Lesson at the dacha for a 7 year old child. Games for children outside in the summer: a large selection

Message quote

1.Music Wall
Musical wall with all sorts of rattles and noisemakers. Old lids, pots, tin cans, spoons and any objects that can be used to make sounds will be used.

2. Water Wall
Using all kinds of containers and hoses, a wall is built along which water can be directed so that it passes through all obstacles.

3.Outdoor Mud Kitchen
Many have probably already forgotten how in childhood they baked pies from the ground and made salads from leaves and flowers. Make a small kitchen in the village/dacha for your children in the yard, and they themselves will figure out what to treat you for lunch)

4.Natural Playground
Wood, saw cuts, stumps and all sorts of sticks are always useful on the playground. With all this you can create a city with bridges, a table with chairs and many, many, many other things.

5.Tree Branch Blocks
Cut down small trees will make a wonderful construction set!

6. Twister on the grass. Circles are painted over the stencil with spray paint.

7. Bean Bag Balls Game
From multi-colored balloons you can make balls stuffed with lentils, beans or peas.

They are thrown at specially made "targets"
but it’s much easier to buy, for example, flower pallets and make targets from them. The further and smaller the plate, the more points for hitting.

My daughter (and me too) likes to simply throw pebbles into containers of different sizes filled with water

8. Petanque
Petanque game! The goal of the game is to throw your ball as close as possible to the small wooden cochonette ball. Everything is quite simple, but this makes it no less exciting and exciting.
Children are delighted because their results sometimes exceed those of adults)

9. Road Maze
Quite by accident, we ended up with such a labyrinth road, drawn with water from a watering can!) My daughter asks me to make this path for her so she can ride a bike along it or play tag. For very little ones you can make a path

make it simpler and offer to just follow it.

And this is a maze of stones that we have already seen.

If there is an opportunity to put pebbles on the site for paths, then they can be made very interesting.

10. Outdoor shower made of PVC pipes.

You can build a whole car and bike wash!

11. You can also make chairs from such pipes.

12. Water bombs
You can simply leave or play a game where the players gradually move away from each other, and the team or player who was able to catch the bomb from the farthest distance wins.

13. Water balloon pinata

14. Sponge ball

15. Foam party.
You can take tear-free baby foam or shaving cream.

16. Bubble Party.
Don't forget about soap bubbles! But suggest making them using various kitchen utensils - funnels, strainers, fly swatters)))

And the solution itself can be made like this:
For 100 gr. Take 300 ml dishwashing detergent. boiled water and 50 ml. glycerin (sold at the pharmacy). Stir everything well and the solution is ready.
To get a lot of small soap bubbles, you need to blow them out of several straws.

You can also draw with bubbles!
You just need to add paint or food coloring to any soap-foaming solution, bubble up more foam and place paper on top of it.

You can make postcards, envelopes from this paper, and if you draw only blue and then add fish, you will get an ocean.

17. Jungle Theme.
In any country house or village you can create a real jungle. You can plant soft toys of tigers, panthers, monkeys on the branches of apple, plum and cherry trees, and zebras and giraffes can graze in currant bushes.

You can hang homemade vines, streamers, or just strips of light translucent green fabric.

You can turn into some kind of animal or become a brave explorer.

18. Pup Tent.
Be sure to make a tent or marquee.

19. Games
And hiding in the shade of the tent you can play board games!

20. Nature Hunt
Kids can be invited to collect lizards (or anything else) that have scattered across the lawn especially for this occasion.

And another fascinating and educational fun is a kind of natural “sorter”. It can be made in the form of a container where you need to collect the items shown in the pictures.

Or you can print out special sets of pictures on paper and check boxes when you find the desired trace, leaf or insect. Then it would be nice to equip the young naturalist with a magnifying glass.

21. Fairy Houses
From any available material you can make fairy houses, for example, for fairies.

22. Flower fairies.
Draw sketchy figures on a piece of paper, and then glue various petals and leaves to them. You can not only make fairies, but also houses, animals and everything that your imagination allows.
Do you remember how, as children, we used to stick flower petals on our nails?)) But only this year I learned that you can make amazing false eyelashes from a bell!! They need to be salivated and glued to the eyelid. Everything is especially good

sticks after eating candy))

23. Herbarium
And, of course, the herbarium! Show your child how diverse vegetable world. You can choose a piece of the garden and see how many different plants there are in such a small space.

