Russian birthday script in Halloween style. Halloween in kindergarten. Scenario for the senior group. Jack-O-Lantern: A Halloween Must-Have for Kids

By the end of the most difficult and “scary” first quarter, my son and his fifth-grader friends somehow got tired. Therefore, we, adults, decided to give the children (5 girls and 7 boys) the opportunity to relieve stress, and organized a home “Funny Horror Party”. Moreover, the overseas holiday “Halloween” is just around the corner.
This time the requirements were:
1. Make a holiday not “for the children,” but “together with the children.” Those. it should be intimate, in the best traditions of home holidays. I repeat: not when “children and an entertaining animator”, but when adults and children have fun together, and the younger and older are united by common ideas and experiences.
2. Spend as little money as possible, and spend as much imagination as possible.
3. Scare children so that it is terribly funny.
Our plan was implemented and adjusted by the organizer of private parties, Ulyana, who also created the decorations, wrote the script, directed and hosted the party.
We decided to start our journey “to the land of horrors” at the entrance. And having gathered the children at the entrance, they blindfolded them in front of the elevator... “Now we will ascend on a fiery chariot to a parallel world...” Ulyana howled in a sepulchral voice, and we entered the elevator.
While they were climbing to the desired floor, the children heard the howling of the wind, the ominous hoot of an eagle owl, the cawing of crows and piercing bird cries. Coming out of the door, we found ourselves in a magical forest and walked through the bushes, urged on by the howl of a wolf. Then they heard the murmur of water and jumped over the stream. (At the same time, water splashed on their faces).
Two more steps - and we almost got stuck in a swamp with frogs, but we safely reached land and opened our eyes in a fairy tale.

For adults, I will say that the necessary sounds were recorded on the player and broadcast through small portable speakers. Potted flowers pretended to be a forest (we have a lot of them in the entrance, and they are quite large), the splashes were organized using a plant sprayer, and the role of a swamp was played by an inflatable mattress spread out in front of the door.
The room greeted the guests with twilight, where in the depths lurked bats, a man-eating spider, a couple of ghosts, and a laid table.

Having gathered behind him, we together filled medical test tubes (we bought them specially) with cherry “blood” from a jug and began the feast.

While they were eating pizza, they entertained each other with competitions for the loudest howl, pitiful cry, scary face, etc. Prizes - gummy beetles, worms, centipedes - went to everyone.
Then it was time to change into costumes and show off to others.

I’ll especially say about clothes: a week before the holiday, we asked each child to come up with an image for themselves. And... try to create it with your mother, using available materials: old clothes, hats, gloves, etc. Moreover, after putting on the costume, the child had to step into the role and tell his “story.” Something like “I’m a Skeleton, I live in a crypt, I’m bored here with bats...”. True, at first we were very afraid that our teenagers would decide that they were already adults for the masquerade. But the idea was received with enthusiasm.

As a result, we heard a lot of wonderful stories and admired each other’s imagination.

Then we moved on to theatrical activities, and held two “Scare Games”: “Pharaoh” and “Haunted House”. In principle, these are games that many of us, adults, played enough of in our Soviet pioneer childhood. But if anyone has forgotten or doesn’t know, I give a description below:
"Pharaoh".
Active frightening - 2 children under the supervision of an adult. The first one (“Pharaoh”) is wrapped in cloth and lies on the sofa. The second (tour guide) calls participants into the room one at a time. Leader (adult) – assists.
The rest are those who are scared.
The “guide” introduces a blindfolded man into the room: “You are in Egypt, in an ancient tomb. This is the Pharaoh’s room (touches the participant’s furniture with his finger). This is the Pharaoh (touches the person lying on the sofa). This is the Pharaoh’s hair. This is the face. This is the nose (They touch everything they talk about). But this is the EYE OF THE PHARAOH! With these words, the participant sharply pokes the participant’s finger into a jar of jelly or cream, hitting his finger in something cold, elastic and sticky, as a rule , squeals. After which they take off his bandage, and he sees what the joke is.
Then the same story is repeated with the next participant. Our experience has shown that the game is not at all outdated, and causes the same great delight as it did 30 years ago.
"Haunted house".
Active frightening - 2-3 children under the supervision of an adult.
The presenter brings the participant into the room. There he is met by a child in a “Ghost” costume and begins to make faces. Naturally, the participant is not too scared, and he looks at what is happening skeptically. But then, from behind, another child suddenly puts his hands on the participant’s shoulders. As a rule, the participant squeals in surprise...
But this is not enough for those who are afraid. And they invite him to blow out the candle flame with a cry. And now the glass is shaking from the squealing :)))))
But the funny thing is that those who are waiting in line outside the door to the room do not know what is happening there. And in horror they think what is SO terrible there.
Then it’s very fun to discuss who was thinking what at those moments….
Our children were simply wildly delighted and asked for more. But we decided not to test our neighbors’ nerves anymore, and moved on to the “Mummy” competition.

