Children are divided into teams of 6-8 people (quantity may vary), at the head of each team is an adult who has a list of the route on the hens
General fee and short story about the Maslenitsa holiday, after which the children are invited to complete tasks in order to finally drive away Zima-Zimushka.

All teams pass the stations in the order indicated in the route sheet.
At each station, after passing it, the host puts a seal on the team's form.

1. Station one - The sun is radiant.
This station will require sheets of A3 format or whatman paper, on each sheet a large circle is drawn (the future sun) and stripes-rays different colors, according to the number of commands.
Each member of each team sticks a ray of sunshine.
The difficulty is that his eyes are blindfolded and he can only cope with the task if the whole team helps him and guides him.

2. Station two - Sled racing.
At this station, the team is divided into two and compete with each other. On a signal, a couple of players run to the marked finish line, while carrying sleds with other team members. At the line they change and come back.
If there are small children in the team, they are carried by an adult (accompanying the team or standing at the station), or sits in a sled soft toy which the child can carry himself.

3. Station three - Making a Shrovetide doll.
From special blanks(bast) children under the guidance of an adult make a Shrovetide doll. To do this, multi-colored rags and threads are prepared in advance at the station. The doll remains in memory of the child about the holiday.

4. Fourth station - Running in bags.
The team is again divided into two parts and compete with each other in the sack race.

5. Station five - Shooting at a target with snowballs.
A snow target is made on the wall of the building, at which the children take turns throwing snowballs. If possible, the snow target is replaced by a drawn one.

6. Station six - Tug of war.
Everything is simple here, but to make it more interesting, the teams take up the rope while standing with their backs to each other. The competition is held several times, the team changes within itself.

7. Station seventh - Bells.
At this station, the children are blindfolded in turn and are invited to find a bell by sound (a child from the team can also ring it). Everyone who wants to pass the test must. The guys who are watching can tell if there is a need (at the signal of the station owner)

8. Station eighth - What are they doing in the city?
The station begins with the roll call of the driver with the players:

- Ding, ding, ding!

- Who's there?

- Where?

- From the city …

- What are they doing in the city?

The driver can say that they are dancing, singing, jumping in the city. All players must do what the driver said.

All children take turns leading.

When all the teams have passed all the stations (you can start with those who finish earlier) - it is proposed to play folk games

Brook.

The players stand one after another in pairs, join hands and hold them high above their heads. From clasped hands, a long corridor is obtained.
The player who did not get a pair goes to the “source” of the stream and, passing under clasped hands, looks for a pair.
Holding hands, the new couple makes their way to the end of the corridor, and the one whose couple was broken goes to the beginning of the "brook".
And passing under clasped hands, he takes away with him the one he likes. So the "brook" moves - the more participants, the more fun game, especially fun to spend with music.

The bear is in the forest.

Game for the little ones. Of all the participants in the game, one driver is chosen, who is designated the "bear". 2 circles are drawn on the playground. The 1st circle is the "bear's" lair, the 2nd is the house for all other participants in the game.

The game begins, and the children leave the house with the words:

At the bear in the forest
Mushrooms, I take berries.
The bear doesn't sleep
And growls at us.

After the children say these words, the "bear" runs out of the den and tries to catch one of the children. If someone does not have time to escape into the house and the "bear" catches him, then he himself becomes a "bear" and goes to the den.

After the games, all the children get up in a round dance, dance to Shrovetide songs and watch the effigy burn, say goodbye to Winter.

Since the pleasant time of the thaw has come, everyone goes outside, everyone has more vital energy. Accordingly, it needs to be directed in a pleasant direction, which is why games for children and Maslenitsa contests are arranged, here are a few of them:

  • "Handkerchief" - tied on different height handkerchiefs fall off the jump by the boys, after which they give them to the girls they like.
  • "Petushki" - in the drawn circle, the guys, standing on one leg, try to push each other out of it without using their hands.

Throwing felt boots

The essence of the game lies in the title.
Like, goodbye, boots!
Throwing at a distance, accuracy, proximity of the fall of the second felt boot from the first.
Suitable for a large hall, but better, of course, for the street.

