While the match is burning, the participant must tell his story of meeting the birthday boy as colorfully as possible. All guests are welcome to participate.

The matches are lit in turn: one goes out, the other lights up. When everyone is in a hurry, stuttering and stammering will become extremely fun. Or maybe someone will stir up something extra? Interesting to listen to and have fun.

"Flying gait"

The birthday boy is taken to one end of the hall, and the guests go to the other. Different music is played for each of the guests, to which they must demonstrate their gait.

Dancing participants first find out that their legs are numb. You can’t move numb parts of your body, but you need to continue dancing. And so from toe to head. The winner is the one whose dance was the most fiery no matter what.

Incentive prizes and the main prize for winning should be made unequal. For example, for participation - mugs, and for victory - a bottle of champagne.

"Find out by ear"

It's time to test the birthday boy on how well he knows his guests. The voices of relatives and friends can be recognized from thousands. Shall we try? The birthday boy is turned with his back to the guests.

Each guest calls the name of the hero of the day in turn. We need to find out whose voice this is. Since the participants will change their voices, it will be a lot of fun.

Now do you understand what kind of entertainment will make your birthday unforgettable?

You need to choose your favorite competitions in advance. Prepare all the necessary attributes, as well as prizes.

Decide who will conduct the competitions. It's best to choose yourself cheerful man from the whole company, who can provoke people and attract the attention of the public. The birthday will be great if everyone takes part in the games and competitions.

Don't forget to come to in a great mood, it will probably be passed on to everyone around you. Give people a smile and receive them in return. Sharing positive energy will set everyone on the right track.

Follow a few simple but useful tips:

  • Clearly formulate the conditions, explain the tasks to the participants, ask again if they understood you.
  • Write down all competitions on paper. This way you won’t forget their sequence, what they are, what gifts have been prepared for them, as well as the attributes. This will provide convenience to you personally.
  • Don't force people who don't want to participate to participate. Everyone may have their own reasons for this, perhaps the person is shy, or maybe his mood has not yet overtaken him high level when you want to rejoice yourself and share this joy, win and be involved in everything.
  • Decide in advance on the budget that will be used to purchase prizes. It is better to buy more of them rather than less. The possibility of leaving someone without a well-deserved prize should not be allowed.
  • Between each competition, do not forget to pay attention to the birthday boy. Liven up the evening with jokes, congratulations and dancing.
  • Alternate active competitions with mental ones, give participants time to rest. You can first hold a dance competition, and then a competition at the table.
  • Feel confident when doing it. If the presenter has a fear of speaking, then what can we say about the participants.
  • Support participants and ask watching guests to do the same. The unity of those invited will benefit everyone, especially if not everyone knows each other well.
  • If you have such an opportunity, then participate yourself. You set an example for all guests. Have fun to the fullest.
  • Praise and thank them for their participation.

No matter how old you are, it is your birthday that remains a favorite holiday at any age. Spend it having a blast, because it’s these bright moments that make our lives entertaining and beautiful.

Throw away rules like “The main thing is not victory, the main thing is participation,” go to the end, win, get prizes. They may not be too valuable, but they are very pleasant. It is with such small victories that big ones begin.

And in conclusion, we invite you to watch a test for real men called “Earth in the Porthole” as well as other fun birthday contests for adults on video:

When preparing to celebrate his birthday, inviting guests to the celebration, the birthday person needs to select funny table competitions in advance to make the holiday as bright and interesting as possible, and, most importantly, to avoid awkward, protracted pauses or unwanted conversations.

Competitions should be chosen exclusively for table competitions- as a rule, adults have absolutely no desire to get up from the table to participate in outdoor games - therefore an invitation to jump and run is unlikely to be greeted with enthusiasm by guests.

At the same time, the number of competitions should not exceed 5-6, otherwise even the funniest entertainment program will be unreasonably drawn out and will soon become boring.

