What did our great-great-great-grandmothers and great-great-great-grandfathers play in winter? How to give yourself and your children the joy of holiday and fun? Why does a child need fun, and not just “serious” educational games? You will learn about this from this article. And also take a trip to the 19th century by playing ancient pre-revolutionary children's games.

Children's holiday at home: why do children need fun games?

Educational games are something that every family now knows about, what they write about in magazines and books, and what they show in videos and TV shows. But fun games... Do we know funny Games for children? How often do we play them? Do we include them in our family holidays? These fun games For some reason, they are often forgotten for children and are not so often found in modern families. It's a pity. After all, they not only create a special atmosphere family holiday, comfort, warmth, emotional support, interesting communication, but also develop the child no worse than “serious” educational games. And besides, it’s so nice to play with them for both adults and children! It is fun games that develop ingenuity, imagination, speed of reaction, flexibility of behavior, independence, the ability to quickly find a way out of a new situation and give the child a cheerful, cheerful mood - the basis for his successful development.

Why does a child need funny funny games? Why does a child need to play with other children or play in a friendly circle of children and adults? Why doesn’t a child’s “educational game” “alone” (with a computer or with chips and a playing field) replace playing with other people? Let's look into history and find answers to these questions.

This is how Yegor Arsenievich Pokrovsky wrote about children's games in the 19th century in the book “Children's Games, Mostly Russian. In connection with history, ethnography, pedagogy and hygiene" (1887):

“There are also views regarding education that are practiced by a certain part of the public and have a lot of harmful influence on the success of the development of children's games... Due to these views, for example, the fast, impetuous movements of children during play are considered impossibly rude, too provincial, masculine; sincere fun in games, of which only children are capable, about whom there is even a saying “He rejoices like a child,” is considered completely inappropriate, indecent, trivial. Simplicity in dressing as required for the most part for many free children's games, it is also considered impermissible, humiliating the child to the level of a craftsman, etc., and yet it is precisely dressed up children, like dolls, according to a fashionable French magazine... and cannot be sent to the game, because such clothes will interfere and freely run, and fight, etc.

There is obviously no joy in the games of such children... Meanwhile, from absolute abstinence from games, look at what sad consequences can occur: children in this case do not learn, while playing, many techniques that are necessary and useful in life, they do not learn reasonable attitudes towards to their own kind, but in the end they often turn out strange, inept, often arousing only laughter and mockery at themselves. It is true that they say that “he is more likely to be cut with a knife who has not learned to handle it since childhood...” Along with this remark, let us recall the caustic mockery of the ancient Kornsad, who expressed the idea that the sons of rich parents do not know how to do anything except ride a horse, yes and this is because horses do not flatter them, but, on the contrary, immediately throw them off if they do not comprehend the art of riding. Deep meaning this ridicule has been fully preserved to this day

There are relatively few games that are designed for solo play; on the contrary, most games require the participation of more or less other children. In this distribution of games, without a doubt, lies the target, so that with their help, on the one hand, it is better teach children to communicate among themselves, mutual services, mutual preservation of their interests; on the other hand, to accustom one to the excitement of competition, mutual criticism, recognition of merits or shortcomings, encouragement of those who showed greater dexterity, art, dignity in the game, and vice versa, censure of those who somehow blundered in the game.

Often here a well-gifted child leads a less capable child, one helps the other to improve, and in the end everyone helps each other; but at the same time, everyone, in essence, remains in the same rights... In the end, all this leads children to closer mutual communication, unity and friendly work...

No family circle, no school can give anything like this, and yet in games this is achieved so easily and simply.”

Let's play! And let's give each other good mood!

Fun games for children and adults: let's play together.

Children's games at home: ancient Russian games

Game "Twitch"

A “vodir” is chosen (now we call it “driving”, and children even now often speak in the old fashioned way with the emphasis on the first syllable - “voda”). The water guy is blindfolded.

The remaining participants in the game are players. In this game they are called "twitchers".

Rule of the game: Players are not allowed to leave their seats. If this rule is violated, the player becomes a “water man”.

Progress of the game: Vodir stands in the center of the room, blindfolded. Players enter the room and sit near the walls. Vodir begins to walk around the room.

The players attract the waterman’s attention and “tug” him. For example, they say “Turg-twitch” or rustle their feet on the floor or rustle their clothes in turns. Someone pulled the waterman by the hem. And then on the other side they whispered: “Derg-derg,” and after that a new sound - someone slapping their knees. The waterman needs to guess who pulled him (that is, said or slammed or made some kind of sound). If he guessed right, he transfers his role to the puller. Then the twitcher, who has been solved, becomes the waterman in the new game.

