Invent, play, have fun - and your holiday will remain in memory for a long time. for a long time, and the new year 2019, the year of the Earth Pig, will bring you good luck!

Board games

The New Year's table is so good that there is no strength to get out of it. So that your guests do not fall asleep right while eating salad, invite them to diversify the festive pastime a little:

Merry toasts

The proposal is this - after each table speech, all those present rise together and in unison make a sound characteristic of the animal symbol of the upcoming New Year: they crow (Rooster), bark (Dog), hiss (Snake) and so on. If the year of the “silent” sign comes (Rat or Dragon), you can choose any word or phrase associated with the New Year: “Christmas tree”, “Salute”, “Santa Claus”. The main condition is that you need to shout out the same thing every time.

remember the movie

If connoisseurs of cinema have gathered at the table, they can be offered a quiz game on the theme of cinema as an entertainment. Its essence is simple - all those present at the table call in a circle pictures with New Year's, Christmas or just winter themes (preferably well-known). Anyone who cannot name their choice within 30 seconds is out. At the end, only two connoisseurs remain who will fight for the first prize.

Who am I

Adapt the game to the theme of the holiday. Distribute to the guests pre-prepared cards with the names of New Year's and fairy-tale characters (options - Santa Claus deer, elf, Snow Maiden). Ask them to attach it to your forehead without looking. Further, according to the standard scenario, the participants in the game ask questions around the circle, trying to guess in whose role they are playing.

Calm and active games for children for the New Year 2020

It is also impossible to forget about the children present at the celebration of the New Year, otherwise their pranks or whims can spoil the whole celebration for adults. Depending on the age and temperament, children can offer different entertainments for young guests.

snow games

It is not at all necessary to go outside - excellent snowballs are obtained from cotton wool or crumpled sheets of paper. Game options: collect soft lumps from the floor into baskets, throw them from a distance into empty buckets, build a "snow" tower.

Guess by touch

The participants take turns putting on thick mittens and blindfolding them, after which they must guess which vegetable or fruit is on the table in front of them. You can use everything that is in the kitchen: carrots, beets, potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, oranges, bananas.

dress up the mummy

Divide the children into groups and ask them to create a kind of mummy by wrapping toilet paper around one of the team members. If the entertainment seemed too short, you can continue it - invite the kids to paint their "creation" with acrylic paints.

Prepare small prizes that you will give to children for winning competitions. Do not deprive the losers either - let them get a reward “for the will in victory”, otherwise you cannot avoid tears and insults.

New Year's Eve 2020 Entertainment for Adults

And these entertainments will suit the company of different ages. Their goal is to give the opportunity to express themselves "to the fullest." Choose from the following ideas.

Playing out a fairy tale

Write the script of the future performance in advance. You can take any popular fairy tale as a basis and remake it for the appropriate occasion. As an option, give “Kurochka Ryaba” an anti-alcohol focus: grandma and grandpa could not break a testicle, because they “strongly” celebrated the New Year. Or transfer the plot to other conditions: Gingerbread Man was actually supposed to be the main dish on festive table. Be sure to prepare primitive costumes (the main thing is to designate the characters), and play the roles of actors and spectators among the guests in the lottery.

We dance until we drop

Arrange fun dance competitions to the most famous melodies of the countries of the world. For example, men will be able to compete in the performance of "gypsies", and ladies - "lezginkas". If “both old and young” are present at the celebration, invite everyone to warm up to the dance of little ducklings or “lambada”. The main thing here is to ignite others with your own example and “drag” guests from their settled sofas and armchairs.

Sing like stars

How else to entertain guests at home for the New Year, if not by singing songs under karaoke! Include songs from the films “Enjoy Your Bath”, “Magicians”, the cartoons “Well, wait a minute” (a duet of the Snow Maiden and Santa Claus), “Vacation in Prostokvashino” (“If there was no winter”) and other hits from the New Year theme. Prizes for the best performance are obligatory!

