The main thing when preparing a family holiday is to create a pleasant home atmosphere. For this, it is not enough to decorate the room and the festive table. You need to make an interesting entertainment program. You can take a ready-made script, or show a little imagination and organize a unique evening that will be remembered by your whole family for a long time.

Instructions
Step 1
Prepare various quizzes, funny riddles, contests and tests in advance. You can play "Brain-ring", "Guess the melody", or arrange a portrait competition among the guests sitting at the table. It will then be interesting to recognize in these “masterpieces” drawn on a quick hand, dad, aunt or grandmother.
Step 2
Create a collection of karaoke songs based on the musical preferences of your loved ones. Not everyone can sing like Celine Dion, but for family gatherings this is not necessary. The main thing is not to take what is happening too seriously, criticism is not appropriate here. To add a zest to the competition, you can prepare stage costumes: wigs, glasses, capes - accessories with which the performers will really get used to the role. Believe me, the lack of vocal data will not be an obstacle to fun, especially if the songs are groovy and you can dance to them.
Step 3
Stock up on board games. Give your family 2-3 games to choose from: strategic, like "Monopoly" or "Colonizers", intellectual ("Scrabble") or communicative - "Association", "Crocodile", "Mafia", there are many variations of these games. You can also lay out the puzzles, and after the picture is folded, fasten it with tape and play it out in the form of an auction lot. Come up with the conditions of the drawing yourself. For example, whoever recites the longest verse will take the prize for himself.
Step 4
Along with the invitation to the celebration, give each relative a task: to make a small gift with your own hands. They can be exchanged at the table. On holidays, even if it is a birthday, small symbolic gifts can be given to all family members. Encourage the guests to say wishes when they are presented, meaningfully related to what is in their box.
Step 5
Look for old photo albums or family videos. Every year the family archive is replenished with new materials, which are more interesting to watch, the longer they are stored. And when the memories get bored, you can take your mind off the conversation and watch some funny movie.
Step 6
Finally, surprise your guests with something bright and memorable. For example, decorate the cake with sparklers and bring it in with the lights off, then have a candlelit tea party.
Step 7
After a hearty dessert, you always want to go outside and get some fresh air. Take the moment for the main highlight of your program - the launch of fireworks, or in extreme cases, a sky lantern, against the background of the night sky, it looks no less impressive. After such an evening, an armful of pleasant impressions until the next holiday is guaranteed.