Wrapping each other in toilet paper at speed is as old as the hills. But it's fun.

Where would we be without this?

The final chord is “the rise of the mummies.”

And, of course, the competition “Who can collect it all from the carpet the fastest :))))
It was time to move on to tea cakes and telling scary stories.

Yes, yes, the same ones that we, as children, told each other in the pioneer camp around the fire. Our children also had something to tell the world and their parents...

And the 40 minutes allotted for this were sorely not enough. But the party was scheduled for 3 hours, and time was running out.
Therefore, we quickly handed the guests balloons and asked them to blow out all their horrors into them. And then we went down to the street and... got rid of our fears by popping all the balloons.
And in return, as a keepsake of the party, they gave us small glowing souvenirs. But most of all, our faces shone with delight - it turned out really great. And we didn’t want to leave – we all accompanied our wonderful presenter Ulyana to the metro together...

And finally, just a few words about the “Forest Spirit” costume, which my son and I created ourselves.

Catching apples with teeth from a bucket of water

To do this, fill a large, clean container almost completely with water (it's better to use wide, rectangular household containers rather than buckets). Children take turns putting their heads into the container and trying to catch the apple with their teeth. You can't help yourself with your hands. You can set the condition that the first one to catch an apple is the winner, or so that the game has no winners, just that each participant must catch his own apple from the water. The game must take place in the presence of adults.

"Pumpkin Explosion" Halloween game

Do you want Halloween to start with a bang, not a boom? Then make this playful wall decoration. Any partygoer can come up and blow up part of the balloon pumpkin and get some candy out of it.

Tools and materials to create the Pumpkin Explosion game: a piece of foam plastic, 2 meters of burlap or other fabric, double-sided adhesive tape, removable hooks (for hanging the board, but you can just put it on the floor), thirty-five orange balloons, confetti, green paper, ribbon (string), snaps (point pen or darts for big kids), funnel.

1. Make a lid from polystyrene foam and burlap. We attach it to the wall with double-sided tape or removable hooks.

2. Fill the balloons with confetti (using a funnel) and candies. You can leave some balloons empty or add their wishes inside.

3. Inflate the balloons (the pump makes it faster); tie it in a knot. Attach the pumpkin-shaped balls with double-sided tape (you only need a little bit).

4. Cut out the pumpkin root from green paper and secure at the top.

5. Cut the tape and attach pens or a dart arrow to the thumbtack to make them easier to hold (and find if dropped).

"Pumpkin Hitting" Halloween game

Cut out a pumpkin (or two, or three) and line the inside with aluminum foil. Make the top hole large.
Place the pumpkin a couple of meters from the player. Give each player ten to twenty kopecks. Every time a penny hits the pumpkin, you win candy.

"Pumpkin bowling" game for Halloween

Choose a small pumpkin (depending on the age of your guests).

You also need 1- or 2-liter plastic bottles and tape for the bowling starting line. Fill the bottles with a little sand or rice if they tip over too easily. You can also decorate the bottles eerily with markers, stickers, and other art supplies.

"Evil spirits in touch" Halloween game

A game similar to "broken phone". The players sit in a line and whisper to each other a phrase invented by the leader. The participants’ task is to convey the phrase with minimal distortion.
An interesting addition in the spirit of the holiday is that the game takes place in complete darkness and phrases such as: “I’ll eat you,” “Let’s go drink some blood,” “Fresh meat,” “We’ll get to you,” etc. .

