When a child turns seven years old, parents have to reconsider their experience of holding holidays at home. After all, their son or daughter is no longer a baby, but a person who has realized himself as an individual. It is necessary to approach him this way: with recognition of his right to his own opinion, taking into account the complex processes that change his inner world.
Now you can’t hold a bright, memorable children’s party without good organization. Children 6 - 8 years old will get bored if there are no interesting games and exciting competitions with their own participation.
When creating a program, make sure that it is not only fun, but also useful. After all, the company of children under sensitive adult guidance is an excellent opportunity to show their abilities, practice in different types of activities, and learn to build relationships with their peers.
What radically new happens to a seven-year-old person that is worth paying attention to when preparing for competitions? Here are the main important points.
- Rapid physical development. At this age, competitions that require greater endurance and tension are possible.
- Active socialization. Children of primary school age really like to feel like they are part of a team.
- Sense of personal responsibility. The child can be entrusted with his own area where he acts independently.
- The appearance of a best friend. Children begin to value friendship and sometimes trust their friends more than their parents.
Ideas for competitions at home
Competition "Walk under the bridge"
A very simple competition game that is a good way to start an entertainment program. Adults hold the bar by the two ends; children must take turns walking under it. At each stage, the level decreases, so that first the tallest child walks “under the bridge” at full height, then he has to bend down and finally crawl. The one who lasts the longest wins.
Competition "Guess it"
In fact, this competition is a version of the well-known adult “crocodile”, or game of charades. One participant must show this or that creature, the rest must guess it. Children 7-8 years old it is difficult to depict abstract concepts, so the conditions competition can be limited, for example, by specifying only animals, fairy tale or cartoon characters. If none of the guests have participated in such a game before, tell them that the most convenient thing is to imitate not their appearance, but their actions: how a bear walks, a cat washes itself, a chicken pecks, etc.
Competition script:
- Prepare cards with images in advance: take ready-made ones from children's lotto sets, draw or stick ones cut out from magazines.
- Put them in a box.
- The first “actor” chooses a card at random and tries to portray his character without words so that others can guess him.
- The one who guessed takes his place.
Advice. To begin with, it is better to prepare cards with pictures rather than written names of animals. The picture will tell children what features of appearance they can play on.
For experienced players, you can remove restrictions from the conditions and set any objects or phenomena.
Competition "Balloon Fight"
This is a sports team game that is best played in the yard, on the playground or in a clearing in the park.
You will need:
- Prepare the music:
laptop with recordings of funny songs - music center
- or just radio
Competition script:
- Divide the court into two equal parts (for example, by pulling a rope or net), and the guests into teams. Give each team five inflated balloons.
- The task is to transfer them to the opponent’s territory. At the same time, you have to hit the balls coming from the other side.
- Each round lasts as long as the song plays. The musical accompaniment really enlivens the game and lifts the mood. The one on whose side has fewer balls wins.
- Agree on the number of rounds in advance: it should be odd.
Competition "Collect the word"
An excellent intellectual game for first-graders. Gives you the opportunity to test your knowledge of letters and vocabulary, train your memory and observation skills.
Prepare several envelopes of letter cards in advance. The set should include the letters of one long but well-known word for children (January, dining room, computer, dinosaur).
The competition can be either team or individual. Each participant or team is given an envelope with letters. The task is to assemble a word from them. The one who does it correctly and fastest wins.
Competition "Collect a picture"
Another “at the table” competition. Allows you to take a break from outdoor games, develops spatial thinking and the ability to foresee the result of your actions.
Prepare several colorful pictures (this could be postcards with flowers, illustrations for fairy tales, landscape drawings) and cut them into many shaped parts. Give them to teams or individual players. The task is to assemble the whole picture from these fragments.
Competition "Who can eat jelly the fastest"
This is a comic competition that can be used for a snack when the holiday is in full swing and the children have managed to get a little hungry.
Another convenient place in the program is when guests move on to dessert.
For the competition you need glasses or shallow cups with fruit jelly according to the number of participants.
