Maslenitsa is a bright Slavic holiday that people love to celebrate with delicious pancakes. Walking is not complete without dancing, competitions and games. The entertainment program on this day is very rich, so people celebrate Maslenitsa on a grand scale. An important attribute in all competitions and games is a broom, almost every new competition is accompanied by it. Below are the most exciting and fun games and contests that will give the party a little excitement and intrigue.

Competition "Good hostess"
Several girls are selected for this competition. The task is very simple: they have to peel one potato, sew on one button and dress the doll. However, they are given only two minutes to complete all these tasks. It is in such a short time that the girls must quickly do everything. The winner will be the one that can complete all three points or much more than her rivals.
Competition "Damn it"
This competition is directly related to Shrovetide, because it is necessary to use such words as:
pancake;
winter;
Spring;
Sun;
joy.
Several children are involved. They need to compose a short poem in rhyme, where it is necessary to use all these five words. If the child has difficulties, parents or friends can help him. However, the winner of the competition will be the one whose poem turns out to be the most beautiful and foldable. It must certainly be taken into account how much adults and friends helped, and whether they helped at all.

Competition "Teschin pancakes"
A very exciting competition in which adults and children can take part at the same time. Several players are selected. Plates with the same number of pancakes are placed in front of them. In just one minute, you need to eat as much of this delicacy as possible. The winner will be the one with not a single pancake left in the plate or much less than the opponents.

Competition "Swing"
The "Swing" competition is a very fun game, and it is better for boys to compete in it. Several participants are selected for the game. For their number, it is necessary to prepare in advance baskets and tennis balls in equal quantities. The basket is tied in the form of a swing. Music begins to play and the boys try to hit the difficult “nest” one by one tennis ball, one hit is equal to one point. The winner will be the one who manages to score the most points.

Competition "Running in bags"
Many people's favorite game in bags will come in handy at a fun holiday. All participants are divided into two teams, each of which chooses a song for itself. At the start, the first participant in the bag begins to jump to a certain mark, and in the same way return back. The game continues to be played by the second, then the third, fourth and other team members. During the game, you need to sing the selected song loudly. The team that completes the task faster and performs the song much better will take a well-deserved prize.

Game with chairs
This game is well known to many. Several chairs are used for the game, and players are taken one less. The music turns on, and everyone starts to run around the chairs together, and as soon as it stops, the players must take their places on these chairs. The one who has no place left to sit is out of the game along with one chair. And so it continues until the very end, until the winner is determined. For children, this is very funny and fun, and on Maslenitsa it will be much more exciting.
Adults will also like this game with chairs. The essence of the competition does not change, but men must immediately sit on the chairs. Women, who are one more person, run together while the music is playing, and as soon as it stops, they sit on the lap of a loved one or friend. The culmination of the game is the most reckless, when there is only one chair left with a man, around which two women run. At this intriguing moment, it is worth looking into the eyes of this happy man, who will be in great anticipation. The winner will be the pair in which the woman turned out to be more agile than all her rivals.

Game "Geese and geese"
An old fun game in which at least 5 people take part. Everyone stands in a circle facing the center and holding hands. The host walks behind them and alternately touches the back of each participant with his hand. To some he says "goose" and to others "goose". If the first word was spoken to the player, then this means that he stands still and does not move. However, if the second, then this means that he must run around all the players and take his former place. The essence of the game is that the leader also runs in a circle, and if he runs faster than the second participant, then he transfers his title to him. Now he is the leader. Thus, the game continues.

Broom throw game
A very funny game for adults and children. Several people are involved. The objective of the game is to throw the broom at a distance. The participant who throws the attribute the farthest will be the winner of the Broom Throwing game.

Game "Brook"
The game "Brook" was the traditional and favorite game of our great-grandfathers and great-grandmothers. Many people know the meaning of this competition. Girls and boys, young boys and girls take part in the game. Players stand in two rows and hold hands high above their heads. Thus, a living corridor is obtained. One participant who did not get a pair passes under clasped hands and chooses a pair for himself. Usually they are someone who is not indifferent and very nice. After that, the new pair gets up last, and the one who was taken away - the first. Therefore, the same principle continues the whole game. It will be very fun and exciting if there are many participants in the game, and the living corridor is long.

