In order not to sit around the table in the New Year and not get bored, entertain your guests with fun and lively contests. Prepare the necessary props and musical accompaniment in advance.
Start your holiday by giving away or even selling special tokens. Each token has to be written what needs to be done at a certain moment. It's very funny when, in the middle of the toast, one of the guests suddenly starts dancing or crowing.
The Princess and the Pea is a very funny competition for a lady. Wrap some small items in paper in advance: comb, mirror, lipstick. Place the packages on the chairs. In order to determine what is inside, women must sit on chairs. Those who name the item correctly take the surprise for themselves.
For the very height of fun, a contest called "Chain of Things" is suitable. Everyone present should be divided into two groups. The facilitator invites all team members to lay out a chain of clothes. You can use only those things that are worn by the participants. The one with the longer chain, that group won. If the game is not played at home, but in a club, only two people can participate. The rules are the same. You need to take off your clothes and put them in a chain. After that, the presenter invites the audience to help the participants. Anyone present can express a desire to take off their clothes in order to continue the chain of the player they like.
The presenter for the New Year can be a character-symbol of the next year. He must have a matching suit.
A very funny competition is called "Hit the Target". As a rule, men participate in it. The competition requires empty plastic or glass bottles, a 1-meter rope, colored pencils. Tie a pencil to one end of the string. Tuck the other end of the rope into the participant's belt. Place empty bottles on the floor. The goal of the participants: to hit the bottle with a pencil.
When all the guests are already "under the head", arrange the game "Snow Sniper". For her, you will need two buckets and many, many balls of cotton. All participants must split into two teams. The essence of the game is to throw balls into a bucket. It should be installed at a distance of 5-7 meters. The more participants in this game, the more interesting it is. The team that throws as many balls as possible into the bucket wins.
For contests, clean the room as much as possible. Move vases, figurines and other fragile items away from you.
There are fun games to play while sitting at the table. One of them is held during a toast. To do this, the host must have a set of the following items: a glass, a ladle, a saucepan, a 3-liter jar, a baby bucket, a ladle, a decanter, a glass and a vase. While the person is making a toast, the host takes turns showing him objects. When the toasting person sees an object from which he will drink, he must say the code phrase: "Pour, or I'll leave."
Another fun game at the table: guests take turns naming objects and symbols associated with the New Year. For example, Santa Claus, snowman and so on. The one who names the last New Year's attribute wins.
It's great if there is a Christmas tree in the room around which you can dance. Everyone joins hands, the presenter turns on the recording of the song "A Christmas tree was born in the forest." Participants lead round dances and sing along. When the recording stops, everyone should turn their backs to the tree. Now, in turn, everyone begins to remember what toys are on the tree. The one who calls the decoration the last one is the winner.
A very funny game called "New Year's Ball". Those present should be divided into two teams. Each of them should have no more than 4-5 people. The presenter puts two chairs in the center of the room and gives the teams a ball. At the command of the leader of the group, they must wrap the legs of their chair with thread. However, this is not the end. The team that winds the neat ball back wins.