Necessary props and organizational preparations

Most of the competitions below don't require a host, but some will require a host to be chosen through a public vote—which can be a fun contest in itself.
Or agree in advance that one of your loved ones will take on this role.

Props

For the competition program you need to prepare in advance:

  • tokens or medals;
  • red box;
  • forfeits with tasks;
  • blindfold and mittens (according to the number of guests);
  • cards with drawings in a blue or pink (depending on whose birthday) box:
    – scales for weighing trucks,
    - desert,
    - telescope,
    - alcohol mashine,
    - tank,
    - police car,
    - lemon Tree,
    - propeller.
  • two bags (boxes);
  • cards with questions;
  • answer cards;
  • long nose made of cardboard and elastic;
  • glass of water;
  • ring.

Red box

A “Red Box” with forfeits is being prepared separately for those who lost in competitions or dropped out of the game.
You can make the “Red Box” yourself, from colored paper and tape, or buy a ready-made one.

Forfeit tasks should be as funny as possible, for example:

  • sing a funny song with a serious look, in a false voice, without hitting a single note;
  • dance while sitting (with your arms, shoulders, eyes, head, etc. funny dance);
  • show a trick (and in such a way that it doesn’t work - it’s clear that there are no magicians among the guests);
  • recite a funny poem, ask an unusual riddle, tell a funny story, and so on.

Attention: The “red box” will remain in the middle of the table throughout entertainment program. As mentioned above, it is for the losing participants. Therefore, do not forget to “reward” the eliminated contestant with a phantom - and it doesn’t matter if the tasks are repeated - after all, everyone will perform them in their own way!

Competition No. 1 “Find the birthday boy”

Guests are blindfolded.
The leader moves everyone as he wants.

As a result, no one knows who is sitting where now, and who is nearby.

Each guest is given warm mittens. You need to find out by touch who is sitting next to you, touching with your hands in mittens only the head and face of your neighbor.
Firstly, it tickles and inevitably makes you laugh!
And secondly, it’s very interesting to try to guess a person through touch!

Each participant guesses who is on the left.
You can only try to guess once; the ultimate goal is to find the birthday person.

The headbands are removed only when the last participant has guessed or not guessed his neighbor, but if the birthday person is discovered, the game ends earlier.

Whoever fails to guess his neighbor draws a forfeit from the “Red Box” and completes a funny task.

Competition No. 2 “Wishes and funny gifts for the birthday boy”

This is a very funny competition for resourceful guests with a sense of humor.

First, the Presenter says the main congratulations.
It sounds like this: “Dear (our) birthday boy (ca)! We all sincerely love you and wish you good health, happiness and prosperity! May all your dreams come true! Now the rest of the guests will complement my wishes!”

Next, each participant must say the following phrase: , and then pull a picture out of the blue (or pink) box, show it to the birthday boy (or birthday girl), and explain why he gives this particular item to the hero of the occasion? If no explanation is found, then the contestant reads out the text on back side Pictures.

The next participant, before taking the picture out of the box, again repeats the beginning of the congratulatory phrase “And I know that this is exactly what you really need, that’s why I’m giving it!” and takes out his funny “gift” with an explanation of why the hero of the occasion really needs it!

So, for example, having pulled out a picture of a desert, the participant first says the main phrase with which everyone who draws pictures begins: “And I know that this is exactly what you really need, that’s why I’m giving it!”, and if you didn’t find your wish, read the phrase written on the picture on the back side: “Let them go there, into the distance, forever, holding hands, and let all your enemies and enemies never be able to return, having captured all your troubles!”

What should be shown and written in the pictures is indicated in the section “ Preliminary preparation", but let's repeat it again:

  1. The box contains pictures of unusual objects.
  2. On the reverse side, as a hint, wishes are written. First, the guest, looking at the picture pulled out of the box, tries to invent original wish to the birthday girl (birthday boy), then looks at the hint written on the back of the picture and adds to her congratulations.
  3. You can add other pictures, in any quantity - the more pictures and wishes, the more interesting the competition.