24. Flower Press
By the way, you can dry flowers and leaves not only under a stack of heavy books, but also simply by placing them between cardboard boxes and tightening them with rubber bands.

And from already dried flowers you can make paintings, bookmarks, postcards, inscriptions, and even decorate some objects using the decoupage technique.

25. Sunprinting
Heliography - solar drawing. This is done using special photosensitive paper. I don’t know where to get one like this, to be honest)

26. Hammered Flower and Leaf Prints
Ask the children to draw a colorful bouquet, but without the help of paints and brushes, but with a hammer! They will be very surprised))

To do this, you need to put some flower or leaf on watercolor paper, cover it with a paper towel and tap firmly over the entire surface. Many plants have enough of their own dye to produce bright colors.

30. Butterfly Observatory
You can arrange a small exhibition of live butterflies. To do this you will need 2 disposable plates and a net.

31. Chalk Drawings
We recently discovered that it turns out very beautifully if you draw with wet crayons, it’s better to hold them flat and layer the colors on top of each other. For example, blue + pink, yellow + green + orange, etc.

32. Kites
Fly kites!
But, if there is no suitable area nearby without wires and other obstacles for the kite to fly, then you can make one like this manual option, which is also quite fun)

33. Beach Bag
Beach bag made of citrus mesh.

34. Walnut Boats
Boats made from walnut shells.
You can run them either in a lake or in a basin in the yard. We sometimes launch these boats in a sink with water while we brush our teeth and wash our face)

You can also use cups from egg cartons. To attach the sails (by the way, they can be “laminated” with wide tape so as not to get wet), it is better to use wax or floating plasticine.
Well, don’t forget about ordinary paper boats)

35. Beach Art
On the beach you can lay out all kinds of figures and mosaics from pebbles.

36. Pebble Tower
You can also build small towers from pebbles. You will need concentration and patience, and absolutely any pebbles are suitable for this.

A game of tic-tac-toe (or rather pebbles-shells)) right on the beach towel

41. On A Roll Beach Game
You can come up with many variations of this game on the beach, but the point is to dig holes (or bury molds) and roll a ball (a tennis ball, for example) into them. The most difficult thing is to get into the distant holes without falling into

other.

42. Sundial
You can simply stick a stick in and note how the shadow moves, or you can do it according to all the rules - then the angle of inclination of the rod to the horizon should be equal to the latitude of the area.

43. Sand Combs

50. Summer book

By the way, while walking down the street or standing in a queue, when the child has nothing special to do, you can play next games:
1. Find what I see.
Invite your child to guess what you wished for from what is in front of your eyes.
For example, a red car, a bicycle or pigeons.

2. Who is more interesting?
Take turns listing interesting and inconspicuous things you see.

Speaking of alphabets, try to find letters or numbers in the surrounding objects! Older children will definitely love this, especially if you let them photograph everything themselves)

And so that all the summer impressions are not forgotten, we need to preserve them.

59. Memorykeeping Crafts
If your child already knows how to write, then invite him to make a summer diary, which can be supplemented with different blades of grass, drawings or photographs. Or you can keep such a diary together.

Another option is to save all the little things (pebbles, shells, tickets, souvenirs) and put them in bags or simply glue them with hot glue onto the hard pages of a homemade diary.

But you can store memories not only on paper, but also in jars

60.Memorykeeping Board
Or you can just make a collage of all your summer memories. Either on a board with rubber bands or in the form of a picture.

To be honest, holding such a holiday is quite difficult. Firstly, having found themselves on a picnic, the last thing children want to do is play in an organized manner - everyone has their own interesting thing to do. Secondly, organization children's party in nature requires certain physical characteristics. For example, a loud voice :-).

If you still decide to gather guests for a picnic and plan entertainment program, without having the temperament of a clown and the skills of an experienced animator, use my selection of competitions.

I chose only those games and competitions in nature that are easiest to organize (most of them can be carried out with a number of participants from 4 people).

There are only 20 ideas so far, but I plan to add more interesting competitions in nature in this article, so over time there will be many more!

Throwers and throwers :)

I like this competition for its simplicity and objectivity in identifying the winner. It's easy to determine who hit the target large quantity once.

