Interesting activities and games at day camp. Quizzes for summer camp Quizzes for schoolchildren in summer camp

How to make the summer holidays that children spend in leisure centers, tourist or sports camps comfortable and interesting? How to entertain children, how to introduce them to each other and help them get comfortable in a new environment? Of course, with the help of general squad activities, events, competitions and a variety of fun and educational entertainment. Therefore, before the start of the season, it would be a good idea for counselors and organizers of children’s recreation to replenish their “game bank.”

Proposed games and competitions for children's summer holidays This is a selection of interesting new and popular old entertainment, mainly of a creative and educational nature, ideal for organizing children's leisure in the summer.

1. Educational creative game "Word Game".

The game is suitable for children starting from the youngest school age. The children are lined up in a circle. Their hands should touch so that the right palm of one child lies on top of the left palm of the other.

The game begins with a counting rhyme, after which the presenter names the area of ​​reality from which the word should be named:

We will find words everywhere: in the sky and in the water,
On the floor, on the ceiling, on the nose and on the arm.
Haven't you heard this? No problem, let's play word...

Leading: We are looking for words in...the sky!

Here the children, in a circle, at a fast pace, must name something in the sky: bird, plane, cloud, sun. When calling a word, a person claps his palm on the palm of his neighbor.

If one of the children is confused and does not name the word or names it incorrectly, then he drops out of the game. At the same time, the presenter begins reading the counting rhyme again, and the topic changes.

2. Creative game "Miracle-Yudo-fish-whale".

Announce to the children that now they will draw an animal, but not a simple animal, but a fantasy one. To do this, divide the children into teams of three and give each group a sheet of paper folded in thirds like an accordion.

The first member of each team must draw the head of any animal - it cannot be named to anyone. The presenter must also ensure that the rest of the team does not see what the first player is drawing. Why can you build partitions from books on the table? Having wrapped the part of the sheet with the drawn animal’s head inside, the sheet is passed to the second player. He draws the body of any animal; the third needs to complete the drawing with “legs”, i.e. paws, flippers, hooves, claws, etc.

As soon as the drawing is finished, invite the teams to unfold the sheets of paper and look at their miracle animal. Be sure to present these masterpieces to the rest of the teams, and then ask them to work together to come up with names for the resulting “monsters.” A sweet prize will be awarded for the best name.

A good ending to the game will be an exhibition of the created drawings.

3. Game "Neither be.., nor me.."

Many people have probably heard that about those who do not answer the question posed they say that he is: “neither be nor me.” The essence of this creative play is that you have to say your “be” and “me”, and your opponents have to guess what you meant.

So, the guys are divided into equal teams and receive a card with the name of a fairy tale, an excerpt from which they must tell, using only the first syllables. For example. The fairy tale “Turnip” will look like this: “By de re. You re bo pre bo. You're here, but you can't..." The second team guesses and offers its option.

This is not so much a competition as just a reason to have fun (it’s better to stock up on more cards with fairy tales, the kids will probably want to repeat this fun again).

4. "Speed ​​Mail".

This kind of fun is best done at the very beginning of the season; it makes it possible to emphasize the names of all participants in a playful way. In preparation for it, the organizer needs to draw two large posters with the names: Vitya, Nina, Sasha, Klava, Daria, Yulia, Sonya, Kira, Slava, Borya. But you need to write these names in such a way that you can later cut them “in half.” We place sheets of name endings on two tables near the finish line. We cut the rest of both leaves into strips so that the beginning of each name falls on a separate card: Vi, Ni, Sa, Kla, Dar, Yu, So, Ki, Sla, Bo. These cards will be the “letters” that the zealous “high-speed mail” workers must deliver to the addressee.

We recruit three or four little postmen for each team and give them a shoulder bag containing cards with the beginning of the names mentioned. Their task is to quickly go to the table, open their bag, take out the first card they come across and correctly attach it to the end of the name written on the sheet. Then the child returns to his team and gives the bag to the next player.

For quickly completing a task, the team receives three points. Then points are awarded one for each correctly formed name. The winners of this dating game are determined by the total points.

5. Fun game"Cuckoo, sing in your ear!"

The organizer of the game explains the condition, to whom he will unexpectedly (!) point with his hand (or pointer), must quickly show his answer not with words, but with movement, and everyone shouts in unison: “That’s it!”

How are you living?
- Like this! (you can show your thumb)
- How are you swimming?
- Like this! (show swimmer's movements)
- Do you look?
- Like this!
-Are you running?
- Like this!
- Are you waiting for lunch?
- Like this!
- Are you waving after me?
- Like this!
- Do you sleep in the morning?
- Like this!
- How are you being naughty?
- Like this!

7. "Little Princes and Princesses".

First, it’s worth telling the children a little about the Little Prince and his wonderful travels to different planets with such funny and even sad inhabitants as the King, Rose and Lamb. It would be very nice for general cultural development to show children reproductions of Exupery’s original drawings and clarify that the writer not only made up his characters out of his head and recorded them in words, but also drew them.

Then you can invite the children to be “authors” themselves and each come up with their own planet with special inhabitants. And then, like little princes, travel on them. To do this, they will need inflated balloons and colorful markers. Let the presenter show how you can draw different inhabitants of this small blue, pink or green planet on a ball using felt-tip pens. Moreover, warn the guys that these will not necessarily be people: you can use your imagination and come up with some new creatures.

We do not recommend giving children time limits, as this will reduce the level of creativity. Give the kids the opportunity to express themselves in a calm environment, and then ask everyone to tell about their inhabitants.