Each of them gets their own portion of jelly and an ice cream stick. The task is to eat it without additional equipment. The winner receives a prize, and the rest of the participants receive spoons to finish the jelly.
Competition "Chest with a surprise"
This game also has an element of competition, but the main thing in it is the opportunity to please every guest. Even if the child has not won any other competition, he will receive his prize here.
You will need:
- A box for a future chest.
- Give it a beautiful appearance: cover it with colored paper, decorate it with drawings or appliqué.
- Make a hole in the top for a child's hand.
Place gifts in the box according to the number of guests plus one. Select them taking into account the age of the children: it can be a toy, jewelry for girls, a notebook, a pen, a set of pencils or markers, a keychain, candy, an apple or an orange.
Quests
Children 7-8 years old are already ready for long multi-stage competitions if the conditions are simple and clearly stated. Therefore, you can prepare a simple quest of three or four moves for them.
Divide guests into teams. Each of them must be supervised by an adult: he does not help complete the tasks, but checks whether the children understand their conditions.
At each stage, the team receives a note describing the task. After completing it, participants will find out where the next instruction note is located. The latter must indicate the location where the prize is located. Of course, it must be collective: for example, a cake that the winning team will share with the losing team.
- Prepare both individual and team competitions.
- When forming teams, take into account the wishes of the children. But try to keep them approximately equal in strength. If there are younger children among the guests, distribute them evenly across teams.
- Alternate between different types of competitions. After active competitions, you need to conduct an intellectual game - and vice versa.
- Make sure every child wins and receives a prize at least once. Everyone should feel strong, beautiful and smart.
If you look at the children’s games, you can see that most children do not know how to organize their leisure time. Their street walk turns into mindless wandering or destructive behavior (sadistic experiments on animals, fights). This is due to the fact that children do not know street games; they often communicate on social networks, but when they meet, they cannot organize their leisure time. We offer a variety of games and competitions for children 10 years old.
Games at school
You can even play the following games in the hall during school recess.
- “Bunny, bunny, what time is it?” The leader (hare) stands with his back to the players. Everyone takes turns asking the time and adding: “I’m in a hurry for my birthday!” The hare calls any time. The player measures his steps (an hour is a long step, a minute is a simple step, a second is the length of the foot). For example, three hours five minutes three seconds means three large and five normal steps, three foot lengths (one and a half steps). Whoever reaches the hare first and touches him takes his place. Everything starts all over again. This event will diversify children's time study competitions and reinforce terms.
- “Ring, ring, go out onto the porch.” Players stand or sit in a row with their arms extended forward (palms tightly closed into a boat). The presenter takes a “ring” (any small detail), which he must quietly place from his “boat” into the player’s palm. He may pretend to give the ring to the player after hesitating. Then the presenter stands in the middle and asks the participant with the ring to come out. The players' task is to catch the one who has the ring. You can't hold hands. If the participant with the ring manages to jump out of the row without being caught, then he becomes the leader. If he is caught, then the game continues with the old leader.
- Sea battle. Participants draw a field (10x10 cells, marked on the left with numbers, on top with letters) with one-, two-, three-, and four-decker ships. The player names the number and letter of the cell. Getting into the ship, continues the game; Having missed, he passes the move to the opponent. At the same time, he clarifies whether he “killed” or “wounded”.
Road games
Such active thematic games will allow you to quickly consolidate the acquired knowledge and diversify any school scenarios for children's competitions. They are especially relevant at extracurricular events dedicated to traffic rules.
Popular games
Classics of the genre
On the street during school breaks, children prefer a variety of classics.
- Regular digital. Draw hopscotch up to ten. The player’s task is to throw a pebble into the cell with a number, “jump” the classics and pick up the chip on the way back. It is prohibited to step outside the lines. As soon as the first level is completed (from one to ten), the game begins with the next number (two, three, four, etc.). A player who enters the line or does not hit the desired cell with a pebble passes the turn to another. The participant who completes the most levels wins. To hit the cells with the numbers “nine” and “ten” with a pebble, you are allowed to step on the first square. And you can jump on them with a running start, also jumping onto the first number. Sports competitions for primary school children are not complete without classics, which are sewn from cellophane or fabric.