Options:

At a distance of 10 child steps, hit a tree trunk with a cone. Each person has, say, 10 attempts.
Use a stick to knock down some structure made of dry twigs (let's call it a “forest bast”).
Place an empty pan (basin, bucket) at a distance of several steps. We compete in accuracy by throwing small rubber balls, toys or the same cones. If there is no empty container, we simply look for a hole in the ground.
Tie the rope to a horizontal tree branch so that its end reaches the ground. We tie a small bag with a ball (cones, toys) to the lower end of the rope, as long as it is some kind of harmless “weight”. The players take the “weight” in their hands and move a few steps to the side. You need to shoot down objects standing at some distance from the center. Here is the drawing.
Another option previous game. You need to choose a leader who will swing the “pendulum”, and things (bottles, juice boxes, sticks, pebbles, toys) need to be folded in the center. Players need to run up and pick up the item before the “pendulum” returns.
Make a fishing rod. Tie a rope with a weight at the end to a 1.5-2 meter stick. With this weight you need to knock down small objects at a distance slightly greater than the length of the stick, swinging the rope.

Catch-up games

Bear

Lay out the toys, pots, bags and things that you brought for a picnic in the clearing. Place a bear in the center of this composition, at a distance of 5-7 steps, draw a line on the ground, behind which there will be a “house”. The presenter shouts: “The bear has woken up!” Children must save property and put it behind the line, and the bear can only catch the one who has nothing in his hands (at the moment when the child returns for things from the safe line). The one who collects the most things wins. And the player who finds himself in the bear’s clutches becomes a bear.

Catch-up “Short Legs”

Participants in the game will need to catch up and run away with an empty plastic bottle held between their knees.

Paints

The players line up. The presenter turns away and moves away 5 steps.

- Knock Knock?
- Who's there?
- I don’t know myself.
- Why did you come?
- For paint.
- For which one?
- For the blue one!

Everyone who has this color on their clothes holds on to this color with their hands and remains in place, the rest run away from the leader. The one who was caught drives next.

Fights

Balloon fight

This game will be fun in nature. Tie small balls to the players' right ankle (a rope no more than 30 cm). Only 2 players participate in the duel. Hands are not involved, they need to be clasped behind your back. The winner is the one who manages to burst the winner's balloon with his foot. The one who wins gets a new opponent with a ball on his leg. This continues until one player remains with a whole ball on his leg.

Knight Tournament

If you have a relatively flat and not thick log, you can fight with long thin balls. The winner must stand on the beam.

Comic games

Game "Steam Train with Obstacles"

Stage 1 of the game.

Between the trees at a height of 30-40 cm, stretch the rope in zigzags. All participants of the holiday stand in the train one after another, holding the waist. To the music, the first player begins to move in small steps, choosing a difficult route. You need to step over a rope, walk around a tree, and so on. It's just fun, especially if there are more than five participants.

Stage 2 of the game.

One of the players is taken aside and tightly blindfolded with a scarf. At this time, the rope needs to be removed and brought to the beginning of the route. And now the presenter tells you how to raise your leg, how many steps to take, where to turn. The player follows the commands, thinking that the rope remains in place and diligently overcomes non-existent obstacles. Try it, it's fun!

Relay races:

Shashlik

Best suited for an autumn picnic as it requires fallen leaves. As usual, we divide the children into teams. We collect leaves in advance. Determine the running distance (no more than 6-7 meters). At the end of the route, provide each team with a skewer (a stick on which to string a leaf). The player runs, strings the piece of paper onto a stick, and returns to the team. The winner is the team that, naturally, will have the most luxurious kebab by the time the funny children's song ends.

Jerboa

A distance of 5-7 meters and back must be overcome, holding the ball tightly between your knees. At the same time, you can take cones, nuts or small pebbles into the “mink”. The winning team is revealed again at the end of the song.

Ember

We divide the children into two teams. We collect small pebbles or cones according to the number of participants. Small juice boxes will also work. You need to not just run and put a coal in the fire, but move, throwing the object slightly upward. This is a coal, it burns your hands! The team that finishes its fire the fastest wins.

Firefighters

A game for hot weather. Each team member has empty disposable cups. Teams need to be lined up with their right side to the direction of movement.

The last player in the line must have a full glass of water. On command, he pours water into his neighbor’s empty glass as carefully as possible, runs and becomes the first (necessarily next to the previous participant). It is the turn of the one who now has a full glass of water. He also pours it over to his neighbor. This is how you need to get to your goal. The team with the most water left at the end of the relay wins.