"Creepy howl" game for Halloween

Participants take turns emitting a terrible scream (howl, groan). The one who produces the wildest and most terrible scream is declared the winner and receives a prize.

"Will-o'-the-wisp" Halloween game

You will need: flashlight, music.

All participants sit in a circle. The lights in the room are turned off, and one of the players is given a burning flashlight. Soft music should be playing, preferably something creepy. A will-o'-the-wisp (flashlight) is passed from one player to another until the music stops. The player who has Will-o'-the-wisp at that moment is eliminated. The game continues until one player remains, and he wins.

"Mummy" Halloween game

You will need: a large amount of toilet paper.

This is a team game. Players are divided into teams of two. One will play the role of the Mummy, the other will be the Egyptian. At the signal, the Egyptian must wrap the Mummy with toilet paper from head to toe as quickly as possible (the eyes, mouth and nose, of course, remain “free”). The one who made the Mummy faster wins. Just be careful: if the paper tears, the team is out of the game!

Ghost Hunt

You will need: a scarf.

To begin with, you must select a “ghost hunter”. He needs to be blindfolded with a scarf. The rest of the participants are now ghosts, they dance around the hunter, and the hunter tries to grab them. If he succeeds, then the captured ghost moans and laments pitifully. If the hunter recognizes the ghost by its voice and calls its name, they change roles. However, if the hunter does not guess correctly, he must try his luck with another caught player.

Sinister pouch

You will need: a small bag; a number of strange or unpleasant to the touch objects (dried plums, wrinkled carrots, mushroom caps, wet sponges, etc.)

First, you need to put all the items in a bag (preferably before the guests arrive). Participants sit in a circle. The presenter, in a creepy tone, tells a chilling story about where and how he found the bag (for example, in a cemetery, in a haunted house, or is it a gift from a ghost, etc.) The first player is invited to take something in the bag (look inside and You cannot feel the bag!). It is prohibited to remove the item. After the player grabs an item, he must invent the scariest story possible about it. For example, a player finds a dried plum and assumes that it is someone's plucked out, shrunken eye. And makes up a story about him. At the end of the story, the narrator finally pulls this thing out of the bag and, as a rule, is surprised at how far his imagination can take him. After this, the bag is passed to the next player, who tells his story about another item.

Blowing a “balloon” for Halloween

An inflated balloon is placed in the middle of the table.
The two participants are blindfolded and sit opposite each other at the table.
They are asked to compete in blowing up the ball.
However, as soon as the contestants begin to blow, the ball is removed and a plate generously filled with flour is placed in its place.
The participants are amazed, and when their eyes are untied, they usually have fun with everyone

"Take care of your eyes" game for Halloween

You will need: a table tennis ball, painted like an eyeball; tablespoon.
Participants must divide into two groups. A short section of the path is indicated (start and finish). Each participant, in turn, must cover this distance while carefully carrying the “eye” in a spoon. The “eye” should not fall! If it still falls, the player returns to the start and goes through the path again. The team that finishes the relay faster wins.

"Fortune" game for Halloween

You will need: lemon juice, pieces of paper, a thin brush, a lamp.

With this game you can make a strong impression on your guests! It's almost as if you could predict their future. First you need to prepare. Write a few words on pieces of paper with a brush dipped in lemon juice. On some write a number, on others the words “yes”, “no” and “maybe”. Don't be upset that you don't see the inscription, everything is going according to plan. Place the pieces of paper in a certain way in a pile (those with numbers - in one, and those with words - in another), just be sure to remember where you have what: where are the numbers, and where are the words. Your lamp, which you place on the table, will serve as a magical crystal ball. Now let's move on to the game itself. Ask your guests to ask you a question. If the question requires the answers “yes”, “no” and “maybe”, then you take a piece of paper from one pile and hold it to the lamp. After a while, the invisible font appears and your guests are delighted! If the question requires a number in the answer (for example, what grade will I get next time in math?), then simply take a piece of paper from another pile and show it.

Game "I'm Scarier"

For this game you will need markers and inflated balloons in an amount equal to the number of participants in the game. The players' task is to draw a monster's face on the ball. The author of the scariest balloon wins this competition.

"Dance of the Witches" Halloween game

You will need: a broom (you can use a broom, mop, etc. instead), music.

