Cool games and competitions at the table. "Getting dressed for the time"

I love - I don’t love
The host asks all guests sitting at the table to name two parts of the body: what they like and what they don’t like about the neighbor on the right. For example: “I like my neighbor’s ear on the right and don’t like his shoulder.” After everyone calls it, the host asks everyone to kiss what they like and bite what they don't like. A minute of wild laughter is guaranteed for you.

Boxing match
Props: boxing gloves, candy (preferably caramel)
Before the start of the competition, the presenter calls two real men who are ready to do anything for the sake of the lady of their heart. The ladies of the heart are present right there to exert a beneficial psychological influence on their knights. The gentlemen wear boxing gloves, the rest of the guests form a symbolic boxing ring. The presenter’s task is to escalate the situation as much as possible, suggest which muscles are best to stretch, even ask for short fights with an imaginary opponent, in general, everything is like in a real ring. After physical and moral preparation is completed, the knights go to the center of the ring and greet each other. The presenter, who is also the judge, reminds the rules, such as: do not hit below the belt, do not leave bruises, fight until first blood, etc. After this, the presenter hands the fighters each the same candy, preferably caramel (they are more difficult to unwrap, especially when they are stuck together), and asks his lady love to unwrap this candy as soon as possible, without taking off his boxing gloves. The one who completes the task before his opponent wins.

Zoo
7-8 people participate
The game is generally for children of older preschool age, but at parties and weddings it goes great! 7-8 people participate, each chooses an animal and shows the others the characteristic movement of this animal, only movements! :) This is how “getting to know each other” happens. After this, the host from the side chooses the one who starts the game. He must show “himself” and another “animal”, this “animal” shows himself and someone else, and so on until someone makes a mistake, i.e. will show another “animal” incorrectly or show an eliminated one. The one who makes a mistake is eliminated. The game ends when two remain." Then a toast:

This comic will make your group laugh! To make a comic you will need: paper, pencils. The first participant draws a head (no matter who): for example, a hippopotamus. And bends the part of the sheet on which he drew the head. The same thing for another participant, only the neck, arms, body: for example, a fox. The next participant legs: for example, a person. And it turns out: hippopotamus-fox-man! Or, easier to say... Miracle Yudo! From: Artem Similar competitions:Who is cooler in my pants.Maternity hospital.Chocolate

Quatrains

Before the game starts, you need to select quatrains, the first two lines of which are read. The participants are faced with the task of finishing the quatrain by coming up with the next two lines. At the end, the originals are read and the results are compared. Often, as a result of this competition, a poet, or even several, is discovered. Similar competitions: A woman is... Guessing the handshake. Kind words to the birthday boy. Let's do it again!

Listening to thoughts

Prepare a cassette with short excerpts from famous songs. Eg:

1. “Well, where are you girls, girls, girls, short skirts, skirts, skirts.”
2. “You abandoned me, you abandoned me.”
3. “Take me quickly, and take me over a hundred seas, and kiss me everywhere.”
4. “If there was a sea of ​​beer, I would become a beautiful dolphin.”
5. “If you want, you want, I know for sure: you want.”
6. “Oh, what a man he was! A real colonel!” etc.

The toastmaster or presenter begins to approach those present and, with the words: “Now we’ll find out what you’re thinking about,” moves his hands above his head. At this time, the assistant turns on the tape, which voices the “thoughts”. Be sure to pick up the presenter’s funny comments about what you heard. Record no more than 8-10 “thoughts” on the tape.

Competitions at the table
To play, you will need cocktail straws and tennis balls (if you don’t have it, you can crumple up napkins) according to the number of participants in the race.

Preparation: tracks are prepared on the table according to the number of participants, i.e. Place glasses, bottles, etc. in a row at a distance of 30-50 cm from each other. Players with a straw in their mouth and a ball are ready to start. At the leader’s signal, the participants must, blowing through a tube onto the ball, guide it along the entire distance, bending around oncoming objects.

The first player to reach the finish line wins. The task can be complicated by inviting guests to blow on the ball with an enema or syringe.

Fun competition at the table
This game will help all your guests get to know each other. Guests sitting at the table pass a roll around in a circle toilet paper. Each guest tears off as many scraps as he wants, the more the better. When each guest has a stack of scraps, the host announces the rules of the game: each guest must tell as many facts about himself as he has torn scraps.
Table competition for the company
The guests are sitting at the table. At the command of the host, one of the guests places a button on his index finger and, turning to his neighbor, invites him to move the button onto his index finger. You are not allowed to use other fingers. And so on in a circle. The one who drops is eliminated from the game, and so the last players have to stretch across the entire table. The last two participants win and receive a prize.

Competition at the table with notes

The competition has a lot of different interpretations and every time it hits the bull's eye. The game with notes has been known since school days. The first person writes only one question (what? why? where?), and the second person answers it. Then we fold the sheet according to the accordion principle (so that previous entries are not visible). When the sheet ends, you can read the resulting story.

A large company can gather for any reason. This could be an event like a birthday or housewarming. In any case, for the event to be successful, the organizer, and there is always one, needs to be well prepared.

Organization of competitions and quizzes for birthdays

To make the holiday a success, it is worth paying attention not only to issues regarding the menu, table setting and musical accompaniment.

All this is, of course, important, but to achieve the most pleasant effect, you should take care of competitions and games. And it doesn’t matter that the company consists of adults - they also don’t mind having fun and fooling around.

Difficulties may arise in the fact that not the entire company will consist of well-known people; it is quite likely that the presence of those whom you have seen only a couple of times or do not know at all. In this case, it is important that communication is equally easy for all participants, and no one feels “out of place.”

Here, birthday games and competitions at the table are very useful, as they help defuse the situation. Also in the company there may be people of different genders and ages. This also needs to be taken into account and strive to ensure that the program contains entertainment that is interesting to all categories of people.

For example, older people will appreciate quizzes, while younger people will appreciate funny pranks. Here are some competition options that your friends and family will enjoy and will turn a banal feast into a truly unforgettable holiday.

Fun competitions for a large group of adults

Funny table competition “Who thinks about what”

You need to be well prepared for this competition. Choose songs that have funny lines that could pass for someone else's thoughts.

The main thing is that there is nothing offensive in them, and make a cut from these lines. For example, lines such as: “I want to get married, I want to get married”, “Natural blond, there’s only one like him in the whole country” are suitable. Find a hat, the funnier it is, the better.

During the feast, the chosen host announces that he has a mind-reading hat. After which he puts it on the heads of all the guests in turn. As soon as the hat touches the person's head, the assistant plays a selection of music with the desired line. The main thing here is that the words of the song are suitable specifically for this guest.

Competition with glove and water “Glorious milk yield”

Stock up on medical gloves, one per guest. Make a tiny hole in each of the fingers (at the very end) with a thin needle. Now all that remains is to conveniently secure the gloves on the chair and pour water into them.

The guests' task is to try to milk their glove as quickly as possible. It’s especially fun if the guests are completely unfamiliar with village life.

Laughter and joy are guaranteed for everyone, the main thing is to overcome embarrassment. And if the participants have already tasted a little alcohol, then watching their efforts is a pleasure.

A funny competition with photos “Can you guess?”

You need to find photographs of celebrities on the Internet or in a magazine. The host (better if it is you) selects any guest and asks him to turn away. He further explains the rules: “I will now show the guests a photo of an animal, your task is to ask quality questions and guess who is in the photo.” Guests can only answer “yes” or “no”.

Now the presenter shows a photo of the star, and the player, believing that the photograph is an animal, asks ridiculous questions: “Does the animal have a tail?”, “Does it eat grass?” etc. The audience (and the player after the end of the competition, when he understands what’s going on) will have fun in full.

Competition for those who love movement

Guests are divided into teams of the same number of people. The bigger the team, the better. Each team chooses a color, and the participants tie a ball of the corresponding color to their leg. You need to tie it with a thread so that the ball lies on the floor (it doesn’t matter how far from the leg).