On the Zavalinka

Everyone was running around, tired. We sat down on a log...

Time for sedentary games and competitions, which, by the way, are also very fun.

Conductor-trainer

The host divides the guests into groups (if there are few children, each gets a separate role). Let frogs, cows, dogs, cats, pigs, ducks, bees, sheep, and so on appear at your holiday.

They will have to sing a song for the birthday boy to the melody of “ Happy Birthday to You." First, everyone sings a line. The conductor points with his baton, and...

Kva-kva-kva-kva woof-woof

Oink-oink-oink-oink meow-meow

Quack-quack-quack-quack zhu-zhu-zhu

Mu-mu-mu-mu beee-beee….

And now all together!

The main thing is that there are no other vacationers nearby, since the choir turns out to be very solemn :-).

The fairy tale has come to life

Let's take the simplest children's fairy tale. All guests get roles. Those who lack the main characters become trees, sun, clouds, wind.

“Masha and the Bear” is best suited for the forest. Just think about who you will give the role of the stump, because a bear will sit on it!

Crocodile on a picnic

One of the participants gestures to show some item needed in nature, the rest guess. Matches, firewood, barbecue meat, a thermos, a backpack and a pump look fun in this pantomime.

Scarecrow garden

Summer is a small life. And even more so in the summer with children. And we must live this life with dignity - cheerfully and creatively. In the countryside, at the dacha and at sea, ideas collected from all over the world will help you.

1. Musical wall.

All sorts of rattles and noisemakers. Old lids, pots, tin cans, spoons and any objects that can be used to make sounds will be used.

2. Water wall.

Using all kinds of containers and hoses, a wall is built along which water can be directed so that it passes through all obstacles.

3. Outdoor kitchen.

Many have probably already forgotten how in childhood they baked pies from the earth and crumbled salads from plantain. Make a small kitchen for your children, and they themselves will come up with what to treat you for lunch.

4. Homemade designer.

Small blocks will make a wonderful construction set.

5. "Twister" on the grass.

All you have to do is apply multi-colored circles on a stencil with spray paint and you can have fun.

6. Accuracy games.

You can use colorful balloons to make balls stuffed with lentils, beans or peas.

And then buy, for example, flower pallets and make targets with numbers. The further and smaller the plate, the more points for hitting.

7. Labyrinths.

Quite by accident we ended up with such a maze road, drawn with water from a watering can. Now my daughter is asking me to make this path for her so she can ride her bike along it or play tag. For very young children, you can make the path simpler and invite them to walk along it.

And this is a maze of stones that we have already seen.

8. Stone paths with patterns.

If there is an opportunity to lay a path on the site, then know: decorating it with a child is a separate pleasure.

9. Outdoor shower made of PVC pipes.

Perhaps not everyone can make this, but if they succeed, the craftsmen will receive a prize - happy and wet children.

You can build a whole car and bike wash!

10. Water bombs.

You can simply leave or play a game where the players gradually move away from each other, and the team or player who was able to catch the bomb from the farthest distance wins.

11. Piñata made from water balloons.

A piñata is a Mexican toy made of papier-mâché - quite large and filled with surprises (candies, nuts). According to tradition, a blindfolded child must break it with a stick.

12. Foam party.

For such a holiday you will need baby foam “without tears” or shaving cream.

13. Soap bubbles.

Invite children to make bubbles using various kitchen utensils - funnels, strainers, fly swatters.

And the solution itself can be made like this: for 100 ml of dishwashing detergent, take 300 ml of water and 50 ml of glycerin (it is sold at the pharmacy). Stir everything well and the solution is ready.

You can also draw with bubbles! You just need to add paint or food coloring to any soap solution, bubble up more foam and place paper on top of it.

What to do at the dacha for a 2-3 year old child

The most useful and interesting activities for children of this age - games with sand. In order for the games to bring maximum pleasure, be safe and interesting, it is necessary to create a special corner that will be equipped with everything necessary: sand, pebbles, shovels, buckets, etc.