Game "Surprise"
Another fun game called "Surprise". It is a pleasure to take part in it, because the positive will be just the sea. Its very name speaks of something unexpected, but pleasant. The game will require one small box and as many participants as possible. Everyone stands or sits in a circle and picks up this box. The music turns on, and the attribute begins to be quickly transferred to each other. On whom the music stops, he takes off some thing and puts it in this box. This is how the rest of the game continues. When all the participants are practically naked, the rules of the game change a little. Again, a box is passed to the music, and on whom the music stops, he, without looking, takes something from the attribute. The thing that fell into his hands, he must put on himself. It will be a pleasant game for a friendly company that will be able to cheer everyone up a lot.

Game "Sun"
One of the interesting games in Shrovetide for young children is the game "Sun". Participants are divided into two teams and stand in a row. For the competition, you will need two A3 sheets on which a circle will be drawn. You will also need several felt-tip pens for each team. At the start, each of the participants from two teams quickly run up to a sheet of paper and draw one ray at a time. The second, third and all other participants do the same. The winner will be the team in which all participants have time to finish drawing one ray. Such a game instills in even the youngest players the spirit of competition, which causes great intrigue and excitement in them.

The game "Running on a broomstick"
This game will require skittles, which should be carefully arranged in one row. Each participant must sit on a broom and run a snake around the pins as quickly as possible. The winner is the one who copes the fastest and knocks down the least set obstacles.

The game "Iron Potato"
All participants are again divided into two teams and each is given a spoon. Empty bowls are placed in front of the team, and a pot of potatoes is placed nearby. At the start, each participant with a spoon must quickly pick up potatoes and put them in a bowl. The winner will be the team that transfers the most potatoes to their bowl.

Snow Fort game
It often happens that a lot of snow falls on Maslenitsa. Such a miracle should be used and competed, especially if the snow is sticky. There are two teams, each with one adult captain. A little time is given for the construction of a snow fortress and charges. Then the real attack between rivals begins. The game is accompanied by great intrigue and excitement. The winner will be the team that will destroy the enemy fortress faster.

Shrovetide games for children

Game 1. Frying pan.

On the floor (on the ground, on the snow) draw a circle. This is a frying pan. All players (both adults and children) join hands

and jump on one foot, trying to push each other into a circle. Whoever got into the circle, he "baked" in the pan. The task of the players is not to get into it.

Game 2

Put a buffoon hat on your child(ren). You can sew bells to an ordinary bright hat. Ask the buffoons to show how bears walk, how geese walk, how cockerels jump, how goats butt heads, how the sun rolls across the sky, and so on. At the end of the game, after completing the task, the buffoons dance to cheerful music along with everyone.

Game 3

Game for boys. Two are playing. They put hats on their heads. The hat should sit freely on the head. The task is to make the opponent's hat fall from his head, but not to drop his hat.

Game 4. The seller of happiness.

Dress up as a seller of happiness. You can pick up a toy bird or monkey or a music box (imitating the artists at the fair). Put notes in the box - the “buyers” will pull them out. Shout out like at a fair: “Happiness is for sale! Happiness is for sale! When the child acting as the customer pulls out the note, read it out. For example: “Your happiness is on Kudykina Gora”, “You will find a treasure and buy two sweets”, “Your happiness is in your house”, etc.

Game 5

A potty squats in front. Behind him is a "seller". He offers his goods, shouts out: “To whom are the pots? Who wants pots? The buyer (one player - an adult) looks at the pots, conducts a dialogue - asks questions: “Is the pot good?” He chooses the pot he likes and bargains about the price (you can sell the pot for 10 claps, and for 5 jumps, etc.). If the price does not suit, then the buyer goes on to choose a pot. If the price suits, then the buyer and seller beat hands and immediately run in a circle in the direction where they were facing. Whoever comes running first to his place is the owner of the pot. If you are late, you become a buyer. So the game continues. Then the sellers and pots switch roles.