Minimum required images for the competition:

  • a picture of special scales for weighing loaded KamAZ trucks, on the reverse side it is written: “I wish you so much wealth that it is impossible to count, but only to weigh with such scales!”;
  • image of a telescope, on the back it says: “I wish that all dreams and their fulfillment were much closer than those stars in the sky that are visible through a telescope!”;
  • moonshine still, on the back there is a wish: “Let a considerable percentage of unbridled fun always play in your veins!”;
  • picture of a tank, wish: “So that you always have something to go to the store with!”
  • image of a police car with flashing lights: “So that when you drive, the people make way!”
  • tree with lemons growing, inscription: "So that you all year round“lemons” and not only fruits grew!”
  • a picture of a desert, on the back it says: “Let all your enemies go there, into the distance, forever, holding hands, and never be able to return, taking all your troubles with you!”
  • image of a propeller from the film “Kid and Carlson”, inscription: “May your life always be Karslson, who lives on the roof and brings many valuable gifts!”

There are two winners in the competition:
First: the one who came up with the most funny congratulations birthday boy (birthday girl);
Second: the one who read the inscription on the picture funniest of all.

You should prepare several identical containers with water in advance. We pour water or juice into each container and give the participants straws. The contestants' task is to empty their container as quickly as possible. You can make the task more difficult by requiring that you drink without using your hands. It will be even more interesting if the container is not on the table, but on a chair.

Writers

A great opportunity to test your imagination and writing skills, and have fun at the same time.

How to do it? We prepare a list of questions in advance. It should look something like this:

  • Who?
  • Where did you go?
  • For what?
  • What did he see there?
  • How did he react to this?
  • Who came next?
  • What happened next?
  • etc.

You can take our list and add a couple more questions to it.

The process itself:

  • hand out pieces of paper and pens to participants;
  • Everyone writes at the very top of the sheet the answer to the question “Who?” This can be either a real or a fictional character;
  • then the piece of paper is folded so that what is written is not visible and the participants exchange leaves with each other;
  • Next we write the answer to the question “Where did you go?” and continue in the same way until the questions run out;
  • finished literary works are handed over to the presenter and read aloud. Believe me, the stories will be very funny and with unexpected turns plot!

Sign up for a prize

We prepare one or several sheets, at the very top of which we write: “who will tell a fairy tale or poem,” “who will sing a song,” or something similar. You can also consider options such as “who will wash the dishes”, “who will help clear the table” and so on. We cover the inscription with a sheet with the word “Prize” and send this sheet around the table so that those who wish can sign up for the prize. What a surprise it will be when those who signed up see what they actually signed up for! But, of course, don’t leave them without a prize after they complete the task)

Like a birthday boy

A competition requiring participants to demonstrate their acting skills.

For this entertainment, we prepare pieces of paper in advance with inscriptions like “I can eat like the birthday boy,” “I can walk like the birthday boy,” “I can draw like the birthday boy,” “I can dance like the birthday boy.” This competition will be especially interesting at the birthday of a child 1-3 years old.

Participants take turns taking out pieces of paper and showing their acting skills. We reward the most talented actor with a prize.

Almost football

For this game you will need a spacious room, which is divided into two halves. We divide the guests into two equal teams. In the role soccer ball- a balloon, and the task of the “football players” is to throw the ball to the side of the opposing team. A certain time is allotted for the game, during which it is advisable to turn on rhythmic music.

Open the chest

Something like a mini-quest for guests. You can use any box or even a box as a chest. Mini-quest stages - any interesting riddles or questions about the birthday boy himself. As an option, divide the participants into teams and let each of them compete for the “treasure”. It can also be carried out in the form of an individual competition - whoever gives the most correct answers receives the key to the treasured treasure chest. Well, we fill the chest itself with pleasant little things - candies, chocolate bars, small toys. Even if the adult guests do not have a sweet tooth, then each of them probably has children at home who will be happy about such a treasure won by a parent.