Games with sand can be very diverse, we list some of them:

"Footprints"
Offer to walk along the paved paths with your palms and fingers (grouped in 2, 3, 4, 5) leaving traces. Imagine with your child (whose footprints are these?).
"Fingerprints"
Make prints of fists, knuckles, and fingers. Try to find similarities between patterns and objects in the surrounding world.
"Collect mushrooms"
“You take the basket to the forest,
Pick mushrooms for me there.
You will be surprised, my friend:
“There are so many mushrooms around here!”
Ryzhiki, volushki
Find me at the edge of the forest!”
One by one, the child puts his hand in the sand and looks for mushrooms. The number of mushrooms changes with each game.
. "Bread"
Flour was kneaded into the dough,
And from the dough we made
Pies and buns,
Sweet cheesecakes!
The child squeezes and unclenches the sand with his fists (“kneads”). Then he randomly sculpts the products.
"Mystery"
Bury a toy in the sand. The child must find it and find out by touch: what is it or who is it?
"Secrets"
An adult and a child take turns preparing “secrets” using various items(candy wrappers, buttons, sparkles, flowers, etc.) on the surface of the sand. And then the child is asked to take turns finding the “secret” using only a feather or a thin stick.
Drawing on the sand
You can draw in the sand different ways, using a stick, water or improvised means.
What to do at the dacha for a 4,5,6 year old child

Children of this age also love to play with sand, however, their games are much more varied. Water games and creative fun are also added. Children of this age can be entrusted with some household chores: watering, wiping the table, etc.
Waterfall
For this game, you will need any toys that can be used to pour water: a watering can, a small bowl, a small jug or a simple plastic glass. The baby draws water into a container and, pouring it out, creates a noisy waterfall with splashes. Please pay attention to the crumbs that the higher the waterfall, the louder it “makes noise”.
Water takes shape
For this game you will need: an inflatable ball, a rubber glove, a plastic bag, a plastic cup. The baby fills the ball, glove or bag with water using a plastic cup. Parents should draw his attention to the fact that water takes the shape of the object into which it is poured.
Drowning - not drowning
Take objects from different materials: metal, wood, plastic, rubber, fabric, paper, washcloth. Lowering various objects in turn, the child observes whether they are immersed in the water and what happens to them.
Little fisherman
Small objects are thrown into a pool or basin. These will be fish. The child is given a “fishing rod” - a ladle with a long handle, with which he will catch fish. You can also catch fish with a net - a colander or sieve is suitable for this.

Outdoor activities are a great alternative to gadgets. Live communication and interaction skills with peers are something that is useful to learn at any age. Let's remember the games that you can play in the yard, those that are familiar to more than one generation of children. Dear adults, take the initiative! Remember what you played as a child and tell your children about it. Games are like fairy tales, they need to be passed down from generation to generation.

polzavred.ru

In the yard, at the camp, on a hike, at the dacha - wherever a group of children gathers, you can organize team or collective games: calm or very active, on the grass or in a gazebo, with or without attributes. We are sharing a LARGE list of outdoor games for kids to play in the summer. We have chosen the MOST POPULAR ones, which have been tested by more than one generation of children and still have not lost their relevance. We are sure you can continue this list - and your children will have enough entertainment for the whole summer!

1. Ring ring

www.kis-brys.ru

A leader is chosen, and everyone else sits opposite him. As a “ring” you need to find a small object: a button, a pebble, a ring, etc. Players fold their palms into a boat shape. The “ring” is hidden in the presenter’s “boat” and he runs his hands over the slightly open “boats” of the players, imperceptibly tossing the ring to one of them. The main thing is to do everything very professionally, like an actor, so that none of those sitting would guess at what exact moment the “ring” from the hands of the presenter migrated to the palms of the lucky player. The one who has the ring must also maintain intrigue... After all the players go through the procedure, the presenter says: “Ring, ring, go out onto the porch.” At this moment, the one who actually has the “ring” must quickly get up and run forward so that the others do not have time to catch him. If he succeeds, he becomes the new presenter.

Warm childhood memories of this popular game They take you back to a time when rings on girls’ fingers were very rare; holding someone else’s ring in your hands is already cool in itself! In this simple game Can be played with both babies and children school age, it is almost universal for both boys and girls. A small machine can also be used as a “ring”, for that matter.

2. Kalim-bam-ba

All players are divided into two teams. The players of each team join hands and stand in a chain facing their opponents at a distance of 10-12 meters. The teams begin to shout out the following words in turn:
- Kalim-bam-ba!
- What is a servant for?
- Sew the sleeves!
— To what numbers?
- For fifths and tenths, we bring Masha (Olya, Tanya, Sveta, Sasha, Andryukha...) here!