Game 6

Take a long stick (you can take a gymnastic stick or rail from a hardware store). Tie multi-colored satin ribbons of the same length to its end. Call the children and adults: “Who wants to run on our carousel with ribbons?”. Everyone takes one end of the tape, pulls it tight and the carousel spins. You can say words in rhythm with movements:

"Barely - barely - barely - barely
The carousels started spinning.
And then, then, then
Everyone run, run, run!
(speed up the pace)
Let's run, let's run
Run, run!
You can change direction after these words.
Hush, hush, don't rush
Carousel os-ta-but-vi-te.
One-two, one-two (pause)
That's the end of the game."

Game 7

Game for all ages. The driver stands in the center. Everyone sings a song:

"At Malania, at the old woman's
Lived in a small hut
Seven daughters, seven sons
All without eyebrows (close eyebrows with palms).

With those ears, those noses,
With such a mustache, with such a head,
With such a beard...
They didn't eat anything, they sat all day,
They looked at her (at him),
They did it like this ... (the host makes a movement, and everyone repeats it) "

Whoever repeated the movement best of all becomes Malanya in the next game.

Game 8

One dudar is chosen. Determine before the game the place where you will need to run away from the dudar.

All players join hands, walk in a circle and speak rhythmically or sing:

“Dudar, dudar, dudar, old, old, old man.
him under the deck. His under crude. It's under rotten.
Dudar, dudar, what hurts?

Dudar answers by naming one part of the body. For example: "My elbow hurts." This means that each player needs to grab the elbow of the right neighbor. You get a vicious circle.

"Dudar, dudar, what hurts?" Dudar replies: "The knee hurts" (or names another part of the body). The players take each other's knees and, without releasing their hands (holding them on the knees of their neighbors), go in a circle and sing further.

The game can go on for a long time with naming different parts of the body: ear hurts, heel hurts, back hurts, shoulder hurts, cheek hurts). But in the end, the dudar says: “Nothing hurts! I'm catching you!" and catch up with the players. Players must have time to escape from the dudar to the agreed place. Who did not have time - he becomes a dudar. A very fun game that creates a festive mood. Try it - you'll love it!

Game 9

All players sit next to each other on a bench or on chairs placed in a row. This will be the gingerbread board. There should be enough space around the bench or chairs (so that you can run around them). The driver walks along the "gingerbread board", all players say or sing:

Gingerbread board, from a whole hemp,
From a whole hemp, drop the boy.

At the words “Drop the boy,” the driver quickly slaps his hand on the knee of one of the players. The player must quickly run around the "gingerbread board" and sit in his place. At this time, the leader runs around the "gingerbread board" in the other direction. If the driver managed to take the player’s place, then now the player who was slapped on the knee will drive. If not, then the same driver will drive again.

Game 10

The leader (adult) is selected. You can play with children 5-6 years and older. Small children can also participate, but they will have to be helped to answer questions (answer with them).

The host says:

“The lady came to you, golik, and brought a broom.
Told me not to laugh and not to smile,
"Yes" and "no" do not say,
Black and white do not call.
Are you going to the ball?"

It is impossible to answer any questions of the leader by saying the words “yes”, “no”. For example, you can answer like this: “I changed my mind” (but you cannot answer “no”). This game teaches children to control their behavior and their speech. If the player made a mistake, then he gives the phantom to the leader and performs a funny task.

Game 11

The game is suitable for the smallest children.

We join hands and say together three times: "Knead, knead the dough." To these words, slowly and rhythmically stomping, we approach each other (so that the circle formed by our hands becomes very small).

Then we begin to “inflate” the bubble, that is, expand our circle, saying:

"Inflate, bubble,
Blow up, big one
stay like this
Don't crash!
Wow! Burst!” (we let go of our hands and squat, exhaling for a long time): shhhhh.

Game 12

Game for the little ones.

We hold hands, walk and say rhythmically:

"As in our house
The oven is burned out
pancakes baked,
The concocted loaf.
A kind of wooow! (get into a tight circle)
A kind of niiiiizenkiy! (squat down)
Kind of wide-eyed! (we make a wide circle without releasing our hands)
Kind of tall! (raise your hands high, stand on tiptoe).

Game 13

Game for the little ones.