1:502 1:507

To make New Year's Eve rich and fun, and your guests will remember it for a long time, write out the scenario of the holiday in advance, having thought through every detail: the sequence of events (feast, congratulations, presenting gifts), make a selection of music for dancing, and of course, do not forget about funny contests and games that will charge you and your guests with positive and will not let you get bored.

1:1203 1:1208

New Year Party Contests

1:1286

If you still decide to add funny contests to your list of New Year's entertainment, take note of one piece of advice: so that your fun goes to “Hurrah!”, choose the right time to start the sports and entertainment program.

1:1736

1:4

Too sober guests may simply not decide on your non-standard entertainment, and pretty tipsy guests simply will not be able to do anything even with a strong desire.

1:329 1:334

Therefore, remember the following algorithm: as soon as the second toast is announced and glasses are raised, you can safely offer your guests table games. After the next serving of salad - get out from the table and take on more active games; well, when you listen to the congratulations of the president, and the chimes will notify you of the onset of the new year - go out to frolic on the street.

1:1043 1:1048

One more tip: include as few "alcoholic" contests as possible in your entertainment program, otherwise you will not realize even half of your plans.

2:1454

In addition to the fact that the guest should brag about what desire he had and will surely come true in a new goal, he must, having shown imagination and ingenuity, explain how “someone else's desire” can fit into his life.

And behind her needle.
Farewell, the trumpet is calling.
Soldiers, march!

Many of us think about how exactly to celebrate the New Year long before its onset - but often this only applies to the choice of outfit and festive menu. And yet, the celebration will be much more fun and entertaining if you have prepared exciting contests for the New Year. At the same time, it does not matter at all in which company you plan to celebrate the New Year - in the family circle or with friends - after all, fun is appropriate everywhere.

Of course, it should be taken into account that there are very shy people, and participation in such events causes them to panic - treat other people's desires with respect, and if you see that a person is not inclined to take part in active competitions, then do not insist, believing that he will "get involved". Moreover, in addition to active and mobile competitions, there are others that do not require special movement - for example, riddles for ingenuity. Choose a varied program in which any participant in the celebration will find something interesting for themselves! If you want your fun to be remembered for a long time, then do not forget to take a photo of what is happening. By the way, this task can be entrusted to especially shy guests who do not want to participate in the general "madness" - this way they will feel like a part of what is happening and at the same time not feel tense or uncomfortable. In general, take care of the holiday program in advance, as well as small gifts for the winners, and your efforts will be remembered by all guests for a long time!

Cool contests for the New Year

Competitions for the family at the table

1. New Year's predictions. For this part of the New Year's program, you should prepare in advance. You will have two bags at hand (you can replace them with hats), in which you should put papers with notes. So, put pieces of paper with the names of the participants in the prediction in one bag, and with the prophecies themselves in the other. The bags are passed around the table in a circle, and all the guests take a piece of paper from each. First, the name written on it is read from the first piece of paper, and then the prospects that await the owner of this name in the New Year are voiced from the second.

2. Honest recognition. This game also requires preliminary preparation - write funny words on small pieces of paper (kikimora, deer, capricious, booger, and so on). So, someone pulls out a candy wrapper with one of the words (for example, capricious), and with a serious face, looking into the eyes of his neighbor, says to him: “I am capricious.” If no one laughs, then the neighbor picks up the baton, and this continues in a circle until someone laughs. After that, the fun starts again laughing.

3. Phrases-congratulations. This is a very funny competition in which it is better to know when to stop. Fill your glasses and make a celebratory toast. Each person sitting at the common table should say the congratulation phrase in turn, but it is important that they begin with letters in alphabetical order (first a toast is pronounced with the letter “A”, the next participant says a toast with the letter “B”, and so on until everyone speaks). The next round of toasts is allowed to start with the letter where you left off. Prepare small prizes in advance - each time one of them should be received by the person who came up with the funniest toast "for the circle".