The one whose name was called runs towards the opposing team and tries to unclasp the opponents’ hands. If he succeeds, he can take into his team any of the two guys who unclasped their hands, usually the one who is stronger. If it is not possible to break the chain, then he goes to the opposing team. They play until one or two people remain in one of the teams (as agreed).

An analogue of this game is “Chains”. The dialogue could be like this:
- The chains are forged, break us!
-Which of us?

Perhaps remember how “Ali Baba, sew on the sleeves”:
- Ali Baba!
- Why a servant?
- Sew on the sleeves!
- Which sides?
… etc.

Be sure to teach your children to play this game. She teaches us to stand for each other and act united.

3. Returners

To play you will need a whistle. At the request of the leader, the children line up. At a signal, players scatter in different directions within the specified territory, run around the clearing, dance, and take various poses. When the whistle blows, the players must return to their original place and line up again. You can, for example, count to three: those who do not have time are eliminated. The game is repeated 3 times.

The idea is good for camp teachers when they need to quickly organize children and bring them all together.

4. Frog

Players stand opposite the wall (usually the end wall of a house where there are no windows or doors) one after another (in a column). A mark is drawn on the wall with chalk. Usually they start from 1-1.5 meters.

You need to throw the ball above this line and while it is flying back from the rebound, have time to jump over it. The ball must hit the ground and pass between the player's legs. If successful, the player goes to the end of the queue. If during a jump the ball is touched with their feet or they are unable to jump over it, the player goes to the end of the line, receiving one letter from the word “frog”. When everyone jumps once, the mark is set higher and the jumping starts again. The game continues until one of the players collects the entire word “l-i-g-u-sh-k-a”.

To be honest, in our childhood we called everything by its proper name - “goat”. Perhaps it is under this code word that this game and the hysteria of your grandmother-neighbor will emerge in your memory, who was hit with a ball against the wall by the restless children of the yard all day long.

Another version of this game (simplified) is suitable for younger children. The principle is the same, with the only difference that the one who could not jump over the ball stands against the wall. Over time, there will be a lot of such “fines”. Their task is to try to catch the ball before it hits the wall. If it works, the penalty box gets into line and continues the game, and the one who was throwing the ball at that moment takes his place at the wall. The game ends when everyone except one (the winner) is at the wall.

5. The sea is agitated once...

pln-pskov.ru

The presenter turns his back to the players and says: “The sea worries once, the sea worries two, the sea worries three, the sea figure freezes in place!” The rest at this time move chaotically and depict the movement of waves with their hands. On the word “Freeze!” all the children freeze in their planned positions. The presenter turns around, approaches any of the players and touches him with the words “Otomi!” The selected player must show the intended figure in motion so that it can be guessed. If the leader guesses the piece, he goes to the next player and continues to guess. The one whose figure is not solved becomes the new leader.

By the way, the figures do not have to be nautical; choose and voice any theme before the start of the game.

6. Predators and Herbivores

A predator is chosen from among the players: at will or by lot. The rest are herbivores. The predator draws a large circle (about 2-2.5 m in diameter). During the game, he needs to catch as many herbivores as possible and put them in his lair - in a circle. Captives can leave the circle only in one case - if one of the herbivores walking in the wild touches their hand arm's length caught. The task of a predator is not easy: it needs not only to catch new herbivores, but also not to allow the “free” to release those already captured. The game ends when all the herbivores are in the circle, or all are free.

7. Cossacks-Robbers

Participants are divided into 2 teams and determine the territory for the game. The robbers, secretly from the Cossacks, come up with a password word. During the game, the Cossacks must try to find out this secret word.

The game begins with the Cossacks turning away and closing their eyes. At this time, the Robbers must run away and hide somewhere in a secluded place. When fleeing, Robbers draw arrows on the road, curbs or trees, indicating the exact direction of their movement, sometimes placing arrows in different directions to confuse their tracks.

While the Robbers run away and hide, the Cossacks outline a small area with chalk - the prison. After 10-15 minutes, the Cossacks set off in search of the Robbers. The Cossack, who caught the Robber, takes him to prison and tries to find out the password using comic methods in the form of tickling. Rogues who are not caught can attack the prison to free the captured crew member. The Cossacks will win if they find out the Robbers' secret word or catch them all.

