New Year's games for a small group of adults. Merry New Year contests: home, restaurant, corporate

We start preparing for the New Year

I have never seen in my life that at the end of November they decorate Christmas trees, decorate the city with garlands, light festive inscriptions, preparing for the New Year. Some nonsense! At work, in the children's center, there is already a forest beauty, and the front door is garlanded with semaphores. I went to the hairdresser - the same picture: tinsel, sequins, beads, Christmas tree, garland, New Year.

And why did everyone start decorating the Christmas tree so early? - I ask.

I want a holiday, we are already tired of terrorism, deaths, exorbitant prices, there is absolutely no positive left in life, - the hairdressers answered in unison.

And that's right. New Year is always positive, relaxation, joy, gifts, even despite the prices, champagne, fireworks and all that. We, Russians, are simply obliged to think about the positive, so let's prepare for the New Year all together.

New Year's table competitions

New Year is a family holiday, and it is so important to keep and pass on traditions. In every family, the New Year goes about the same way: they set the table, dress up in the best or new costumes and sit down long before the chiming clock. And in many families they also try to spend the Old Year “in Kamchatka”, “in Vladivostok”, “in Kazakh”, etc., and in order not to sleep, I propose to hold simple games and contests in anticipation of midnight. All these amusements were repeatedly carried out by my acquaintances in different companies: in the family, in the circle of friends, with entire student groups, and even included teachers. The main thing - fun, festive and forget about everything!

Striptease competition

Two participants are selected, two chairs are placed in front of the guests. A few buttons are placed on chairs under rags or thin towels. Turn on striptease music. The task of the participants, moving on a chair with a booty, is to guess how many buttons are hidden under the towel. The process of moving to music is of interest. The winner receives a prize. Then the next two perform.

Student game "Don't be stupid"

For the game you will need a deck of cards, the number of participants is unlimited, but it is better when there are more than 8 to 20. It is played at a laid table with filled glasses of champagne. Before starting the game, you should familiarize yourself with the rules. The cards lie mixed in the deck: sixes, sevens, tens, jacks, ladies, kings, aces (all suits except eights and nines). Cards are drawn in turn, one at a time.

Ace- you miss a move.

King- the neighbor on the right makes a toast and drinks one.

Lady Raise a toast and drink it yourself.

Jack- you figure out what the neighbor across the street will do after you say a toast and drink, for example, dance "macarena", sing a song, or before every time you drink, you will say a tongue twister: "Greek rode across the river ..." or any other.

10 - the players quickly raise their hands together, whoever raised the last one says a toast and drinks.

6 - the player thinks of what to do to the neighbor on the left before he says a toast and drinks, the tasks can be different, for example, everyone who raises their glasses must not forget and always pronounce the same ritual phrase: “Kh ... yes, be all healthy, cheerful, young, cheerful and happy! ”, And after that everyone should clap their hands three times. You can tell a joke, eat two tangerines, smell your neighbor's sleeve, etc., you can think of anything.

Sticker game

The number of participants is unlimited, but it is better from 5 to 15. You can decide in advance on the theme of the game, for example, “Pets”, “Wild plants”, “Heroes of fairy tales”, to make it funnier, you can come up with a funny topic, for example, “Reptiles”, "Tools", etc. Players sit in a circle, each with a name sticker attached to their foreheads, for example, "baobab", "crocodile", etc., depending on the topic. Each of the participants does not know what is written on his forehead, but he sees the inscriptions on the others, he can ask a question, for example: “Am I a person?”. The remaining participants must answer only “yes” or “no”. In case of a positive answer, the active participant has the right to ask one more question: “Am I kind?” etc. In the case of a negative answer, the move passes to the next participant, who asks similar questions, and the previous opponent reflects on the next question. And so on in a circle, until each of the participants guesses the correct name of himself. The game is aimed at the development of thinking, both logical and figurative.

Competition "Gourmet"

Participants are blindfolded and asked to try and guess what is put on the plate (each has its own personal one). Then the contestants are given a list with the name of the tested products, and they put down in front of each name the number under which, in their opinion, there was a treat. Products need to be bought in advance, you can use several categories of products, for example, nuts or dried fruits, berries.

The task of the participants- remember and recognize the taste of the presented product. This competition can also be called educational, because here you can get acquainted with the taste of new dishes.

Contest "Siamese twins"

Two pairs of participants are chosen, they go two by two to the center of the room and stand side by side, holding hands. The touching hands are tied, and with free hands, that is, one of the participants is left and the other is right, they must wrap a gift in a bundle prepared in advance, tie it with a ribbon and tie it in a bow. Fans can support the players with shouts and applause. Whose pair will cope faster and better - receives a prize. The most interesting thing is observing the clumsiness of the players' movements.

Game "Coin"

Two participants are selected, necessarily a guy and a girl. The guy lies on the floor, a coin is placed on his stomach, the smaller the coin, the better, the complexity of the game depends on its size. A girl lies on top of him, tightly closing the coin. They must turn over so that the coins are on the girl's stomach. If the coin fell, then the player who is to blame for the fall must kiss his partner. If the couple - coped successfully, she receives a prize and has the right to choose the next couple for the "experiment".

Game "Touchless"

4-5 girls are selected and stand in a row. Men (4-5) are blindfolded and hands behind their backs. In turn, each of them approaches the girl and must, without the help of hands, only with the help of one head, guess which girl is in front of him. Hands are tied, so men have to literally lick, sniff their partner. Everyone just falls out of laughter from this "heartbreaking" picture. The winner, the one who correctly guessed all the girls, receives a prize.

Game "Hat"

Participants are divided into two teams: one - at one end of the table, the other - behind the other. In advance, on pieces of paper, each player writes his own name. You can choose a specific topic: heroes of Dostoevsky's novels, cartoon characters, actors, etc. The papers are placed in a hat (hence the name of the game) and mixed. Then the player of one of the teams pulls out a piece of paper by lot and tries to describe the character with words without naming him. You can not use the same root words and say with what letter the word begins. Use of synonyms, metaphors, detailed explanations is allowed. You can not directly name the name of the work, cartoon or movie in which the character participates.

