"Egg Relay"
The first competition should be the competition that everyone is fed up with enough, but it will please the patron of next year - the Fire Rooster. In the original plot, the children should be divided into two teams, stand next to each other, and on the contrary, put two trays. At the command of the host, the first player from the team takes a spoon, puts a tangerine in it and carries it to the tray. As soon as he does this, the next player on the team takes the spoon and repeats the procedure. The first team to transfer all the tangerines to the tray wins.
In order to make this game themed, tangerines should be exchanged for eggs. Don't forget to boil them so that they don't break if dropped. If you want to make the game even more interesting for children, paint all the eggs in the New Year theme.
"Cap"
An excellent children's competition for the New Year 2017 - "Kolpak". To do this, all the children must stand in a circle, the leader gives one player a New Year's cap and turns on the music. While she is playing, the players pass the cap around the circle until the music stops. The participant who had a cap in his hands when the music stopped, puts it on and performs the task of the presenter.
In order for this competition to please the Fire Rooster, the cap should be changed to a hat with a crest. You can make it yourself from cardboard, sew it or just buy it in the store.
"Artist"
This competition for children for the New Year 2017 will again divide the company into two teams. It is also necessary to prepare two easels, whatman paper, markers and eye patches in advance. The first player of the team stands in front of the easel with a clean paper on it. He is blindfolded, given a marker, and he begins to draw a New Year's picture: it can be anything - a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, a snowman, a Snow Maiden. The patron of 2017 according to the eastern calendar, the Fire Rooster, must be present in the picture.
When the first player draws one element of the picture, he removes the blindfold, passes it to the second player, who will have to continue the drawing blindfolded. The team with the prettiest drawing wins.
"Crocodile"
A classic game that both adults and children enjoy playing. Two people begin to play, the first thinks of a New Year's fairy tale or song to the second. The second player, without the help of words, but only showing with facial expressions and body, tries to convey to other participants what they have guessed for him. The guessing player leaves, and the one who just showed the hidden fairy tale or song comes up with a new winning child.
The game can continue as long as the children are interested in playing it. Since the coming year will be the Year of the Fire Rooster, in addition to New Year's songs and fairy tales, you can expand the list of phrases and words you think of to the point that is associated with the Rooster and the eastern horoscope.
Adults love games and contests for the New Year no less than children. In 2017, try to come up with as many entertainments as possible for all guests to appease the Fire Rooster with fun and laughter.
Contests for adults should be selected depending on the company. If you've invited the whole family, including grandparents, think of some quiet contests where they don't have to run and jump. If there are only young people among those invited, then the contests can be a little “spicy”.
"Snow Sniper"
This competition for the New Year-2017 provides for the presence of 2 buckets and many lumps of cotton wool. Guests are divided into two or three teams, depending on their number. Each team is given the same number of cotton balls that will replace the snowballs. A bucket is placed at a distance of 5-7 meters, and each team begins to throw snowballs into it. The smaller the bucket, the more difficult it will be to hit, so if you want to make the competition more difficult, take children's buckets or even glasses. The team that manages to throw the most snowballs into the container wins.
To make this New Year's contest even more like the Fire Rooster, the symbol of 2017, you can change snowballs for grains, and buckets for small glasses. So the competition will become unusual and more difficult.
holidaydays.com "Fees"
A fun competition for the New Year 2017 for adults - "Fees". Of the props for it, you only need mittens. To participate in the competition, the host selects all the guests whose clothes are buttoned. Anyone who is given mittens becomes a pair of them. The task of the player in mittens is to gather his partner for the holiday. To do this, he needs to put on a shirt on him and fasten all the buttons (even on the sleeves). The team that completes their task the fastest wins.
