Dance games for children 3-4 years old
round dance
For the youngest children, starting from three years old and even earlier, a round dance is perfect. Music for a round dance should not be too fast. Children hold hands and walk in a circle behind the leader. The older the children, the more complex movements can be introduced into the round dance: stops, claps, stomps, jumps, etc.
Round dance "Carousel"
Children become in a circle and begin to move slowly in a circle. The leader says the words, the children repeat.
Barely, barely.
The carousels are spinning
And then around, around
Everyone run, run, run.
Hush, hush, don't rush!
Stop the carousel!
One-two, one-two!
So the game is over!
Under the words “running, running”, the movements become faster, and after the words “quiet, quiet” - we switch to walking.
forward four steps
To the music, the children repeat the movements and words after the leader. When the children memorize fairly simple words, and this usually takes at least three repetitions, each next time you can start singing the song faster and louder until it becomes difficult for the children to keep up with the movements.
Four steps ahead
Back four steps
Spinning, spinning our round dance.
Let's stomp our feet,
Let's clap our hands.
We shake our shoulders,
And then we jump.
If it's fun, do it
The host sings and shows the movements, and the children repeat. Any movement can be.
If you have fun, do this (shows the first movement).
If you have fun, do this (shows the second movement).
If life is fun, let the sun smile on us.
If you have fun, do this (shows the third movement).
One of the children can be the next leader.
Video example of dancing games for the little ones
For children 4-6 years old
The sea is worried
An undeservedly forgotten game that is very popular among children 3-5 years old.
Need any dance not fast music. The host slowly sings, “The sea is worried - time. The sea is worried - two. The sea is worried - three. Children spin, dance and make arbitrary movements. At the words "Sea figure freeze!" - the players must freeze in place in the position in which they were caught by the leader's words. The host goes around his sea possessions and is looking for a player who will move.
You can complicate the game by allowing the host to make the frozen players laugh. Anyone who moves or laughs is out of the game. The last, the most persistent, becomes the leader.
Dance game for children "Zoo"
Children are given cards with drawings of animals. Task: the child must dance to the music, imitating the animal on his card. For example, bunnies and squirrels jump, a horse steps or jumps importantly, a tiger imitates throws for prey, etc. First, the children move one by one, then all together.
Dance games for children from 6-7 years old
Rope
At the chest level of the players, the two leaders pull the rope or tape. We turn on rhythmic cheerful music. Children line up. The goal is to pass under the rope without touching it, bending backwards with the whole body. Meanwhile, with each pass, the rope goes lower and lower ...
Mirror
This game has many names: Mirror, Monkeys, Repeat the movement, but the essence is the same. One leader is chosen, who becomes in a circle and dances to the music whatever he wants, and the rest of the participants copy his movements. In another version of this game, the participants are paired up and take turns copying each other. We strive for synchronization of movements.
Video example of this dance game for kids:
Toy shop
All participants receive the role of toys. The host (customer) enters the store, approaches all the toys in turn, and turns them on by touching them. Children depict various toys to the music, for example, a wind-up doll, a transformer, a car, a horse, a dog, etc. The host chooses one toy that he likes the most, “buys” it, and this player becomes the next host.
Forbidden movement
All participants stand in a circle and repeat the movements behind the leader to the music. But before the start of the game, the host shows one movement that cannot be repeated. If the participant still forgets and repeats this movement, he is eliminated. The complexity of the movements and the tempo of the music depend on the age of the children playing.
Obstacle dance
For children from 7 years
All children dance arbitrary movements to the music. The two leaders hold the ribbon or string so that it crosses the majority of the dance floor. The dancers must first step over the ribbon and then pass under it. At the same time, the leaders smoothly raise and lower the obstacle. Those who touched the obstacle are out.
New dance games
Aram Zam Zam
The game goes to the music of the popular song “Aram Zam Zam”.
Interestingly, the song was originally a Moroccan children's game "A Ram Sam Sam" - Sheep Sam. You can listen to the original sound of this song performed by Rolf Harris.