Players of the other team must guess the hero's name. 2 minutes are allocated for the description of each hidden hero. If they guessed it during this time, the next piece of paper is pulled out by the next player of this team, who describes the character that fell out, etc. If, after the appointed time, the player has not been able to explain the next word to the opponents, then the card is returned to the header. If the opposing team did not guess the encrypted image within the agreed time, the move goes to them (and the card is returned to the hat), that is, the players of this team take turns pulling papers out of the hat and describing the hero. The opposite side of the table guesses. If the player violated the rules, then the card is removed from the game. This is an intellectual game and is aimed at mental activity, it lasts until there is not a single card left in the hat. You can replace verbal descriptions with pantomime, so it will be even more interesting.

We are getting ready for the New Year.

I have never seen in my life that at the end of November they decorate Christmas trees, decorate the city with garlands, light festive inscriptions, preparing for the New Year. Some nonsense! At work, in the children's center, there is also a forest beauty already standing, and the front door is garlanded with semaphores. I went to the hairdresser - the same picture: tinsel, sequins, beads, Christmas tree, garland, New Year.

And why did everyone start decorating the Christmas tree so early? - I ask.

I want a holiday, we are already tired of terrorism, deaths, exorbitant prices, there is no positive left in life at all, - the hairdressers answered in unison.

And that's right. New Year is always positive, relaxation, joy, gifts, even despite the prices, champagne, fireworks and all that. We, Russians, are simply obliged to think about the positive, so let's prepare for the New Year all together.

We hold competitions at the New Year's table.

New Year is a family holiday, and it is so important to keep and pass on traditions. In every family, the New Year goes about the same way: they set the table, dress up in the best or new costumes and sit down long before the chiming clock.

Cards are drawn in turn, one at a time.

Ace - you miss a move.

King - a toast is made by a neighbor on the right and drinks one.

Lady - raise a toast and drink it yourself.

Knave - you figure out what the neighbor will do opposite after you say a toast and drink, for example, dance "macarena", sing a song, or before every time you drink, you will say a tongue twister: "The Greek rode across the river ..." or any other.

You can tell a joke, eat two tangerines, smell your neighbor's sleeve, etc., you can think of anything.

It is impossible to prompt, if a person has forgotten, then he is stupid, and will drink until he remembers how it should be. If suddenly he missed something or did it in the wrong sequence, he says a toast again and drinks, but he must remember what he did wrong and do everything right. The goal of the game is to be attentive and not make mistakes in "extreme" conditions. Champagne can be replaced with other drinks, including non-alcoholic ones, but it will not be so interesting with them. You can complicate the rules at your discretion. Fantasy is welcome.

How to entertain guests at home? This problem has certainly been faced and still will be faced by those who decided to gather a company of friends or relatives. This task can be even more difficult than choosing gifts or decorating a room. To help with the decision, we have tried to collect some useful tips in this article.

Training

If you are going to celebrate homemade ideas for preparation, you should draw from your head, calling for inspiration. Who, besides yourself, best knows the tastes and interests of the guests? So do not be shy and let your imagination run wild, and then New Year's Eve chores will turn into another, additional part of the holiday.

Present

The most important thing to think about in the first place is gifts. It is not enough to choose something that every guest will like, it is also desirable to present it in an original way. The simplest and most banal is to put beautifully wrapped gifts under the Christmas tree. If everything was chosen individually, then it is still better to sign each box in order to avoid confusion and unpleasant surprises later.

There are more original ways to entertain guests on New Year's Eve. Buy universal gifts, such as unpretentious souvenirs, T-shirts with funny inscriptions or pictures in honor of the symbol of the coming year, greeting cards, notebooks - in general, something that will please any of the guests. Arrange them in different boxes so that it is impossible to guess the size of the gift by the size of the package. And now hang it all on the Christmas tree, and let the guests choose what they like. It will turn out such a kind of lottery, and no one will be offended for what they gave him. It is possible to make this idea a part of competitions, if in this way the winner will receive his prize.

Entourage

When wondering how to entertain guests for the New Year at home, you need to think about the theme of the event. Everything, of course, depends on the company that will gather, but there are several universal options suitable for any occasion.

Carnival or costume ball

When inviting guests to be sure to warn them about this specifics of the holiday. After all, no one wants to feel out of place by being dressed inappropriately, right? But just in case, you should still have a spare prop for those who forgot or did not have time to prepare. Elegant masks for women and false beards for men, cardboard crowns, hats or caps - all this will help you cheaply and without any hassle to turn your guests' outfit into a carnival.

Theme party

A great way to entertain guests on New Year's Eve is to dedicate the holiday to a specific theme. In this case, the main thing is not to make a mistake with her choice. If among your guests there are young people obsessed with computers and gadgets, then they may be bored at an impromptu medieval ball, and vice versa, connoisseurs of the Middle Ages and knights may not like a steampunk holiday. When choosing a treat, you should also take into account the tastes and preferences of your guests.

The idea for a theme for a holiday may come to mind unexpectedly, but if there is no inspiration, you can use several win-win options:

- Masquerade. Guests do not even have to rack their brains over costumes, because it is enough to add a mask to any evening outfit - and now you can already feel the mysterious spirit of a masquerade.

- Fantasy party. Suitable for those who are not averse to plunge into the world of elves and dwarves, magic and battles. True, here the preparation must begin in advance, because the manufacture of the costume may take some time.

- Fairy tale party - Another option on how to entertain guests for the New Year at home. Children will be especially delighted with such a holiday, but often adults also return to the world of childhood with pleasure.

- Party in the style of the 60s(80s, 90s, etc., depending on how old most of your guests are). Here it may be enough to decorate the house in the right style, pick up music from the right time - and now the right atmosphere has already been created.

- pajama party- a great way to have fun with your friends.

- "Babel". Invite guests to dress up in traditional attire of the country they are interested in and bring one or two dishes that are eaten by its inhabitants. Let everyone tell a little about her culture, maybe teach the others a couple of phrases in her language. So the holiday will be not only fun, but also educational for everyone.

New Year with friends

Having gathered for a holiday with an adult company, it is not at all necessary to spend the whole night at the table, watching TV. There are a thousand and one scenarios for the New Year at home for adults, so with creativity and imagination, you can turn ordinary gatherings of a friendly company into something unforgettable.

treat

You can add a touch of mystery to the festive treat. To do this, it is enough to bake pieces of paper with predictions for the coming year into cookies, pies or buns. You can arrange a competition, for this one of the pies bake a special "secret" (a coin or other small object). The one who gets it will be able to choose a gift from under the Christmas tree. Just don't forget to warn the guests so that the winner doesn't accidentally hurt their teeth.

