk and write a message for the hero of the occasion on a white sheet of paper. Dry the letter. Show the children White list and tell the birthday boy to read it. Let the guys themselves give ideas on how to develop the text. Then take a burning candle and slide the flame over the paper in the place where the message is written. The letters will gradually appear and the children will be able to read the text.

Inflator bottle

Place 2 tablespoons in a half liter plastic bottle baking soda. Take a balloon and vinegar. Pour 50-100 ml of vinegar into a bottle and quickly put a ball on the neck. Hold the ball at the base and shake the bottle - from the interaction of soda and vinegar, it will gradually inflate.

eruption

Blind from plasticine a “volcano” hollow inside. Inside, put a bottle with a narrow neck, with soda and a piece of orange paint (gouache, food, etc.). Press the hole on top of the "volcano" to the opening of the container so that the outgoing "lava" flows out. Pour vinegar into the upper hole (in bottles) and wait for the "eruption" to begin.

Birthday pranks for kids

The point of pranks is to amuse the audience. Children love to laugh! For practical jokes, choose non-offensive children who understand humor.

Match

A volunteer is called, he is given the task to throw off, with the help of facial expressions, without moving his head and without using his hands, two matches stuck on his forehead. In fact, one match sticks, and the second is imperceptibly removed, about which the audience should be warned in advance. The first match falls, the player is offered to use facial expressions more actively in order to throw off the second one supposedly hanging on his forehead. At this time, the audience plays along: they suggest which face it is better to make a face so that the match disappears. Then the player is offered a mirror to make it easier to remove the match. He looks down at himself and realizes he's been played.

Ball

Two volunteers are needed for the draw. Children sit opposite each other at the table. A ball is placed in the middle and the task is explained: the players must blindfold the ball to the opponent's side. The children are blindfolded and the ball is silently removed, and instead of it they put a plate of flour. On “one, two, three,” the players begin to blow with all their might. Spectators cheer friends, cheer for the players. When they untie their eyes to show who won, they see that everything around is white! (Flour can be substituted for confetti.)

Magic tricks for kids on birthday

You can show tricks to children and teach them to do the same at the same time. This will be a fun time for a noisy company.

Orange or apple?

Carefully remove the peel from the orange so that it can be placed on the table and looks like a whole orange. Then take a smaller apple and hide it in the peel. Show the children a supposedly whole orange, cover it with a “magic” handkerchief, then remove the handkerchief, discreetly peeling off the peel of the orange, and show the surprised viewers that your orange has turned into an apple.

empty vase

The magician must have long sleeves, in one of the sleeves hide a rubber bulb with water. Show the children an empty vase, let them make sure that there is no water in it. Then the magician puts his hand into the vase, pressing the pear of water against the wall, and to the surprise of everyone, splashes out the water.

Birthday games for children 7 years old

Games for children of seven years old can be organized both mobile and logical. You can print out various puzzles, crosswords, scanwords and give them to the kids. So, examples of games for children 7 years old for a birthday at home.

Pictures

Parents must prepare cards in advance with animals, birds, etc. written on them, which need to be depicted. During the game, one person comes out, draws a card, reads (possibly with the help of an adult) and draws the word written on it. The audience must guess what was written on the card. The one who guesses the word changes with the leader.

ringlet

All children sit with their hands folded. The leader with a ring in his folded hands approaches everyone, as if putting a ring in each of his closed palms. In fact, he imperceptibly puts a ring in someone alone and says: “Ring, ring, go out on the porch!” Those sitting nearby (to the left and right of this player) must orient themselves in time and detain him. If the child managed to jump up, he becomes the leader.

Who is he?

Among the players, they think of one person and talk about him to the host. Then the leader comes out, he is blindfolded. When he enters, all the players have already mixed up. The facilitator must guess the hidden person by the hand or by the head.

To hold children's birthday contests for 7 years at home is the simplest and most interesting for children, because not only the birthday person, but also the guests receive gifts.

Prizes are best chosen a few weeks before the birthday. For example, when you go to supermarkets, shopping malls, on sale. So that you don’t have to buy in a hurry just before your birthday “what was in the store” and not spend a lot of money. So, what contests for a children's birthday of 7 years old can be organized at home on your own.

Picture

Find some pictures, such as famous cartoon characters, animals or objects. It’s good if all the drawings are from the “one opera”, so that it is easier for children to guess. Cover the picture with a thick sheet of cardboard or a book and slowly begin to open it in small parts. Who first guessed what is shown in the picture - receives a prize.

Racers

Tie two threads of the same length with one side to two toy cars, the other to pencils. On the count of “one, two, three,” the players must wind the thread around the pencil as quickly as possible. The winner is a prize.

Puzzles

Make a selection of children's puzzles. Mark the names of those who guessed correctly on the list. The one who guessed the most riddles wins a prize.

Chain

Grab a few packs of paper clips and lay them out in front of the kids. At the leader's command, everyone begins to build a chain. After a few minutes, the leader shouts: “Stop” and the winner is determined - the one whose chain is the longest.

"Magic Words"

You must be prepared for the fact that among the friends of your birthday there will be children with different characters. Someone, perhaps, will try to disrupt your program, someone will make noise and indulge, and someone will be offended with or without reason. There is no time at the holiday to teach children and instruct them. Therefore, you need to stock up on some "magic words" so as not to waste a lot of time on bullies.

When you feel that the situation is getting out of hand, stop the program and call on everyone to listen carefully to you. When the children are quiet, explain your rules to them in a persuasive tone. Everything will depend on what is happening, what is the problem and which of the children creates it.

Strictly say that the holiday begins to act new law: “Whoever behaves in such and such a way receives a penalty point. For three penalty points, a person leaves the game (leaves to play in another room, etc.), and if illegal actions continue, the leader calls the parents, and the violator is taken home.

At the age of seven, children already perfectly understand causal relationships, so your strict tone and the gloomy prospect of being left without a holiday will certainly “bring them to their senses.”

Important little things

When preparing a celebration for a child, pay attention to some of the nuances that play an important role in the child's perception of the holiday.

• Take care not only about decorating the room for the holiday, but also about the original table setting. For seven-year-old children, the taste of the dishes on the table is not as important as their appearance.
• For table setting and decorating a room in a festive style, a lot of little things are now on sale, and this will make a birthday bright and unusual.
• Find a CD or Internet radio with children's songs that will sound both during the feast and at competitions.
• Get someone to take pictures and video of the whole event to capture the fun.

And if you are still not ready to take on the entertainment for the guests, then professional hosts for the holiday will come to your aid. But keep in mind that with some firms providing staff for children's day birth, you need to arrange in advance a few weeks.

Children's birthday is an important holiday for a child. The task of the parent is to make it fun, exciting and unique. The main attribute of the holiday are games and competitions that allow children to get to know each other and overcome shyness. Birthday games for children should be active and alternate with calm ones so that the kids can relax.