The host gives a signal, after which each team tries to burst the opponent’s balloon. The one whose ball failed leaves the game. The team whose player keeps his ball until the end of the competition wins. To make it more difficult, each team can choose several colors, but then you need to remember your team exactly so that in the heat of battle you don’t burst your team’s balloon.

The game is good for warming up between delicious dishes. It can be carried out both indoors and outdoors.

A fun competition for lovers of delicious drinks

It is required to prepare ten disposable glasses and drinks. A different drink is poured into each glass in front of the guests. They can be poured either regular or seasoned with salt, pepper or other spices (so that the taste deteriorates, but does not cause harm to health).

The glasses are placed in a dense pile. Those who wish are given a table tennis ball, and everyone throws it into a glass. Whichever glass the ball lands in, the player must drink.

These fun competitions at the birthday table will make your holiday even more interesting!

Funny games for birthday guests

Blindfold competition “Make a wish come true”

Each person present puts one item in a bag. A presenter is selected and blindfolded.

His task is to pull one thing out of the bag and say what its owner should do. Here everything depends only on the imagination of the presenter. He may offer to sing, crow and much more.

The main thing is that the task must be humiliating for the guest, and also contain difficulties in completion.

Competition for art lovers “Modern Storytellers”

Each participant in the event has the skills of a certain profession. But the more a person works in a certain field, the more in his vocabulary appropriate terminology appears. It can easily be used not only for business, but also for fun. Each player should be given paper and pen.

The task is that the player chooses any fairy tale for himself and tries to write its analogue, but only in professional language, for example, turn the fairy tale into a police report or a medical report. After the specified time has expired, all fairy tales are read out and a winner is chosen by general vote. The one whose fairy tale is the funniest becomes the winner.

An interesting competition for guests “Guess what’s in the picture”

It is necessary to find some interesting image and prepare an opaque sheet of much larger size. A hole is made in the sheet with a diameter of no more than three centimeters. The image and the sheet covering it are installed in a place convenient for all participants. The presenter must move the sheet with the hole over the mysterious image so that the participants see small pieces of what is drawn.

The winner is the one who guesses faster than others what kind of drawing is hidden behind the sheet.

Entertaining game “Writing a funny story”

Participants sit in a circle. Everyone is provided with a pen and paper. The presenter asks his first question: “Who?” Participants write on a piece of paper the character they have chosen for their story, then bend the piece of paper so that the word is hidden and pass it to the person on the right.

The presenter asks the next question. For example: “Where is it going?” Again, everyone answers (you need to answer in a detailed sentence, not a few words), folds the sheet and passes it on. And so on until the presenter runs out of questions.

There are no restrictions on the questions, but they must be asked in such an order that the answers add up to a coherent story.

As a result, when the story is written, the entire work is read out loud.

Incendiary competitions for adult parties

A fun game with catchy dancing and a scarf

For this game you just need nothing: a small scarf and good music. The music should be cheerful so that guests can perform unimaginable pirouettes with pleasure.

You need to stand in a large circle and choose the first player. For fun, you can do this using lots.

The one who gets to dance sits in the center of the circle, a scarf is tied around his neck, and everyone begins to dance. The central dancer, after a certain number of movements, must give his handkerchief to any other person. To do this, without stopping the dance, he takes it off and ties it in a knot on the neck of the chosen guest, after which he kisses him.

The dancing continues until the leader turns off the music. When everything is quiet, the one who is in the circle at that moment should shout something funny, for example, crow.

Funny competition to dress up a friend and be quick

Participants are selected and randomly divided into pairs. Depending on the number of pairs, you need to collect bags with a variety of clothes in advance. The quantity and difficulty of putting on all sets should be as similar as possible. Everyone playing is blindfolded. Within the couple there is a choice about who will dress and who will be put on.

At a signal, the first participant begins to take clothes out of the bag and tries to put them on the second participant. Only a minute is given. Victory goes to those who wear more clothes and do it more correctly. There is no need to limit the time, then those who put on all the things from the bag faster win. It's especially funny when a pair of two men has to wear exclusively women's clothes.

Hit the target in the “Brave Hunters” competition

Two or three teams of three people are formed. They will be hunters. One of the participants will play the role of a boar. Each hunter receives tightly rolled pieces of paper - they will be a kind of cartridges. Hunters strive to hit a wild boar, but not just a wild boar, but a special target.

The target is drawn in advance on a cardboard circle.

At the beginning of the game, this target is attached to the boar's clothing, approximately on the lower back. At a signal, the boar tries to run quickly and dodge, and the hunters aim with all their might at the target. The space for hunting is limited in advance, and the time is clearly defined. You need to engage in such entertainment while you are still sober. Also, hunters should not hold a boar by force.

A funny game for greedy people with balloons

Buy and inflate a sufficient number of multi-colored balloons in advance. Before the game, scatter them on the floor. Participants are selected and, as soon as the go-ahead is given and cheerful musical accompaniment is turned on, everyone begins to try to catch and hold maximum amount balls.

Cool games and competitions for a group of drunk guests

Competition with a bakery product “Guess the poem”

The selected participant puts such a large portion into his mouth bakery product so that it was very, very difficult to talk.

After this, he is given a sheet of paper with a verse (the main thing is that no one knows this verse).

The second player listens carefully and writes down what he understands, after which he reads it. The resulting text is compared with what was actually in the task. You can use not only poetry, but also prose.

Funny competition with chairs and rope “Obstacle”

Two couples are selected (a guy and a girl are required). Two chairs are placed in an empty space, with a tight rope stretched between them. Each guy must take the girl in his arms and step over the rope. Under no circumstances should you touch the rope.

The task is performed one by one. After reaching the first height, the rope rises higher and everything is repeated until someone can handle the height.

Paired accuracy competition “Cigarettes and potatoes”

Two participants are selected. A rope is tied to everyone's belt, with a large potato hanging from the tail. You also need to stock up on two packs of cigarettes, already empty.

The players' task is to push their pack faster than their opponent, using tied potatoes, until it reaches the intended finish.

Free your opponent from clothespins and win

Couples are called to a large free space in the room. 14-20 clothespins are attached to the participants (of course, on their clothes). After which the players are blindfolded and, while upbeat music is playing, they must find and remove the maximum number of clothespins from their opponents.

Competition with fins and binoculars “Diving races”

Participants are selected who put on fins and, looking through binoculars, but only with reverse side, must reach the finish line.

Memory and attentiveness game “Come up with associations”

Those who wish sit down or stand in a row so that the beginning and end can be tracked. The first player comes up with several completely unrelated words. The one who follows him must connect them and tell a story with them, which could well be in reality. Then he says a new word. The third one adds text with this word to the voiced situation.

Example: the first two words are “telephone” and “birch”. The situation with them is as follows: “The wife was tired of her husband talking on the phone all the time, and he began to live with him on the birch tree.” The new word could be “sofa,” and then you can add to the situation: “Sleeping in the nest was not as good as sleeping on the sofa.” And this continues as long as there is imagination.

To make it more difficult, the presenter can at any time ask one of the players to repeat everything said earlier. The one who fails is eliminated.

Competition for a group of people “How to find application”

Five to ten people are selected. Any object is placed in front of them. Their task is to voice the use of this item in turn. Moreover, the options should be possibly applicable. The one who doesn’t invent anything is out. The one who survives until the end wins.

It would be a good idea to supplement competitions with prizes. You don't need anything expensive. Small trinkets, such as keychains or figurines, are perfect. If the event is on the occasion of the New Year, then prizes can be chosen based on the theme of the symbol of the year or Christmas tree decorations. Also, on any holiday you can use chocolate bars, sweets, and non-fragile fruits as prizes.

Prizes will add enthusiasm to the guests and the desire to win, thus the comic competition will become even more interesting and lively.