Entertainment for an adult company

Do not be upset if you had to stay at home for the New Year. at home, and even with an adult company - you can write entire books about this. The absence of children at the holiday in general opens up a sea of ​​\u200b\u200bopportunities for fun.

- Fanta- The game is universal, simple and fun. To carry it out, you just need to collect one small thing from each of the players. We put the entire “catch” in a box, bag or opaque bag. The host (it can be anyone who does not really want to take an active part in the undertaking) takes out one item at a time without showing the rest, and asks what to do with this phantom. And what the answer will be depends on the specifics of the gathered company (and on the amount of alcohol taken, perhaps, so if you want to be crazy, hold a contest towards the end of the holiday).

- twister- Another traditional way to entertain guests for the New Year at home. Perfect for a youth company (after all, participants need to have at least minimal flexibility).

- Mafia- a game for fans of psychological puzzles and those who want to practice their gift of persuasion. At first, everyone is assigned a certain role (civilian, mafia, policeman or doctor). The task of civilians is to figure out all the mafiosi and put them in jail, the task of the mafiosi is to “kill” as many civilians as possible, and preferably also police officers with doctors, while not impersonating themselves.

- Puzzles. It would seem like child's play, but it can be a great option for entertaining guests on New Year's Eve at the table. At the same time, the complexity and “maturity” of the puzzles can be chosen for the assembled company.

If you decide to spend your holiday in the style of "Babylonian pandemonium", then guests can be invited to play games traditional for different countries of the world. For example, the Cambodian game "akugun". Players throw some fruits to each other, for example, tangerines. To win, you need to hold as many fruits as possible in your hands without dropping them. You can arrange an impromptu home bowling alley (Thai game "saba"), where instead of pins there will be plastic bottles.

- Dancing on the newspaper. A very close game, during which the guests, who have broken into pairs, must dance on the newspaper without stepping beyond it. The trick is that over time, the leader folds the newspaper in half for as long as it is generally possible.

-Divination. What does it do without making wishes for the next year under the chiming clock? Turn this seemingly banal action into an attraction. Have everyone write their warmest wishes for the other guests on a piece of paper and throw it in a hat or box. Having pulled out a piece of paper with a fallen wish, the audience will be able to find out what awaits them for the next year. It will be even more fun if each wish is divided into two, and then, by the will of the lot, connect the different halves.

Family New Year

One of the most important tasks of the hosts who invite guests to their place is to develop a scenario for the New Year at home. A family holiday is always an occasion for relatives to show how much they love each other. That is why it is worth filling this holiday with an atmosphere of warmth and love.

Help in this can create comfort in the festive decoration of the house. Let the kids join in on this fun activity. Joint hanging toys on the New Year tree, cooking interesting sweets, recipes for which the children themselves will come up with, making various crafts on the New Year theme - all this will help you feel the spirit of the New Year long before it officially starts. And to make it more fun, you can guess riddles while preparing for the celebration. Let the child take a candy, tangerine or other sweet as a prize for each guess, then the wait for midnight will not seem painfully long to him.

Preparing for a family holiday

It is difficult to imagine in the family circle, especially if there are children in it, without a Christmas tree. Let the kids choose the toys they would like to see on it, and then ask them to help you hang them up. Perhaps they would like to see bright shiny new balls on the green branches? Go to the store and choose together what you like. Or maybe your children have favorite toys, even if they are old and worn, but very important? Let then the Christmas tree turn out vintage.

Many children love to make things with their own hands. Give them the opportunity to make their own decorations for the Christmas tree or just for the room. Snowflakes, paper garlands, snowmen - even the smallest can do all this. Let older children make more complex toys: Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden, beautiful complex lanterns.

Children's competitions

Snow collection. Scatter as many paper snowflakes on the floor as you can. Let the children collect them in bags at speed with cheerful music. The one who manages to collect the most will receive a sweet or memorable prize.

Puzzles. Find out which of the children is the most savvy by guessing riddles. The winner can be given a chocolate medal or other symbolic gift, and the rest, so as not to be offended, give consolation prizes.

Fun disco. The host turns on the music for a while, and then, turning it off, calls the number. All participants should be divided into groups with the named number of people. The time for everything is three seconds. Those who fail to do everything correctly are eliminated from the game.

Good luck. Arrange chairs in the middle of the room so that there is one less chair than the participants. To the music, the players walk around the chairs, and when the music stops, they must have time to sit on the chairs. The unsuccessful person leaves, and one chair is removed with him.

Guess. The participant is blindfolded and asked to identify by touch one of the New Year's objects. The one who was right most often wins.

Story. Invite the children to act out a play at home (adults are welcome to participate). Let everyone choose their favorite role, and then the narrator will read the beginning of the tale. Then you can either use ready-made scripts with time-tested dialogues and a well-known plot, or arrange improvisation.

A little final tip: when deciding how to entertain guests for the New Year, games, contests and other entertainment are best thought out in advance and discussed with future guests. However, even if plans changed at the last moment or nothing comes to mind for a long time, you should not be upset. Sometimes spontaneity and unpredictability make the holiday even more interesting than if everything was decided in advance.

The New Year is just around the corner, and the time of widespread corporate parties is approaching. Yes, and at home, many groups of friends will probably want to diversify their vacation with games. And now is the time to pick up contests for the New Year 2019.

Remember: what is ideal for a small group of vacationers is not at all suitable for a large corporate party. And at home you can afford more than in the same restaurant.

New Year's contests for a home holiday

In small companies, it is worth giving preference to those contests for the New Year, which involve the inclusion of all those present so that no one is bored. And it’s not so difficult to take 5–7 people in one competition.

Take care of prizes in advance. Even an adult wants to receive some material proof of his victory. Let it be the most ordinary sweets, tangerines or simple souvenirs with the symbol of the year. At the end of the evening, participants can count who has collected more prizes. It's also a lot of fun.

New Year's melody

For this competition, you will need several identical bottles into which water is poured to different levels. It turns out a kind of musical instrument. The bottles are put on the table, and guests are offered to perform any New Year's melody on these bottles with the help of an ordinary spoon. The winner is the one who, according to the general opinion, has extracted the most similar melody.

