colorful ball
The teacher reads the lines of a poem by V. Suslov.
colorful ball
Jumping along the path
Along the path, along the path
From birch to aspen,
From the aspen turn -
Directly to Ira
To the garden!
The players throw a balloon (ball) in a circle. The one who received the ball beats it off the floor, after which everyone scatters, and the driver tries to “smack” the fleeing participants in the game with the ball. The player who hit the ball (ball) again invites everyone into the circle and throws the ball to any player. The ball is passed around again.
Rain
The teacher invites the players to sit freely in the classroom. Then he explains the conditions of the game, after which he recites poems by I. Tokmakova.
Rain, rain, drop
water saber,
I cut a puddle, I cut a puddle,
Cut, cut, did not cut.
And tired, and stopped!
All perform arbitrary movements. With the last word “stopped”, all movements stop, the participants in the game freeze. The leader, passing by them, notices the one who has moved. He is out of the game.
Again, the host and a group of guys who have dropped out of the game recite a poem. It sounds loud, perky, but not very fast. Movements can be very diverse, but standing still. At the end of the game, the host notes those who performed the most beautiful or complex movements. It is possible to reward the “most persistent” participant in the game.
merry ax
This game can be played both outdoors and indoors. The guys stand in a circle, hands are held behind their backs. The host, passing behind the players, hides a small object from any player - a “small hatchet”. Then all together (or the presenter) pronounce the text of the poem by I. Demyanov. The one from the players who had the last words (but preferably not the one who has the object hidden) goes to look for the ax.
Yegor took an ax in the corner,
With an ax went into the yard,
Egor began to repair the fence,
Yegor lost the ax.
That's what he's still looking for.
Look for an ax too!
triangular cap
The game develops mindfulness and coordination of movements. The players are randomly placed in a circle in the classroom. The host explains the conditions of the game, then says the words:
My triangular hat
My triangular cap.
And if the cap is triangular,
That is not my hat.
Repeating the words a second time, the players on the word "triangular" show a triangle of fingers. Further, in addition to showing the triangle, the players should lightly hit themselves in the chest on the word “my”. Then, showing the triangle to themselves, the players should touch the head on the word “cap”. In the future, all the players together with the leader pronounce the words and perform all 3 actions. Words are repeated faster and faster with each repetition. Those who go astray leave the game and only repeat the words. The one who doesn't fall off wins.
Be careful!
The game stimulates attention, promotes learning, quick and accurate response to sound signals.
The guys stand in a group, freely, but at arm's length from each other. Marching music (or any rhythmic) sounds. Children march to the music, it is possible to perform dance movements.
At the same time, the head of the game gives commands arbitrarily at different intervals. Children must implement the movements in accordance with the command.
For example:
"Bunnies!" Children jump, imitating the movements of a hare.
"Horses!" Children kick the floor.
"Crayfish!" The children back up.
"Birds!" Children run with their arms outstretched (imitation of the flight of birds).
"Heron!" They stand on one leg.
"Frog!" They squat and squat.
"Dogs!" Children bend their arms (imitation of the movement when “the dog serves”) and bark.
"Chickens!" Children walk, "search for grains" on the floor and say "Ko-ko-ko."
"Cows!" Children stand on their hands and feet and say "Moo-moo!"
The game can last 20-25 minutes. At the end of the game, the teacher notes the most attentive.
Onlookers
The game contributes to the development of volitional (voluntary) attention.
Children walk in a circle one after another, holding hands. Perhaps musical accompaniment in the pace of the march. At the signal of the leader, the players stop, make 4 claps, turn 180 ° and start moving in the other direction. The direction changes after each signal. If the child is confused and made a mistake, he leaves the game.
That's the pose!
The game can be used to develop observation and memory, it will contribute to the development of children's looseness, their communication skills.
At the request of the children, five players are selected from the group. One of them is the driver, the rest are spectators. Children show the driver "their poses." He walks around the children and memorizes their positions. Then the children go into the hall and sit on chairs, and the leader repeats the poses in the order in which he saw them.
"Spectators" shout whether the pose is repeated correctly or not. If wrong, one of the "spectators" (optional) goes "on stage" and repeats the pose.
The game is repeated 2-3 times until everyone is sure that the poses are shown correctly.
Mysterious proverbs
And this game contributes to the development of speech of younger schoolchildren, logical thinking, introduces them to the origins of oral folk art.
The teacher gives simple proverbs. The guys should explain what it means, what is the meaning of it, why it arose in the everyday life of people.
The work of the master is afraid.
Every master in his own way.
Jack of all trades.
The tailor will spoil - the iron will make amends.