Usually on Maslenitsa they rode horses. And we also ride. Let's put the child on our knees and "let's go."

"Bumps, bumps,
By small bushes
On a young horse
Uphill - uh, uh, uh (raise and lower your knees).
And from the hill - boouuuh! “(We stretch our legs forward and roll the child off them like from a hill).

All kids love this game.

Game 14

With older children, you can play horseback riding in a different way.

Take a beautiful braid or ribbon, tie bells on it. Get a harness. The child gets into a "harness", the rest of the participants take the ends of the braid or ribbon with their hands and say:

“Knock-knock, tra-ta-ta, open the gate!
Open the gate! We're leaving the yard! But!"

At this word, the horse begins to move, ringing bells until they say “whoa”.

Game 15

Everyone sits on chairs. One driver is chosen.

Each player is assigned their own word. It can be called by the driver or the players can assign a word to each other. For example, the first player - the word "broom", the second - the word "boot", the third - the word "button", the fourth - "bucket".

The driver approaches the player and starts asking questions. You need to answer them very quickly and using “your” word. You can not laugh and even smile (this is the most difficult thing in the game).

For example. The driver approaches the first player and says:

“Whoever makes a mistake will fall! Whoever laughs will have a bad time!”

After that he asks:

- Who are you?
- Broom.
— What did you eat today?
- Broom.
- And what do you have? (points to knee)
- Broom.
_ And what's that? (points to two legs).
- Brooms.

And so on until the driver runs out of questions and he moves on to the next player.

If the player answering the questions makes a mistake or breaks down and laughs, then he pays a forfeit. Fantas are played out after the game. This game is not only fun, but also very useful for the development of children's speech.

Merry Maslenitsa to you! Let be carnival games with children bring laughter and joy to your family!

About the role of mobile games a lot has already been said in the system of training and education. And in our preschool educational institution No. 9, mobile organized games are a means of comprehensive development of preschool children, are used everywhere and every day. But I want to pay special attention folk outdoor games. In the upbringing of preschool children, they are an integral part. Participating in them, children get acquainted with the originality of life, language, customs of people of different nationalities. IN folk Games always have verbal content. They are mainly presented in the form of round dance folklore fun and practical jokes. Folk games are very entertaining, contain old little-used words, children really like it. They always create a joyful high spirits, which is a condition for the interest of children, emotional experiences in the game mobilize all forces to achieve the goal.

The unique flavor of the games is given by counting rhymes, draws, beginnings, nursery rhymes.

The traditional Russian holiday, which is celebrated annually by both children and adults in our kindergarten, is PANCAKE WEEK. It's especially fun After all, children are very fond of ritual holidays.: skiing, various competitions, dressing up, games.

Pancake week- one of the longest holidays. The celebration lasts for a whole week, during which children make crafts, eat pancakes, compete, participate in a themed matinee

Friday, last working day Maslenitsa in kindergarten we celebrated on a grand scale. Dress the kids in folk costumes and started the celebration in the music hall. And I didn’t have to go far for games - our ancestors, the Slavs, had already invented them once, and they still delight children.

Russian folk mobile game"Brook"

This game was known and loved by our great-grandmothers and great-grandfathers, and it has come down to us almost unchanged. There is no need to be strong, agile or fast. This game is of a different kind - emotional, it creates a mood, cheerful and cheerful.

The rules are simple. The players stand one after another in pairs, usually a boy and a girl, a boy and a girl, join hands and hold them high above their heads. From clasped hands, a long corridor is obtained. The player who did not get a pair goes to "origin" stream and, passing under clasped hands, looking for a mate.

Holding hands, the new pair makes their way to the end of the corridor, and the one whose pair was broken goes to the beginning "brook". And passing under clasped hands, he takes away with him the one he likes. So "streamlet" moves - the more participants, the more fun the game, especially fun to play with music.

To not go out!

To all the blizzards

They flew away together

For the birds to sing

The grasses are green

Chenille skies

And the ears are ripe!

So that all adversity

Failures, tears -

Let them burn, burn

Flying towards the sun!

Hello, goodbye

Come that year!

Spring is at the door
