Each child takes turns saying the word “mother,” and the parent must recognize her child by his voice.
Game "Find Mom"
The goal of the game is the same as in the previous lesson, only this time the blindfolded baby must recognize his mother by her voice. The parents take turns calling the child's name.
A variation of this activity is when the leader lets all the blindfolded children into a circle of mothers, where they must guess who is whose mother by touch. When the baby chooses the woman who, in his opinion, is his mother, he must hug her, remove the blindfold and make sure that his choice is correct.
Family creativity
Participants are divided into two teams, each of which consists of a mother and her child. The presenter gives the players tasks that they must complete together in a certain amount of time - 1, 5, 10 minutes, etc. (depending on the complexity of the task). Examples of tasks: draw a picture of a non-existent animal from specific geometric shapes, draw the most objects of one color (only red, only green), make a craft from plasticine or paper.

The winner is the team that plays out the fairy tale in the form of a mini-play in the most funny and cheerful way.
Train
The game participants are divided into two equal groups. The players of each group hold on to each other and form one chain with their arms bent at the elbows. Stronger and more dexterous participants – “groovy” ones – become ahead of the chain. Standing opposite each other, the “clockwork” also takes each other’s arms bent at the elbows and each pulls in their own direction, trying to either break the opponent’s chain or pull it over the intended line. Rule: start pulling exactly at the signal.

The ships tacked and tacked, but did not tack. He reported, but didn’t report enough, but when he started to report more, he reported.
Night travel
The presenter says that the driver will have to drive at night without lighting, so the player is blindfolded. But first, the driver is introduced to a freeway made from sports pins. Handing the steering wheel to the driver, the presenter offers to practice and drive so that not a single post is knocked down. The player is then blindfolded and brought to the steering wheel. The presenter gives a command - a hint where to turn to the driver, warns about danger. When the path has been completed, the leader unties the driver's eyes. Then the next participants in the game “go”. The one who knocks down the pins the least wins.
Sharp shooters

Game "Merry Orchestra"
An unlimited number of people participate in the game. A conductor is selected, the remaining participants are divided into balalaika players, accordionists, trumpeters, violinists, etc., depending on the number of participants. At a signal from the conductor, who points to a group of musicians, they begin to “play” to the tune of any famous song: balalaika players - “Trem, shake”, violinists - “tili-tili”, trumpeters - “turu-ru”, accordionists - “tra- la-la." The difficulty of the task is that the pace of change of musicians is constantly increasing, the conductor points first to one group, then to the other, and if the conductor waves both hands, then the musicians must “play” all together. You can make the task more difficult: if the conductor waves his hand strongly, then the musicians must “play” loudly, and if he waves his hand a little, then the musicians “play” quietly.
Game "Collect a bouquet"
2 teams of 8 people each participate. 1 child in the team is a gardener, the rest are flowers. On the heads of the flower children are hats with images of flowers. Flower children squat in a column, one at a time, at a considerable distance from each other. At a signal, the gardeners run to the first flower, which grabs the gardener’s back. Already the two of them run to the next flower, etc. The team that runs to the finish line first wins.
ring
You will need a long cord and a ring. Thread the cord through the ring and tie the ends. Children sit in a circle and place a cord with a ring on their knees. In the center of the circle is the driver. Children, unnoticed by the driver, move the ring from one to another (not necessarily in one direction, you can move the ring in different directions). At the same time, music sounds, and the driver carefully monitors the movements of the ring. As soon as the music stops, the ring also stops. The driver must indicate who currently has the ring. If you guess right, you change places with the one who had the ring.
And I!
A game of attentiveness. Rules of the game: the presenter tells a story about himself, preferably a fable. During the story, he pauses and raises his hand up. The rest should listen carefully and, when the leader raises his hand up, shout “and I” if the action mentioned in the story can be performed by a person or remain silent if the action is not suitable. For example, the presenter says: “Once I went into the forest... Everyone: “Me too!” I see a squirrel sitting on a tree... -...? The squirrel sits and gnaws nuts... -.... - She saw me and let’s throw nuts at me... -...? - I ran away from her... -...? - I went in the other direction... -.... — I’m walking through the forest, picking flowers… — … — I’m singing songs… — …. — I see a little goat nibbling the grass... -...? - As soon as I whistle... -.... — The kid got scared and galloped away... -...? - And I moved on... - ... There are no winners in this game - the main thing is a cheerful mood.