The competition can become even funnier if a festive cap is put on a person in mittens. But you need to put it on not your head, but on your face so that it looks like a bird's beak. This detail will not only prevent the participants from taking a closer look at the buttons to make them easier to fasten, but will also please the patron saint of the coming year - the Fire Rooster.
"Princess on the Pea"
"Princess and the Pea" is an excellent competition for the New Year 2017 for a cheerful youth company. Only girls participate in it. The facilitator arranges chairs behind each girl. They stand with their backs to the chair, and at this time small objects are placed on it (grains, caramels, designer parts, etc.). Sitting on a chair behind her, the participant must guess what is on the chair and how many pieces. The participant who is closest to the correct answer wins.
If all the guests understand the jokes, then you can put nothing on one chair or place a drawing depicting the Fire Rooster - the symbol of 2017. Then the girl will try for a very long time to understand what she sat down on, especially if several girls in front of her already give the correct answers.
"Who am I"
Another cool contest for the New Year 2017 is “Who am I”. To organize it, you only need sticky stickers, a marker and a stopwatch. All guests are divided into teams so that each has an equal number of participants. One player from the team comes out in turn, the leader sticks a sticker on his forehead, where the noun is already written. The word must have something to do with the holiday.
A participant with a sticker on his forehead begins to ask the questions “Am I alive?”, “Am I an actor?”, “Do I have magical powers?”, And the players from his team can only answer “yes” or “no”. You should not think of the simplest words, otherwise the competition will be too easy. As soon as the player guesses who he is, the next team enters the game. At the same time, the presenter records the exact time during which the player from each team was able to guess who he is. Then the second team members go out, etc. The team that completes its task the fastest wins.
This competition is good because it can last as long as you like, and absolutely all guests can participate in it - from children to grandparents. Such a competition for the New Year-2017 for the whole family will please the Fire Rooster, and he will definitely bring good luck to your home.
“As you celebrate the New Year, so you will spend it” - remember this saying when you plan a festive night. The more fun, laughter and smiles, the happier the coming 2017 will be for you.
Try to think together with the whole family in advance how to celebrate the New Year 2017. Dream about what it will be like for you, make a list of desires and goals. And, of course, do not forget to think in advance, on the festive table, to choose for yourself and the children, and for all relatives and friends.
November 21, 2016
Starting with the first snowflakes slowly circling in the frosty air, we begin to wait for HIM! The most wonderful, most fabulous, incredible and fun holiday is the New Year!
There is no longer a single holiday, three months before which, friends would ask: “Well, what do you think about the New Year?”. Yes, this is exactly the day when the aliens are in a panic from an unknown signal from the Earth - “The new year is rushing towards us, soon everything will happen ..”, and the whole planet glows with bright lights and fireworks! It is from December 31 to January 1 at 23:59 that we all stand with glasses of bubble champagne in our hands and are happy to meet the new year and new emotions that will burst into our lives, and this, by the way, is a great reason to throw an unrealistically cool party !
It is impossible to imagine any party without the company of beloved friends. With them, at least International Pancake Day, at least celebrate Bastille Day - always fun and interesting! In order not to interrupt this wonderful tradition, you should thoroughly prepare for organizing the main party of the year!
An important part of the 2017 meeting is the entertainment program: games and competitions for the New Year for adults. They make you get to know each other better, make the team more united, and the evening is more interesting, if you know what I mean 😉
website I am sure that almost all adults will take part in pranks with great pleasure, dance in a round dance, make a cool toast and compete in exciting contests! They can be different: playful, smart, dexterous and, of course, with erotic overtones. It all depends on the degree of looseness of the party guests.
We offer 12 fun games and contests to celebrate the New Year, which will make the party fun and memorable.
1. So it's about me!
Small paper bags are taken in which you can put souvenirs, sweets or any small items (batteries, condoms, a glass ...). Nominations are written on the packages:
- the longest-haired;