The now popular motif has been somewhat changed, the pace has been increased. compare yourself)
The leader shows the movements:
"aram-zam-am" - claps on the knees, three times, with a repeat;
"ghouls-ghouls-ghouls-ghouls" - rotations in front of the chest with arms bent at the elbows with fingers gathered into fists.
“arafik-arafik” - leaning forward with arms crossed on the chest, first from left to right, then from right to left.

Fly on the right
Fly on the right
Fly on the left
Flew away.
Fly on the right

The advantages of dancing games are undeniable:
- Way of expressing yourself
- Mastering the child some basic dance movements,
- Way of organizing leisure
- An addition to traditional competitions at events.
Very often, when organizing holidays or competitions for children at a school, children's camp or entertainment center, fun games with the hall are required. Usually they are used as a preparation of the hall for the main action, or in pauses in order to cheer up the attention of the guys who are tired of sitting. Such games are subject to several requirements at once, sometimes even somewhat opposite to each other. They should be:
- mobile, to give the audience a chance to warm up, because children need movement;
- not requiring significant movement of participants, most often they remain in their place;
- simple rules that do not require prior training from the participants;
- interesting, capable of immediately captivating a large number of those present in the hall.
To a greater extent, the quality of the leader affects the success of the game. It is his mastery of the hall, energy that make a simple game truly incendiary. The organizer must have a well-trained voice and ear for music, know the content of the game and its movements, and be able to set up the hall for the game.
This game requires preliminary preparation from the leader, and for the guys from the audience it is very simple. The host from the stage invites everyone to play a fairy tale known to everyone - “Gingerbread Man” or “Pockmarked Hen”, etc. Then he divides the hall into several teams according to the number of characters. For example, for the fairy tale "Rocked Hen" there will be commands "grandmother", "grandfather", "egg" and "mouse". Then the facilitator tells a fairy tale, deliberately confusing the plot, and the teams at the moment of pronouncing their hero must perform a simple action that does not require moving from their place - stand up, sit down, clap their hands, stomp, etc.
gold fish
A very simple game that is played to any cheerful music. It must be selected and downloaded in advance. The leader with one hand indicates sea level, and the second will depict a fish. When the “fish” emerges from the “sea”, the audience should clap their hands, when it just “floats” again, then no. The task of the children is not to miss the moment of emerging and clap their hands in time. Gradually the pace of the game increases. The game is available for both preschool children and those who are much older.
Let's add sound
A very simple chant game that is accessible to any age and allows you to effectively cheer up tired viewers. The host invites the children to portray the radio, and he plays the role of a button that increases or decreases the volume of sound. He raises his hand - the hall is noisy, making, for example, the sound A-A-A, lowers his hand - the sound subsides. In order for the audience to be interested, the “switching” of the sound can occur either smoothly or abruptly.
Music games
Feast of Disobedience
From the hall it is required to fulfill the requests-tasks of the presenter on the contrary. For example, when the host says “turn left”, everyone should turn right, etc. Usually this game does not last long, but creates a fun mood.
Traffic light
This game requires the presenters to prepare large green, yellow and red cards in advance. It will be more fun if there is an energetic song that is easy to download from the Internet. According to the signal card, the hall must perform certain actions:
- green: stomp your feet
- yellow: clap your hands
- red: sit quietly.
To make the game more fun, the host's assistant in the role of a negative character intentionally confuses the audience.
Soku – Bachi – Vira
This is a fun song game that came to us from hot Brazil. To understand it well, it is better to watch a video with this song and download a cheerful melody. In this song, movements alternate, corresponding to each specific word: a fist strike - a clap of hands - hands are placed crosswise on the shoulders.
Here is another version of the movements for this song. It is a little simpler, it is easier for children to master it for the first time.
- Soku-soku: everyone knocks twice with their fists on their knees, or the table, or the floor.
- Bachi-bachi: knock twice with open palms down.
- Soku-soku: again knock twice with fists on the knees, or the table, or the floor.
- Vira-vira: twice knock on the knees or the table with open palms up.