Running with obstacles

There are two guys in the relay.
Stages:

  • Put on a Russian shirt
  • gird with a sash
  • eat banana
  • whistle
  • Kiss the beauty

Beauty alone. She is kissed by the one who first passed the previous stages.

Option:
This kind of relay can be held in the summer, say, in the camp.
On the beach, the guys need to run to the water: take off their baseball cap, jacket, shirt, sneakers, trousers, dive into the water. Who is first?

"Burners"

The players stand in pairs one after another. Ahead of all, at a distance of two steps, there is a driver - a burner. Those playing in a chant say the words:

"Burn, burn brightly,
To not go out.
Stay down,
Look in the field
Trumpeters are going there
Yes, they eat kalachi.
Look at the sky
The stars are burning
Cranes shout:
- Gu, gu, I'll run away.
One, two, do not crow,
Run like fire!"
After the last words, the children standing in the last pair run from two sides along the column. The burner tries to stain one of them. If the running players managed to take each other's hands before the burner stains one of them, then they stand in front of the first pair, and the burner burns again.
The game is repeated.
If the burner succeeds in spotting one of the runners in a pair, then he stands with him in front of the entire column, and the one who is left without a pair burns.
Game rules:
The burner must not look back. He catches up with fleeing players as soon as they run past him.

"Wattle"

All participants are divided into two teams and lined up in two lines opposite each other.
Participants braid the "wattle" - they join hands through one, crosswise.
The members of the first team walk towards the other team, which at this time is standing still, and say: “We all congratulate Masha and wish her good health!”. They say the second half of the phrase, stepping back. Then the other team does the same. Then everyone lines up in the back of the head and follows the leader, who tries to walk in such a way that everyone is confused. As soon as the leader claps his hands, both teams take their places and again braid into a “wattle fence”.
Usually after that, "extra" hands appear.

"Owl and Birds"

Before the start of the competition, children choose for themselves the names of those birds whose voice they can imitate. For example, a dove, a crow, a jackdaw, a sparrow, a titmouse, a goose, a duck, a crane, etc. The players choose an owl. He goes to his nest, and those who play quietly, so that the owl does not hear, come up with what kind of birds they will be in the game. Birds fly, scream, stop and squat. Each player imitates the call and movements of the bird he has chosen. At the signal "Owl!" all birds try to quickly take a place in their home. If the owl manages to catch someone, then he must guess what kind of bird it is. Only a correctly named bird becomes an owl. Bird houses and the owl house should be located on a hill. Birds fly to the nest on a signal or as soon as the eagle owl catches one of them.

"Broom on forehead"

Now try to wear a broom on your forehead for as long as possible.

The children stand in a circle, hold their hands behind their backs, and one of the players - the dawn - walks behind with a ribbon and says:
Zarya-lightning,
red maiden,
Walked across the field
Dropped the keys
golden keys,
blue ribbons,
entwined rings -
Went for water.
FROM last words the driver carefully puts the tape on the shoulder of one of the players, who, noticing this, quickly takes the tape, and they both run to different sides round. The one who is left without a place becomes the dawn. The game is repeated.

Korchaga

The korchaga and the driver are selected by lot. The korchaga is covered with a scarf and put in the center of the circle formed by the participants in the game. The leader from the korchaga secretly gives all the players the names: "bird", "flower", etc. Then he stands near the korchaga and calls each of the players in turn, pronouncing his new name. The summoned person approaches the seated person, lightly strikes him with his hand and, returning to his place, claps his hands. After that, the driver removes the handkerchief from the pot and asks who hit him. If the driver guesses correctly, the one who hit sits in his place, if not, the korchaga remains in the center of the circle, and the game continues.

The Russian soul is so arranged that as soon as the last New Year's fireworks have died down and the protracted feasts have died down, the people begin to wait for spring. Therefore, the Seeing of the Russian Winter is celebrated so widely and joyfully. Wide Maslenitsa. These days and those who strictly observe Orthodox traditions and those who do not adhere to them are happy to overeat pancakes and participate in funny fun and folk festivals. For those who like to add something new to the traditional program of this wonderful holiday, we offer outdoor games and fun on Maslenitsa: some of them are more suitable for a small company, others - for a mass celebration.

