You can come up with many scenarios for holding a children's birthday. Here are some options: “Birthday cake is missing”, “Treasure hunt”, “Wish fulfillment fairy is missing” and others. Let's look at the missing birthday cake.
You can invite an animator or entertain the children yourself.
We lead the children with leading questions to blow out the candles on the birthday cake. We solemnly bring in a beautiful box in which there is supposed to be a cake, but (oh, horror!) there is none. The box contains only a few crumbs and a mysterious note. Please read the note from the older child. It says something like this: “I took your cake. Complete my tasks to get it back. Kira." Kira is a doll that is worn on the hand. You can take any one - an animal, a girl or a boy.
A moment later, the culprit of the loss appears on the hand of one of the parents. Kira meets the children and offers various competitions for them to return the birthday cake.
After completing all the competitions, the toy is given up and the cake is returned (it is in another room with lit candles).
Competitions
"Move the Egg"
At one end of the room there are 2 stools with empty plates (it is better to take plastic or metal ones) and at the other there are also 2 stools with plates containing boiled eggs (according to the number of participants). Children are divided into 2 teams. Each person is asked to transfer an egg in a spoon from one plate to another. The winning team receives a prize or medal.
"Gather the Leaves"
It is necessary to scatter leaves cut out of colored paper, on the back of some you need to draw a certain sign-symbol. Children are invited to help the doll collect leaves. The child who finds a sheet with a sign-symbol is awarded a sweet prize (wafer, candy, marmalade - to choose from).
"Put your nose on"
You can attach not only a nose, but also an eye, mouth, eyebrows, hairstyle, ears and so on. A face (of a clown, doll, fairy-tale character) is drawn in advance on a piece of Whatman paper, but without a nose. Each of the children needs to try to glue a nose made of plasticine (dough) onto the drawing, blindfolded. The winner is the one who attached the nose closer to its actual location on the face. The prize can be a medal or the “Most Accurate” order.
"Rabbits"
The doll misses its best friend, the rabbit, and asks the kids to jump like rabbits, putting on paper ears or simply putting their palms to their heads. The most active rabbit is awarded a reward - the “Jumping” order or medal.
"Balloon Race"
Inflated balloons are placed on the floor, and the children are given the task of blowing the balloon to the other end of the room the fastest. Invited children get down on their knees and hands and begin to blow on command. The winner is given the award “The Strongest Wind”.
"Choose a gift"
A ribbon is stretched and various small gifts (keychains, pens, felt-tip pens) hang on it. Each child needs to be blindfolded, spun and offered to choose a souvenir as a souvenir. No one should be left without a gift on their birthday.
"To each his own desire"
Small pieces of paper with individual tasks are placed in a box or hat: crow, sing a song, recite a poem, jump a frog, kiss the birthday boy, eat a berry. Each child who comes to a children's birthday party pulls out a piece of paper and reads it themselves, or an adult helps them read it, makes a wish and fulfills it.

Two children need to compete to see who can thread bagels (bagels) onto a rope or a long skewer the fastest. The one who finishes stringing the beads first wins.

Decorating the room
If you want the holiday atmosphere to be felt right from the door, take care of decorating the room. All guests - both children and parents - will be interested in looking at the decor. Here are several options for decorating a room that will please the eye and add solemnity to the moment.
Festive decoration of the room.
Wall newspaper
Start a tradition of publishing such a newspaper every year on your child’s birthday. You can make it from a roll of wallpaper. Glue the funniest and most interesting photographs of your child over the past year onto it, and write original signatures underneath. This decoration will interest both children and adults. You can leave some space at the bottom for guests’ wishes and signatures. Many years later, when you take out such a newspaper from the mezzanine, you will receive a lot of positive emotions and warm memories.
Home exhibition
An exhibition of crafts, drawings, figures made of plasticine and natural materials, or something else (perhaps self-assembled aircraft models, if the child’s hobbies relate to this) is placed on a shelf or in a display case for everyone to see. If the child is older, you can offer him to first make a souvenir for each guest and give it to invited friends at the end of the holiday. Crafts from the birthday boy's guests should also take pride of place on the shelf.
Balls and serpentine
Every child loves balloons and bright streamers. You can simply hang them around the room or scatter them on the floor. You can also purchase a ready-made design from balloons of different colors or make one to order especially for a child’s birthday. It is important to buy high-quality balloons so that they do not start to burst in the middle of the holiday.
Inside each balloon you can put a piece of paper rolled up with a wish for guests (adults and children), and at the end of the evening invite everyone to choose and burst a balloon and read their wish. Such an original farewell is highly appreciated by both children and adults.