Living - non-living
The facilitator names living and non-living objects mixed up, and the children answer in chorus only “living”, and they are silent to “non-living”. The kids who make the fewest mistakes win.
line
Children line up in one line in the direction of the leader's hand. When he speaks in all directions, everyone scatters. And having heard the slogan: “The guys have a strict order, tra-ta-ta, tra-ta-ta, they know all their places,” they run and line up in a new direction. The latter is considered the loser.
find the color
Children stand in a circle and, at the command of the host, look for objects of the named color in order to touch them. The loser is the one who touches the right thing last. He is out of the game.
Predator

sun bunnies
This activity is suitable for sunny weather. You should take a small mirror, put sunbeams on the walls and ceiling and watch them with your baby.
Runaways are jumping
Sunny Bunnies.
We call them - they don't go.

Jump, jump in the corners.
They were there and they are not there.
Where are the bunnies? Gone.
Did you find them anywhere?
(A. Brodsky)
Listen
The leader whistles to give the blindfolded players a signal and change direction. Focusing on the sounds, you need to find an adult.
Items
Children bring some small items with them and put them in one place. Next, one of the players is chosen, who becomes his back to the objects. The leader, pointing to one of the objects, asks: "What should the one who owns this object do?". All players see this item, but one has their back to it and does not know whose item the host is pointing to. This player's job is to assign "penalties", a task that the owner of the item must complete in order to redeem the item.
through the hoop
The player holds a racket with a table tennis ball in one hand, and a gymnastic hoop in the other. The player's task is to pass the hoop through himself from top to bottom, then from bottom to top, without dropping the ball. They play in pairs. The winner is the one who completed the task faster.
Arithmetic cubes
The game requires 3 dice. Everyone throws them 3 times. If among the dropped numbers they are the same, they are added up (for example, 3, 5 and 3 fell out, playing the sum 3 + 3 = 6, and if all different numbers fall out, let's say 5, 2 and 3 - they are not taken into account). If it happens that after the next throw all 3 numbers turn out to be the same (for example, 4,4 and 4), then the sum of these numbers also doubles. The winner is the one who, as a result of three throws, will have the largest sum of numbers.
Clothespins
Players need to find and collect all the clothespins in the room. Clothespins can be different: plastic, wooden, colored, transparent, old, new. The main principle: the more the better. Players are divided into pairs. The couple is given a bandage with clothespins. The task is very simple. One child is blindfolded. Clothespins are attached to the partner's clothes. Moreover, clothespins are hung around, and not the child himself. Where to attach them - they decide. The player has no right to interfere in the process. Next comes the hour for a blindfolded player to act. His task is to find and remove all clothespins from the player as quickly as possible.
Funny pictures
Game for the development of visual memory. Invite the child to carefully consider 10 pictures, each of which depicts a familiar object. Then ask your child to take turns naming the items he remembers. The number of items that the child remembers is important. Show the child the pictures that he did not name. Please try again in 10 minutes. Offer to remember all the pictures in an hour.
Get the town