Who will melt the ice?

Refreshing entertainment. It’s worth preparing a few ice cubes in advance for this. To make it more interesting for the participants, we freeze any small figures in cubes, which will become prizes. You can freeze, for example, small sweets, only by first wrapping them in several layers of packaging film so that they do not dissolve in water before they freeze)

The task of the participants, as you probably already guessed, is to melt the pieces of ice. But how to do this is up to you. You can dissolve them in your mouth, you can blow on them (in this case they will melt more slowly, but this will be safer for the participants’ throats). The winner is the one whose piece of ice melts before the others.

Associations

A game that can be played right at the table in a relaxed environment.

To begin, select a topic for which you will select associations. Let’s take the theme “Summer” as an example. Each participant writes on a piece of paper 10 words that he associates with summer. For example: beach, sea, heat, watermelon, strawberry, etc. When everyone has completed the task, we begin to read out the lists one by one. If someone finds the same items, they must be crossed off from all lists. The one on whose list there are the most uncrossed words wins. The winner rightfully receives the title of the person with the most innovative thinking)

A few more ideas can be gleaned from the video:

In conclusion, I would like to note that this is only a small part of the entertainment that can be provided at a little birthday party for adult guests. Any competition can be slightly modified, adjusted to the situation and the interests of the participants.

What games and competitions did you organize for guests at your child’s birthday party? Share in the comments!

Each of the guests takes turns reciting a poem, expressively, with intonation, in general, in every effort. After everything has been said, the presenter says that it is time to find out the winner. And the winner will be the person with the largest foot size. And interesting, and fun, and unexpected.

Dream bags

The leader has two bags. One of them is filled with notes that all the guests wrote at the beginning of the party. The notes indicate what they would like to give to the birthday boy if they could. Each note is signed. The second bag contains tokens with a variety of tasks - depending on the organizer. The presenter brings the first bag to the birthday boy, who spends a long time sorting through the leaves and finally takes out one of them and reads. The toastmaster authoritatively says: “This thing will definitely appear in your possession within a year if the author of the note completes the task.” And he invites the author to take the token out of the second bag, and then demonstrate how sincere the wish was.

Meet the elephant

All participating guests stand in a circle. Everyone takes turns naming one animal - the most interesting and most unusual in their opinion. For example, an elephant is large, with a long trunk and kind eyes. When all the guests name their animal, the host announces that it is time to introduce your neighbor and say a few words about him. The show goes clockwise. That is, the first guest, pointing to the second, says, meet, this is Yura (he doesn’t name the animal, but only describes it in the words he used to describe the elephant), Yura is big, with a long trunk and kind eyes, and so on. It will turn out very funny and interesting.

When and with whom

Each guest talks about meeting the birthday boy in just three words, for example, September, stadium, last century or winter, shop, coffee and so on. The birthday boy, after listening to the guests, must guess what the guests were talking about the moment they met him. If he guesses, all participants will receive prizes, and if not, the birthday boy will fulfill the wishes of the public.

Pour it over

Each participant in the competition will need 2 glasses and a straw. Everyone has one glass filled to the top with water. The task is to transfer liquid from one container to another using only a straw. The winner is the one who gets to the second glass as quickly as possible. more water.

Silent handshake

The center of attention is the birthday boy, who is blindfolded. The guests take turns approaching the hero of the day and congratulating him, silently shaking his hand, and he, in turn, must determine who is shaking his hand so sincerely or not so sincerely.

Water or vodka

Each participant is brought two glasses on a tray at a certain distance: one with water, the other with vodka. The guest must intuitively guess where the glass is and drink a glass of vodka to the health of the birthday boy. If a guest drinks a glass of water, the guest is fined - he fulfills the wish of the birthday boy.