- the one who kissed the girl before everyone else;
- the one that kissed the guy before everyone else;
- the owner of underwear with the largest number of colors and shades;
- the strongest armwrestler;
- the lady with the highest heel;
- the most thrifty smoker (the one or the one who has the most cigarettes with him);
- the coolest rapper (the fastest to read poetry);
- the bluest eyes of 2017;
- the loudest laughter of 2017;
- the craziest act of 2016;
- the most unlucky (the one who did not get any of the holiday packages).
You can come up with your own nominations - the most suitable for your friends and family.
Ready-made packages with contents need to be hung on a Christmas tree. This can be done before the guests arrive, but then they will be discovered too early, most likely even before everyone has gathered. Therefore, it is best to do this right after midnight, when everyone goes to look at the balcony or outside to watch the New Year's fireworks. At this point, hang the packages on the tree. Than not original gifts for all those present.
The guests returning from the fireworks will notice the new Christmas tree decorations and start the competition…
2. What do you remember about the outgoing year?
Buy whatman paper in size A1 or A0. At the top, write in large letters “What do you remember about 2016”. To make the inscription look even and beautiful, print it on a printer using the New Year's font you like. You can stick photos of guests on whatman paper (for couples - use joint pictures). There should be space between photographs for drawings. It is even better if you order such a poster in a printing house.
Hang the poster on the wall or closet. Let everyone draw next to his photo the best event for him of the outgoing year. Someone will depict a palm tree, symbolizing a vacation in warm countries, someone will have a new car, and for someone it will be a child with a briefcase walking confidently to school for the first time.
You can make such collections of positive memories a tradition of your friendly company.
3. Coolest of all
We choose the main characters of the evening - Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. Those who wish to change into costumes, take thematic attributes: a beard, mittens, a staff, a bag with gifts, and introduce themselves to the public in turn. The most cheerful, charismatic and irresistible guy or girl will become Santa Claus. The choice is made by applause voting. Not only girls, but also brave guys can take part in the casting for the role of the Snow Maiden! A little powder, red lipstick and a wig with pigtails will turn a serious top manager into a sweet granddaughter of Santa Claus. A short fashion show in a skirt will determine who will become the queen of the party, even if she is with bristles.
4. Alphabet
Further, to warm up the guests of the party, it will be correct to hold a competition for the best toast in alphabetical order. The bottom line is this - everyone in turn says a toast with wishes, but not just like that, but it should begin with a specific letter. For example, the first with “A” - “The sweetest orange, the tastiest tangerine, good Santa Claus will bring you as a gift”, then to “B” - “Great hopes, beautiful dreams, rays of goodness, and a cute beaver! Happy New Year!”, “B” - “Santa Claus comes to the house, he brought us gifts: a soft bear, a delicious cake, a telephone and a moon rover, pasta, an orange, soap, a gingerbread and a dolphin.”
In such a cheerful manner, everyone makes their toasts, the author of the most original rhyme receives a prize.
An easier option - a wish consists of one or two words per dropped letter. For example: wish A active rest, b wealth, V ezania, G lamura, d money…
Especially lucky for those who get the letters Y, Y, b, b 🙂
5. Hello, sleepwalkers
Such a competition is best held when all the guests are already in a cheerful mood. One participant is seated on a chair, and now he plays the role of the main lunar base, others will depict moon rovers and asteroids flying by. To do this, you need to crawl on all fours around the room, saying: “Reception, Lunokhod-1 is calling the base”, “Lunokhod-2, we need refueling at the lunar base, the battery has run out.”
An asteroid periodically flies between spaceships at speed, and with the words “Banzai” tries to get into the lunar rover. There is only one rule in this game - do not laugh! At all! The one who gets a laugh in his mouth crawls to the base to receive a task.
It might look like this:
- remove two layers of skin from your lunokhod;
- pour 200 ml of fuel into Lunokhod 1;
- solder 3 new skin parts on Lunokhod-2;
- dock with Lunokhod-3;
- explore the environment in reverse mode, etc.
Whoever never laughs wins. Great mood guaranteed for everyone!
6. New Year's sculptor
Props for two sculptures:
— round balloons of various colors, 100 pieces;