4. Guess the riddle. For this competition, you should stock up on ordinary balloons, as well as small notes with funny riddles. Roll up the papers and put them inside the balloon, subsequently inflating it. The participant needs to burst the balloon and guess the riddle. If the answer does not sound from his mouth, then he will need to complete the task invented by all the participants in the game. Examples of such funny riddles: “What does a student have in common with a lizard?” (The ability to get rid of the “tail” in time), “How many pairs of shoes does a woman need to be happy?” (One pair more than already available), "What goes from one city to another, but remains without movement?" (road) and so on. You can either come up with such riddles yourself or download them below.

New contests for 2018 for adults

1. Drunk checkers. For this entertainment, you will need a real checkers board, only the checkers themselves are replaced by piles. How to distinguish between white and black new-found "checkers"? Blacks are replaced with stacks of red wine, and whites with white. The rules are the same as in regular checkers, but if you get your opponent's checker, you will have to drink it! Of course, it is not necessary to use wine - it can be any alcoholic beverage, just different in color.

2. Carried. For this competition, you will need two radio-controlled cars. Play, respectively, two people, each of whom puts on his typewriter a pile of alcoholic drink. Now a certain point is randomly selected in the room, which will become the final destination for the cars. The goal is to drive your car to the finish line without spilling your drink. The winner drinks their stack. Then the baton passes to the next pair and so on.

3. What's in my mouth. To conduct a competition for the New Year, prepare in advance a separate container with products that will be used in this experiment, but will not be on the festive table. Let it be seven or eight unusual products. The player is blindfolded, and you give him a taste of this or that food - the contestant must guess at the first attempt what exactly is offered to him. Other products can be used with the next player. Whoever gives the most correct answers wins.

Funny and interesting games

1. Snowballs. The competition will be held indoors, and, of course, not with real snowballs, but there is still an alternative - just crumple napkins or paper towels (this material should be stocked up in advance). You will also need chairs according to the number of players, who, in turn, should be divided into two teams. The contestants of one team stand in a line on their chairs, and the participants of the second, in turn, try to hit the opponents with a snowball. By the way, the "targets" have the ability to dodge the snowball. When all the opponents on the chairs are defeated, the teams change places. The team with the highest performance will win (more snowballs reached the goal).

2. Roll the ball. Competition for several couples. Each team is given two balls, which are usually used to play ping-pong. The man should roll the ball from the left sleeve of the companion to the right, and the woman should roll the second ball from the right leg of the partner to the left. The team that manages to cope faster wins.

3. Clothespins. Another game for couples. The contestants are blindfolded, and clothespins cling to any part of the clothing of all players. After the beep, you must try to remove all the clothespins from the partner. The pair that completes the task faster than the others wins. Of course, you need a leader who will control this process.

4. To the touch. Two players are blindfolded and put on thick gloves or mittens on their hands. Guests stand in front of each contestant, and 10 seconds are given to guess each guest by touch. Players take turns playing. The participant who completes the task faster will win. Subsequently, the next pair of players is determined.

5. Pop the balloon. For the game, heterosexual couples are chosen, who are given balloon. The “props” of the couple must be squeezed between their bodies, and according to sound signal balls need to "burst". The pair that gets it right first wins. This is followed by the second round with a complicated task: you need to “pop” the balls with your backs or even priests.

New Year's contests for a fun company

1. New Year's crocodile. A well-known entertainment that will appeal to contestants of all ages! So, we remind you the principle of this rather simple and exciting game. Participants are divided into two teams, each of which selects one person. The host says a word to the chosen ones, and they must “show” it to their teams without making any sounds. The team that completes the task faster will win. You can play differently - one of the participants "shows" the word to everyone else, and the one who guesses first wins. To avoid suspicions that the word was invented on the go, we recommend that you write it down in advance on a piece of paper. Because we are talking about the meeting of the New Year, then it is advisable to come up with words on this topic.

2. Bows. Funny and funny fun. To participate in the game, you need at least six people, so that they are divided into teams of three. The gender of the players does not matter. One of the participants stands in the middle of the room, while two of his teammates are blindfolded. One of the partners is given ten ribbons, and he, on a sound signal, must tie them on the one who is standing in the middle of the room. The second partner, who is also blindfolded, looks for bows by touch and unties them. In the second command, similar actions occur. The company that completes the task first will win.