Repeat
Children stand in one line. By lot or counting, I choose the first participant. He faces everyone and performs some movement, for example: clapping his hands, jumping on one leg, turning his head, raising his arms, etc. Then he stands in his place, and the next player takes his place. He repeats the movement of the first participant and adds his own. The third player repeats the two previous gestures and adds his own, and so do the rest of the game participants in turn. When the whole team has finished showing, the game can go on for the second round. A player who fails to repeat any gesture is eliminated from the game. The winner is the last child standing.
Sparrows and crows
You can play alone with a child, but it’s better with a group. Agree in advance what the sparrows will do and what the crows will do. For example, with the command “Sparrows,” children will lie down on the floor. And when the Crows command, climb onto the bench. Now you can start the game. An adult slowly pronounces, syllable by syllable, “Vo - ro - ... ny!” Children must quickly perform the movement that was assigned to the crows. Whoever completed it last or got it wrong pays a forfeit.
Plucking feathers
You will need clothespins. Several children will be catchers. They are given clothespins, which they attach to their clothes. If the catcher catches one of the children, he attaches a clothespin to his clothes. The first catcher to free himself from his clothespins wins.
Looking for the ball
The participants of the game stand in a circle and close their eyes. The leader takes a small ball or any other small object and throws it further to the side. Everyone listens carefully, trying to guess by the sound where the ball fell. At the command “Look!” children run in different directions, looking for the ball. The winner is the one who finds it, quietly runs up to a pre-agreed place and knocks with a stick with the words “The ball is mine!” If other players guess who has the ball, then they try to catch up with him and make fun of him. Then the ball goes to the player who caught up. Now he is running away from the others.
Glomerulus
Children are divided into pairs. Each pair is given a ball of thread and a thick pencil. At the leader’s signal, the children begin to rewind the ball onto a pencil. One of the children holds the ball, the second winds the thread around the pencil. The pair that completes the job the fastest wins. A second prize can be awarded for the neatest ball.
Two rams
This game can be played in pairs taking turns. Two children, with their legs spread wide apart, bend their torsos forward and rest their foreheads against each other. Hands clasped behind back. The task is to confront each other without budging for as long as possible. You can make the sounds “Bee-ee”.
Potato
Invite the children to test their attentiveness, observation and reaction speed. It's very easy to do. Let the guys answer any of your questions: “Potatoes.” Questions can be addressed to everyone, and sometimes it is better to ask one. For example: “What do you have in this place?” (pointing to his nose). The reaction is not hard to imagine. Whoever makes a mistake leaves the game. Do not forget to forgive the most inattentive ones after the first two questions, otherwise you will have no one to continue the game with. Here are some questions you can ask: - What did you have for lunch today? -What would you like to eat for dinner? - Who is this who is late and is entering the hall now? — What did your mother bring you as a gift? -What do you dream about at night? — What is the name of your favorite dog? … and so on. At the end of the game, give the winners - the most attentive guys - a comic prize - a potato.
Truckers
Plastic cups or small buckets of water filled to the brim are placed on children's trucks. Ropes of the same length (according to the child’s height) are tied to the cars. On command, you must quickly “carry the load” from start to finish, trying not to spill the water. The winner is the one who reaches the finish line the fastest and does not spill the water. You can make two prizes - for speed and for accuracy.

Clever janitor
To play, you need to prepare a broom and “leaves” (You can use small pieces of paper). A circle is drawn - this is the place of the “janitor.” The janitor is selected. The “janitor” stands in a circle with a broom. At the leader’s signal, the rest of the participants pretend to be the “wind,” that is, they throw pieces of paper into the circle, and the “janitor” sweeps out the trash. The “janitor” is considered the winner if after the agreed time (1-2 minutes) there is not a single piece of paper in the circle.

His task is to show this word to his team members only with gestures, without using any sounds or words. When the word is guessed, the teams change places. Depending on the age of the participants, the complexity of the hidden words may vary. Starting with simple words and concepts, such as “car”, “house”, and ending with complex concepts, names of films, cartoons, books.

Those who jump at random are eliminated, the winner is the last player - the most attentive.
Drawing a portrait
Participants try to draw a portrait of any of those sitting opposite. Then the leaves are sent in a circle. Everyone will try to write on the reverse side who they recognize in this portrait. When the leaves go around the circle and return to the author, he will count the number of votes of the participants who recognized the one drawn. The best artist wins.
Lock
Players are given a bunch of keys and a locked padlock. It is necessary to pick up the key from the bunch and open the lock as quickly as possible. You can put a lock on the cabinet where the prize is hidden.