Funny birthday competitions at the table will turn your name day into an unforgettable celebration. Moreover, any competition can be complicated or more creative elements can be introduced into it. And, most importantly, they can be held not only on holidays. Give a good mood to yourself and your loved ones at any time. After all, all you need is a little imagination.

Regardless of the occasion for which a cheerful adult company has gathered - an anniversary or just a birthday, it does not hurt the birthday person to prepare in advance. Of course, a good menu, suitable drinks, appropriate music are an important part of spending time together. But fun competitions for an adult company at a table or in nature will achieve a special effect.

The company may include both long-time friends and unfamiliar people. It is possible that informal communication is organized for people who are seeing each other for the first time. It could be people of different ages- men and women, boys and girls. No matter how the communication is supposed to be, having at least a conditional plan of action, including competitions for young people, quizzes for adults, funny jokes and theatrical performances, means ensuring the success of any event!
So, competitions for young people: students, schoolchildren, adults, young at heart!

Fun competition at the “Thoughts” table

A musical selection is prepared in advance, where wishes or funny sayings are expressed in songs. For example, “I am a chocolate bunny, I am an affectionate bastard...”, “And I am unmarried, someone really needs it..”, “It’s great that we are all gathered here today..”, etc. The host simply approaches each guest and puts a magic hat on his head that can read thoughts.

Carbon Contest “Milk the Cow”

On a stick, chair... (whatever is more convenient for you) attach 1 medical ordinary glove for each participant in the competition, make tiny holes at the end of each finger and pour water into the glove. The participants' task is to milk the glove.
The delight is indescribable for both participants and spectators. (Especially if no one has seen how to milk a cow and the company drank a little). The mood will be through the roof!!!

Competition “Guess the Animal”

It is necessary to prepare several photographs of famous stars in advance. Only one person participates in the competition - the presenter. The presenter selects a player from the audience, the player turns away, the presenter says - I show the audience a photo of the animal, and you ask leading questions, and we will all say yes or no. Everyone except the player sees the photo (for example, Dima Bilan in the photo), everyone starts laughing, and the player thinks that this is a funny animal and starts asking crazy questions:
– does he have a lot of fat or not?
-does he have horns?

Mobile competition for the company

Two large but equal teams are participating. Each participant ties an inflated balloon your team colors. The thread can be any length, although the longer the better. The balls must be on the floor. On command, everyone begins to destroy their opponents’ balls by stepping on them at the same time, preventing them from doing the same with their own. The owner of the burst ball steps aside and stops the battle. The winner is the team whose ball remains the last on the battlefield. Fun and not traumatic. Verified. By the way, each team can develop some kind of strategy and tactics for combat. And the balls may not be the same color in a team, but to successfully fight you need to know your partners well.

Competition for those who are thirsty (can be held outdoors) -)

We need to take about 10 plastic glasses, fill them in front of the competition participants with various drinks (both tasty and intentionally “spoiled” with the addition of salt, pepper or something like that, but most importantly compatible with life). Glasses are placed in a pile. Participants take turns throwing a ping pong ball into glasses and whichever glass the ball lands in, the contents of that glass are drunk.

Competition “Make a Wish”

Participants collect one item of each, which is put into a bag. After which, one of the participants is blindfolded. The presenter pulls out things one by one, and the blindfolded player comes up with a task for the owner of the pulled out thing. Tasks can be very different: dance, sing a song, crawl under the table and moo, and so on.

Competition “Fairy tales with a modern twist”

Among the people invited to the birthday party, of course, there are representatives of various professions. Each of them is a professional in his field, and, of course, has a full set of terms and specific vocabulary inherent in people of his profession. Why not make sure that instead of boring and uninteresting professional conversations, guests make each other laugh? This is done simply.
Participants are given sheets of paper and given tasks: to present the contents of well-known fairy tales in professional language.
Imagine the fairy tale “Flint”, written in the style of a police report or a psychiatric medical history. And “The Scarlet Flower” as a description of a tourist route?
The author of the funniest fairy tale wins.

Competition “Guess the picture”

The presenter shows the players a picture, which is covered with a large sheet with a hole two to three centimeters in diameter in the middle. The presenter moves the sheet across the picture. Participants must guess what is shown in the picture. The one who guesses the fastest wins.

Writing competition (fun)

The players sit in circles and everyone is given blank sheets of paper and pens. The presenter asks the question: “Who?” Players write the names of their heroes at the top of the sheet. After this, fold the sheet so that what is written is not visible. After this, they pass the piece of paper to the neighbor on the right. The presenter asks: “Where did you go?” Everyone writes, folds the paper and passes it to the neighbor on the right. Presenter: “Why did he go there?”…. And so on. After this, the fun reading begins together.

An incendiary game “Let's dance!?”

Preparation is simple: a neckerchief and a presenter responsible for musical accompaniment are selected. The main task of the presenter is to provide the competition with fast, fiery melodies that can excite the participants so that they want to perform the most fiery steps and pirouettes.

Everyone taking part in the entertainment stands in a large circle. The first dancer is chosen. This may be the hero of the occasion; if there is none, you can decide by drawing lots or counting. The player stands in an improvised circle, a scarf is tied to him, the music is turned on, and everyone dances. After making a few or many movements, the dancer must transfer his attribute to another person standing in a circle. The scarf must be tied in a knot around the neck, and the “heir” must also be kissed. The new dancer takes the place of the previous one and performs his steps. The dance lasts as long as the musical accompaniment lasts. When the leader turns it off, the remaining dancer in the circle is taken by surprise and is forced to shout something like “ku-ka-re-ku.” The more unexpectedly the music stops, the more fun those present will have.

Competition “Dress each other”

This is a team game. Participants are divided into pairs.
Each couple chooses a pre-prepared package containing a set of clothes (the number and complexity of items must be the same). All participants in the game are blindfolded. On command, one of the pair must put clothes on the other from the package he received by touch in one minute. The winner is the couple that “dresses” faster and more correctly than others. It's fun when there are two men in a couple and they get a bag of purely women's clothing!

Competition “Boar Hunting”

To play you will need several teams of “hunters”, consisting of 3 people and one “boar”. The “hunters” are given cartridges (this can be any piece of paper) after which they try to hit the “boar”. The target can be a circle of cardboard on which a target is drawn. This circle with a target is attached to the “boar” on the belt in the lumbar region. The task of the “boar” is to run away and evade, and the task of the “hunters” is to hit this very target.
A certain time is recorded during which the game is played. It is advisable to limit the space for the game so that the game does not turn into a real hunt. The game must be played in a sober state. It is prohibited to hold a “boar” by teams of “hunters”.

Greedy

There are many balls scattered on the floor.
Those interested are invited. And on command, to the accompaniment of fast music, each participant must take and hold as many balls as possible.

Competition “Try and Guess”

The participant stuffs a huge piece of bun into his mouth in such a way that it is impossible to speak. After that, he receives a text that needs to be read. The participant tries to read it with expression (preferably it is an unfamiliar verse). The other participant needs to write down everything that he understood, and then read aloud what happened. As a result, its text is compared with the original. Instead of a bun, you can use another product that makes it difficult to pronounce words.

Competition “Overcome the Obstacle”

Two couples are invited to the stage. Chairs are placed and a rope is pulled between them. The guys' task is to pick up the girl and step over the rope. After the first pair does this, the second pair does it too. Next you need to pick up the rope and repeat the task again. The rope will rise until one of the pairs completes the task. As has already become clear, the pair that falls before the other pair loses.

Competition “Potato”

To participate in the competition you need 2 players and two empty packs of cigarettes. Ropes are tied to the players' belts, with a potato tied at the end. The essence of the competition is to quickly push an empty pack to the finish line with these same potatoes, which are dangling at the end of the rope. Whoever reaches the finish line first wins.