Squatting, he must, without moving from his place and without touching the floor with his hands, raise the town (puck, cube, bump, etc.) located behind the leg. The winner is the one who succeeds more than three times out of three attempts.
Find a bunny
You will need a clean handkerchief to play. You should take it by 2 adjacent ends, look behind it from both sides and ask: "Where is our bunny? Where did he run?" After that, you need to tie the ends of the scarf into knots so that they look like rabbit ears, and say: "Here is the bunny! And where is his tail?" At the remaining end of the scarf, you need to tie a small knot-tail: "Here is the tail! Let's stroke it."
gold fish
The child is a goldfish who invites the fisherman to grant his wish. You come up with something supernatural, and he must find a good reason why he cannot fulfill your desire. Then you can switch roles.
Broken fax
Participants sit in a row one after another. The last participant draws a picture on the back of the person sitting in front of him. The player who received the message must repeat it as accurately as possible on the back of the person sitting in front. The first player in a row, having received a message, draws it on paper. After that, the drawings of the first and last players are compared and it is revealed on which participants in the game the fax failed. Before the next round, all players must switch places.
Geometric shapes, letters and small words, various symbols (dollar sign, euro sign, ampersand, copyright) can be used as drawings.
It is desirable to start the game with simple geometric pictures. In order for the game to be more dynamic, you can prepare drawings for transmission in advance, secretly from the participants in the game.
You can conduct a team version of the game - all participants are divided into teams of 5-8 people and simultaneously transfer the drawing. The winning team is the team whose final drawing is closest to the original.
musical chairs
After the music stops, sit down on a chair as quickly as possible. The one who did it last or who did not have enough chair loses.
Loaches
The players stand in a circle and raise their hands up, forming a "gate". The host announces two nearby players as vines. One loach stands in a circle and is called "running away", the other - behind the circle - "catching up". The running distance is small - you need to run around the circle once and stand in your place, but you will have to run not in a straight line, but along a winding line, slipping into the “gates” from one side or the other.
At the signal of the leader, both loaches take off. If he won, that is, the escaping one ran earlier to his place, then a loach is appointed instead of him, and the catching up remains the same. If the chasing one has taunted the escaping one, then the chasing one chooses a replacement for himself, and the escaping loach remains old.
You can play the game with a division into two teams, counting all those standing on the first and second numbers, then the runner and catching up the loaches are selected from different teams, and the success of one or the other brings one point to his team.
Dwarfs - Giants
Children stand waist-deep in water. The leader gives a signal by shouting the word: "Dwarfs!". Everyone gets into the water. Behind the signal: "Giants!" - all players jump up. Whoever makes a mistake is out of the game. Whoever is left wins.

The teacher puts rows of geometric shapes on the typesetting canvas. In each row, one figure differs in color (shape, size). Students must find the "extra" figure and explain why they decided so. For a correct answer, the student receives a token.
Ball over the line
Players of two teams enter the water and line up at opposite sides of the pool facing the middle. The side is for them in the game the line of the house that they defend. The leader throws the ball in the middle between the teams. The players swim towards him and, having taken possession of the ball, begin to throw it among themselves, trying not to give it to the opponent. The task is. To approach the opponent's house and touch the side of the pool with the ball. On an open reservoir, the field for the game is limited by floats, paths from floats. The game lasts 10 minutes. The team that manages to touch the opponent's home with the ball the most times wins.
Hurry up to pick up
A participant with a volleyball in his hands becomes a circle with a diameter of 1 meter. Behind the player are 8 tennis (rubber) balls.
On a signal, the participant throws the ball up, and while he is in the air, he tries to pick up as many balls as possible and, without leaving the circle, catch the ball. The participant who managed to pick up more balls wins.