- Round digital. Draw a large circle, mark a small circle in it, from which you draw radii. Write numbers. The essence of the game is similar to the previous one. Jump from one number to another until you stand in the center. The difference is in the jumps. In the first version, you jump alternately on one leg and then on the other. In the same game you jump on two adjacent numbers. Then, when moving to another number, the left leg should be in the air. That is, the right one goes from the first number to two, the left one is in the air, and then drops to three. The essence of the game is that you need to jump quickly and not step over the lines. Such warm-up games will add laughter and fun to intellectual competitions for children 10 years old. Numbers can be replaced with thematic images.
- Verbal. Any version of the classics with a “roof” is drawn. Desires are written in each column (house, dacha, car, child, husband, trip, etc.), and “fire” is written on the roof. The player stands with his back to the line and throws a pebble, looks at what kind of wealth fell out, jumps and picks up the chip on the way back. You can't go beyond the lines of the classics. If you fall into a “fire,” then all your wealth is burned. The richest one wins. After the first game, children can adjust the rules themselves, modifying them to suit their capabilities.
Games with jump rope
Popular games include rubber bands and jump ropes. Both participants put the elastic band on their feet. The third player jumps over it. Having completed all the steps, it moves to the next level. To do this, raise the elastic band from the ankle ten centimeters higher. This happens until the player gets tangled in the rubber band, makes a mistake, or stumbles. Then the turn passes to another participant.
- Rose, birch. The leader stands in the center of the circle, holds one edge of the rope, begins to twist it and say: “Rose, birch, lily, poppy, porridge, chamomile, scarlet flower” until one player trips. The one on which the word was stopped leaves the game. The titles are initially distributed among the participants. The one who remains wins. He becomes the leader. These games are useful to “dilute” calm, intellectual or “sedentary” competitions at the birthday party of a 10-year-old child.
- Salochki. Two players spin the rope, the third participant must jump without touching it. Teachers use it in competitions, making the task more difficult. For example, while jumping, read a poem, sing or recite the multiplication table.
- Trait. Two people hold the rope at the participant's chest level. The player must pass without touching anything. Each time the rope is lowered lower and lower. The player who touches the line is eliminated.
These children's competitions and games are suitable for home and school. They can be modified, added, remade to suit your subject or event.

- Steeplechase. They clamp the ball with their knees or ankles and walk to the finish line, completing more tasks along the way.
- Puncture. A ball is tied to the players' feet. You need to jump on your opponent's ball and burst it. The winner is the one with the whole ball.
Unusual competitions
There are a huge variety of children's games. You don't need expensive attributes for this. For example, a twistor can be drawn on the grass, a bowling alley can be made from plastic bottles and a ball, cards can be drawn on cardboard. The main thing is to think over the theme of the event, and also to alternate between intellectual, calm and active games. Then children’s participation in competitions will be more active.
Teenagers also love to participate in games that are shown on TV (“Field of Miracles”, “Guess the Melody”, “Finest Hour”, “One Hundred to One”). Questions are prepared according to the training course with additional information on the subject. When selecting games, you need to take into account the interests of teenagers. You can ask leaders to help organize the event.
Children are restless and at events such as birthdays, New Years, kindergarten graduations and other holidays, they need to be occupied with interesting competitions. When holding competitions, you should remember that moving and active types should be combined with calm ones so that children have time to relax. If competitions are accompanied by the awarding of small prizes, it will be even more interesting for children to play.

At the same time, the captain takes off the second hoop and passes it to his neighbor, who, having completed the task, passes the hoop on. Thus, each player, having passed the hoop to his neighbor, immediately receives a new hoop. The last player in the line puts all the hoops on himself. The team whose players complete the task faster receives a winning point. The team whose players win twice wins.