Competition “Clothespins”

Competition “Diver”

Those wishing to take part in this competition are invited to wear fins and look from the back through binoculars to overcome a given distance.

Competition “Associations”

The participants of the game stand in a row or (everyone sits in a line, the main thing is to make it clear where the beginning is and where the end is). The first one utters two completely unrelated words. For example: wood and computer. The next player must connect the unconnected and describe the situation that could happen with these two objects. For example, “The wife got tired of her husband constantly sitting at the computer, and he settled in a tree with him.” Then the same player says the following word, for example, “Bed.” The third participant must add this word to this situation, for example, “Sleeping on a branch has become not as comfortable as sleeping on a bed.” And so on until your imagination suffices. You can complicate the game and add the following. The presenter interrupts any of the participants and asks them to repeat all the words spoken; the one who fails to do this is eliminated from the game.

Competition “How to use?”

The competition requires 5 – 15 people. Any object is placed on the table in front of the players. Participants must take turns saying how the item is used. The use of the item must be theoretically correct. Anyone who cannot come up with a use for the item is eliminated from the game. The one who remains last in the game is the winner.

You can complicate competitions and make them more creative and creative. Be happy not only on holidays. Give laughter and smiles to your friends, family and loved ones.

For example: OVD - we adore Valera for a long time.
(The phonogram of the song “Golden Heart” performed by S. Rotaru sounds, guests choose cards attached to a soft toy in the shape of a heart, decipher the abbreviation and name what they got.)

It's very simple and fun game to provoke guests. The host names various words, and the guests, in chorus, quickly and without hesitation, name the diminutive form of this word. For example:
Mommy mommy
slipper
Handbag
Bulb lamp
goat goat
rose rose
Vodka water
Of course, “vodka” is correct, but for some reason in most cases already tipsy guests answer “vodka.” At this word, the presenter stops the game and announces to all participants the diagnosis: “increased bottleism.”

Ear, nose and two hands

This competition can be held while sitting at a table. Everyone is asked to grab the tip of their nose with their left hand, and the left earlobe with their right hand. When the leader claps, you need to change the position of your hands, that is, grab your right earlobe with your left hand, and grab your nose with your right hand. At first, the intervals between claps are long, and then the leader increases the pace of the game, and the intervals between claps become smaller and smaller. The winner is the one who lasts the longest and does not get entangled in his hands, noses and ears.

All those present are divided into two teams. Each team needs to come up with as many dishes as possible starting with a letter, for example "N". The team with the most names of dishes starting with the letter N wins.

Questions and answers

Everyone is welcome to participate. Cards of two colors with questions and answers are prepared in advance. The point of the game is that one player takes a card with a question, the second with an answer, and they read out what they got. For convenience, you can do this: the first player takes a card with a question and reads it out. The neighbor next to you takes the card with the answer and reads it out, then he takes the card with the question and reads it to his neighbor, etc. You can play until you get bored.

The owner of the “goldfish” has the right to voice three of his wishes and choose them among the cards proposed by the presenter. But before that, he names any “performer” among the guests.)

Examples of wishes:

1. I want a toast to be made now in honor of the hero of the day, in which the three words “anniversary” would appear.

Host: Dear guests!

When was Vyacheslav born?
The wine was in the cellars,
Since then it has gained strength,
The baby was not left behind.
And to find out if it arrived,
The hero of the day and I will try wine.
This bottle of wine
We pass it back and forth.
On whom the music stops,
He pours a glass,
Says his toast to the guests,
Glory to the hero of the day.
(Game. Toasts.)

tell me about yourself

This comic test is designed for pairs. Sheets of paper and markers are distributed to all willing participants. Each participant writes ten names of animals (insects, birds, reptiles) on a sheet of paper in a column numbered. Then the presenter distributes cards with questions prepared in advance and invites each participant to read aloud what he has done.

My husband (beloved)...
Affectionate as...
Strong like...
Sociable as...
Authoritative as...
Independent like...
Smiling like...
Neat as...
Amorous as...
Beautiful as...

My wife (beloved)...
In transport, like...
With relatives, like...
With work colleagues like...
In the store, like...
At home, like...
In a cafe or restaurant, like...
With the boss, how...
In friendly company, like...
In the doctor's office, like...

"Yes" and "no" in Bulgarian

The presenter says: “You know that all gestures have international meaning - for example, most greeting gestures. But there are also significant differences in the semantic content of the same gestures in different countries Oh. So, for example, if a Russian shakes his head as a sign of denial, then for a Bulgarian this gesture has the opposite meaning - he expresses agreement. Conversely, the Bulgarian tilts his head down as a sign of denial. And now I will ask you questions in Russian, and you answer them in Bulgarian, making a gesture with your head, while speaking out loud in Russian."
The questions can be absolutely anything, since the holiday concerns love and romantic relationships, then questions can be prepared in advance on relevant topics.

The host asks all guests sitting at the table to name two parts of the body: what they like and what they don’t like about the neighbor on the right. For example: “I like my neighbor’s ear on the right and don’t like his shoulder.” After everyone calls it, the host asks everyone to kiss what they like and bite what they don't like. A minute of wild laughter is guaranteed for you.

2-3 people play. The presenter reads the text: I’ll tell you a story in one and a half dozen phrases. As soon as I say the number 3, take the prize immediately:

“Once we caught a pike, gutted it, and inside we saw small fish, not just one, but seven.”

“When you want to memorize poems, don’t cram them until late at night. Take them and repeat them once at night - twice, or better yet, 10.”

“A seasoned guy dreams of becoming an Olympic champion. Look, don’t be tricky at the start, but wait for the command: one, two, march!

"Once I had to wait 3 hours for a train at the station..."

If they don’t have time to take the prize, the presenter takes it: “Well, friends, you didn’t take the prize when you had the opportunity to take it.”

In general, the competition is very simple. Participants sit around the table. Take a glass. The first participant fills it with as much as he likes (usually, of course, vodka to the brim) and carefully (so as not to spill) passes it to his neighbor, who passes it to his neighbor and adds liquid to the glass... and so on, and so on... The loser is the one who will no longer be able to pour anything into this glass. So he calms his nerves with the contents of the glass. It is very interesting to play when there are many different drinks on the table. And also if the glass is paper or plastic. Good luck!

PORTRAIT.

Number of participants - 5-20.
Venue: feast, room.
You will need: Paper and pencil for each participant, eraser.
Rules. Each player draws a portrait of someone present. After this, all the portraits are passed around in a circle and the players write on the back of each portrait the name of the person who, in their opinion, is drawn on it. After the picture goes around the circle and returns to the author, the number of correct answers is counted. The "artist" who paints the most recognizable portrait is declared the winner. After this, the portraits are given to those participants who are depicted in them.
Helpful advice. It's best to have players draw caricatures of each other. So that each participant receives his own portrait at the end of the game, you can decide who will draw whom by drawing lots (to do this, players write their names on pieces of paper and put them in a hat, and then the participants take turns taking the names of their models out of the hat).

IN A PLATE.

The game is played while eating. The driver names any letter. The goal of the other participants is to name the object that is currently on their plate with this letter before others. Whoever names the object first becomes the new driver. The driver who says the letter for which none of the players could come up with a word receives a prize.
It is necessary to prohibit the driver from always calling the winning letters
(е, и, ъ, ь, ы).

CANDY.

Participants sit at a table. Choose a driver from among them. Players pass candy to each other under the table. The driver's task is to catch someone from the game passing the candy. The one who is caught becomes the new driver.

BEST TOAST

The presenter informs the participants that, without a doubt, a real man should be able to drink properly. However, the goal of the competition is not to drink more than others, but to do it most gracefully.
After this, each participant receives a glass of strong drink. The competitors take turns making toasts and drinking the contents of the glass. The one who completes the task best receives a bonus point.