Joke with a beard

Each person in the group takes turns telling a joke. If one of the others says that he knows this anecdote and really continues it, then the narrator is put on a cotton beard. In the end, the one with the shortest “beard” wins. And the most "bearded" can be appointed Santa Claus.

Find a Christmas tree

Another very fun competition for the new year. To do this, you will need to pre-purchase a car flavor in the form of a Christmas tree. They usually have a very strong, specific smell. It is hidden somewhere in the room, and the guests must find the object by smell.

hold snowflake

This contest will again require some cotton wool. You need to make something like a small and light snowflake. It should be possible to keep it on weight with a stream of air. A snowflake is tossed up, and the participants must blow on it from below, preventing it from falling. The winner, of course, is the one whose snowflake later falls to the floor.

New Year's gift

3 people can participate in this competition at the same time. The gender of the participants does not matter. One of the three is placed in the center of the room. It will be a Christmas present. The other two are bred on opposite sides of the "gift" and blindfolded. One is given ribbons in his hands, he must tie bows on the gift by touch. The second one should also untie them to the touch.

Brook

This competition is designed for a rather warm company. A paper sheet is laid on the floor, long, but not too wide. A roll of standard wallpaper is ideal. Further, women are offered to overcome the "brook" without getting their feet wet, that is, to walk along its two banks, legs wide apart. The first time women try to do it with their eyes open, the second time with their eyes closed.

Moreover, when the first of them overcomes the "brook", the rest should be outside the room. When a woman finishes the test, but has not yet unleashed her eyes, one of the men present lies down on the "brook".

The woman's eyes are opened. She sees a man and, naturally, is embarrassed. Now the next woman is invited to participate. The first sees how the competition actually took place, calms down and laughs.

I have in my pants

This is just one of those rare occasions when ordinary newspaper headlines can be useful. Journalists are now especially zealously competing in originality. Cut out the most unexpected ones and put them in an envelope. Then this envelope starts in a circle. Each participant takes out one headline and says “and in my pants ...” and reads the headline from the pulled out piece of paper.

New Year's contests for a small company in a restaurant

In this case, there are some peculiarities. Funny contests for the new year in a restaurant can be quite moving, but not too much, so as not to damage the furniture and utensils. Therefore, it is not necessary to involve all those present in the competitions at once. It is better to involve 2-3 people. Contests are also welcome, allowing you to have fun without leaving the table. In this case, you can have fun even where there is no special agreement for this.

Congratulations alphabetically

Invite the guests to take turns congratulating the audience and say toasts, but not just like that, but alphabetically. The first one says a toast to the letter “a”, the second - to “b”, and so on. The most fun, of course, begins, towards the end of the alphabet, in the area of ​​the letters "y", "s", as well as a hard and soft sign. The winner is the one whose congratulations or toast will be the most fun.

The original is supposed to be a competition with a fake, drawn pie, on each piece of which predictions are written or drawn. So, a drawn penny portends wealth; heart, of course, love; envelope - news, news, and so on.

You can hold a contest with a real pie, in every piece of which such a prediction is hidden. Fortune-telling and predictions are invariably successful. People always want to know what the future holds for them. And even if fortune-telling is comic, it gives a lot of pleasure.

Storyteller

The perfect competition for the new year in a restaurant. Firstly, guests do not have to get up anywhere, and secondly, it is quite fun and interesting. Remind guests of the plots of several famous fairy tales, offer to choose one for themselves and retell it, but slightly changing the genre. It can be a detective story, a thriller, a romance novel. If desired, you can spend several rounds, changing fairy tales and changing genres. In each round, the author of the most interesting version is selected as the winner.

two oxen

Two participants are selected. They are placed with their backs to each other, a rope tied into a ring is thrown over them in the manner of a team. A chair or table with a prize is placed in front of each participant at a distance of several meters. The task of the participants is to pull the opponent and be the first to grab their prize.

Jelly

For this cool contest for the new year, you will need some kind of delicate product: jelly, jelly, soufflé. The task of the participants is to eat their portion as quickly as possible with the help of matches or toothpicks. This competition is good because it does not involve getting up from the table, it is quite fun for both participants and spectators.

cooks

Another "sitting" competition. Each participant is given a pen and a piece of paper, where he must write down all the New Year's dishes, for example, with the letter "n". When the lists are ready, the participants read them one by one. The one with the longest list wins.

You can slightly modernize this competition. Participants do not make preliminary lists, but simply take turns naming their dishes. Can't be repeated. Whoever finds it difficult to answer is out. The last one standing wins. This contest awakens the appetite very well, and it is convenient to hold it, for example, between appetizers and hot dishes.

New Year contests for corporate parties

Corporate events usually involve the presence in one place of a large number of people who are unfamiliar with each other. It is here that employees of different departments meet for the first time, who in ordinary life do not contact each other in any way, or even are at enmity. Therefore, competitions for New Year's corporate parties should unobtrusively bring people together. Here, team entertainment, pair competitions and the like are used.

Chief Accountant

On the poster, various banknotes in a variety of currencies are randomly drawn. Banknotes must be recognizable. The task of the participants is to count the banknotes starting from the first and ending with the last. Moreover, all currencies must be counted simultaneously: 1 ruble, 1 dollar, 1 euro, 2 euro, 2 dollars, 2 rubles. The one who never fails wins.

Diver

Since a separate hall is most often rented for corporate events, mobile contests can usually be afforded here. The diver competition will require two pairs of fins and two binoculars. Participants go to the start in twos, put on fins, take binoculars and, looking at it from the opposite side, try to overcome the distance as quickly as possible. It's quite difficult, so don't make the distance too long, and even more difficult, with a lot of turns and obstacles.

Baba Yaga

The meaning is similar to the previous one. Participants put one foot in the bucket and hold it with their hand. In the second hand they are given a mop. Baba Yaga in a mortar with a broom is ready. It remains only to find out which of the two (three) is more agile and faster.

Discoverer

Team competitions are also good for New Year's corporate parties. For example, next. Participants are divided into 2 teams and each of them is given a ball. First, the teams open a new planet, that is, inflate the resulting balloon. And then they pick up markers and begin to populate this planet. That is, to draw inhabitants on the ball. When the allotted time ends, the leader counts the inhabitants on both planets. The team with the largest population wins.