The players' task is to confuse the waterman so that he cannot guess who it is. Therefore, they may speak in a voice that is not their own - squeaky or, on the contrary, bass, etc.

Game "Blind Man's Bluff at the Wall"

Very funny and funny game. Such a fun game is very good for the New Year! After all, it is carried out with a candle and in the dark. And carries unforgettable experience, laughter and joy. In addition, children love playing with shadows and coming up with their own options on how to “deceive” the game leader. Whoever they dress up as! And how they laugh when they are confused with... their mom or dad!!!

This is how this ancient game is played. In “blind man’s buff against the wall,” the presenter is not blindfolded; on the contrary, he will need to look very carefully “in both eyes.”

You will need a light wall (this could be a wall in the hallway or in the room). If your walls are dark, you can hang a sheet. A table or chair with a burning candle is placed at a distance from the wall. A chair for the driver is placed between the candle and the wall.

Players will walk past the candle behind the driver so that their shadow appears on the wall. Players take turns walking slowly along the wall, and the driver must guess from the shadow who has passed it.

All players try to confuse the driver. They can wrap themselves in a cloak, put on someone else’s hat, walk crouched to the floor or, on the contrary, walk on tiptoes, stretch their necks or retract them, hunch over, limp, bend over, intertwine their arms or legs, walk in pairs, etc. The player’s task is to figure out how to confuse the driver and how to pass without being recognized.

The driver is forbidden to turn his head back and look at the person and not at the shadow when guessing. If the driver makes a mistake, then he pays a forfeit (fulfills the task - tells a joke, sings a verse of a song, congratulates everyone, etc.). The driver is replaced when he has guessed one of the players or when everyone has passed.

For the game, I advise you to prepare the necessary simple items that you can dress up in - an old sheet to wrap yourself in, a beret or hat, a mask, a scarf, a cardboard box, costume elements such as hare ears, etc. Or you can make it simpler - come up with your own “suit” for the game together and allow everyone to use all the contents of the closet.

Game "Even-odd"

A great game for sharing gifts or little surprises for guests.

Prepare small surprises in advance - candies, stickers, small calendars or pictures, badges or postcards, toys, pencils, cookies, waffles, etc. You can ask all guests to take some surprises with them and use them for a common game.

So, having collected all the surprises you brought and collected, we begin to divide them into piles. The piles will be different - some piles will have an even number of gifts, and some will have an odd number. The piles are covered with opaque scarves on top. This is an old version. And now we can simply put the gifts in opaque bags - and then there is no need for scarves.

We start playing gifts. The first player points to one of the piles and asks: “Even or odd?” The second player answers either “even” or “odd”. Let's count the gifts in this pile. If the second player guessed right, then he takes a bunch of gifts and asks the third player (along the chain): “Even or odd?” The third one answers, etc. In this game, kids will not only receive surprise gifts, but will also be happy to learn how to count gifts :).

Game "Okhlopok"

Very simple game. Everyone stands in a circle and throws a piece of cotton wool up (you need to fluff it up; throwing a roll of cotton wool is useless - it won’t fly:). The goal is to prevent the cotton wool from falling. The player near whom the clapper falls pays a forfeit (sings a song, crows, reads a poem, etc.). Therefore, everyone is trying to quickly blow the cotton away from themselves to their neighbor. The cotton flies either higher or lower, so the players either squat, then stand on tiptoe, or bend over. Usually the result is a very funny picture.

If there are few players, then the game is played at the table. They toss the cotton and keep their hands under the table. Next to whom the cotton “landed”, he pays a fine - a forfeit.

Game "Wing"

The driver is selected. The remaining participants in the game are players.

The players sit at a table and under the table in a circle pass each other an object tied to a thread. At the same time they say:

Oh, little wing, hurry up,

Don't falter and don't lose your temper,

Don't look from under the table

Otherwise there will be trouble.

You need to pass the object on a string in such a way that the driver does not guess who has the “wing.” Therefore, the players, even without a wing, pretend that they are passing it on, wink at each other and try in every possible way to confuse the driver.

At the last word in the text (this is the word “trouble”), the “wing” stops at one of the players. The driver's task is to guess who has the wing and where it stopped.

