Good afternoon
Happy New Year, friends! I congratulate you all today! It is impossible to be sad and sad today, I wish you all fun and joy! There is fun and laughter in this hall today. There will be various dances and competitions. Success and various surprises await everyone who is cheerful and courageous. Presenter (addresses the children)
: Guys, have you seen Santa Claus?
Children (in unison
): No!
Presenter (addressing adults)
: Have you seen Santa Claus? Guys, Santa Claus has a lot of work on New Year's Eve, and he cannot come to our holiday. But he sent us a telegram:
Leading:
Thanks to Grandfather Frost for such a beautiful congratulation!
Well, let's have fun and play without Santa Claus. We will send him photos from our holiday later! Do you agree? Children (in chorus)
: Yes!
Host:
I suggest playing the game “Say a word.”
Game “Say the Word”
It's snowing outside, the holiday is coming... (New Year) The needles glow softly, the coniferous spirit comes from... (Christmas tree) The branches rustle faintly, the beads are bright... (glitter) And the toys swing - flags, stars... (crackers) Threads of colorful tinsel, bells , ... (balloons) Whitebeard and Rednose under the branches ... (Santa Claus) Presenter:
Guys, have any of you heard about the famous “Animal Cycle” What is it?
The cycle is 12 years.
Each year is named after an animal in a specific order .
Host:
Do any of you know what year, according to this calendar, we will be celebrating in a few days? Answer: 2021 will be the year of the White Metal Rat
Leading:
Why were the years named after these particular animals, and why does the Year of the Ox begin after the Year of the Rat, and not the Year of the Dragon?
Children's answers Presenter:
My grandmother told me that once, a long time ago, someone suggested naming the years after twelve animals. Now no one can remember who this wise man was. However, there remains a legend among people that says that the animals themselves agreed to count the years and begin the cycle with the one who first sees the rising sun of the New Year. The camel, believing in the superiority of his height, was less worried than the others and therefore fell asleep just before dawn, and the little mouse, without thinking twice, climbed onto the top of his head and, of course, saw the birth of the New Year before anyone else. Therefore, they begin to count the years from the Year of the Mouse, but not a single year was named after the camel that slept through the sunrise.
Leading:
It’s unlikely, guys, that everything happened exactly like that, but, in any case, the “animal calendar” quickly spread among different peoples, albeit with some variations.
For example, the Year of the Snail is called the Year of the Dragon by the Chinese, Mongols and Japanese, and the Year of the Fish by the Turkmens and Uyghurs, and instead of the Cow and Chicken, the Bull and Rooster appeared. Presenter:
Which of you can now correctly name all the names of the years according to the eastern calendar will receive a sweet prize.
Answer: Rat, bull, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. Host:
Well, since you know the eastern animal calendar so well, I offer you the game “Zodiac Signs”
Game "Zodiac Signs"
Props: cards with animal horoscopes by year.
5-6 people take part in the game.
They all receive cards with a horoscope. The presenter names a certain year, and the players, watching on the card, depict this animal. The winner is the player who quickly orients himself and more accurately shows the image of the animal, its voice, and facial expressions. If there are many people who want to play, you can repeat the game with a second set of participants. Host:
Guys, while you were playing the game, I composed a telegram in response to Santa Claus. I just had one problem: I couldn’t find the adjectives. Help me please. Name any 16 adjectives.
The text of the resulting telegram is read out. It turns out to be a very funny text. Leading:
The lights on the tree are bright, the New Year is coming.
What gifts and gifts will Santa Claus bring us? (in a bag)
A magic staff and a bag of gifts are the most important attributes of Santa Claus.
Without them, he never appears at the holiday. I’ll tell you a secret that grandpa’s bag is not simple - it’s bottomless! In any case, Santa Claus never lets anyone near the bag, he only takes gifts out of it himself. He does this without looking, but he always guesses who is waiting for what gift. Host:
I suggest you play the game “Santa Claus’s Bag”
Game "Santa Claus' Bag"
Props: a small Santa Claus bag, cards with forfeits and an empty bail box. Everyone sits in a circle and places an empty bag in the center. Leading:
what
you have in it , ok, say a word and give the deposit.
Everyone takes turns naming words that end in -ok
.
For example, “I put a ball in the bag,”
etc.
Anyone who makes a mistake or can’t figure out what to say puts any deposit in the box - a scarf, pencil, hairpin, chip or other personal item, and temporarily does not take part in the game any further. When all the players make one mistake, the presenter says: “Whose deposit will I get, what should I do?”
first takes out the deposit, and then from the bag a card with the task.
After this, each participant “redeems” his pledge, cheerfully fulfilling what he got. If there are many children, then deposits can be combined in groups of 2-3. Words for reference: bull, felt boot, collar, son, smoke, pot, glove compartment, tank, east, castle, pupil, castle, hammer, scoop, spine, ham, ham, peephole, bell, sock, scarf, breeze, felt, boxes, bun, shoe, hair, voice, fork, cap, corner, whistle, comb, cockerel, puppy, kitten, duckling, chicken, pie, etc.