Damaged Phone and Associations

Do not forget about the good old, time-tested games. For example, a broken phone. Participants sit in a circle or a chain, depending on the capacity of the hall. In principle, you can play it without leaving the table. The first participant whispers a hidden word into the neighbor's ear. It is usually advised to do this quickly and indiscriminately. But in fact, no matter how you pronounce your word, there are many people in a long chain who hear it wrong. Whispering does not contribute to speech intelligibility. As a result, you need to compare the initial and final word.

The association game is not too different from the "telephone". In this case, the participants do not repeat the word they heard, but tell their neighbor their associations: Santa Claus - gifts - a holiday, and so on.

The main thing is that the suit sits

This competition is best held towards the end of the evening, when the guests are already slightly drunk, get to know each other and are ready for really fun competitions. A bag with various funny clothes is prepared in advance: felt boots, scarves, scarves, family underpants, diapers for adults, padded jackets, glasses with a mustache, and so on. The contestants are seated in a circle, and a bag of clothes is passed around the circle while the music is playing. When the music stops, the person who has the bag left, without looking, takes out one item from there and puts it on himself. The winner is the one who wears the least "competitive" clothes. However, by the end everyone looks fun.

Snowman

The participants are again divided into two teams and handed out to them 8 inflated balloons. Each team has its own color balls. For example: red and blue. Letters are written on the balls with a marker so that the result is the word "Snowman".

From these 8 balls you can make other words. This is what speed teams will do. The facilitator asks questions, the answers to which can be laid out from the given letters. A point is earned by the team that completes the task faster. The team that scores more points than the opponent wins.

paper dress

This competition is played in pairs. The task of a man is to create a toilet paper dress for his female model. You can't use anything but paper. But you can do anything with it: twist, plug, tie in a bow. The contestants retire to a separate room, then the girls come out and show off their outfits. Please note, the model should come out in THIS by itself. The audience chooses the winners.

When choosing contests for a corporate party, try to alternate between mobile and seated games. To begin with, choose calm and not too frivolous tasks, allowing the participants to get to know each other and loosen up. Toward the end, when people are already relaxed enough, you can afford more daring contests for the new year.

Accuracy
For a competition in accuracy, it is best to use the factory-made Darts game. An easier option is to throw markers or felt-tip pens (with an open cap) from a distance of 3-5 m at a target drawn on a piece of paper attached to the wall. The most accurate participant receives a prize point. The marker should be designed for drawing only on paper, then it will be easy to wash off any traces of it with alcohol.

best toast
The facilitator informs the participants that, without a doubt, a real man should be able to drink properly. However, the purpose of the competition is not to drink more than others, but to do it most gracefully. After that, each participant receives a glass of drink. The contestants take turns toasting and drinking the contents of the glass. The one who completes the task best of all receives a bonus point.

Competition of unusual sculptures
This competition is offered to men. From balloons of various sizes and shapes, they must fashion a female figure with the help of adhesive tape. It is desirable that for this competition men are divided into teams of 2-3 people. Women can be offered to mold a sculpture of a man. Some of the balloons may already be inflated, in addition, it is necessary to stock up on a sufficient number of uninflated balloons and threads.

The last player remaining in the game receives a prize.

We all have ears
The players become in a circle. The host says: "Each of us has hands." After that, each participant takes his neighbor on the right by the left hand and with the words “We each have hands”, the players move in a circle until they make a full turn. After that, the host says: “Everyone has necks,” and the game is repeated, only now the participants hold their right neighbor by the neck. Next, the facilitator lists the various parts of the body, and the players move in a circle, holding their neighbor on the right by the named part and shouting or singing: “Everyone has ...” The enumerated body parts depend on the facilitator's imagination and the degree of looseness of the players. For example, you can list arms (separately right and left), waist, neck, shoulder, ears (separately right and left), elbows, hair, nose, chest.

Dancing on the ice
Each pair of participants is given a newspaper. They must dance in such a way that none of the partners step on the floor outside the newspaper. At each signal from the leader, the newspaper is folded in half and the dance continues. The music changes all the time. If any of the partners left the newspaper during the dance, the couple is eliminated from the competition. The last pair left in the game receives a prize.

Auction "Pig in a Poke"
In between dances, you can hold an auction in the dark. The facilitator shows the participants the lots wrapped in wrapping paper so that it is not clear what is inside. To provoke the audience, the presenter in a comic form announces the purpose of this item. The auction uses real money, while the initial price of all lots is quite low. The participant who offered the highest price for the item redeems it.
Before being handed over to a new owner, the item is unwrapped to satisfy the curiosity of the public. It is advisable to alternate funny and valuable lots in order to increase the excitement of the public.

Bombers
Two or three glass jars and metal money are required for the game (it is advisable to prepare a trifle in advance, not hoping that the participants will find it themselves). Those wishing to take part in the competition are divided into two or three teams. Each team receives a glass jar and the same number of coins (at least three for each participant). The host marks the start line, at a distance of 5 meters from which he places the banks. The task of the participants is to hold a coin between their thighs, go to their jar and lower the coin into the jar without using their hands. The team that has thrown the most coins into the bank receives a prize.

Ball under the chin
Two teams are selected, which stand in two lines (in each alternation: a man, a woman) facing each other. The condition is that the players must keep the ball under their chin, during the transfer it is impossible to touch the ball with their hands in any case, while it is allowed to touch each other in any way, so as not to drop the ball.

Dress up the lady
Each lady holds a ribbon twisted into a ball in her right hand. The man takes the tip of the ribbon with his lips and, without touching his hands, wraps the ribbon around the lady. The winner is the one with the best outfit, or the one who completes the task faster.

resourceful guests
Several couples are invited. Each participant in the game is blindfolded. Then several clothespins cling to different parts of the clothes. At the signal of the leader, you need to remove all clothespins from your partner or partner. The pair that completes the task faster wins the competition.

Where to invest money?
The host calls two pairs (in each pair, a man and a woman): “Now you will try to open a whole network of banks as quickly as possible, investing only one banknote in each. Get the initial contributions! pockets, lapels, and all the hiding places. Try to clear your deposits as quickly as possible, open as many banks as possible. Get ready, start!". The facilitator helps the pairs to complete the task, after one minute the facilitator sums up the results. Presenter: "How many bills do you have left? And you? Great! All the money is invested in the business! Well done! And now I will ask the women to change places and withdraw the entire amount from their accounts as soon as possible. Open banks, withdraw money! Attention, let's start! ". (Music sounds, women seek money from other people's partners).

feed me
Guests are divided into pairs. Each pair contains a man and a woman. The task of each pair is to unfold and eat the candy that the leader will give by joint efforts without the help of hands. The first couple to do so wins.