Participants stand in a circle with a broom. When the music turns on, the witches begin to dance merrily and pass the broom from hand to hand. The witch who has the broom after the music stops is eliminated from the game (without the broom, of course). The winner is the one who ends up dancing alone with the broom.

"Tales of Mischief" Halloween game

The following proverbs and sayings about evil spirits are suitable for this competition:
- the evil one dealt with the evil one, but both fell into a pit;
- you can’t protect yourself at every hour;
- fear is worse than death;
- frighten the one who does not understand anything;
- fear takes away strength;
- fear has big eyes;
- the devil is not as scary as he is painted;
- look fear in the eye, don’t blink, and if you blink, you’ll disappear;
- fear is the enemy’s first assistant;
- in the middle of nowhere;
- there would be a swamp, but there would be devils
- like the devil in his bosom;
- sell your soul to the devil;
- sits like a devil in a swamp
- the devil possessed him.

Each participant pulls out a piece of paper with one or another saying written on the back. Then the players must portray it, and the rest must guess and name this proverb or saying out loud.

You can also use these sayings for another game. The presenter says the beginning of the saying, and the participants must quickly continue it. Whoever guesses the most sayings the fastest wins.

Collecting candy through a straw

Another simple game that children find very fun is to suck air through a straw to collect as many chocolate chips or colored M&Ms as possible.

"Witch's Pantry" Halloween game

In the room (the more spacious, the better) you need to hide in the corners, under the sofa, table, or hang all kinds of “evil spirits” from the walls and ceiling: toy and rubber frogs, snakes, spiders, lizards, bats, insects, cobwebs, etc. . The lights in the room turn off and the players turn on, who can illuminate themselves, for example, with their mobile phones. Participants are asked to find as many ingredients as possible (and list all that are hidden) for a magical witch soup. It is advisable to limit the search by time, after which the winner is chosen, who found the largest number of creatures in the witch's closet.

"Scary face" competition for Halloween

Participants take turns making scary faces. The one who makes the wildest and most terrible grimace is declared the winner and receives a prize. (The best prize in this competition will be a small mirror.)

"Get the candy" game for Halloween

Flour is poured into a bowl in a heap. The candy is inserted into it so that the tip sticks out, by which it can be pulled out. If your nose and cheeks are not stained with flour, you can take the candy as a prize. Anyone who wants to test their dexterity can take part in this competition.

Competition for the best spell

When it gets dark, you have to come up with and cast the most terrible and chilling spell (and, of course, explain to others what this spell does).

Game "Running on Chicken Legs"

2 pairs of “chicken legs” are sewn from foam rubber. At one end of the hall, two teams of 4-5 people line up. At the other end of the hall there is a counter. At the signal, the first players on the team put on the “chicken legs”, run around the counter, return to their team and pass the “chicken legs” to the next player. The winning team is the first to finish the competition.

Halloween Pranks

Prank game "Mummy"

The presenter invites everyone to take turns visiting the mummy’s crypt. The mummy's crypt is set up in the next room. The lights in the room are turned off and several candles are lit. A person lies down on the sofa and covers himself with a sheet. An open trough with yogurt or soft cottage cheese is placed on the mummy's face.
The driver, having entered the “crypt” with the “victim,” begins to tell in a sepulchral voice: “This is the crypt of a mummy. This is the coffin of a mummy (pointing to the sofa). This is the leg of a mummy (at this moment the driver takes the palm of the “victim” and places it on the person’s leg , lying under the sheet). This is the hand of the mummy (the palm of the victim is applied to the hand). This is the neck of the mummy (the palm is applied to the neck). And this is the eye of the mummy (the presenter, holding the victim by the finger, pokes it into the place on the sheet covering the trough with yogurt ).
For this prank to be successful, several rehearsals are necessary. Try not to prank overly impressionable people.

"Pharaoh" Halloween prank

We choose a girl and blindfold her. We bring her to the table on which someone is lying. Her hands are taken and applied to different parts of the lying body. At the same time, each time they say: “here is the leg of the pharaoh, here is the belly of the pharaoh, here ...”, and at the end the hands are lowered into some salad and they say “but the brains of the pharaoh.” The result is unpredictable.