The couple who doesn't give up

Guests are divided into pairs: woman-man. The participants of each pair stand with their backs to each other, their hands are tied. At the leader’s command, all pairs begin to squat; whoever gives up first is eliminated, and so the game continues until the last participant, or rather, until the last pair. The strongest couple who never gives up for anything gets a prize.

That's how I see it

Each guest receives a sheet of paper and a pencil, as well as a task: to draw the birthday person as he sees him. It could be a caricature or cartoon, a portrait or even a painting in the style of Van Gogh. All guests are given approximately 5-7 minutes to create. And then, by voting, they choose the most best picture, and its author is awarded a prize. And the guests are pleased to express themselves at the holiday, and the birthday boy himself will be pleased to receive unique paintings from the guests as a keepsake.

When a group of adults gathers around the table to celebrate someone's birthday, the feast usually turns into nostalgic memories of the past. There is nothing wrong with this, but turning such a happy day into empty chatter and filling stomachs with delicious food is not at all the format of the holiday that the birthday person wants. How to revive such a company? Of course, use the most fun competitions! Their selection is so large and varied that it is suitable for both relaxed young people and more mature birthday people.

Alcohol competitions

Transfusions

Birthday competitions for a group of adults are often complete without alcohol, for example, this one. A glass of alcohol (can be water) and an empty glass, as well as a straw for a cocktail, are placed on the table in front of each participant. Their task is to quickly pour liquid from one glass to another using a straw.

Fun toast tasks for guests

Not all people love and know how to give toasts, and many simply get off with the banal “I wish you health and happiness!” Therefore, very funny alcoholic competitions for adults’ birthdays are especially popular. To avoid these difficulties, and at the same time amuse the audience, you can invite guests to say congratulations in an unusual style. Each guest should be given a piece of paper with instructions on how he should make his toast. Here are some fun options available here:

  • Compose a congratulatory phrase, all words of which begin with the same letter, for example, “We wish you hot wishes, a cheerful life, burning women!”
  • Use some animal in your congratulations, for example, “Stay slim like a doe!”
  • Connect the congratulatory speech with food, for example, “May your life be sweet as honey!”
  • Make a toast in a foreign language.
  • Give a list of words from which the speaker himself must compose his toast.
  • Sing your congratulations.

Vulgar contests

Scrambled eggs

Anyone looking for funny moving competitions can choose one that will become the climax of a party for a well-warmed-up company. The most “out-of-touch” men will agree to participate in it. A transparent plastic bag with a couple of raw chicken eggs so that they dangle at the level of the knees. The first couple is called to the ring. The “fighters”, with their legs spread wide and slightly crouched, begin to swing their bags of eggs with the help of swaying their hips, trying to hit their opponent’s eggs with them. The one whose eggs cannot stand it and break, leaves the battlefield in disgrace, to which the next couple is invited.

The winners who retained both or at least one egg then meet each other to determine the final winner, who after the end of the competition can safely be called “The Man with the Strongest Eggs” and awarded a special prize. Although this game is traditionally played among men, it can also be performed by women (after all, it is the hen, not the rooster, who lays the eggs).

Women things

The vulgar birthday contests for adults don’t end there. The next one is only for men who will feel a little like women for a while. At the same time, the task they are given is not at all difficult, every woman easily does it every day - they need to put on a bra, and as quickly as possible. This trick is not easy for all men, so the gathered guests will have fun watching the men try.

When all the participants in the competition are finally able to put the “cups” on themselves, identifying the winner, the next task will be to remove them, again, competing against the clock. Surely there will be one among the participants who, puffing and blushing, will say that he is used to taking off bras from girls, and not putting them on himself.

Fun replacement

To conduct this competition you need to choose a girl and two guys. The girl is laid on the sofa, and small edible objects (nuts, pieces of cookies, etc.) are laid out on her body. After this, one of the guys is blindfolded and offered to eat everything that is on the girl, without hands and blindfolded. At the command of the leader, the guy begins sophisticated attempts, but the whole point is that instead of the girl, another guy unnoticed appears on the sofa. The guy, increasingly falling into lust, only begins to feel something is wrong when wild laughter begins around him.