Pass the card
Arrange the guests in a line "boy" - "girl" - "boy" - "girl". Give the first player in the line a regular playing card. The task is to pass the card from one player to another, holding it in the mouth. Do not use hands. You can complicate the task, and after each transfer, the host tears off a piece of the card. In this game, guests can be divided into teams and arrange a team competition.

kisses
The host calls two men and two women into the game. It is up to you to decide how best to distribute pairs of players - according to belonging to the same gender or the opposite. Then, blindfolding two participants, the host asks them questions, pointing to the one he wants to. "Tell me, where will we kiss? Here?" And he shows, for example, on the cheek (you can ears, lips, eyes, hands, etc.). The facilitator asks questions until the blindfolded participant says "Yes". Then the leader asks: "And how many times? So many?". And he shows on his fingers - how many times, each time changing the combination, until the player says: "Yes." Well, and then, having unleashed the participant's eyes, he is forced to do what he agreed to - for example, kiss the man's knee eight times.

The game is a joke
There will be no winners and losers in this game, this game is a joke to make guests laugh. It invites two participants - a man and a woman. The rules of the game are explained to the man - "now the lady will sit on this sofa and take a sweet candy in her mouth, and your task is to blindfold find this candy without the help of your hands and take it with your mouth too." The whole comedy of the situation lies in the fact that as soon as a man is blindfolded, a man is laid on a sofa or couch instead of the promised lady. Believe me, how long your chosen gentleman will try to find candy from the "lady", so many guests will laugh heartily.

I love - I don't love
The host asks all the guests sitting at the table to name what they like and what they don’t like about the neighbor on the right. For example: "I love the ear of my neighbor on the right and I don't like the shoulder." After everyone calls it, the host asks everyone to kiss what they like and bite what they don't like. A minute of stormy laughter is provided to you.

With closed eyes
Wearing thick mittens, you need to determine by touch what kind of person is in front of you. Guys guess girls, girls - guys. You can feel the whole person

Do not laugh
Players squat in a circle (woman-man-woman). Everyone is warned that it is impossible to laugh (the presenter is allowed). The host "solemnly" takes his right neighbor (neighbor) by the ear. Everyone else around the circle should do the same. When the circle is closed, the host takes the neighbor on the right by the cheek (nose, knee ....), etc. Those who laughed drop out of the circle. The rest wins.

The match cycle
The company becomes at the rate of MZHMZHMZHMZH in a circle, take a match, cut off the tip with sulfur ... The first person takes the match with his lips and passes it in a circle from person to person until the circle passes. After that, the match is cut off (about 3 mm) and the process is repeated ... And so on until a piece of 1 mm in size remains.

Sweeties
It is desirable that an equal number of M and F participate, who sit in a circle according to the MZHMZH scheme ... A baby doll / doll / toy / etc. is taken. Each of the players says in turn: "I'm kissing this baby here and there," and names the place where to kiss him. You can't repeat. When it comes to the fact that someone cannot name a new place to kiss, everyone takes turns fulfilling their last request with a neighbor (neighbor). Taking a certain amount of alcohol before (during) the game is only welcome.

Colors
The players become in a circle. The leader commands: "Touch yellow, one, two, three!" Players as quickly as possible try to take hold of the thing (object, part of the body) of the other participants in the circle. Who did not have time - leaves the game. The host repeats the command again, but with a new color (object). The last one left wins.

pin
Pins are taken (the number is arbitrary, usually approximately equal to the number of players), everyone except the leader is blindfolded, then the leader clings these pins to the participants (arbitrarily - you can do everything on one, you can on different ones) - then, naturally, the participants try to find them on each other . Moreover, if a person knows that he has a pin on him (for example, he felt how they clung to him), then he is obliged to be silent (you can’t look for pins on yourself). Since often the pins are hidden behind the lapels of the sleeves, on the back of the clothes, on the socks from the side of the soles, etc., the process of finding them is usually quite fun.

locomotive
Part of the company remains outside the door, from where they are called one by one in the order of "boy-girl". Everyone who enters sees a picture: there is a column of people ("boy-girl"), depicting a train. The host announces: "This is an erotic engine. The train is leaving." The column moves off and, depicting the movement of the train, makes a circle around the room. The host says: "Stop (such and such)." The train stops. After that, the first car kisses the second, the second - the third, and so on until the end of the train. After that, the person who entered is invited to take a place at the end of the composition. Leader: "The train is leaving!". Make a second circle around the room. Leading: "Stop (such and such)." Then - as usual: the first car kisses the second, the second - the third. But, when it comes to the last one, suddenly the penultimate one, instead of a kiss, makes a grimace and rushes at the last one with a cry. Not expecting such a disappointment, the last car can only hold a grudge against the newcomer.

Card
One playing card is required. Easily replaced by a calendar card or any suitable size cardboard. Before the start of the game, everyone is invited to learn how to hold the card in a vertical position with their lips by drawing in air. Make your lips "tube", as in a kiss. Attach the card to your lips, as if kissing its center. Now, drawing in air, release your hands, trying to hold the card so that it does not fall. After 3-5 minutes of exercise, almost anyone manages to hold the card for at least a couple of seconds. So, sit in a circle in the order "boy-girl". And thus, alternately holding the card on both sides, pass in a circle. A special revival is caused by an accidental fall of the card. You can play for speed, for time, for departure. The last option seemed to be the most preferable.

Extra dead
The game is built on the principle of the children's game "Extra dropped out." Of the guests, 5-6 people are invited to participate in the competition. Large glasses (or glasses) are placed on the table, one less than the number of participants. Vodka, cognac, wine (whatever you want) is poured into glasses. At the command of the facilitator (for example, clapping their hands), the participants begin to walk around the table. As soon as the host gives a prearranged signal (the same clap), the participants need to grab one of the glasses and immediately drink its contents. The one who did not have enough glasses is out. After that, one glass is removed from the table, the rest are filled, and the game continues in the same way as described above. The main thing is that the glasses should always be one less than the number of players. The game ends when either of the two remaining participants drinks the last glass. In the absence of snacks and sufficiently capacious glasses, the finale looks indescribable, since it is usually difficult to call it walking around the table.