3. Blind drawing. The competition is played by two people. So, the participants are tied hands behind their backs and placed behind them on an easel. Now the players must arm themselves with felt-tip pens (hands remain behind their backs) and draw on the canvas the symbol of the coming year - the Dog. The rest of the guests should act as fans and suggest in which direction the contestants should draw further - to the left, higher, and so on. The player who manages to more accurately portray the cheerful guardian of 2018 will win. Then the next pair of contestants enter the game, and the competition follows a similar principle.

4. Hat. Another exciting competition, in which absolutely everyone celebrating can become participants. The essence of the entertainment is quite simple - the players must pass each other a hat, putting it on the head of a neighbor without the help of the palms (you can use your elbows, mouth). The one who drops the hat is out. The winner is the participant who ends up alone. Of course, this game is unlikely to appeal to ladies who decide to make a complex hairstyle, but, as you know, New Year's hairstyles in 2018 imply simplicity and carelessness, so there should not be any particular difficulties.

5. Song in a hat. A very funny and memorable competition, which will especially appeal to people who love to demonstrate their vocal talents. In advance, you need to stock up on small pieces of paper, on each of which you should write a word. Since it is about winter holiday, then you can write words related to this topic: Christmas tree, Olivier, cold, snowflakes, reindeer, and so on. Put all these candy wrappers in a hat, and invite each guest to take out a piece of paper in turn. Now the contestant must perform a small song, invented personally on the go, be sure to use the word that he got several times.

Children's games for New Year's celebration

Check out our list of new fun activities for kids.

Draw the symbol of the New Year

As you know, children like to portray various characters, so, for sure, they will take part in this competition with special enthusiasm. Tell the kids that the symbol of the upcoming New Year 2018 is a dog, and invite them to depict this animal, as well as talk about it. The participant who manages to most reliably show an adult dog or puppy will become the winner of the competition. However, there may be several winners. Of course, do not forget to prepare some sweet incentive prizes for the most diligent guys.

sweets

This game is more suitable for children of primary school age, and not for toddlers who have just learned to walk. The fact is that this entertainment involves a clear coordination of movements and the ability to control their actions. Also note that only one child can play the game. So, first hang a couple of your child's favorite candies on the Christmas tree - the child should not see exactly where you placed them. Blindfold the baby and bring him to the Christmas tree, offering to find candy on the tree for a certain time. Of course, the player will have to act very carefully so as not to damage the toys, not to overwhelm the Christmas tree itself, or not to fall down.

round dance

This game has many variations. For example, "Mice lead a round dance." First, with the help of a counting rhyme, you need to choose a “cat” among the children. "Cat" sits on a chair or directly on the floor, closing his eyes. Other participants turn out to be "mice", who begin to dance around the "cat", saying:

"Mice lead a round dance,
The cat is sleeping on the stove.
Hush mouse, do not make noise,
Don't wake cat Vaska
How Vaska the cat wakes up -
Will break the whole round dance!

When the last words of the final phrase begin to sound, the cat stretches and on the last word "Round dance" opens its eyes and runs after the mice that are trying to escape. The caught "mouse" turns into a cat, and so on in a circle.

Drawing or letter to Santa Claus

Most likely, all children will like such entertainment, but for it you should stock up on pieces of paper and felt-tip pens or colored pencils in advance. Tell the children that now they have to prepare a letter for Santa Claus, but you don’t need to write anything in it - you just need a drawing. In this picture, invite the children to depict how they see the coming New Year and what they want. We can talk about some trips, gifts and the like. Immediately specify that, most likely, Santa Claus will not be able to fulfill all the desires, but he will still take some of them into account.

Making a snowman

Building a snowman is fun and exciting, even when it's not about winter outdoor activities. For this game you will need softened plasticine. So, two participants get down to business, who sit at the table next to each other (you can even hug). Now these players must act as one. Right hand let one kid and the left of the other act as if it were the hands of one person - the guys will have to mold a snowman from plasticine in this way. The task is quite difficult, but if the kids start acting together, then everything will certainly work out!