1. An outdoor game - a scene on Maslenitsa "Pancakes with Caviar"

To conduct this game, you need to prepare incendiary folk music and six chairs (bench) and invite six people to participate in it. Before the start of the scene, distribute the roles and introduce the participants to the audience to the music, at the same time rehearsing their movements and words with each one (it is better not to give cards with words, they will interfere with movement). The leader calls each hero, he expressively says his phrase and demonstrates his movement to the musical passage. Then the facilitator will explain the rules: everyone sits down, the text is read, each time their character is mentioned, the participant gets up and runs clockwise around the chairs, making a characteristic movement and shouting his line, then sits down again. If the word “Pancakes” sounds in the text, everyone jumps up, shouting: “Happy holiday, people!” and run together around the chairs.

There are no winners or losers in this game, even if someone gets confused, it doesn't matter, it's just an excuse to have fun and move around on a holiday.

(The game was invented by analogy with the well-known scene - if the presenter likes the option with cards more, you can distribute the words by removing the movements).

Actors, lines and characteristic movements:

Grandfather: "I want a drink!" - one hand on the back of the head, the other - on the waist

Baba: "I will treat everyone!" - hospitably throws up his hands

Daughter: "Life is good!" - clapping hands

Son-in-law: “The soul unfolded!” - arms at sides

Caviar: "The mouth rejoices!" - the thumb shows a gesture: "In!"

Pancakes: "Happy holiday, folks!" - welcome hand gesture

All the more fashionable and cooler I am,

If you are fit to be friends.

No time to sit at home
And besides, she's also an artist.
Come take a look.

I was rollerblading
Made all the hints
Just what a pity
I am very timid.

Just didn't fit into the hoop
To twist at the waist.

Put delicious pie,
Yes pancakes, yes with sour cream,

The traditional Slavic holiday Shrovetide is always celebrated very cheerfully and on a grand scale. It marks the arrival of spring. The main attribute of the holiday are pancakes, personifying the warm sun. During the festivities, funny games and contests are held for Maslenitsa. The festive evening ends with a farewell to winter and the burning of an effigy.

Shrovetide Contests

sled racing

Participants are divided into pairs. One person gets into the sled, and the other carries them by the rope. The task of each team is to go the distance faster than the others, avoiding all the obstacles on the road. In this case, you must try not to knock down the flags and other markings. After passing the distance in one direction, the participants change roles and go in the opposite direction.

Sun

Folk games for children on Maslenitsa are always very fun and provocatively. For the next competition, you will need two large sheets of paper and the same number of felt-tip pens. Children are divided into two teams. Circles are drawn on sheets of paper. The competition is held on time. In turn, each team member runs up to the sheet and draws one ray to the circle. Then he passes the marker to the next one. The team that depicts wins large quantity rays in the allotted time.

Brook

This old game must be included in the Maslenitsa contests. All participants are divided into pairs and, holding hands, stand one after another. It should be a kind of corridor. The hands of the participants in the game are raised high. The player who did not get a pair goes along the “corridor”, chooses a companion for himself, and together they stand at the end of the so-called “brook”. Left without a couple, he is looking for her again. This game is quite interesting and romantic.

Cast iron with potatoes

Contests for Maslenitsa are mostly held in teams. The same can be said about the next game. Members of two teams are armed with ordinary spoons. Next to them is an empty bowl, and a little further - a pot with potatoes. The task of the participants: in turn, transfer one tuber to their plate with a spoon. The winner is the team that manages to complete the task faster.

Broom competition

Many Shrovetide games for children are played using this simple tool. You can arrange a competition for throwing a broomstick. The strongest and most dexterous will be the winner. You can arrange a chain of skittles and invite the participants of the fun to run, sitting on a broom, with a snake, without knocking down the markings. The fastest participant will win this competition.

Snowballs

On the street you can arrange a throwing competition. Children or adults are divided into teams. At some distance from them are empty buckets, and next to them are snowballs. The task of the competitors is to get into the tank. Whoever throws more snowballs into the bucket will be considered the winner.

Running in pairs