Pencil
Teams in which men and women alternate (3-4 people) must pass a simple pencil from first to last, and it is passed sandwiched between the nose and upper lip of the players! Naturally, you can’t touch a pencil with your hands, but you can touch everything else with your hands. "A heartbreaking sight", especially if the people have already taken a certain amount of alcohol.

Zoo
A game for older preschool children, but at parties it goes with a bang. 7-8 people participate, each chooses an animal for himself and shows the others the characteristic movement of this animal. This is how "acquaintance" happens. After that, the leader from the side selects the starter of the game. That one must show "himself" and another "animal", this "animal" shows itself and someone else, and so on until the moment someone makes a mistake, i.e. will show another "animal" incorrectly or will show the one that was eliminated. The one who makes the mistake is out. The game ends when two remain.

The writing
The host distributes to everyone a blank sheet of paper and a pen (pencil, felt-tip pen, etc.). After that, writing begins. The facilitator asks the first question: "Who?". The players write the answer to it in their sheets (the options may be different, to whom it comes into their heads). Then they fold the sheet so that the inscription is not visible and pass the sheet to the neighbor on the right. The facilitator asks a second question, for example: "Where?". The players again write an answer to it and again fold the sheet in the above way, and again pass the sheet. This is repeated as many times as desired, until the host runs out of imagination for questions. The meaning of the game is that each player, answering the last question, does not see the results of previous answers. After the end of the questions, the sheets are collected by the presenter, unfolded, and the resulting essays are read out. It turns out very funny stories, with the most unexpected characters (from all kinds of animals to close friends) and plot twists.

In bags around the Christmas tree
2 people compete. They become bagged and kicked. The top of the bags is held by hand. On a signal, they run around the Christmas tree in different directions. The one who runs faster wins. The game continues with the next couple.

Felt boots
Large boots are placed in front of the Christmas tree. Two are playing. On a signal, they run around the Christmas tree from different sides. The winner is the one who runs around the Christmas tree faster and puts on boots.

Give the snowman a nose
2 coasters are placed in front of the Christmas tree, large sheets with the image of snowmen are attached to them. Two or more people participate. They are blindfolded. On a signal, they must reach the snowmen and stick their nose (it could be a carrot). Others help with words: to the left, to the right, below, above.

Catch a snowball
Several couples are involved. Participants stand facing each other at a distance of approximately 4 meters. One has an empty bucket, the other has a bag with a certain amount of “snowballs” (tennis or rubber balls). On signal 1, the participant throws snowballs, and the partner tries to catch them with a bucket. The pair that finishes the game first and collects the most snowballs wins.

The most sensitive
Only women participate in the competition. Participants stand facing the audience. Behind each is a chair. The facilitator discreetly places a small object on each chair. On command, all participants sit down and try to determine what kind of object is under them. Looking and using hands is prohibited. The one who decides first wins.

Chunky Lipslap
Props: a bag of sucking sweets (such as "Barberry"). 2 people are nominated from the company. They begin to take turns taking candy from the bag (in the hands of the host), put it in their mouths (swallowing is not allowed), and after each candy they call their opponent "thick-cheeked lip-slap". Whoever stuffs more sweets into his mouth and at the same time says the "magic phrase" will win. I must say that the game takes place under the cheerful shouts and whoops of the audience, and the sounds made by the participants in the game lead the audience to complete delight!

frosty breath
Before each participant, a snowflake cut out of paper of a sufficiently large size is placed on the table. The task is to blow off your snowflake so that it falls from the opposite edge of the table. It is held until everyone has blown away their snowflakes. After the last snowflake falls, announce: "The winner was not the one who first blew off his snowflake, but the one who last, because he has such frosty breath that his snowflake "froze" to the table."

Chief Accountant
On a large sheet of whatman paper, various banknotes are scattered around. They must be quickly counted, and the account must be kept as follows: one dollar, one ruble, one mark, two marks, two rubles, three marks, two dollars, etc. Whoever counts correctly, without getting lost, having reached the far banknote, is the winner.

Storyteller

two oxen
A long rope is put on the participants of the competition like a team, and each of the two participants tries to “drag” the opponent behind him, in his direction. At the same time, everyone tries to reach the prize, which is located half a meter from each player.

Horror
The conditions are as follows - there are five eggs in the cassette. One of them is raw, warns the presenter. The rest are boiled. It is necessary to break the egg on the forehead. Whoever gets raw is the brave one. (But actually, the eggs are all boiled, and the prize is just the last participant - he consciously ran the risk of becoming a laughingstock.)

most attentive
2-3 people play. The host reads the text: “I will tell you a story in a dozen and a half phrases. As soon as I say the number three, take the prize immediately. Once we caught a pike, gutted it, and inside we saw small fish, and not one, but as many as seven. “When you want to memorize poems, do not memorize them until late at night. Take it and repeat it once or twice at night, and preferably 10. “The hardened guy dreams of becoming an Olympic champion. Look, don’t be cunning at the start, but wait for the command: one, two, march!”. “Once I had to wait for a train at the station for 3 hours ...” (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.”

sea ​​wolf
The game is played by two teams of two people. The host gives the task: “If there is a strong wind at sea, the sailors know one trick - they tie the ribbons of the peakless cap under the chin, thereby tightly fixing them on their heads. Peakless cap - one per team. Each player executes the command with one hand.

The team in which the player number one is again in the hat wins.

break the pot
A pot is hung on a stake (you can put it on the ground or on the floor). The driver is blindfolded and given a stick. The task is to break the pot. To complicate the game, the driver can be "confusing": before giving a stick, circle around him several times.

funny monkeys
The host says the words: “We are funny monkeys, we play too loudly. We clap our hands, we stomp our feet, we puff out our cheeks, we jump on toes and even show tongues to each other. Together we will jump to the ceiling, we will raise our finger to the temple. We stick out the ears, the ponytail at the top. We will open our mouths wider, we will make grimaces. As I say the number 3, everyone with grimaces - freeze. Players repeat everything after the leader.

Baba Yaga
Relay game. A simple bucket is used as a mortar, a mop is used as a broom. The participant stands with one foot in the bucket, the other remains on the ground.