BEST COMPLIMENT

Since a real man must be gallant and be able to find an approach to a woman’s heart, in this competition participants compete in complimenting the fair sex.
The one whose compliment the women like more than others gets a bonus point.

Competition "Guess who drinks vodka"
This is a drawing competition and you can only do it once, but it's worth it. The conditions are simple: any number of participants are called. Then the host of the competition brings out the appropriate number of glasses (glasses, etc., but preferably transparent!), in which about 150 grams of liquid with straws are poured. The presenter announces: “Now I will give each participant a glass. All but one glass contain pure water. And in one glass there is pure VODKA!" The task of each participant is to drink the contents of his glass through a straw, trying not to let anyone guess what he is drinking. The task of the observers (everyone else) is to guess who exactly has the vodka poured. Well, then, accordingly, the participants sip the liquid, observers try to guess: who is drinking vodka, expressing their guesses, making bets, etc. When all the contestants have drunk everything, the host announces that... this is actually a joke and there is vodka in all the glasses!!!

Associations

Props: not needed

Everyone sits in a circle and someone speaks any word into the ear of his neighbor, he must, as quickly as possible, say into the ear of the next person his first association with this word, the second - to the third, and so on. until the word returns to the first. This competition is considered successful if from the first word, for example glass, the last word turns out to be “gangbang” :)

Props: The organizers of the game tie absolutely any (and as many) items as they want on strings and hide them in a bag.

They call a volunteer and blindfold him. When the eyes are blindfolded, the leader takes one of the prepared items dangling on a rope from the bag and brings it to the volunteer’s nose. You need to determine without the help of your hands, only through the sense of smell: what kind of thing it is. Guess what, you will get this very thing as a gift...

The very first one is given something simpler, like an apple. The rest, inspired by the example, will then stand in line. It can be very funny when an unfortunate sniffer pokes his nose, for example, into a suspended can of beer, which is dangling back and forth...

Finally, it comes to the point where volunteers are given scented condoms to smell. The volunteer sucks in air with all his might, and the people just crawl under the furniture out of laughter. You can also let them smell the bills. And if he guesses right, then let him tell you what denomination the money was. Practice shows that there is always someone who is able to guess the dignity by smell...

FEED ME
The guests are divided into pairs. Each pair consists of a man and a woman. The task of each pair is to work together, without using their hands, to unwrap and eat the candy that the host will give. The first couple to do this wins.

QUESTION FOR YOUR NEIGHBOR
Everyone sits in a circle, the leader is in the center. He approaches any player and asks a question, for example: “What is your name?”, “Where do you live?” etc. But it is not the one who is asked who must answer, but his neighbor on the left. If the one whom the presenter asked answers, he must give the forfeit. After the game, forfeits are played out.

WIND THE CORD
A knot is tied in the middle of the cord, and a simple pencil is attached to the ends. You need to wind your part of the cord around the pencil. Whoever reaches the knot faster is the winner. Instead of a cord, you can take a thick thread.

ELEPHANT
The hostess offers each team a sheet of paper, on which they collectively draw an elephant, with their eyes closed: one draws the body, the other closes his eyes and draws the head, the third legs, etc. Whoever draws something similar faster and faster gets another point.

CHIEF ACCOUNTANT
On a large sheet of whatman paper, various banknotes are depicted scatteredly. They need to be quickly counted, and counting should be done like this: one dollar, one ruble, one mark, two marks, two rubles, three marks, two dollars, etc. The one who counts correctly, without getting lost, and reaching the farthest bill, is the winner.

THREAD THE NEEDLE

Required: NEEDLES + THREAD

Form several pairs (boy and girl). Let the guys stand on one side and the girls on the other.

Give each guy a piece of thread, each girl a needle of the same size.

At the signal, the guys run to the place where their girls are standing, holding needles.

Without the girl's help, each guy must thread the eye of the needle.

As soon as he succeeds, he takes a needle and thread and runs back to the place from where he came. (you don’t have to run while sitting at the table)

BROKEN HEARTS

Required: HEARTS - PUZLE

Give everyone present a paper heart that has been cut into 8 or 10 pieces.

Cut it into pieces so that they are not easy to put together.

The first one to put his “broken heart” together wins.

TELL ME ABOUT YOURSELF

Required: LIST OF QUESTIONS WITH BLANKS

This comic test is designed for married couples. The first to write on a piece of paper - in a column, under numbers - ten names of animals (insects, birds, reptiles), are married men who are present - of course, in secret from their wives. Then the wives do the same.

The person conducting the test asks the married couple to look at the side of the sheet where the representatives of the fauna chosen by the husband appear in a column.
And so, husband:
Affectionate as...
Strong like...
Sociable as...
Authoritative as...
Independent like...
Smiling like...
Neat as...
Amorous as...
Beautiful as...
Then the representatives of the fauna chosen by the wife are named.
So, "Your Wife":
In transport like...
With relatives like...
With work colleagues like...
In the store it's like...
At home it's like...
In a cafe or restaurant like...
With the boss how...
In a friendly company like...
In the doctor's office it's like...

THE MOST DEXTERABLE

Each participant in the competition is given an unfolded sheet of newspaper. The task of each participant is to, while holding right hand behind your back, only with the help of your left hand, taking the newspaper by the corner, gather it into a fist. The fastest and most agile wins.

DRAWERS

The leader calls two or three pairs of players. The players of each pair sit at the table next to each other. One is blindfolded, a sheet of paper is placed in front of him and a pen or pencil is given in his hand. Everyone else present gives each pair a task, for example: draw a New Year's picture. The player in each pair, who is not blindfolded, carefully watches what his neighbor is drawing and tells him where to point the pen and in which direction. He listens and draws what he is told. It turns out very funny. The couple that completes the drawing faster and better wins.

For your first competition you will need a lot of colored hair ties. We select several pairs. The gentlemen sit on chairs, the ladies stand behind them. The task of the latter is to tie as many ponytails as possible on the heads of their partners in one minute. The shorter the hair of the male half of humanity, the more fun the competition will be.

The next two games may perhaps become my favorites. They usually cause the most laughter and positive emotions among guests. So, "Fat-cheeked lip slap." To play, you will need two bags of caramels without wrappers. Two male “victims” are selected, well acquainted and not inclined to be offended over trifles. They sit on chairs facing each other and begin to take turns putting caramels into their mouths, while saying: “Fat-cheeked lip slap!” The more candies in the mouth, the more similar the players become to the very person they call each other, and the more fun all the fans have. The winner is the one who can stuff the most candy into his mouth and at the same time pronounce the required phrase more or less clearly.

The game “While the Candle Burns” is also played by two people. Only now their props are not caramels, but apples, matches and candles. Players sit at the table opposite each other. Near each there is a candle in a candlestick, an apple and a box of matches. Objective: eat an apple faster than your opponent. But this can only be done when your own candle is burning, which your opponent is constantly trying to blow out. Therefore, you need not only to chew, but also to protect the flame of the candle, light it if necessary (and such a need arises constantly) and do not forget to extinguish the opponent’s flame. Fans are allowed to cheer on the players and, of course, laugh. The game can be modified - the role of candlesticks can be played by the brave wives of the players, holding candles in their hands. If you decide to use this option, place a piece of paper on the bottom of the candle. Melted wax dripping onto your hands is not a pleasant sensation.

The next competition is called "Siamese Twins". And that's why. Two or three pairs of players are selected. In each pair, the right hand of one player is tied to the left hand of the other player. The resulting “Siamese twins” now have only three “working” hands between them. On the command “start”, each pair must fold an airplane from a sheet of paper, ahead of the other “twins” in this process. It is not forbidden to interfere with rival couples. The “twins” win, whose airplane is the first to fly over the festive table.