Eh, Childhood! With this game, we knew all the “nooks and crannies” in the vicinity and within the radius that mom could use. One of my favorite games, and I never get tired of it!

8. Hide and seek

godkultury.rf

A presenter is appointed, and a place is agreed upon where the players can “get caught.” The driver turns away, closes his eyes and counts to... (as agreed). The rest are hiding at this time. Having counted, the water goes in search. If he finds someone, he runs to the appointed place and “knocks” him: “Knock, knock for...” (say a name). The one who is found may try to outrun the water and get caught by himself. In this case, he is not considered caught. The game ends when everyone is caught. The new presenter becomes the one who was “caught” the very first.

The good thing about the game is that even kids can participate. If desired, you can play indoors.

A more complicated version is “Twelve Sticks”. You need a board and 12 sticks. The board is placed on a stone to form a swing. 12 sticks are laid out on one end, and one of the players kicks the other end so that the sticks fly apart. While the water collects sticks, everyone hides. Next - according to the rules of ordinary hide and seek, only you need to “knock” with a stick in your hands on a board.

9. Pioneerball

22-91.ru

A ball, a field with a net or a high crossbar in the middle and 2 teams with an equal number of players (optimally 6-7 people). Players take positions on the playing field on both sides of the net. The game begins with the ball being served. The serve is made from the corner of the field. The main thing is to throw hard enough so that the ball flies over the net to the opponent's side. He didn’t get stuck in the net, didn’t fall in his own half, didn’t fly over the line, but ended up on the field on the opponent’s side. Next - depending on your luck. If your opponents do not return, the point and the right to the next serve are yours again. If the ball catches on the net, the serving team receives a losing point. If the ball is touched or dropped in your own half of the field, then a loss point is counted.

The participant or members of the other team must catch the ball and throw it back over the net. You are allowed to take no more than 3 steps across the field with the ball in your hands. A ball that flies out of the opponent's field and is not touched in flight allows the opponent to serve. The game lasts up to 15 goals.

Unlike volleyball, this is a simpler option and can be done by those who are younger and weaker.

What was also interesting about pioneer ball was the teams’ movements around the court - that is, after each point the team earned, the team players certainly changed places, the movement proceeded clockwise, and thus the server also changed. The whole team cared about the main thing - that everyone in it could serve, and, of course, catch.

A game of pioneer ball, as a rule, goes up to 25 points, and points are awarded to a team if the ball, after the opponent’s serve, fell outside the playing area without hitting the players of the receiving team. If this happened, the opponent received a point.

10. Edible-inedible

A ball and a sense of humor are what you need for this game. The host throws the ball to the player and names something edible or inedible. The player’s task is to catch the ball only on edible items and discard inedible items. If a player catches something inedible, he himself takes the place of the leader. Sometimes it turns out very funny.

11. Classics

On the asphalt, cells with numbers or a snail are drawn with chalk. The player must throw a pebble (bat) on the number 1, jump with one foot on the square with the pebble, bend down, pick up the stone and then continue jumping over all the numbers to the end. It is important not to lose your balance or step on the line. The other one does the same. Next, the first player throws the pebble again, this time on the number 2. Now the player needs to immediately jump from the start to the cell with this number. This continues with all the written numbers. If a thrown pebble or the jumper’s foot hits the line, then you must skip the move and try again after the opponent from the place where you made a mistake. The first one to complete all the numbers in this way wins.

The traditional hopscotch field consists of 10 numbered rectangles arranged in a column, pairs 3-4 and 6-7 are drawn side by side so that you can become two feet, a semicircle with 9-10 is at the exit for turning in the opposite direction. This is perhaps the most famous option, but there are others.

A type of classics that is not known to everyone is “Name Classics”.

A field is drawn. The first player jumps back and forth on one leg, stepping into each rectangle. If he does this without errors, he can write his name on any rectangle. If he makes a mistake, it is the other player's turn. The idea is that you need to jump over rectangles named after other players, but you can stand on your own (where your name is written) with both feet. The game continues when all the rectangles are occupied, but now if someone makes a mistake, he leaves the game. The game ends when one player remains - the winner.

12. I know five...

The game teaches you to perform several tasks at the same time and concentrate your attention. You need to hit the ball on the ground with the words: “I know five...”. After this, name five names of boys, girls, names of cities, colors, countries, planets. If a player cannot think of a word, he gives the ball to the next player.