Sniper
All players close their eyes and pull matches from the pile one at a time. You cannot show your match to your neighbor. One of the matches is broken, and the one who takes it out becomes a sniper. Then everyone opens their eyes and the day begins. A sniper can kill a player by looking into his eyes and winking. The “killed” person leaves the game and loses the right to vote. If one of the players witnesses a “murder”, he has the right to say loudly about it, at this moment the game stops (that is, the sniper cannot kill anyone), and the players find out if there are any more witnesses. If not, the game continues, and if there is, the angry players lynch the suspect, taking the match away from him and thus finding out whether they made a mistake. The sniper's task is to shoot everyone before he is exposed, the task of everyone else is to expose the sniper before he shoots everyone.
Chinese football
The players stand in a circle facing outward, with their feet shoulder-width apart, so that each foot stands close to the symmetrical leg of its neighbor. Inside the circle there is a ball, which the players try to score into each other’s goal (that is, roll the ball between their legs with their hands). The one between whose legs the ball rolls removes one hand, after the second goal - the second, and after the third - leaves the game.
Aram-shim-shim
The players stand in a circle, alternating by gender (that is, boy-girl-boy-girl, and so on), with the driver in the center. The players rhythmically clap their hands and say the following words in chorus: “Aram-shim-shim, aram-shim-shim, Arameya-Zufiya, point to me!” And again! And two! And three!”, at this time the driver, closing his eyes and pointing his hands forward, rotates in place, and when the text ends, he stops and opens his eyes. The representative of the opposite sex closest in the direction of rotation to the place shown to them also goes to the center, where they stand back to back. Then everyone else claps their hands again, saying in unison: “And once! And two! And three!". On the count of three, those standing in the center turn their heads to the sides. If they looked in different directions, then the driver kisses (usually on the cheek) the one who came out, if in one direction, they shake hands. After which the driver stands in a circle, and the one who leaves becomes the driver. There is also a version of the game in which for representatives of the stronger sex, spinning in is replaced by “Wider, wider, wider circle! He has seven hundred girlfriends! This one, this one, this one, this one, and my favorite one is this one!”, although in general it doesn’t matter. When playing the game at a younger age, it makes sense to replace kisses with scary faces that the two in the center make at each other.
And I'm going
The players stand in a circle facing inward. One of the seats remains free. The one standing to the right of the free space says loudly, “And I’m coming!” and goes over to him. The next one (that is, the one who is now standing to the right of the empty seat) loudly says “Me too!” and moves on to him, the next one says “And I’m a hare!” and also takes place on the right. The next one, moving on, says “And I’m with...” and names someone from those standing in the circle. The task of the one who was named is to run to an empty place. In this game, you can add a driver who will wedge into an empty seat when someone is thinking too long.
Game "Lanterns"
This game involves 2 teams. Each team has 3 yellow balls. At the command of the presenter, the audience begins to pass the balls from hand to hand from the first row to the last. You need to pass the balls (fire) with your hands raised and return them back in the same way, without extinguishing the fire (i.e. without bursting the ball).
Competition "Who can collect coins faster"
The competition is open to 2 people (more is possible). Game coins made of thick paper are scattered around the site. The participants' task is to collect money blindfolded. The one who collects the most coins the fastest wins. This competition can be repeated 2 - 3 times.
Rain
The players are free to sit in the room. When the text begins, everyone performs voluntary movements. With the last word “stopped,” all movements stop, the participants in the game seem to freeze. The presenter, passing by them, notices the one who moved. He leaves the game. A wide variety of movements can be used, but always while standing still. At the end of the game, the presenter also marks those who performed the most beautiful or complex movements. Text: Rain, rain, droplet, Water saber, I cut a puddle, I cut a puddle, I cut, I cut, I didn’t cut, And I got tired and stopped!
Surprise
A rope is stretched across the room, to which various small prizes are tied on strings. Children take turns being blindfolded, given scissors, and with their eyes closed, they cut off their prize. (Be careful, do not leave children alone while playing this game!).
Cockroach race
For this game you will need 4 matchboxes and 2 threads (for two participants). The thread is tied to the belt in front, and a matchbox is tied to the other end of the thread so that it hangs between the legs. The second box is placed on the floor. Swinging boxes between their legs like a pendulum, participants must push boxes lying on the floor. Whoever covers the pre-determined distance faster is considered the winner.
Fishing
A deep plate is placed on a chair, participants must take turns throwing a button or a bottle cap into it from a distance of 2-3 meters, trying to hit it so that the button remains in the plate. This simple game is very captivating and exciting for kids.