"Room of Horrors" Halloween prank

The organizer of the holiday invites the bravest volunteer to visit the room of horrors. The volunteer goes with the leader into a dark bathroom. He receives the task of shouting to extinguish the candle burning there. After this, the volunteer is prohibited from telling the other guests what happened in the horror room. As a result, the next participant who heard the terrible screams goes into the horror room with some apprehension. And after several participants who were in the room uttered heartbreaking “screams of horror,” the rest of those present were afraid to go there.

"Old Dead Joe's Cave" Halloween Prank Game

This is delightfully "scary" fun for older children. To organize such a game, you will have to work hard in advance to equip a special darkened room, placing in it on stands or just chairs various “body parts” of “Old Dead Joe”: “eyes”, “tongue”, and so on. They should be placed in vessels or containers of suitable volume, mostly filled with warm water. Each of the children who is brave enough for this is blindfolded and allowed to enter the “cave” - no more than one child at a time. You, as a good owner, should lead the child from one scary object to another, each time allowing him to put his hands into the vessel and try to determine by touch what it contains. All other children at this time should sit quietly and, with bated breath, listen to the squeals and screams of the daredevil, who is being led through the “cave.”

Any room with tightly closed curtains or even a corridor (if the holiday takes place after sunset) can serve as a cave - just don’t turn on the lights, and the participants are guaranteed a scary experience :)

Here are the body parts of “Old Dead Joe” that you need to make and place in the “cave” in advance:
- “Old Dead Joe’s Bones” - find tree branches of a suitable size on the street and free them from twigs and leaves;;
- "Old Dead Joe's Guts" - a large bowl filled with wet, slimy noodles;
- "Old Dead Joe's Heart" - a very large peeled tomato;;
- “The Eyes of Old Dead Joe” - a small container filled with water in which two large grapes float;
- "Old Dead Joe's Teeth" - a metal pot or kettle filled with small stones or hard candies;
- "Old Dead Joe's Hair" - a human hair wig stretched over a ball;
- "Old Dead Joe's Ears" - two halves of an artichoke (with the sharp spines trimmed);
- "Old Dead Joe's Nose" - a raw potato cut into the shape of a nose;
- "Old Dead Joe's Fingers" - cold sausages;
- Finally, "Old Dead Joe's Blood" is a pot or jug ​​filled with warm tomato juice.
You will need to have a towel on hand to dry your child's hands after they have gotten into the blood.

When you leave the “cave” with a child, you can do a great job of intimidating children who have not yet visited the cave by loudly declaring: “Run, go and wash the blood off your hands: otherwise the entire parquet will be covered in blood!” The squeals and delight of the festival participants are guaranteed.

You will also need a flashlight to help you navigate your way through a dark room. Of course, the child will be blindfolded, but you will need a little light to guide him by the hand from vessel to vessel.
Be sure to videotape the entire event (including your visit to "Old Dead Joe's Cave"); it can be successfully demonstrated to guests closer to the end of the holiday.

We hope that the presented Halloween games and pranks will delight you, your loved ones and guests! Happy Halloween!

This cheerful and creepy holiday, thanks to its mysterious atmosphere, has managed to fall in love with both adults and children. If you have managed to retain childlike spontaneity and a love of adventure in your soul, Halloween is exactly the holiday that simply needs to be included in the set of your family traditions. Coming to us from afar, it will introduce you and your children to the festive culture of other countries, and joint preparation for it will give you many pleasant moments of creativity and communication.

Children's Halloween Party: Fun Trouble

How to decorate your house for Halloween? There are many options! And if you consider that all children are initially talented, there will be no end to interesting solutions.

Here are a few ideas to consider:

1. Decorate the walls and doors with funny signs and posters, drawn, of course, together with the children. The content of the signs may be as follows: “Door to the fifth dimension”, “Beware of hungry mosquitoes”, “No biting!”, “Don’t scare away the bats”, “Scary room”, etc.

2. Charming ghosts cut out of a sheet of whatman paper will be happy to be placed on the walls and ceilings of your home.

3. Thematic figures – bats, spiders, pumpkins, etc. You can also cut them out of colored paper and hang them around your apartment, or you can decorate the windows with them. By the way, such thematic stickers can be purchased at almost any stationery store.