Competition for the best snowflake

Most children love to do crafts with their own hands. Tell the children to decorate the room they are playing in with snowflakes. Of course, for this, those very snowflakes will first need to be made. You can show yourself a master class on exactly how to cut these snowflakes, or just set the general direction and let the little ones do their thing. Even if the result is far from perfect, in no case do you need to declare it - together with the children, decorate the room with the snowflakes that they made (stick them to the window, hang them on strings to the chandelier, and so on). Also encourage the most beautiful works with sweet prizes.

Contest - guess the hero

For this activity, have the young participants sit in a circle. Now invite the players to each in turn say the continuation of the name fairy tale character, for example; “Zo (lushka)”, “Little Red Riding Hood”, “White (snowball)” and so on. The child who could not give the correct answer is eliminated from the game, but those children who remained continue the competition. It is important for you to take into account the fact that you will have to ask a lot of questions, so you will have to prepare in advance by writing names for yourself on a piece of paper. fairytale heroes. If there are many children, then it is not necessary to wait until one winner remains - you can indicate in advance that, for example, the remaining three will win.

hide and seek

Perhaps it is difficult to find a person who has never heard of such fun. However, the principle of this entertainment is quite simple and is already hidden in its name alone. So, while one kid counts, for example, up to ten, closing his eyes or hiding in one of the rooms, the other guys scatter around the house and hide. When the set time passes, the child goes in search of his friends - the one who is found first is considered the loser. You can start the game again already on this one, or you can continue to search for other participants. The child who was discovered first, subsequently takes up the search himself, also counting to ten.

Fun entertainment for a corporate party

If you want your corporate party to be fun and unforgettable, check out some exciting games.

1. Mandarin relay. We offer very interesting option this entertainment that requires two teams with the same number participants. From each team, a player is put up, who puts a tangerine in a spoon, and holds the spoon itself with both hands. Now the opponents must reach a certain landmark with a spoon and back to their team without dropping the citrus - if this happens, then the loser with the spoon returns to the starting point. Having reached the landmark and back, the participant passes the spoon to the next player. The team that manages to complete the task first will win. Note that when transferring a tangerine, nothing can hold it.

2. Bottle. This is a fairly well-known game that laid the foundation for many office romances. Whatever it was, but it's really fun entertainment. So, at least 4-6 people take part in the game, who should sit in a circle, after which one of them spins the bottle lying in the center of the circle clockwise. As a result, the player who set the bottle in motion will have to kiss the person whom, like an arrow, the stopped neck of the vessel will point to (or the person of the opposite sex closest to the pointer). After that, it is proposed to twist the bottle to the one who fell under “its sight”.

3. Comic forfeits with predictions about work. Many of us have a positive attitude towards various kinds of predictions, and some believe in them. The New Year has long been directly associated with all sorts of fortune-telling, and let your corporate evening be no exception, despite the fact that the predictions will be made in a comic form. How exactly to give forfeits, it's up to you. Anyone can take a note with a prophecy from the bag. In addition, you can make a special fairly simple cookie with such predictions. Write only positive predictions related to work - about a salary increase, about new ideas, and the like.

4. Lottery competition. A very interesting lottery, which, for sure, will cause positive feelings among its participants. Having made a list of participants for the upcoming holiday in advance, ask each guest to come with their craft, packed in a colorful wrapper. However, for this draw it is not at all necessary to use crafts - we can talk about souvenirs or sweets in a certain price range. Stick numbers on all bundles, and write the same numbers on small pieces of paper. Subsequently, each participant in the lottery will have to pull out his number from a special bag or just a hat.

5. The game "I never ...". A very popular and exciting game that you could see in some foreign films. Each participant in the festive evening must say a confession phrase that begins with the words: "I have never ...". Example: "I've never slept in a tent." People to whom this statement does not apply take a sip of wine. Further, a certain confession is made by the next participant in the party, and those guests, to whom the next confession is not related, again take a sip of wine. Phrases can be fun, but each time they should be more personal, such as: "I never slept naked." However, you should not get too carried away, so as not to give out your biggest secrets.
