You can hold creative games and competitions for children for the holiday. Invite the teams to quickly make a congratulatory banner for the birthday boy. Let them show their abilities and sense of beauty. Give each team the same set: paints, brushes, felt-tip pens, whatman paper or a roll of unnecessary wallpaper. Assemble a jury of adults and let them make their verdict.
"Dozen"
Older children are not always interested in participating in children's competitions. At the age of 12, children already begin to turn into teenagers, and their interests change. We need to come up with interesting games and competitions for children 12 years old. Such that they will definitely want to participate.
Children are divided into teams. The leader gives them a sheet of paper and a pen. Each participant writes any edible product and folds the piece of paper. Then the teams exchange leaves and unfold them. From this set of products, they must come up with a signature dish in a minute, tell a detailed recipe, and give it a chic name. The most original culinary masterpiece wins!
"Testing intelligence"
Gather all the children in a circle, sit back and have a fairytale quiz. The presenter asks leading questions or reads a quote from a fairy tale. The guys must guess the name of the fairy tale. For each correct answer the player receives a candy wrapper. At the end, we carry out calculations and identify the most ardent lover of fairy tales. The winner receives a prize!
Each child in turn must remember a proverb, saying or line from a song related to animals. Anyone who cannot remember anything within a minute is out of the game.
Invite the children to play "Changes". The presenter says a phrase, and the guys must redo it exactly the opposite! For example:
- sad girls - cheerful guys;
- fat woman - thin man;
- a mouse without sandals is a cat in boots.
Attentiveness
Let's check the children's attentiveness. On a huge tray, arrange various items, from large to tiny. Let the children admire them for a minute, and then cover the tray with a blanket and invite the children to write down all the items on the tray on a piece of paper. The one with the most impressive list wins.
Give children as much attention as possible. They will remember every birthday and family holiday for the rest of their lives! Competitions, games, quizzes for children are a very exciting activity. While the kids are having fun and winning prizes, the adults can relax a little and have a heart-to-heart talk! The above games-competitions for Children's Day and birthdays are suitable for any other holiday.
"Balloon Battle"
Divide the room into two parts, give each team five huge colored balls. Their task: while the music is playing, you need to move the balls to the enemy’s side without crossing the line marked on the floor. It turns out to be a very cheerful mess. It is better to hold such competition games for children 10 years old, since younger children may fall and get injured.
Holy holiday
The first day of summer gives the little inhabitants of the earth a joyful holiday. Games and competitions are held on Children's Day in more than thirty countries. Everywhere there are all kinds of fun concerts and events, music and laughter. This is the best holiday for children. The kids are given gifts and sweets.
The most common competition, which is held annually on June 1, is drawing on asphalt. In each city there is a special area where children use crayons to depict nature, family and friends, animals and their dreams.
If it is not possible to arrange a drawing competition for children on the asphalt, then give each person a sheet of whatman paper. Friendship will win, of course. But the guys will try their best.
Games and competitions for Children's Day should be simple and understandable. There is no need to invent something supernatural. Let the children have fun on this day, flutter around and not feel a sense of competition.
Anniversary
Your child is already 10 years old. Time flies by at lightning speed, and so does childhood. Games and competitions for children 10 years old should not be entirely childish. After all, a serious adult hero of the day will participate in them!
Invite the children to go into the forest to pick mushrooms. The presenter hides cardboard mushrooms in the room in advance. They can be hung and laid out anywhere. The main thing is to find a more secluded place. The guys entering the room must find as many mushrooms as possible. Whoever turns out to be the best finder will receive a prize!