This game is best played in the forest, especially if everyone is cold. They warm up very quickly.
Players (10-30 people) stand in a circle and hold hands. One pair of people runs around the circle. Suddenly, one of them strikes the clasped hands of someone from the circle. The couple that was hit on the hands should jump out of the circle and run around it, the same is done by the couple that hit, only they run in the opposite direction. Those two who run around the circle faster take an empty place. Others remain running around the circle. History repeats itself.
falling stick
Standing in a circle, several players are calculated in numerical order. The participant of the game at number 1 takes a gymnastic stick and goes to the middle of the circle. Putting the stick vertically and covering it with his palm from above, he loudly calls a number, for example 3, and he runs back to his place. The one who is named runs forward, trying to catch the falling stick. If he manages to do this, then the participant in the game at number 1 again takes the stick and, placing it vertically, calls a number, etc. If the stick fell to the ground, then the one who failed to pick it up becomes the leader. The game lasts 5 - 7 minutes. The winner is the one who was less than others in the role of leader.
The last word
The host calls different nouns. Suddenly he interrupts, goes up to one of the children and asks to repeat the last word. If the child was inattentive and did not remember it, he receives a penalty point. The one with the fewest penalty points wins.
Interesting games for the development of children. Games are aimed at developing: communication skills, emancipation, motor skills of hands, memory, mindfulness of thinking. Games for kindergarten and school.
Fight for the ball
For the game choose a flat area. Draw circles with a diameter of about 1 meter. These circles should be located at a distance of 2 - 3 meters from each other.
Choose 3 - 4 drivers who stand between the circles. All other players take places in circles and begin to throw the ball to each other. The task of the drivers is to catch this ball. If they succeed, they shout: "Change!" Players must change places. Drivers try to occupy the vacated circles. The one who is left without a circle becomes the driver next time. The winner is the one who has never been a driver for the entire time of the game.
A few mandatory rules:
1. Players cannot leave circles, and drivers cannot enter circles.
2. The ball can be passed in a variety of ways.

hot-cold
With the help of this game, it is good to give a child a hidden surprise / gift, because the child’s interest in the gift increases in the process of searching (just like a delicious smell from the kitchen increases appetite before dinner).
A surprise / gift is hidden from the child in advance. He must find it at the prompts of the presenter:
Completely frozen - it means that the surprise is very far away and the child is looking in the wrong direction. Cold - it means that the child is looking in the wrong place.
Again winter-winter has come - it means that the child is going in the wrong direction, after the right direction.
Already warmer means that the child has turned in the right direction
Warmer means that the child continues to walk / search in the right direction
Hot - the child is already close to a surprise
It's hot - baby close, close to surprise
Quite a fire! - the child is a few centimeters from his gift
The child is looking for a hidden surprise, according to the facilitator's tips described above.
The child enjoys the found gift. It is obvious that the gift found is the reward for the child.
Notes. If the child is not one, but there are several of them, then all the children are engaged in the search at once. For this occasion, the gift must be appropriate!

snow duel
Snow duel is almost a real duel, but on snowballs. The game well develops the coordination of movements and the reaction of playing children.
The game follows the rules of the duel, but with some changes. Namely:
The duel takes place not on pistols, but on snowballs, you can dodge hits and no one kills anyone. The maximum that you can get is a bruise under the eye and a slight concussion.
Two players stand 10 meters apart. Each duelist draws a 1 meter circle around him - within this circle he can dodge the opponent's snowball.
After the prearranged signal, the first duelist throws a snowball at the opponent. After that, the second duelist throws a snowball at the first.
If one duelist hit and the other missed, then the hit one is considered to have won the duel.
If both miss or hit, the duel is replayed.
A duelist who is being "shooted" can dodge a snowball within the circle outlined around him.
If there are more players, then the new player takes the place of the loser and everything starts all over again.
Notes. To reduce the chance of injury, aim for the torso rather than the head. Also, do not make icy or very strong snowballs.

Marine figures
For this game, you need to choose one driver. The rest of the players are at some distance from him. The driver says: “The sea is worried - one, The sea is worried - two, The sea is worried - three, Sea figure, freeze on the spot!” After these words, all participants in the game should freeze in place, depicting some kind of motionless marine figure, for example, a fish, crab, seahorse or other inhabitants of the seas and oceans. The driver approaches a player and taunts him. The player must show how the figure depicted by him moves. For example, a fish swims, a crab crawls, a frog jumps. The rest of the participants must guess who the player is portraying.
Next time, the driver can choose the participant in the game who depicted the most mysterious marine figure, that is, one that no one could guess. Or, on the contrary, you can choose the leader of the one who depicted the simplest figure that everyone immediately recognized.