If among your friends there are a couple of connoisseurs and passionate beer lovers, organize a tasting competition between them. To do this, you need to have three to five types of beer available. Try to select beer from popular brands with contrasting tastes to make the task easier for tasters. So, pour a little drink into glasses, not forgetting to mark them in some way for yourself. You can stick pieces of colored paper on the glasses or put marks with colored markers. Each tasting participant receives a tray with a set of glasses, tastes the beer and determines its brand and variety. If such a task turns out to be too difficult for the players, name the types of beer in the glasses and invite the tasters to determine which is which. The winner who most accurately identifies the contents of their glasses receives a prize. Which? Of course, a bottle of beer!

Now let's remember the old forgotten games. For example, a competition “which couple will eat the candy faster.” But you need to unwrap the candy without using your hands. The couple grabs the candy wrapper on both sides with their teeth and carefully unrolls it. The main thing is not to laugh, otherwise the candy may simply fall. By the way, laughing is also prohibited in the “nose” competition. Couples connect noses and try to hold out as long as possible without laughing or being separated. And the presenter gives them different tasks: sit down, stand up, bend over, grunt, jump. And if you go back to the first game with candies, you can come up with many more variations: eat a chocolate bar, banana, apple or any other fruit together and without using your hands.

All players line up and receive two pieces of paper. The inscriptions indicate those body parts that each player must use to connect with the previous and subsequent players in the chain. Let's say the first player has a stomach, the second has an ear. We connect the two parts of the body together and continue the chain. The question may arise: what is the point of this game? Nothing, in general. But fun and laughter at the moment of building the chain are guaranteed. And don’t forget to take a photo of the resulting composition as a souvenir.

Visiting a fairy tale

An impromptu production of a children's fairy tale can become traditional fun at any of your holidays. At the height of the evening, even the most shy ones, those who previously had to be pulled out from the table and “implanted” into the role almost by force, will wonder when the “fairy tale” will happen. The meaning of this action is extremely simple. You need to choose in advance a suitable, not too long fairy tale with a dynamic plot. All characters, including inanimate objects, are written out on separate pieces of paper and then distributed to the “actors”. The presenter reads a fairy tale, and the actors play their roles: someone depicts a fungus under which a mouse, a frog and a butterfly are hiding, and someone depicts rain pouring rain from a pipette onto all participants. It is important that the presenter be a person with a good sense of humor, read the text with additional comments and at the same time direct the “actors”. The simplest fairy tales, like “Kolobok,” as well as specially invented stories and even classics, are suitable for production. Moreover, children, both big and small, will probably refuse to play the role of passive spectators and will also take part in the performance. It would be great if all the action was captured on camera. Then you are guaranteed minutes of laughter not only during the game, but also during subsequent viewings.

Funny "guessers"

The next series of games is no less interesting than a dramatization of a fairy tale. True, you will have to invent something new every time. So, remember in advance and write on pieces of paper some well-known pairs of characters. These can be literary, cartoon and film characters, TV show hosts, celebrity couples, monuments and anything else you want. For example: Romeo and Juliet, worker and collective farmer, Othello and Desdemona, Winnie the Pooh and Piglet, Father Frost and Snow Maiden, Ivan Tsarevich and the frog, etc. At the height of the evening, hand out a note to each married (or non-married) couple. After thinking and preparing, the couple portrays their characters, and the rest of the guests guess who they are. Makeup and dressing up are encouraged.

You can also invite couples to demonstrate the film in a similar way. He must certainly be well known to the majority of those present. Use old Soviet films, like "White Sun of the Desert", "The Diamond Arm" or "Dogs in the Manger" and foreign ones (for example, "Pulp Fiction", " Toughie", etc.). Some films are not at all easy to show and to guess. By the way, about films. Offer your guests such a riddle. You read a certain list of actors, and everyone must guess what film they are talking about.

The described entertainment is a variation of the well-known game of “cow” (or “crocodile”). And if you still don’t have it in your arsenal of home games, the situation needs to be corrected immediately! The rules of the game are simple. The whole company is divided into two teams (usually the right and left half of the table). One of the teams, after consulting, thinks of a word or phrase (no more than two words) and tells it in the ear of one of the players of the opposing team. The player’s task, without using words or auxiliary objects, is to show his team the intended word with just gestures. And the team, in turn, must guess this word. The player can use several permitted gestures: show on his fingers the number of words in a phrase; crossing your arms is absolutely wrong; rub your palms together - very close, it seems. When the word is guessed, the teams switch places. Words and phrases can be: femme fatale, mess, jelly, New Year's card. And even: state of aggregation, kerosene, indulgence, periodic table. You can agree in advance to wish for a movie or a famous song or a proverb.

If you wish, you can play “Associations”. It's done like this. A leader is selected and sent temporarily to another room or corridor. The remaining company makes a wish for any of those present (including the presenter). The presenter comes back and starts asking questions to all the players in turn. The meaning of the questions is: with whom (what) do the players associate the hidden person. For example, the presenter says: “Animal.” The player answers: "Cat." The host says: “Food.” The player answers: "Chocolate." Questions can be: color, city, movie, book, hobby, vacation, flower, car, work, etc. After analyzing the answers received, the presenter guesses the person after three attempts. If he succeeds, the guessed one becomes the leader. If not, the presenter goes out the door again.

Say “yes” and “no”!

Probably, many have already guessed that we will talk about Danetkas or, as this game is otherwise called, situations. This funny game is not only fun entertainment. She activates creative thinking, which is very useful not only for children, but also for adult uncles and aunts. You can play in the situation with children during a long journey, or in an adult company at the holiday table. So, the presenter tells some situation. For example, this: “One man lived on the 10th floor. Every time he returned home, he took the elevator to the 8th floor, and then walked. Why?” Now players are trying to figure out the missing information and guess the situation. To do this, they ask questions to the presenter, to which he can only answer: “Yes”, “No”, “Doesn’t matter” or “Incorrect question” (if the question cannot be answered either yes or no). The game continues until one of the players clears up the situation. And the answer is extremely simple. This man is very short (options: dwarf, child) and does not reach the tenth floor button.

You can come up with situations yourself (by the way, in Everyday life there are a great variety of all kinds of incidents), and can be found on the Internet. Having a few new riddles in stock, you can always entertain any bored company. To begin with, here are a few situations for you.

The traveler was captured by the Amazons. They decided to kill him, but promised to fulfill his last wish. How did the traveler escape? Answer: The traveler asked to be killed by the most beautiful Amazon. Deciding which of them was more beautiful, the Amazons fought and killed each other.

From vanity she lost food. Answer: Crow from Krylov's fable "The Crow and the Fox".

Two friends went to the mountains. One of them died there. It all looked like an accident, but someone was found who proved it was murder. Answer: This person is a ticket seller from whom the killer bought only one return ticket in advance.

And this is a classic Danetka, described by M. Weller in the book “The Adventures of Major Zvyagin”. A cowboy runs into the bar and signs for a drink. The bartender pulls out his Colt and knocks the cowboy's hat off with a shot. The cowboy thanks him and leaves. Answer: The cowboy was tormented by hiccups, and the bartender knew that fright was the best remedy for it.

And finally. A man sits at home. The phone rings. He picks up the phone, says, “Yes,” and hangs up. Then the phone rings again. He says, “No,” and hangs up. This is repeated several times. The phone rings again. He listens to what they tell him and exclaims: “Finally!” Answer: Playing Danetki on the phone.

I demand that the banquet continue!

Sitting at the festive table, you can draw a little “concepts”. Everyone present is given a sheet of paper, a pencil and a card with a concept (adultery, senility, hellish tension, etc.) In five minutes, each player tries to draw his concept without using a signature. Then the drawings are collected, and the whole team tries to guess what is drawn there.

It makes sense to diversify the usual dances a little. To do this, conduct a “dance marathon”. Pre-record song fragments onto a cassette in different styles(something slow, Latin American, hip-hop, etc.) Several couples participate in the marathon. Their task is to react in time to changes in music and change the dance accordingly. The rest of the guests are the audience and the jury. They evaluate each pair and choose a winner. If you haven't recorded the music in advance, there is a way out. You just need to switch radio stations and you are guaranteed musical variety.