If he guessed right, then this player with the wing in his hands becomes the driver in the next game. If not, then the driver pays a forfeit. Redemption of a forfeit - a song, dance, riddle, congratulation or trick.

It is important not to break the thread when passing an item on a string. Whoever breaks the thread also pays a forfeit.

Game "Birds Fly"

All players sit in a circle at the table. One hand is on the table. The game leader begins the story:

"I have traveled a lot around different countries. And I came to this wonderful conclusion: all living creatures covered with feathers fly. All birds fly." At the last words, the presenter raises forefinger hands up and everyone repeats after him. The rule of the game is reported: if it is a bird and it flies, then you need to raise your index finger up. Then the presenter continues: “And ducks fly (the driver and players raise a finger up for each correct phrase), and geese fly, and tits fly. And lions fly” Many players will automatically raise their fingers up. And they will be wrong.

The game must be played at a fast pace, alternating birds, animals, fish, insects (they also fly, but they are not birds, and therefore there is no need to raise a finger), flying objects - autumn leaves, arrow (no need to raise your finger, it’s not a bird)

Everyone who made a mistake pays forfeits at the end of the game and completes simple tasks.

Game "Pull and Let"

A very simple and very fun attention game, in which even adults often make mistakes and laugh from it. She is very funny and beautiful. You will need wide satin ribbons about a meter long. How many players are in the game - so many ribbons you need.

The host of the game stands in the center of the room, and the players sit on chairs around him. The chairs are placed in a circle. The driver in the center of the circle holds all the ribbons. He gives the other end of the tape to each player. Ribbons like rays of the sun go from him to the players.

The presenter quickly says either “Pull” or “Let”. What is the highlight of this fun game? The problem is that when you say “pull,” you have to release the tape. But for the word “let” you need to pull the tape, on the contrary! There will be a lot of mistakes!

In this game you can collect forfeits for mistakes. Or you can do the opposite - play for the winner, who will receive a small prize for not making a mistake.

Game "Change Apartments"

Everyone is sitting on chairs. The driver shouts: “Change apartments! Change apartments! At these words, everyone jumps up from their chairs and looks for a new place. And since the driver has already taken one place, there may not be enough space for someone. So everyone is in a hurry, running, in a hurry. Those who did not manage to take a seat pay a forfeit. As soon as the forfeit is paid, immediately (while everyone still has not had time to gather their thoughts) a new command sounds: “Change apartments! Change apartments!” The game is played at a fast pace.

Game "Plate"

Players stand or sit in a circle. Each player names himself after an animal. For example, “I am a hare.” “And I’m a fox,” etc. When everyone has remembered each other's new names, the game begins.

Take a wooden (old-fashioned) or plastic plate or bowl ( modern version) and twist it tightly so that it spins (Instead of a plate, you can use many other modern objects, for example, a roll of stationery tape. The main thing is that the object can be twisted)

As soon as the plate is spun, immediately shout out the name of one of the players. For example: “Hare, catch it!” The hare needs to catch the spinning plate before it falls. Now the hare spins the plate and calls the other player: “Bear, catch it!” etc.

In this game, reaction speed is developed; all players need to be very agile, attentive and tenacious.

Anyone who did not have time to grab the plate pays a forfeit.

Game "Korchaga"

The driver in the game is the potter. It is covered with a scarf on top and planted in the center of the room.

A senior player is selected, who secretly gives names to all the other players. For example, the names of flowers: “You will be a daisy. And you are a rose. And you are a forget-me-not.”

The players stand around the pot. The older player calls them, calling them by the name of the flower. For example: “Chamomile, come here.” Chamomile approaches Korchaga and lightly touches his back with his hand, quickly returns to his place and claps his hands.

The senior player removes the handkerchief from the pot and asks: “Who held it?” If the driver guesses who touched him, then the guessed player becomes the grubber in the next game. If he didn’t guess right, then he’ll have to spend some time in the role of a crook.

Games - riddles, puzzles, charades, puns.

Such games have also been known for a long time and are ancient. They played them for forfeits. If you don’t guess correctly, pay forfeit and have fun with everyone. You can play in another way - for the winner who guessed greatest number puzzles. Here are some tasks from the 19th century:

1.Why is a chicken more likely to eat a portion of oats than a horse? (Because chicken doesn't eat horses)

2. Is it possible for dogs to run into the room and eat up the entire floor? (pun: eaten out = from spruce). Answer: Maybe if the floor is made of spruce.