You need to find a scarf in 20 seconds. It doesn’t have to be your own, the main thing is that it is put on your neck on time.
Program for adults
When celebrating a child's birthday, you should also take care of the invited parents. To prevent adults from getting bored during children's competitions, you need to prepare a separate program for them. You can invite them to watch a video about the birthday boy. To make this at home, you will need a computer, photographs and videos from the family archive in digital format. As a musical accompaniment, music from cartoons or any other music of your choice is suitable. You can edit the video yourself if you are familiar with video editing, or you can entrust this task to professionals. As practice shows, such films captivate all adults: grandparents, godparents, parents of invited children, aunts and uncles.
No one should be bored at a fun holiday!
While the adults are engrossed in watching the film, you can run the main program for the children. When the movie is over, invite your parents and relatives to the table and treat yourself to a homemade treat. After 20–30 minutes, you can start holding competitions and quizzes.
Tasks for children and adults can be alternated - while some are participating, others are enjoying the festive treat. Children and adults can be seated together, but it is better to set a separate sweet table for the children. Your attention should be enough for everyone. To make it easier, choose an assistant to conduct an entertainment program. You will be generously rewarded for your efforts with children's smiles and the gratitude of adults.
Board games are one way to keep parents busy.
Activities for adults
"Praise"
According to the order of seats at the table, all guests praise the hero of the occasion and name his best qualities. After this, a hat is taken out, into which pieces of paper with inscriptions of the person’s personal qualities have been folded in advance, and the guests, one by one, pull out a “forfeit”.
"Remember all"
While the guests are still not drunk on their birthday, it is suggested that they name the most significant dates and events in the life of the birthday person:
- Day of the week on which you were born.
- Date of birth.
- Year of birth.
- Time of birth.
- Birth weight.
- Height at birth.
- When did the first tooth appear?
- How many teeth now?
- First word.
- Favorite dish.
- Favourite drink.
- Favorite game.
There are many options for questions, but grandparents will win (as practice shows). They are solemnly presented with the “For Memory” award and a photograph of the birthday boy.
"Name"
In turn, all participants in the feast are invited to name diminutive and affectionate names for the birthday boy (Sasha, Shura, Sashka, Sashok, Shurochka, Sashenka and others, for example). The one who named the most wins. The prize can be a small notebook, the first page of which was carefully painted the day before by the hero of the occasion.
"Task feed"
A rope is fixed to the opposite walls, and the child’s socks are attached to it with clothespins. Each sock contains a task for an adult:
- Tell a poem on a certain topic.
- Dance a lambada.
- Sing a lullaby.
- Sing a children's song in a rock arrangement.
- Jump on one leg from one end of the room to the other.
- Crawl under the table.
- Draw an animal.
- Depict an object without words.
You can also include easier tasks: kiss the birthday boy or get candy.
"Puzzles"
When the birthday is coming to an end and the guests are already fairly relaxed, you can offer to assemble puzzles for them at speed. Take several simple puzzles with 6-8 pieces and lay them out on stools according to the number of participants. Whoever collects it faster receives the “Fastest” order.
As a result, it is worth adding that the entertainment program for adults on a children's birthday should be interesting, but not too intrusive. Some people are embarrassed to participate in competitions or are afraid of appearing insecure. Be attentive to all participants in the celebration, and if a person is clearly tired, allow him to calmly enjoy the treat and contemplate the fun.