You can also remember the good old newspaper dancing competition. To do this, each couple is given a newspaper on which they dance. When the music stops, the newspapers are folded in half and the dancing continues. This is repeated until the “dance floor” becomes so small that you can dance on it only on your toes, lifting your partner in your arms. The couple that lasts the longest wins the prize.

Or you can dance and change clothes at the same time. Prepare a box (for example, from a coffee maker) and put various accessories in it in advance, such as hats, bandanas, ties, children's crowns, masks. If you have old clothes lying around on the mezzanine, for example, wide pants and skirts, you can also add them to the general pile. Now we pass the box around in a circle to the music. When the music stops, the one who has the box in his hands takes out the first thing he comes across at random and puts it on himself. The dancing continues...

New Year's predictions

It will be very fun and effective to read the thoughts of all your guests. This action also requires preliminary preparation. Choose for each friend a phrase from a famous song that will characterize his thoughts. It is important to do this with a certain amount of humor, so that it is fun and not offensive. Record these song fragments on a tape recorder with pauses of a few seconds. Tell your guests that you can read minds and will now demonstrate it. Approaching each one in turn, you begin to make mysterious movements above his head with your hand. Meanwhile, with your other hand, you turn on the music from the remote control. And everyone hears the “thoughts” of the “victim”. When the laughter and jokes about this have died down, proceed in the same way to read the thoughts of the next guest. And be sure to have a few extra pieces in stock. After all, guests are unpredictable things. There may well be more of them than initially planned...

And if you have a little free time, a desire to tinker and surprise guests, prepare real predictions. After all New Year and Christmas are unusual and mysterious holidays. So, on small pieces of colored paper, write or print one universal phrase that can serve as an answer to any question posed. Predictions based on Runes are well suited for this purpose. Here are examples: “You are moving towards an improvement in your life situation. This applies to both deeds and ideas,” “There seems to be an obstacle in your path, but a delay can be favorable.” Now, carefully, so as not to damage the shell, crack the required amount walnuts. Take out the contents and put your prediction into each nut. First, the sheet needs to be folded like an accordion, then bent in half and tied with rain. Add glitter and confetti to the shell. Carefully apply PVA glue to the edge of the shell and connect it to the other half. Place fortune-telling nuts in a wicker basket or vase with New Year's tinsel and invite guests to think about the most important question in the new year. Then everyone takes out a nut with the answer. Such “predictions” are very impressive things. After all, the nuts look absolutely whole...

If you try at least once to say “no” to boredom and take the first step towards the holiday, the holiday will certainly respond. Both adults and children will happily come to your home, wanting to once again plunge into the atmosphere of warm, rosy, reckless fun. You are ready? Then go ahead, towards the holiday...

Secret connections
To play, you will need numbered cards corresponding to the number of participants.
Cards with numbers are laid out on the table, numbers down. The participants in the game draw lots. Participant No. 1 immediately reveals himself. He plays the role of a "detective".
The remaining participants (let's say there are only 20 of them) are given a task: using secret methods of communication, divide into four groups. The first group should include participants who drew numbers from 2 to 5; to the second group - from 6 to 10; in the third - from 11 to 15; in the fourth - from 16 to 20. All participants must remain in their places, without revealing their belonging to any of the groups. The members of each group secretly agree to carry out some common task.
The task of the “detective” is: firstly, to discover groups, naming those who are members of them, and secondly, having exposed “secret connections”, to name those joint actions that each group has agreed on. Thirdly, as the task is completed, the “detective” can expose the participants by guessing their numbers based on some signs. If the number called by the “detective” is guessed correctly, that participant is eliminated from the game. If the number is named incorrectly, the “detective” receives a penalty point, and the participant continues to work without calling his real number. Depending on the number of penalty points, you can give appropriate tasks to the “detective” according to a “penalty scale” specially developed for this purpose.
The winner is the detective who scores fewer penalty points.

Target
Guests are given blank sheets of paper and a pencil. The presenter invites them to draw a large circle on the sheet, inside which there are 4 more circles (in the form of a target of 5 circles). Place a point in the middle and draw 2 perpendicular lines through it. The result was 4 sectors. Guests are invited to write: in 1 circle (from the center) - letters R, P, S, L. in the 2nd circle - numbers from 1 to 4 in any order, in the 3rd circle - one name of an animal, bird, insect, in the 4th circle - 4 adjectives (preferably funny - fat, drunk, creeping, etc.) in the 5th circle - 4 any proverbs. The presenter collects the completed targets and begins to read them out indicating its author: the letters in the center of the circle mean R-work, P-bed, S-family, L-love, numbers - where each of the guests has work, family, bed and love, animal + definition - who he is in work, bed, family and love (for example, it may turn out that at work he is a “greedy jackal”, and in bed “a fat dog”), a proverb is a motto this person in work, family, bed, love (for example, it may turn out that in bed his motto is “work loves fools”, and in the family “no matter how much you feed the wolf, everyone looks into the forest”). It turns out very funny!!

WE WILL MAKE LIDS
Participants in the game are invited to look from a distance at a set of cans of various sizes and shapes. You cannot pick them up. Each player has a piece of cardboard from which they must cut out the lids so that they exactly match the holes of the cans. The winner is the one with the most lids that exactly match the openings of the cans.

PIG
For this competition, prepare some delicate dish - for example, jelly. The participants' task is to eat it as quickly as possible using matches or toothpicks.

HARVESTING
The task of the players of each team is to move the oranges to a certain place as quickly as possible without using their hands.

TEAR THE NEWSPAPER
With one hand, right or left, it doesn’t matter - tear the newspaper into small pieces, while the hand is extended forward, free hand can't help. Who will do the smallest job?

FAIRY TALE
When you have at least 5-10 guests (age does not matter), offer them this game. Take a children's book with a fairy tale (the simpler the better, “Ryaba Hen”, “Kolobok”, “Turnip”, “Teremok”, etc. are ideal). Choose a leader (he will be the reader). From the book, write down all the characters of the fairy tale on separate pieces of paper, including, if the number of people allows, trees, stumps, a river, buckets, etc. All guests pull out pieces of paper with roles. The presenter begins to read the fairy tale, and all the characters “come to life”….

LAUGHING
Any number of participants can play. All participants in the game, if it is a free area, form a large circle. In the center is the driver with a handkerchief in his hands. He throws the handkerchief up, while it flies to the ground, everyone laughs loudly, the handkerchief is on the ground - everyone calms down. As soon as the handkerchief touches the ground, this is where the laughter begins, and from the funniest we take a forfeit - this is a song, a poem, etc.

ROPE
It is necessary that the majority of those gathered have not played it before. In an empty room, a long rope is taken and a labyrinth is stretched so that a person, while passing, crouches somewhere and steps somewhere. Having invited the next player from the next room, they explain to him that he must go through this labyrinth blindfolded, having first remembered the location of the rope. The audience will give him hints. When the player is blindfolded, the rope is removed. The player sets off, stepping and crawling under a non-existent rope. Spectators are asked in advance not to give away the secret of the game.

ROLL
This game will help all your guests get to know each other. Guests sitting at the table pass a roll of toilet paper around. Each guest tears off as many scraps as he wants, the more the better. When each guest has a stack of scraps, the host announces the rules of the game: each guest must tell as many facts about himself as he has torn scraps.

WITH SIGNS
At the entrance, each guest receives his new name - a piece of paper with the inscription is attached to his back (giraffe, hippopotamus, mountain eagle, bulldozer, bread slicer, rolling pin, cucumber, etc.). Each guest can read what the other guests are called, but, naturally, cannot read what he himself is called. The task of each guest is to find out his new name from the others throughout the evening. Guests can only answer “Yes” or “No” to questions. The first one to find out what is written on his piece of paper wins.