Quick threes
Players stand in a circle in threes, one after the other. The first numbers of each three join hands and form an inner circle. The second and third numbers, holding hands, form a large outer circle. At the signal, the guys standing in the inner circle run to the right with side steps, and those standing in the outer circle run to the left. At the second signal, the players release their hands and stand in their threes. Each time the circles move in a different direction. The three players who come together faster receive a winning point. The game lasts 4 - 5 minutes. The trio whose players score the most points wins.
Prohibited movement
The players and the leader stand in a circle. The leader takes a step forward to be more noticeable. If there are few players, then you can line them up and stand in front of them. The leader invites the children to perform all the movements after him, with the exception of those prohibited, which were previously established by him. For example, it is prohibited to perform the “hands on the belt” movement. The leader begins to make different movements to the music, and all the players repeat them. Unexpectedly, the leader performs a prohibited movement. The player repeating it takes a step forward and then continues to play.
Courtesy check
This competition is tricky and is only held once. Before the start of the boys' competition, a girl passes in front of them and, as if by accident, drops her handkerchief. The boy who guessed to pick up the scarf and politely return it to the girl wins. After this it is announced that this was the first competition. Option: if the competition is between two teams, then the point is awarded to the one from which the most polite boy was.
Good fairy tale
The basis is a fairy tale with a sad ending (for example, the Snow Maiden, the Little Mermaid, etc.). And the children are given the task of thinking about how this fairy tale can be remade, using characters from other fairy tales, so that it ends happily. The winner is the team that plays out the fairy tale in the form of a mini-play in the most funny and cheerful way.
Train
The game participants are divided into two equal groups. The players of each group hold on to each other and form one chain with their arms bent at the elbows. Stronger and more dexterous participants - “groovy” ones - become ahead of the chain. Standing opposite each other, the “clockwork” also takes each other’s arms bent at the elbows and each pulls in their own direction, trying to either break the opponent’s chain or pull it over the intended line. Rule: start pulling exactly at the signal.
Competition on the plot of folk tales
Children are divided into two teams. The presenter says the first words from the title of folk tales; participants must say the entire title. The team that gives the most correct answers wins. 1. Ivan Tsarevich and the gray ... (wolf) 2. Sister Alyonushka and brother ... (Ivan) 3. Finist - Clear ... (falcon) 4. Princess - ... (Toad) 5. Geese - ... (Swans) 6. According to the pike ... (command) 7. Frost ... (Ivanovich) 8. Snow White and seven ... (dwarves) 9. Horse - ... (Humpbacked Little Humpback)
Speak without mistakes
Whoever pronounces these proverbs better will win: Sasha walked along the highway and sucked on a dryer. Karl stole corals from Clara, and Clara stole a clarinet from Karl. The ships tacked and tacked, but did not tack. He reported, but didn’t report enough, but when he started to report more, he reported.
Night travel
The presenter says that the driver will have to drive at night without lighting, so the player is blindfolded. But first, the driver is introduced to a freeway made from sports pins. Handing the steering wheel to the driver, the presenter offers to practice and drive so that not a single post is knocked down. The player is then blindfolded and brought to the steering wheel. The presenter gives a command - a hint where to turn to the driver, warns about danger. When the path has been completed, the leader unties the driver's eyes. Then the next participants in the game “go”. The one who knocks down the pins the least wins.
Sharp shooters
There is a target mounted on the wall. You can use small balls or darts. Each player has three tries. After the game, the host rewards the winners and encourages the losers.
Keep your balance
With their arms extended to the sides, the players, like tightrope walkers, walk along the very edge of the carpet. The last one to leave the race wins.
Horror film
The conditions are as follows: there are five eggs in the cassette. One of them is raw, the presenter warns. And the rest are boiled. You need to break an egg on your forehead. Whoever comes across something raw is the bravest one. (But in general, the eggs are all boiled, and the prize is simply awarded to the last participant - he deliberately took the risk of becoming everyone's laughing stock.)
