Arranging a New Year's Eve for teenagers is not easy. They already consider themselves to be grown up from their children's matinees, but it is still too early for them to experience adult entertainment. Many themed contests involve adult guests due to alcohol use or ambiguous hints. Therefore, it is important for high school students to find games without connotations, but with humor and fervor.
General games
A cheerful mood can be created at the very beginning of the New Year's Eve. To do this, young guests receive halves of cards at the entrance and the task is to find their pair with the second part of the sheet. On separated cardboard boxes, you can print short poems about the New Year, draw or paste winter pictures, write paired names of literary and cartoon characters (Chip and Dale, Shrek and Fiona), etc. Half an hour or an hour is allotted for the search before the ceremonial start, and the winners receive pleasant souvenirs. At the same time, it is important to prepare more prizes, because the players can be agile.
A great game for a New Year's teenage party will be a balloon bursting contest. Everyone who wants to compete in this business receives a balloon and ties it with a thread to the ankle of the left leg. The task of each player is to step on the opponent's ball with his right foot so that it bursts, and at the same time save his own. Any number of people can listen to cheerful music, but there will be only one winner.
Another competition, which does not require the division of players into teams, should be left to end the evening. For him, all the participants stand in a circle, in the center is Santa Claus with a bag of small and equivalent in value gifts. The players pass each other a "snowball" of cotton or paper. At the signal of the presenter, the one in whose hands the “snowball” was found must read a verse, sing a song about the New Year (without repeating itself) or dance a few steps. The participant who received a prize from Santa Claus leaves the circle.
Team spirit
By dividing the guests of the evening into two or three teams, you can arrange several more contests. For the first, you will need pre-prepared ice cubes or snowballs of equal size. Each team forms a circle and, at the signal of the leader, passes a cold game projectile to each other, without holding it for a long time in the same hands. The winners are those who turn ice or snow into water faster.
Competitions for the creation of "snowmen" are designed for the competition of several pairs of people. In one of the options, a huge snow sculpture is created by putting on the largest boy and pushing balloons inside it. The winner is the couple who managed to put as many balls as possible inside the clothes. In another version, the snowman is obtained from a person wrapped in toilet paper. The one who quickly used up the whole roll to cover his partner gets the prize.
