5 years - the first anniversary in the life of your baby has come! The child already feels old enough to celebrate this holiday not only with relatives, but also to invite friends to visit him.

The organization of such an event at home requires some preparations:

The holiday should be started by creating an atmosphere of intrigue and unity of the whole company of little guests. The game is good for this. "New name".

It is necessary to cut out cards in advance from bright paper in the form of the birthday boy's favorite heroes and hide them in one of the rooms. After that, invite all the children to the secret room and give them some time to look for the cards. As soon as each participant has found a card for himself, we proceed to the second part of this game. The leader in the circle throws the ball, accompanied by the question: "What is your name?" You need to tell not your real name, but the fairytale hero depicted on the card of each owner. For the rest of the evening, each child turns into this hero and should only be addressed by a new name.

Options for games and contests for children

"Magic Cylinder"

All children line up in a circle. The host shows them the hat, accompanying them with the words: “This hat is not easy, it is magical. Whoever puts it on his head starts spinning with a whirligig! And when the music stops, the one who is wearing this hat disappears! " Then, by his own example, he demonstrates to children the principle of play, i.e. puts a cylinder on his head, turns around himself once and then passes it on to the next participant. Then the competition continues with fiery music and the children quickly pass the hat as a relay baton according to the described rules. As soon as the music stops, the player who is wearing the hat is eliminated. The last one who remains in the hat is awarded a prize.

"Adults and kids"

The presenter announces the rules of the game to the children: when to pronounce the word " adults"They should stand on their toes and reach up with their hands, and if they hear the word" toddlers", You have to sit down. Of course, the task of the leader is to confuse the guys and for this he first says the words “ adults!"Deliberately loud, and" toddlers"- in a barely audible whisper. Then the presenter diametrically changes the intonation and volume. In addition, the presenter can mislead children by resorting to visual-sound deception, i.e. saying “ adults"- the presenter squats, and saying" toddlers"- stands on tiptoes. The one who is wrong is out of the game.

"Ice and candy"

This competition is recommended to be held during the warm season. First, you must freeze the M&S candies in small pieces of ice. After some particularly active competition, in order to give the children time to relax and cool down, the presenter invites each child to take one piece of ice and melt it as quickly as possible. Whoever gets a candy from a piece of ice first gets a package of M & S sweets.

"Race cars".

For this competition, you will need two children's toy cars, ropes and pencils. Attach one end of the string to the pencil and the other to the typewriter. Children should wind the rope around the pencil as quickly as possible without lifting the wheels off the floor.

If girls predominate in the company of children, then it is better to replace the typewriter with toy carriages.

"Free hands"

Take big leaf paper (A1 format), colored markers and place the children around the entire perimeter of the sheet. Each child should circle their palms and decorate them at their discretion. Upon completion of the joint creativity of the children, the presenter asks all children to sign this picture. In the center of the canvas, the date of the celebration is written, accompanied by the words: "In 15 years, all the creators of this masterpiece should gather for the next anniversary of the birthday man and circle their palms again."

"Gourmet Competition"

Each child in turn is blindfolded and asked to open his mouth. Then put a piece of fruit or berry in your mouth. The assortment should be varied - chocolate, bananas, marmalade, strawberries, oranges and more. The main condition is that the pieces should be small and put them in the child's mouth very carefully so that the child does not get scared and does not choke. The kid should taste what it is. Find out in advance the dessert preferences of children and be sure to take into account the wishes of their parents. All those who guessed it correctly receive the same fruit or candy as a prize, which they guessed.

"Mini-championship on launching balloons"

You will need a few whistle balloons. All children line up along the wall, inflate balloons as much as possible (if one of the kids does not succeed, then you can involve your parents in the balloon inflation).

You can compete in this competition until the parents get tired of the polyphonic squeaking of balls.

"Mysterious balls"

Parents need to write riddles on small pieces of paper, roll them into tubes and put them inside balloons... First, the children need to destroy the air bombs (the same balls in which we put riddles). You can cheer up children in this process "We are not afraid of these broads, we can easily neutralize them with some priests and solve all the riddles in order to move on!" After it was possible to extract the notes from the balls, the presenter begins to read riddles to the children, and they guess together.

"Bee in a flower meadow"

For this competition, mom needs to sew some floral hats. For example, from cotton wool - dandelion; from blue satin - a bell; from white chintz - chamomile; from red satin - a rose. The greatest work will be required to make a bee hat. The best thing for this is a deep knitted hat, sew on the wings and antennae on top. The hat must necessarily cover the eyes of the child. The game is built on the principle of blind man's buff. First, they put on a bee hat on the birthday man, unwind him and let him go in search of flowers. When a bee catches a flower, it must guess what kind of flower it is by its headdress. Then the bee and the caught flower change their caps. And again the bee drives.

"Tell my light to the mirror, but show the whole truth ..."

A presenter is selected among the children, whose task in this competition is to show various intricate figures and grimaces. The rest of the children must accurately copy his movements. It is important that every child tries himself in the role of "Mirror". This competition develops acting skills in children and helps to fight the shyness of the child.

"If it is not …"

This game develops associative thinking in children. An object is selected and passed in a circle with the words: "If this is not a ball, then this is the sun." The next child continues the baton with a toy and adds to the previously said version one more assumption: "If this is not a ball and not the sun, then this is an orange!" In this way, the transfer of the toy continues until it has completed the entire circle. The children list what the object is like. A participant who could not find the next word is eliminated.

"Matryoshka with gifts for the whole company"

Take a few boxes a few days before the celebration different sizes and paint them with the children. Then put mementos for all the kids in the smallest box. Put the small box in the box slightly bigger size and so on, like a nesting doll, put all the boxes in the largest of them. On the appointed day of the celebration, seat all the children in a circle and, to the music, begin to hand over a huge matryoshka gift box. When the music stops, the child who at that moment has the box in his hands opens it and finds a smaller box there. The music sounds again and the children pass the next box in a circle until the music dies down. Thus, the game continues until the children get to the smallest gift box for the whole company.

It is best to end the celebration with a traditional loaf!