JOKE GAME
All guests stand in a circle and put their hands on each other's shoulders. The presenter says “duck” or “goose” in everyone’s ear (randomly, say “duck” more players). Then he explains the rules of the game: “If I now say: “Goose,” then all the players whom I called so will tuck one leg. And if “Duck,” then the players whom I called “Duck” will tuck both legs.” You are guaranteed a heap.

"MYSTERIOUS CHEST"
Each of the two players has their own chest or suitcase, in which various items of clothing are folded. The players are blindfolded, and at the command of the leader they begin to put on things from the chest. The players' task is to dress up as quickly as possible.

COLORS
The players stand in a circle. The presenter commands: “Touch yellow, one, two, three!” Players try to grab the thing (object, part of the body) of the other participants in the circle as quickly as possible. Those who do not have time are eliminated from the game. The presenter repeats the command again, but with a new color. The last one standing wins.

RIDE THE BALL
All competition participants line up in teams of 3 people. Each “three” of players receives a tight volleyball. At the signal from the leader, one of the three players, supported by the elbows of two other players, steps on the ball and rolls it. The group that reaches the finish line first wins.

DRAW THE SUN
This relay game involves teams, each of which lines up in a single column. At the start, in front of each team there are gymnastic sticks according to the number of players. A hoop is placed in front of each team, at a distance of 5-7 meters. The task of the relay participants is to take turns, at a signal, running out with sticks, placing them in rays around their hoop - “draw a sun.” The team that completes the task faster wins.

SPEEDWALKERS
Participants are asked to stand on the base of a dumbbell with one foot and push off the floor with the other to overcome a given distance.

SCULPTORS
Participants in the game are given plasticine or clay. The presenter shows or names a letter, and the players must, as quickly as possible, create an object whose name begins with this letter.

EVERYTHING IS THE OVERSEAS
Players are invited to try to draw or color something, but with their left hand, and those who are left-handed use their right.

POSTMAN
Team game. In front of each team, at a distance of 5-7 meters, on the floor lies a thick sheet of paper, divided into cells in which the endings of names are written (cha; nya; la, etc.). Another sheet of paper with the first half of the name is cut in advance into pieces in the form of postcards, which are folded into shoulder bags. The first team numbers put their bags on their shoulders, at the leader’s signal, they rush to the paper sheet on the floor - the addressee, take out a postcard with the first half of the name from the bag and put it to the desired ending. When they return, they pass the bag to the next player on their team. The team whose mail finds its addressee faster wins the game.

"JOURNEY IN THE DARKNESS"
This game will require bowling pins and blindfolds according to the number of participants. Team game. The pins are placed in a “snake” pattern in front of each team. Teams holding hands and blindfolded try to go the distance without hitting the pins. The team whose team has the fewest pins knocked down will win the “trip.” The number of pins not knocked down equals the number of points.

COSMONAUTS
Along the edges of the site, 6-8 triangles are drawn - “rocket launch sites”. Inside each of them they draw circles - “rockets”, but always several circles less than the players. All participants stand in a circle in the center of the site. At the command of the leader, they walk in a circle, holding hands, saying the words: “Fast rockets for walking around the planets are waiting for us. We’ll fly to whichever one we want! But there’s one secret in the game: there’s no room for latecomers!” After that, everyone runs to the “rocket launch site” and takes their places in the “rocket”. Those who do not have time to take a place are eliminated from the game.

IN A FIELD GROWN... A SHIRT
Cards with pictures (a roll of fabric, a ball, a spinning wheel, a flax bush, a spindle, a shirt) are hidden in an envelope. Participants in the game need to quickly arrange the cards so that the path that the shirt “takes” from the flax bush to the finished model is created.

WE ARE ALL FRIENDLY GUYS...
Participants in the game are invited to jump with a rolling pin for as long as possible, breaking into pairs, threes, and fours of players.

LITERARY SCIENTISTS
Episodes or quotes, or individual phrases from some literary work are read to participants in the competition. Participants must choose from a variety of books the one they think is being discussed. The first one to name the correct answer receives the title of winner.

About how to turn a birthday into a fun, unusual event with the help of games for the whole company. All games are connected in one way or another with wishes to the birthday person and can replace the traditional exchange of toasts. Preparation for the games is minimal, and as a result, everyone will remember this day!

Good luck to you friends!

Each participant is given several pieces of paper. On each of them you need to write (without showing anyone) the name of any character (celebrity, book character, movie character, cartoon character, etc.)
All the leaves must be folded several times so that what is written is not visible.

The point of the game is that each participant will draw out a piece of paper with a character, which he will become for one round of the game. The rest will guess))

Previously, we pulled out leaves for everyone and glued them on their foreheads. But this is not very convenient, and not everyone likes it, so the process was simplified a little.

Here's how we play: The first volunteer closes his eyes, pulls out a piece of paper with the character’s name and, without opening his eyes, passes it to his neighbor. The neighbor reads what was written and passes the piece of paper on so that all participants read what was written.

The leaf is laid down, the volunteer opens his eyes.

I repeat that the essence of the game: each player must guess the name of his character (which he naturally does not see).

How to guess? IN classic version In the game, the one whose name we must guess asks questions.

In practice it quickly became boring and we began to play differently.

The person guessing asks: “Who am I?”

And the participants take turns or in random order, talk about the Character (You are...)
The softest thing is to speak at length, beautifully and incomprehensibly, actively using the pattern of uncertainty.

What does Guessable do?

Firstly, he enjoys! Why? Because the stories about the character are so interesting that even when you guess it, you don’t say it right away, you want to listen to everyone))

Secondly, he can ask clarifying questions.

For the New Year 2015, I received 1000% pleasure from this game (we played from the evening until 3-4 in the morning)

Having found out during the discussion that man is also an animal, a tradition was established to begin each round with the phrase: “You are an animal!”
As a rule, this was followed by a clarification: “You are an archetypal animal”))

So figure out who they wished for: Babu Yaga or Cthulhu?))

It was funny to watch the surprise on Seryoga’s face, who was told: “You’re not even an animal!” (The character was Kapitoshka)

And the pleasure I got when I got “Schrodinger’s Cat” cannot be described in words. Mutually exclusive statements about my character rained down from all sides, and guessing the cat was a real thrill.

In short, if you like intellectual games, like to use your imagination - this game is for you!

It is interesting to spend time in a company where everyone knows each other well. One of the participants becomes the leader, he leaves the room, the rest make a guess for someone present. The returning leader can ask the whole group questions like this: “If this person were a tree (bird, weather, landscape, fruit, etc.), what kind?”

Leading: Now we will give gifts to each other. Starting with the leader, everyone in turn uses pantomime to depict some object and passes it to their neighbor on the right (ice cream, hedgehog, weight, flower, etc.) They show this to the person sitting next to them using facial expressions and gestures. As soon as the person sitting has guessed correctly, he can wish for his gift to the next player sitting behind him. You can explain only with the help of facial expressions and gestures. The one to whom it was given can support the action. For example, pantomime to show how he unwraps a gift, twirls it, and so on. And of course, say “Thank you!”

The presenter calmly and clearly pronounces one syllable out loud: “Ha.” Further in the circle, the next guest loudly and clearly pronounces the next two syllables: “Ha-ha.” The third participant supports the previous two and continues: “Ha ha ha.” And so on!

The host divides the guests at the table into approximately 5 groups. (even 1-2 people in a group).
Leading:
Now we will listen to the Georgian choir! To do this, each group will rhythmically sing (pronounce) their words. The first group begins the choir with their phrase, repeating it continuously without stopping. As soon as the 1st phrase has been heard once or twice, the 2nd part joins the choir (at the command of the leader). Then the 3rd and 4th parties join one after another. The 5th part is spoken with the longest pauses between phrases.