Watchman
The guys sit on chairs so that a circle is formed. There must be a player behind each person sitting on a chair, and one chair must be free. The player standing behind him must discreetly wink at any of those sitting in the circle. All seated participants must face the player with an empty chair. A sitting participant, seeing that he has been winked at, must quickly take an empty seat. The functions of the players standing behind those sitting are to prevent their players from going to empty seats. To do this, they just have to put their hand on the shoulder of the person sitting. If the “guard” does not release the “fugitive”, they change places.
One - knee, two - knee
Everyone sits down on chairs again in a tight circle. Then everyone should place their hand on the right knee of the person on their left. Did you put it in? So, now, starting with the counselor, a light hand clap should pass clockwise across all knees in turn. First - the counselor’s right hand, then the left hand of his neighbor on the right, then the right hand of the neighbor on the left, then the counselor’s left hand, etc. The first round is held so that the guys understand how to act. After this the game begins. The one who made a mistake during the game removes the hand that either delayed its clap or made it earlier. If a player removes both hands, he leaves the circle and the game continues. To complicate the task, the counselor gives the count faster and faster, under which the clap should be made. The last three players standing win.
Figures
The players stand in a circle. A rope is stretched inside the circle, which everyone holds on to with their hands. The presenter explains that it is necessary, with your eyes closed, without opening your hands, to build a square, an equilateral triangle, a star, using only oral conversations.
A codeword
The guys come up with a code word together, for example, “corn.” Then the leader explains the rule: the leader gives commands, but these commands need to be executed only if the leader pronounces a code word before the command. For example, the leader says: “corn”, hands up, and the children raise their hands up, and if the leader says: jump on the left foot, the children should not follow the command, since the code word was not said. The leader must give commands quickly, trying to confuse the children, so that sooner or later someone will get confused and carry out the command without a code word. Anyone who executes a command without a code word is eliminated from the game, and the most attentive participants who remain in the game until the end are awarded prizes.
What are we talking about?
In advance, the teacher or presenter asks the children the meaning of words (how they understand them), for example, what is love? What is money? What is a circus? And so on. Then the presenter processes the information and, as they say, inserts a word from each child into the designation of each word. For example, this is when they hug, dance and eat together, buy each other gifts; this is something that you cannot do without in life, they are used everywhere, in cinemas, on attractions, in stores, this is something that some give, while others take, and so on. The presenter reads out the wording of each of the “secret” words in turn, and the parents must guess what they are talking about. There is a prize for the parent for the correct answer.
Heels and toes
The guys are divided into equal numbers of team members. Each team stands in a separate row (one after the other). At the same distance from each team there is a chair with the same number of candies (the number of candies is equal to the number of team members). The presenter explains a simple rule: the first participants run on their toes, the second - on their heels, the third on their toes, the fourth - on their heels, and so on through one on their toes - on their heels. At the command “start”, the first participants run on their tiptoes to their chair, take the candy and run back to their team, pass the baton to the second participants and stand at the end of the team. Then the second participants run, only on their heels, take the candy and back to their team, pass the baton and stand at the end of the team. The team that runs faster than the rest on their toes and heels and collects all their candies, and the first participant in the team will again be in first place and become the winner.
Children's competitions for Mother's Day in elementary school, options
Funny children's competitions for Mother's Day are also relevant for the holiday in elementary school. Moreover, the age of younger schoolchildren already allows for more active and interesting competitions, including team competitions. For example, you can divide all participants into mother-child pairs or into teams of adults and children. Next, you will find several options for children's competitions for Mother's Day in elementary school, which will make the holiday brighter and more fun.
Cook from birth
This option is perfect for competition between child-mother pairs. All participants are given approximately the same set of simple products with a small “surprise” in the form of products that cannot be combined with others. For example, a lot of fruits and herring or vegetables and ice cream. The task of each pair is to prepare an edible dish from this set. In this case, the child must cook himself according to his mother’s promptings. The most creative couple wins.
Half a word, half a glance...
Again pairs of children and parents participate. The children are given a piece of paper with a word, which they will then have to show to their mothers through facial expressions and gestures. It is better to take the names of songs or films whose themes are suitable for Mother's Day. Participants perform in turns and for a time. The most resourceful couple wins.
Beauty salon for daughter
Mothers and daughters are invited to participate. The task of the first ones is to apply full makeup to the second ones in 5 minutes. In this case, not only speed is assessed, but also the technique of completing the task.