13. If you drive more quietly, you will go further

rostovmama.ru

Draw start and finish lines. All participants stand at the start, the driver has his back to them at the finish line. The driver says: “If you drive more slowly, you will go further, stop!”, You can do it at any pace. While he speaks, the participants try to run to him. After the word “stop”, everyone freezes and does not move. If you move, you're out. The participants’ task is to run up to the driver and touch him before he says “stop.”

14. Kitty-kiss-meow

rostovmama.ru

Two people come forward and stand with their backs to each other, the rest of the players sit in one line. The one who faces everyone (the driver) points to one of the participants and asks: “Kiss?” If the player with his back turned answers “Race!”, the driver continues to choose. When the player says “Meow!”, the one who was chosen awaits the “verdict” - what task to complete. The driver asks the one who has his back to him: “What color?” The player names a color and turns to face the others to complete the task with the participant he chose.

Each color involves performing certain actions (which ones are agreed upon in advance). For example, white - two people must go into the entrance together and stay there for 5 minutes. What they do there - history is always silent. Green - three questions that can only be answered “yes”. Usually the questions are tricky, like: “Do you love him?” Red - kiss on the lips, pink - the same thing, but on the cheek, blue - kiss the hand. Yellow - three questions in private. Orange - walk hand in hand, preferably past adults. Purple - step on a foot, etc.

In fact, the game is very good, popular in adolescence, when it is important to learn how to establish relationships with the opposite sex.

15. I was born a gardener

Players choose the name of the flower and say it out loud. The driver, who is also the “gardener,” says a little rhyme: “I was born a gardener, and I’m seriously angry. I’m tired of all the flowers, except…” And he names the name of the flower of one of the players. The participant whose flower was named must respond. If someone hesitates and does not react, or mixes up the name of the colors, he must give away a forfeit (any of his things).

At the end of the game, forfeits are played out. The “gardener” turns away, they take out the thing and ask: “What should this player do?” The “gardener” assigns a task: jump on one leg, sing, squat, recite a poem, etc. The player picks up his item only after completing the “gardener” task.

16. Traffic light

The “traffic light” - the driver - is selected using a counting machine. Two lines are drawn on the road at a distance of approximately 30 m from one another. The players stand in a row behind one line, and the “traffic light” is in the middle of the road, with their backs to the others. “Traffic Light” names any color and turns to face the others. Children must find the named color on themselves (on clothes, shoes, hats). If you find it, then, holding it with your hand, you can safely cross the road. If you don’t have such a color on yourself, you will have to quickly run to another one so that the “traffic light” does not touch the “violator”. You cannot run beyond the boundaries of the road. The one who was caught became a “traffic light” himself.

Another variation of this game is “Song Traffic Light”. The difference is that “traffic light” does not name a color, but any letter. Players must remember and sing lines from the song that begin with the named letter.

17. Pavement sign, stop!

Perhaps some adults will remember this game as “Let's go, let's go,” “Camel.”

The rules are simple. The players stand in a line, and the leader stands with his back to them and slightly in front. At the signal, everyone runs away. The presenter shouts: “Pavement sign, stop!”, everyone freezes. The driver shouts to one player, but does not turn around, i.e. he does not see how far this player is from him. Then he announces how many steps of a certain type are needed so that he can reach this player.

The driver turns and tries to get to the named player using the announced combination of steps. You can only move in a straight line. After taking all the steps, he tries to touch the player. If it works out, the driver and the player change roles. If not, then the whole procedure is repeated from the beginning.

18. Rubber bands

Favorite game of girls of all times. Eh, there were times when every girl carried a couple of meters of elastic in her pocket, and it didn’t matter that it was pulled out of her dad’s family panties).

About 2-2.5 meters of linen elastic were tied into a ring with a knot. Two stretched the elastic band, putting it on their legs, the third jumped, performing various combinations. If I made a mistake, they swapped places. If you did it, the level became more complicated and the whole combination was repeated. And so on until the most difficult level, which was called “up to the neck” - the elastic band was held on the necks. There was also a level “on the ears”, but few people reached it.)

There were different combinations of jumps: “wide” - when two legs are held in an elastic band; “narrow” - rubber band for those holding it on only one leg; three-two-one jump.