- balloons for modeling (those from which clowns make dogs), pieces 50;

- threads, 2 spools;

We divide into two teams and start creating a festive sculpture. The choice of image is at the discretion of the organizer: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, rooster (symbol of 2017), monkey (symbol of 2016), snowman or any other interesting character. 
7. Pass it on
The good old match game will help the audience get to know each other better and loosen up a little. All guests stand in a circle, alternating - a guy, a girl. The match is cleaned of sulfur, the first participant takes it with his lips and passes it to the next. After the first round, the match is cut off by a few mm, and it goes to a new circle. The game ends when the participants have nothing to transfer, well, or at will.
8. News
Participants receive leaflets on which five words are written. According to them, in five minutes they must compose interesting news. Words from the card can be turned into any part of speech, for example:
- England, Chinese, axe, genetics, Malvina (English geneticists crossed the Chinese with an axe. But he refused to chop wood, but he cut out a wooden Malvina for Pinocchio - let the kid have fun until the knot is dry);
- Tula, flashlight, minibus, roofing material, camel;
- Zimbabwe, pan, sun, skis, toothbrush;
- Antarctica, soap, ostrich, bicycle, ear.
9. Associations
One person whispers a certain word into the ear of the next person, he passes a synonym or a word close in meaning to this word to his neighbor, and so on until the end. The last participant says the word aloud, and it is compared with the first, often at the end completely unrelated words are found, such as sea and olivier.
10. Slow motion
Everyone can take part in this game. In turn, each participant is given a task, which he must depict in slow motion:
- capture of Sparta;
- tearful declaration of love;
- fight with the invisible;
- escape from the tiger;

The winner will be the one who copes with the task faster than his opponent.
"I'll freeze!"
This competition is suitable for the youngest kindergarteners. The kids take hold of the handles and lead a round dance around Santa Claus. And the old man, in turn, threatens to freeze everyone and everything. To the music, the grandfather says loudly: “I’ll freeze, freeze, freeze my ears.” In response, the kids should let go of the neighbor and take hold of the ears. Then Santa Claus continues: “I’ll freeze, freeze, freeze my heels.” The children react accordingly. The game continues for another 5-6 approaches (with cheeks, knees, noses, etc.).

The coolest contests for the New 2017 Year of the Rooster for a fun company
The most fun and frank contests are usually held on New Year's Eve 2017 in a fun company of adults. Where there are no children and teenagers, and adults are already a little tipsy. If the boss is a cheerful and creative person, he will also be happy to take part in humorous parodies, funny New Year's relay races, drawings and lotteries with symbolic prizes.
"New Year's chimes"
To make a corporate party in honor of the New Year 2017 even more fun and humorous, we recommend holding a simple contest. At the entrance to the festive hall, you need to put a "ticketer" with homemade lottery tickets. Each new guest must buy a ticket with a task and the exact time for its execution for a minimum amount. There is also a symbolic amount of winnings for a task completed on time. Participants do not consult among themselves about the received missions. Secrecy and punctuality are the most important rules. The prize fund is formed from the box office from the sale of lotteries. The essence of the competition lies in unexpected curiosities and unplanned fun. It's funny, however, if in the middle of the toast, at exactly 22.43, the accountant Vasily Arkadievich gets up and starts crowing loudly for the whole room or dancing "can-can" at the bar counter.
"New Year's turnip"
Turnip - claps, beats his knees with his palms and says "both-on";
Grandfather - rubs his hands with the words "Tek-s";
Grandmother - shakes her fist at grandfather and says "I would kill";
Granddaughter - shrugs her shoulders with the words "I'm ready" (it is better to give the role to the most brutal man);
A bug - scratches behind the ear, saying "Fleas got it";
Cat - wags her hips with the phrase "I'm on my own";
Mouse - shakes his head and says "Finished";
The facilitator lines up the characters in a row and begins to read the tale. Participants play their roles accordingly: Grandfather ("Take-s") Planted a Turnip ("Oba-on"). Turnip grew up (“Both-on!”) Big-very big. Grandfather (“Tek-s”) began to pull Turnip (“Oba-na!”) Pull. Pulls, pulls, can't pull. He called Grandfather (“Tek-s”) Grandmother (“I would have killed”), etc. A complete apotheosis begins from the moment "Grandfather for Turnip, Grandmother for Grandfather, Granddaughter for Grandmother ..."
Comic contests for the New Year 2017 for a small friendly company