But remember, such obscene birthday contests are only acceptable for adults with a good sense of humor. Therefore, include this competition in your list only if you are confident that the company will react adequately to it.

Funny intimate contests

Beautiful maiden

Among the party guests, the host needs to select several ladies who came in skirts. Having found them, he lays a rug on the floor and blindfolds the ladies. Their task is to walk over the mat with their feet wide apart so as not to touch it. After all the girls have completed this task, the presenter quickly lies face up over the mat and asks the ladies to remove their blindfolds. The winner of the competition is the lady who blushes more than others when she sees the picture that opens. How do you like this funny intimate birthday contest?

Default

Recruit 3-4 couples to participate in the competition. Girls, accompanied by a fiery melody, must “make deposits” - hide small denomination bills in the clothes of their boyfriends. When all the “contributions” have been made, the young people are swapped, and the presenter suddenly shouts “Default! Take your deposits!” To a different tune, the girls must have time to find and remove the “deposits” within a certain time. It would be even more interesting to offer to take away other people’s “deposits”.

Laughing competitions and entertainment

For some reason, more often respectable people believe that entertaining competitions are more suitable for children, however, this is not so. Even respectable adult uncles and aunts can be involved in laughing birthday contests. You just need to relax, trust the presenter, and get not only pleasure, but also a good mood!

Compromising evidence

Adults should be involved in such birthday competitions and entertainment married couples. Men, secretly from their wives, write the names of any 10 animals under numbers on a piece of paper. The women in their circle do the same. When the game begins, the leader begins the phrase and asks the wives to continue it with the word that appears under the first number in the list, and on next questions words are added strictly according to the list. It turns out that the husband:

  • Beautiful as...
  • Affectionate as...
  • Sociable as...
  • Independent as...
  • Authoritative as...
  • Strong as...
  • Fast as...
  • Character similar to...
  • Externally similar to...
  • Etc.

Then the turn to characterize the wives goes to the husbands. And then it turns out that the wife:

  • With relatives, like...
  • In transport, how...
  • In the store, like...
  • With colleagues, like...
  • With friends, like...
  • In a cafe or restaurant, like…
  • On vacation, like...
  • With children, how...
  • The spa is like...
  • Etc.

Draw an elephant

Guests are divided into two teams, which are given a piece of paper. Next, team members take turns and blindfolded draw elements of the elephant: the first - the body, the second - the head, the third - the trunk, the fourth - the legs, etc. The winner is the team whose drawing is a little more reminiscent of this animal.

Substitution

Birthday competitions do not have to be crowded, for example, 3 people participate. The host sits them down at the table and places a plate in front of each: one with a piece of banana, another with an apple, the third with a piece of cake. After that, he blindfolds them and explains that they must, on command, eat their treat as quickly as possible, without using their hands. But after all participants are blindfolded, their desserts are replaced with something else, for example, instead of a banana, a cucumber, instead of an apple, a lemon, and instead of a cake, a piece of sausage with mustard. The winner will be the participant who, despite the unexpected taste of his treat, eats it first.

Milk the cow

Do you want contests with balloons? They can be extremely fun, especially if they are not ordinary balloons, but medical gloves. Participants should be divided into pairs and each pair should be given rubber glove, with pinpricks on each finger. Water is poured into the gloves. One player holds the glove, and the second tries to “milk” it. The one who milks the most is the winner. This competition looks all the more fun the fewer people involved who know what the milking process looks like.


Potato

Cool moving competitions are very diverse. In this case, pairs of players can compete, with a potato tied to their belts on a long cord, which should almost touch the floor. Two empty cigarette packs are placed on the floor at the start line. The opponents’ task is to push their pack of potatoes swinging between their legs to the finish line faster than their opponent.