- Soku: knocking fist once
- Bachi: Knock once with open palms down.
Hen by grain
This Russian folk song and game based on it is more suitable for preschool and primary school children. The host sings the first line, the children repeat it the second time. Together with the words, the children repeat movements depicting the named characters. Video and melody can be downloaded from the Internet. Below is the text.
“Grandma and grandpa bought…”

This series is not only interesting and informative, but also accompanied by very cheerful energetic songs. One of them "Dryts-tyts, helper" can become the basis for a fun musical game.

See you soon!
The traditional Russian way to have fun: to sing your favorite songs in chorus to the harmonica (or without it) is still popular, especially among the older generation, but new musical entertainment, games and competitions are being added that bring variety, warmth and enthusiasm to the entertainment programs of the holidays.
The most favorite musical entertainments at the holiday are: karaoke, various reworking songs, musical quizzes, song rehashing with tasks or performing the text of a famous song in a different style: rap ,folk, musical, etc. If a music company is going, then the whole scenario can be conceived as a show, let the guests demonstrate their talents all evening - for example, "Become a Star" (you can see).
Music games and contests from our selection are very diverse: absolutely new and long-loved, lyrical and funny, table and game.
1. Musical game "Noise designers".
(to download - click the file)
6. Musical warm-up.
Remember the KVN “Warm-up” contest, and arrange the same improvisation at the holiday, only not from jokes, but from songs. Teams should exchange questions and answers from songs, i.e. one team recalls an interrogative line from the songs, the other affirmative, suitable in meaning. Then they switch roles. For example, the question: “What are you standing, swinging, thin rowan?”, The answer: “I got drunk, drunk, I won’t get home!”. Or: “Where are you, Marusya, with whom are you walking?” - "... I'm on the sleepers, again on the sleepers I'm going home out of habit."
You can play until your imagination runs out.
7. Musical compliments.
The program of any holiday, and especially a corporate one, can include a musical exchange of compliments between the male and female half of the hall. It is very easy to do this: the women's team recalls flattering lines from songs about men, while the men, on the contrary, sing excerpts from songs that can be regarded as compliments to the ladies. And they take turns exchanging these musical compliments.
As an example of praise for gentlemen, the host can recite the following lines from A. Sviridova's song:
“How good! You can trust a man!
How good! And don't think about anything!"
Like a song nod to beautiful ladies - a couplet from the hit by Y. Antonov:
“Attention, men! There is no reason to laugh!
Today, in every business, women are a match for us,
And we voluntarily teach others roles,
The winner is the team that within ten minutes will name more musical compliments, although the count may not be kept, let friendship win.
This flow of song compliments can also be directed in one direction, for example, on the women's holiday on March 8, arrange a musical congratulation - potpourri, which will consist of excerpts of compliment songs.
8. Song encyclopedia.
For this song rehashing, you can divide the hall into several teams (depending on the number of guests) and prepare cards in advance with the proposed song topics: animals, birds, plants, travel, love, and so on. Each team draws three to five cards. Five to seven minutes are given for reflection.
Then, by drawing lots, each team presents their musical illustrations, for example, the theme “Stones”: “Give me a moonstone”, “He has a granite stone in his chest”, “I can do everything, I can do everything - my heart is not a stone.” It is allowed to sing both one line from the song, and the whole verse or chorus. The main thing is to match the meaning of the task.
For each answer in the topic - a point. Winners are determined by the amount of points earned.
9. "Orchestra of virtual instruments".
From the guests (10 - 15 people) we create an Orchestra of virtual instruments - each draws a card with a written instrument, everyone, of course, is different. Participants must portray the playing of instruments very expressively, so that it is clear who is playing music on what.
Then the presenter explains that he will be the conductor, but he will also play the drums. However, the leader-conductor will always “switch” to any other instrument, and the player whose instrument is currently representing the leader must immediately stop his movements.
In this way, those “musicians” who “missed” the leader’s new movement gradually drop out of the game of the virtual orchestra. The most attentive player wins.