3. “Young girls are willing to attend the first one; the second is not necessary for girls, but for boys it is necessary for many games. It’s really nice to leave the stuffy room” (Answer to the charade: ball + con = balcony) Other possible charades that you can easily create by analogy yourself: comp + pass = compass. Steam + hell = parade. Deg+us=degree. Dexterity + bone = agility. Air + spirit = air.

1) Guests are announced that there is only one roll left toilet paper and they propose to divide it among everyone right now. The roll is passed on to everyone present at the table and everyone unwinds and tears off as much as they want. Surely everyone will try to grab more for themselves. After this, the presenter announces that whoever rewinds how many divisions must tell as many facts about himself, which must be interesting and truthful.

3) The presenter stands behind one of the guests, in his hands - a sheet of paper with the name of a particular institution: “Maternity hospital”, “Tavern”, “Sobering-up station” and so on.

The host asks him various questions, for example, “Do you often visit this establishment,” “What do you do there,” “Why do you like it there,” and the guest must answer.

4) Truth or Ransom: The host selects any guest and asks “Truth or ransom?” If a person answers “True,” he must honestly answer any question the host asks him. Well, if he answered “Ransom”, it means he must complete some task. After completion, he himself becomes the leader.

5) Nonsense:
Questions are written, the same number for each participant. When the questions are written, then in order to write the answer, a question word is asked, for example, if there is a question - “Which direction does the northeast wind blow?”, then you only need to say “in which direction?”
When the answers are written, the questions are read in full. Sometimes such nonsense comes out that you might fall under a chair!

6) Fortune Pie: cut a circle out of cardboard, paint it on one side so it looks like a pie, and cut it into pieces. Now you need to draw a picture on the back of each piece and put the pie together. At the holiday, each guest must choose and take a piece for themselves. The picture is what promises the future. For example, if you get an image of a heart, it means great love awaits you. The image of a letter - to receive news, a road - to travel, a key - to change your place of residence, a car - to buy a vehicle. A rainbow or sun foretells a good mood. Well and so on)))

7) Contest: 3 women required and main character(man). The women are seated on chairs and the man is blindfolded. You can spin it to distract attention. At this time, 2 women are exchanged for 2 men (men wear tights). The main character is brought to those sitting and he must identify (for example, his wife - she must be from 3 participants). You can touch, only up to the knees and it is better not to make sounds so that the “hero” does not understand that a replacement has occurred.

8) Collect everything on the table: bottles, snacks, in general, all the most expensive things and place them on the grass. The task is to walk blindfolded and not hit anything. They blindfold someone who is not involved, i.e. the audience is distracting - look carefully, otherwise there will be nothing to drink.... the presenter at this time puts everything aside.... it was a spectacle =))) one like the sapper moves his hands across the grass, using a second compass, it won’t be amiss if the audience also shouts: you’re about to step on cucumbers! etc

11) Contest Quite fun, can be carried out in any conditions, but it is very advisable to have a camera and an approximately equal number of girls/boys.
The point is this - 2 sets of names of body parts are written on pieces of paper - well, hand, stomach, forehead.... then 2 sets of names are pulled out in pairs. The task is to touch the indicated parts of the body. and in the process...it turns out simple visual material According to the Kama Sutra, a camera is simply necessary here!!! and the couple who manages to touch wins the largest number points!!! You will really like this competition if it is held in a youth company of close friends.

12) Dancing on a leaf

13) Balls with a secret: You need to prepare tasks in advance, written on pieces of paper, and place them in balloons, which should then be inflated and hung around the room. This way you will decorate the hall, and towards the end of the holiday you will also entertain the guests. Let participants choose one or two balloons, pop them, read them and complete the tasks. Write something simple, for example, “make a toast in honor of all the women gathered,” “sing a song with the words “spring” and “love,” etc. Thus, the good old game of forfeits becomes more interesting and varied.

14) With my eyes closed: Wearing thick mittens, participants must determine by touch what kind of person is in front of them. The game is more interesting when the guys guess the girls, and the girls guess the guys. You can feel the whole person.

(photo from personal archive :)) it was fun :))

15) Fanta- This is a wonderful opportunity to have fun, have fun and make fun of each other. Usually one leader is chosen, who turns his back to everyone else. Behind him, the second presenter takes a phantom (an object that belongs to one of the guests) and asks a trivial question: “What should this phantom do?” And anyone who wants to get their phantom back must fulfill the will of the presenter. But first you need to collect “forfeits” and these games are perfect for this.