Game "Merry Orchestra"
An unlimited number of people participate in the game. A conductor is selected, the remaining participants are divided into balalaika players, harmonica players, trumpeters, violinists, etc., depending on the number of participants. At a signal from the conductor, who points to a group of musicians, they begin to “play” to the tune of any famous song: balalaika players - “Trem, shake”, violinists - “tili-tili”, trumpeters - “turu-ru”, accordion players - “tra- la-la." The difficulty of the task is that the pace of change of musicians is constantly increasing, the conductor points first to one group, then to the other, and if the conductor waves both hands, then the musicians must “play” all together. You can make the task more difficult: if the conductor waves his hand strongly, then the musicians must “play” loudly, and if he waves his hand a little, then the musicians “play” quietly.
Each participant receives a raw egg. The essence of the competition is who can throw their egg higher and catch it without breaking it. The most prudent, prudent, dexterous, attentive participant who throws a raw egg above the rest and then manages to catch it will receive a prize.
In our area
All participants sit on squats, a song called “In our area” is played, and the guests play the role of gopniks who sit on squats in their area. Which of the guys can sit through the entire song and do it the most artistically, wins and receives a prize.
Deflate the balloon
Each participant receives a large balloon. Only it will need to be deflated rather than inflated. He unclenched his fingers, took in some air, squeezed his fingers, released the air, and then again. At the command “start”, all participants begin to deflate their balloons. And whoever blows it away faster will win.
Wine or tomato juice
It's very simple. Each participant receives a bunch of grapes (identical) or one tomato. At the “start” command, each participant begins to squeeze the maximum out of the resulting product. Whoever can get the most “wine” or “tomato juice” in a minute will become the winner and receive a prize, for example, a bottle of wine. By the way, for the funniest company, the following can be a condition of the competition: crush the juice with your feet or beard.
By centimeters
For this competition you will need a tape measure and prepared certificates (medals), into which the vocations and titles of the guests will then be written. The host names the category, and guests who feel that they can take a prize in this category take part, and the measurements decide everything. Then everyone will be able to receive their own certificate, for example, “Outstanding Breasts”, “Elven Ears”, “Legs from the Ears”, “Wasp Waist”, “Musical Fingers”, “Miniature Palms”, “Almost Twine”, “Navel-Mariana Trench” ", "Julia Roberts Smile" and so on.
Protection from lovers
For this competition you will need any (purchased or old) pantaloons, onto which you need to sew many, many buttons, at least 10, and make the same number of loops. Each participant transforms into a lover or mistress, receives such pantaloons with buttons fastened, and on the command “start” the guys must unbutton them as quickly as possible. The point is to quickly unfasten the buttons and rid the object of your adoration of his pantaloons, and then, while you unbutton, he will stop wanting. But, all the same, whoever does it faster will win.
Guess who I am
At the very beginning of the party, each guest is glued to a piece of paper on which the name of any character (cartoons, films, history, etc.) is written. You cannot pronounce the name itself, but you need to behave with a specific person the way you would behave when meeting this hero. For example, if a guest has “Gagarin” written on his back, you can go up to him and say: “Well, let’s go?” and offer him a drink or just wish him a good flight, dear. If, for example, this is Cheburashka, you can go up to him and ask: “Would you like an orange? Or are they already making you sick?” and so on. In general, there are no limits to the imagination and improvisation of guests. The first three to guess which heroes they are will receive prizes. The rest must also answer who they are, otherwise they will have to fulfill the wishes of the public.
Lick it
Each participant receives an envelope and the same number of stamps. At the “start” command, guests lick and glue stamps onto the envelope. Whoever sticks the most stamps on the envelope in 15-20 seconds (at the discretion of the presenter) will be the winner.
Selfie with a cat for good luck
A group of guys receive a task: find a cat faster than others and take a selfie with it. For a more relaxed and cheerful group, you can complicate the task: find a black cat and take a photo with it. The participant who can find the cat the fastest (anywhere: with neighbors, on the street) and take a selfie with it will win.
Cheerful macaques
Each guest is a cheerful macaque, and each macaque has a plate of grapes (the same number of grapes in each plate). At the command “start”, guests imitate macaques and eat grapes from a plate with their feet without any help from hands or outsiders. Whoever proves himself to be the most artistic and funniest and the first to eat grapes will receive the main prize.