Cool harmless competitions for everyone

25 compliments

All guests of the holiday should be divided into 2 teams and each should be given a blank sheet of paper. In 2.5 minutes, each team must write 25 compliments on their sheet. After this, the presenter selects the sheets and compares the inscriptions on them, crossing out identical compliments. Team that wrote more original congratulations, is declared the winner.

Connection

There are also competitions for the birthday boy, in which he takes part along with the invited guests, and here he gets the main role. The birthday boy is seated in the center of the room on a chair or at the head of the table, so that from there he can see everyone gathered. Only the host stands behind him and from there shows the guests cards with some facts (“wears a suit,” “gave birth to twins,” “traveled abroad,” “rides a bicycle,” etc.) concerning someone of those present. The one to whom this fact applies must rise from his seat, and there may be several such people. The birthday boy’s task is to understand what fact connects these people.

find me

The presenter should distribute pieces of paper to everyone present at the birthday party, on which they must give a description of their appearance. After this, all the leaves are collected in a box or bag. The presenter takes the first piece of paper out of the box, reads it out, and everyone tries to guess who this description fits. Each contest participant has only one attempt for each description. The one who can identify the most guests from their descriptions wins the competition.

Magic ball

This modern birthday competition is a bit like the American habit of wrapping small gifts in many large boxes. Well, we can transfer this tradition as a joke to our holiday. To do this, we will make a “magic” ball.


First you need to prepare: find short riddles and write them on scraps of paper. Then you need to take a small souvenir and wrap it in foil. Attach a piece of paper with a riddle to the foil with tape. Then wrap the gift again with another layer of foil and attach another riddle to it again. The result of such layers should be at least 6-7. In this case, the most difficult riddle should be in the depths, and the simplest one on the outside.

Next, you need to cast lots to see who will be the first to begin unwrapping the resulting magic ball. Having removed the first layer of foil, the first participant gets to the first riddle, which he must solve in 5 seconds. If he fails, then everyone else comes to his aid, and the one who does it first gets the right to remove the next layer of foil and guess the second riddle. In the end, whoever solves the last riddle wins this prize.

Guess it

Such competitions for adults are quite acceptable at children's day birth. Guests should be divided into two teams, which should be seated different sides table. Determine a leader for each team. The first team must think of a word on a topic related to the birthday celebration, and its leader must secretly tell this word to the leader of the opposing team. He should try to portray this word to his team with facial expressions and gestures. Players can ask him questions, but the host can only nod yes or no.

You can guess the word within 3 minutes, and if it remains unguessed, the team is punished with a phantom, for example, by singing a song in honor of the birthday person.

How to use?

An object is placed on the table in front of the competition participants. Next, they must take turns to come up with real action that can be accomplished with this item. The player who could not come up with the next application is eliminated from the competition. In the end, there is only one winner.

Conductor


The leading “conductor” distributes cards with the names of cities to all players - “tickets” with destinations. He then starts asking if the player knows what country his city is in. If he answers correctly, then the conductor punches his ticket. The winner is the “traveler” who collected the most composted tickets.

Music competitions

Ditty competition

It's always fun unusual competitions to the music. For this singing competition, you need to prepare prizes and a list of interesting words that should be inserted into the ditties you are composing. From the guests present, you need to put together several teams of 3-5 people. Then the presenter says a word that each team must insert into their ditty. About 3-5 minutes are allocated for creativity. The team that does not have time to compose anything is eliminated from the competition, and the rest perform their ditties to the music. Next comes the turn of a new word and new ditties.

The team that manages to compose the most ditties wins. If several teams completed the task equally well, then the winner is determined by the volume of applause.

Who thinks about what?

If you decide not only to dance, but also to take a funny musical break, then you should first ask the host to prepare cool music competitions. He will select in advance fragments from songs that can somehow characterize appearance or the thoughts of guests, and will also find a spectacular hat. When all the guests are sitting at the table, the host announces that he has acquired a magic hat that can read minds. After that, he puts it on the guest’s head and at the same time an excerpt of the song is played.