Friends, as a rule, are not shy, not embarrassed, sincerely show emotions and have fun. Active and mobile humorous games and contests for the New Year 2017 are a real find for a small team that knows how to "come off to its fullest"!
"Drunken Checkers"
For the game, they use a real board for checkers, and glasses are used as pieces. On one side are stacks of red wine, on the other - with white. Further, everything is the same as in a regular game: he cut down a pile of the enemy - he drank it. The strongest masters of international class can pour cognac and vodka. But even they will not be able to master more than three games of a drunken tournament.
"Drunken Reciter"
Once upon a time in the cold winter time,
I came out of the forest; there was severe frost.
I look, it rises slowly uphill
Horse carrying firewood.
And, marching importantly, in serenity,
A man is leading a horse by the bridle
In big boots, in a sheepskin coat,
In big mittens ... and himself with a fingernail! ...
Each of the participants must read funny lines using the intonation of one of the characters:
- football match commentator;
- a guest reading a toast to the hero of the day;
- a young romantic who confesses his love;
- a strict judge announcing the verdict;
- little frightened child;
- a director reading a notation to an employee;
"Most dexterous"
There are three girls in the competition. At the command of the leader, the ladies put on men's gloves, then shirts. The task for the participants is to fasten the buttons on the shirts as quickly as possible without removing the gloves. The winner of the competition receives a prize - a set of needles and threads or a nail file. There is not much difference, since both options will be appropriate.
Mobile contests, games and entertainment for the family for the New Year 2017 of the Rooster

"Grab it"
This competition is very similar to the traditional game - round dance around the chairs. Simply put, its funny variation for the New Year 2017. But in this case there are no chairs. An exceptionally round table or stool with a tray on which cool attributes are laid out: huge glasses, false mustaches, etc. Participants move around the table to the music, and after a pause, they take apart and put on funny little things. Whoever gets nothing is out!
"Under the chimes"
All family members and guests of the holiday are divided into two teams. The host gives the captains a box of Christmas tree decorations. The smallest member of each team will play the role of a festive spruce, the rest will have to dress up. Toys, garlands and tinsel can be hung on fingers, ears, buttons, etc. As soon as the presenter turns on the recording with the chimes, the participants rush to decorate their improvised Christmas tree. The winner of the competition is the team whose creation will turn out to be the brightest and most amusing until the last strike of the chimes.
"Snow Candy"
To participate in the competition, the host selects two participants. Previously, the hostess lady hides chocolates in deep bowls with flour in such a way that only small ponytails of wrappers stick out “from under the snow”. At the command of the host, players must get the maximum amount of candy from flour using any part of the body ... Except for the hands!

Such a fun competition for the New Year 2017 will be a good warm-up before active games and a great opportunity not to get bored at the table at the very beginning of the meal. The organizer of the holiday can invite guests and family members to take turns speaking short funny toasts “in alphabetical order”. Eg:

The number of participants in this competition should not exceed half of those present. Each player draws a secret card with a character's name. For example, Santa Claus, Snowman, Rooster, Drunken Horse, etc. After evaluating their character, the players must defile him with a gait on an impromptu catwalk. And the audience - to guess the hero as quickly as possible. The participant who will be declassified before the rest will win.
"Deer and Santa"
In this competition, participants compete in pairs: one of the duo is Deer, the second is Santa. The deer is blindfolded and two laces are attached to the belt. Santa stands behind and picks up the ends of the laces - the reins. With the help of pins or empty bottles, the leader organizes two tracks. On a signal, couples start: Santas control the Reindeer using improvised reins. The duo that knocks down the minimum number of obstacles on the way wins.