The first couple to “hobble” wins the “golden key” prize.

Banks

cooks
Each team has one member. We need people who are good cooks. For a certain time, it is necessary to draw up a festive menu, the names of dishes in which begin with the letter "H". Then, one participant from the team will come to the table and will announce their list in turn. Whoever says the last word wins.

Make your neighbor laugh
A leader is chosen at random. His task is to perform such an action with a neighbor on the right so that one of those present laughs. For example, the host takes his neighbor by the nose. Everyone else around the circle should do the same. When the circle is closed, the host again takes the neighbor, now by the ear, knee, etc. Those who laughed are eliminated from the circle. The winner is the last remaining participant.

Broken phone
A simple but very fun game known since childhood. One of the guests quickly and indistinctly, in a whisper, says a word to the neighbor on the right. He, in turn, whispers what he heard to his neighbor in the same manner - and so on in a circle. The last participant stands up and loudly pronounces the word passed to him, and the one who started the game says his own. Sometimes the result exceeds all expectations. A variant of this game is “Associations”, that is, the neighbor does not repeat the word, but conveys an association with it, for example: winter is snow.

Table run with obstacles
For the game, you will need cocktail tubes, tennis balls (for lack of it, you can crumple napkins) according to the number of participants in the race. Preparation: courses are prepared on the table according to the number of participants, i.e. put in a row at a distance of 30-50 cm from each other glasses, bottles. Players with a straw in their mouth and a ball are ready to start. At the signal of the leader, the participants must, blowing through the tube on the ball, lead 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.

The main thing is that the suit sits
To play, you will need a large box or bag (opaque) in which various items of clothing are folded: size 56 panties, caps, size 10 bras, glasses with a nose, etc. funny things. The host invites those present to update their wardrobe by pulling out some item from the box, on the condition that they do not remove it for the next half hour. At the signal of the host, the guests pass the box to the music. As soon as the music has stopped, the player holding the box opens it and, without looking, takes out the first thing that comes across and puts it on. The view is amazing!

And in my pants...
Before the game, blanks are made (cutting newspaper headlines, and the topics of the headlines can be very diverse. For example: “Down and Feather”, “Competition Winner”, etc.). The cutouts are placed in an envelope and run in a circle. Whoever accepts the envelope says loudly: “And in my pants ...”, then takes out a clipping from the envelope and reads it out. The resulting answers are sometimes very funny. The wittier the clippings, the more fun the game.

stash
Two married couples are chosen, the participation of newlyweds and another married couple is possible. You can also increase the number of participating couples.
The heads of each family are given an envelope with many banknotes of various denominations, but it is imperative that it be the same for both participants. After that, the husbands retire to another room and hide banknotes in their clothes (under clothes, in shoes, etc.). When the husbands return, the host of the evening announces that they need to "swap" wives. Then the fun begins - the wives begin to look for hidden stash from other people's husbands. And where they hid them, one can only guess, so the wives have to work hard before they find the hidden money. The winner is the married couple in which the husband managed to hide as much money as possible, and the wife managed to find them from someone else's husband.

guess the word
All participants are divided into two teams. The first team comes up with some tricky word, and then says it to one of the players on the opposite team. The task of the chosen one is to depict the hidden word without making a sound, only with gestures, facial expressions and plasticity of movements, so that his team can guess what was intended. After a successful guess, the teams switch roles. After some practice, this game can be complicated and made much more interesting by guessing not words, but phrases.

Statue of love
Several people are kicked out the door and run one at a time. The visitor is shown a boy and a girl and they are explained that they are sitters and he is a sculptor who must imagine a statue of love and put the boy and girl in accordance with his idea of ​​a statue. When the position of the sitters is sufficiently perverted and the author announces that he has finished the composition, he is told that he must take the place of the boy or girl in the statue. The next one enters, he is told that this is a statue of love, but bad, he must redo it, etc.

Bulb
Two people are selected, a guy and a girl. They are separated into different rooms and their roles are explained to them. The guy is told that he will have to enter the room, take a chair, and pretend that he is going to screw in the light bulb. He is also informed that his partner will interfere with him in every possible way, but he must convince her that this is how it should be. The girl is told that her partner will now hang himself, she must dissuade him from this. All this, of course, should happen without words. Participants are launched into a room where the audience already knows both tasks.

Abracadabra
Papers are written with the names of body parts and folded so that they cannot be read and put into some kind of bag. Then the first two people each take a piece of paper. And they are pressed by those parts of the body that are indicated in the pieces of paper. Then the second person pulls out the second piece of paper, where it is written which place the third person should touch. Then the third one pulls out his piece of paper (more precisely, two, but in turn). And thus, along the chain, until all the participants in the game run out, then everything starts in the second circle, without disengaging. The first grabs the last, the second grabs the first, and until the pieces of paper run out or until there is enough flexibility. The funniest thing is the leader who sees this abracadabra.

sayings
The host invites four participants of the game to the stage. Each of them is given a piece of drawing paper and a bright marker, as well as a card with a saying. Sayings need to be chosen in advance - the funnier they are, the more interesting. For example, such as "appetite comes with eating", "the eyes are afraid, but the hands are doing", "there is no fish and cancer", "work is not a wolf, it will not run away into the forest." In five minutes, the players must depict the meaning of their saying without using words and letters. Then each artist presents his masterpiece to the audience, and all those present guess the encrypted concept. The winner is the one whose concept was guessed, the losing participants - incentive prizes.

intoxicating competition

The young man needs to guess all the girls that are present. Hands are tied behind, so you have to act only with your head in the truest sense of the word. Everyone just falls out of laughter when a young man just sniffs the whole girl, licks or does something else with her. In general, the game goes with a bang. At the end of the game, the total is calculated: how many correct and incorrect answers. Based on this, the first place and the last place are awarded. Well, as usual - rewards, punishments at will.

The fastest one wins.

Scarecrow
Two teams of 3 people each (1 girl and 2 guys, it's more fun). The girl gets between the guys, and they have to dress the girl in a minute, but only with the clothes that they themselves have on (watches and rings are also considered). Accordingly, the team with the most clothes on the girl wins.

Dancing with chairs
The music stops - take off one piece of clothing, put it on the nearest chair, etc. dress the same way, who needs what.

The final

If he did not guess, he sings or reads a poem.

Associations