chains
Participants are divided into two equal teams. The players of each team line up in a chain, join hands and disperse so that the distance between the chains is approximately 7-8 meters. Teams agree in advance who will start the game.
The team that starts the game (the first one), without disengaging its hands, goes towards the opponents (the second team) and shouts: “The chains, the chains are forged, Who are you not loosened by?”
After that, she returns to her seat. Opponents, after conferring, call the name of one of the players of the first team. This player runs and runs with all his might into the chain of the second team, trying to break it.
If the chain can be broken, then the player who did this takes the one to his right to his team. In this case, the first team retains the right to break the chain.
If he fails to break the chain, he gets into the opponent's chain. The right to break the chain passes to the second team.
The game continues until one of the teams has only one player left. Or the team with the most players after a certain amount of time wins.
There is a game similar to this - Ali Baba. Its essence is the same as in "Chains", only the players shout different words. One of the teams starts the game with the words: "Ali Baba!" The second team answers in chorus: “About what, servant?” The first team speaks again, naming the name of one of the players of the opposing team, for example: “Fifth, tenth, Sasha here for us!”

Lapta
This is an old and beloved Russian game. It needs a large playground, a ball and a lapta (bat or board). Two lines are drawn on the site. Behind one of them is a “house”, behind the other is a “city”, and between them is a “field”.
The players are divided into two teams. The teams disperse: one goes to the “field”, and the other goes beyond the “city” line. One player from the “city” team hits the ball with a bast shoe, runs to the “house” and runs back to his place.
The selected players of the "field" try to intercept the ball and knock them down on the runner. If the player of the "city" understands that he will not have time to run to the "house" without being tagged, he can stop, and then run to the "city" together with the next player of his team. If the player managed to run across to the “home” and return to the “city” without being tagged, the team gets a point. If the ball is caught by a field player on the fly, or if a city player is tagged while running, the city team receives a penalty point.
The game takes place in two stages of 20 minutes each. At the end of each period, the teams change places.
Then the points are counted, and the winner is determined by their number.

live target
You need a flat area and pre-prepared snowballs. In addition, a sufficient number of players is required so that they can be divided into two teams. The essence of the game is to cross the area under the enemy's snowball fire and dodge the blows at the same time.
On the snow, a large rectangle 20 meters long is drawn on the site. One team, which has to run, stands at the start line (in front of the transverse side of the rectangle), and the other, which will fire, along the site.
The first player of the “defectors” starts off and rushes along the site to its opposite border. At this time, the players of the second team must throw snowballs at him, trying to hit him. The running player can wag, dodge, and dodge, but move mostly in a straight line. If he runs unscathed, his team gets a point. And if he gets hit with a snowball, he is out of the game.
As soon as the first player runs, the second one takes off, and so on. When the whole team has covered the distance, points are counted, and the runners become attackers.
The team that scores the most points wins.

Cossack robbers
The participants of the game should be divided into two teams: the team of "robbers" and the team of "Cossacks". The "Cossacks" find a place for the captured "robbers" - a "dungeon", while the "robbers" hide in the meantime.
Then the "Cossacks" begin to search, and the "robber" must be caught up and touched. The "robber" who was taken prisoner has no right to run away. All prisoners are in the "dungeon", they are guarded by the "Cossack". "Robbers" can release a comrade from the "dungeon", but for this they must touch the "prisoner". And if he does not have time to run away immediately, the “Cossack” watchman can catch him again. The "Cossack" can also catch the "robber" who came to the rescue.
The game is considered over when all the "robbers" are in the "dungeon". Then the game can be started again, and the participants can switch roles.

Race
The participants of the game stand in a circle. Selected by lot or with the help of a counting rhyme, the driver enters the circle. The players pass the ball to each other so that the driver does not get it. That player, through whose fault the ball is caught, becomes the next driver.
This game has some rules.
1. You can not keep the ball in your hands for a long time.
2. You can pass the ball in different ways: throw it through the air, roll it on the ground, hit it off the ground. You can agree in advance and choose only one way to pass the ball.
3. Players are allowed to make fake moves, false passes, throws, turns, etc.
4. Any player, including the driver, can intercept the ball that has flown out of the circle.
If desired, the game can be somewhat complicated. For example, to agree that during the game everyone moves in a circle to the right or left, or all those who missed the ball join the leader and also try to take possession of the ball.