4. Cut autumn branches will help create a magical holiday atmosphere.

5. A variety of Halloween figurines, purchased in a store (very cute figurines are sold in the Red Cube chain of stores) or made by yourself, will decorate window sills and bookshelves.

6. Pumpkins! The more of them there are at the holiday, the better. From a couple of large pumpkins you can make holiday lamps with funny faces, and use the rest to decorate the room.

7. It's hard to imagine Halloween without the mysterious flickering of candles. Candles create an amazing atmosphere, but be careful - fire safety measures must be observed at a children's party.

8. Autumn leaves, straw and other natural materials are the best you can think of for decorating your home and holiday table.

9. You can easily draw terribly cute tantamaresques depicting all kinds of monsters and ghosts yourself on a sheet of whatman paper, and then cut out holes for the face and hands. The main thing here is not artistic skill, but the love and care that you put into your creations!

10. Decide in advance how much fun your house can handle, and make cute invitations in the form of pumpkins or autumn leaves for all guests.

Children's Halloween party: festive table

“Cheap and cheerful” - a festive table draped with black and orange mesh, which can be purchased at any fabric store, will look very impressive. Make the same one, and secure all the knots and folds with decorative spiders. It is good to additionally decorate the table with a natural composition of pumpkins, leaves and candles and other Halloween paraphernalia.

The holiday menu should consist of healthy dishes from children's cuisine , decorated and named according to the holiday theme. For example: all kinds of pumpkin dishes - stew served in a hollowed out pumpkin, golden pancakes, pumpkin pie; juices and compotes are predominantly red, but you should always have an alternative option for children who do not want to eat red foods due to allergies; salads decorated in the form of shapeless monsters with eyes made of olives or peas; vegetable and fruit slices in the form of eyes, smiling jaws, etc. – there are no limits to imagination here. Sandwiches, pies, and cookies can also be decorated in the most amazing way.

Children's Halloween Party: Costumes

Any themed holiday involves dressing up, and Halloween is no exception. You can purchase ready-made costumes, or you can make a costume yourself. Anything that somehow resonates with our theme will be a suitable option: a vampire robe, a pirate outfit, a witch or ghost costume - all of this is spot on.
Take care of the attire for your guests. Of course, they will probably not come empty-handed, but just in case, prepare some elements of costumes for the invited children and adults - just enjoy the walk!

Children's Halloween: games and competitions

1. Test. When opening the Halloween party, arrange a “test” for the kids to test their knowledge of the habits of otherworldly inhabitants:
- to the most terrible howl;
- to the loudest stomp;
- knowledge of traditional scary dance (dance competition for attentiveness when repeating movements).

These “tests” will help to involve children in the festive process and activate their attention.

2. Repeated horror story. Now the guys move single file behind the leader, repeating the words and movements after him:

We are entering a dark forest ( take a few sneaking steps forward),
Where are the trees up to the sky? pull your hands up)!
Let's wander along the path ( a few more steps),
Let's wander into the thicket of the forest ( spread our fingers out to look like tree branches).
We reach the ravine ( sneaking around),
Oh, we'll be afraid ( we're shaking):
There's a roar everywhere, a howl everywhere ( we stomp and make scary sounds) –
It's time for us to run home ( children run in all directions and hide in all directions, and the leader tries to catch them)!

3. Hungry monster. This charming monster with an open mouth must be drawn in advance on a sheet of Whatman paper and glued to a cardboard base. The monster's mouth is cut off, and a stand is glued to the back of this structure so that the cardboard can stand on the floor. You can also use a tall box, on one of the wide sides of which a monster is drawn and its mouth is cut out. The children’s task is to “feed” the monster by throwing tennis or plastic balls into its open mouth. The one who hits the target the most times wins.

4. Crossing the swamp. For this competition, prepare hummocks cut out of paper or leftover linoleum. Children will need to “go through the swamp”, stepping only onto saving hummocks. One participant is given three bumps, after completing a step, he must move one bump forward and take the next step, etc. The game is a relay race. The fastest participant (or team) wins.

5. “Take care of your eyes!” Another relay game. We will need a tablespoon and a tennis ball painted to look like an eyeball. Participants need to quickly and very carefully bring the “eye” in the spoon to its destination. The team that can complete the task faster and more accurately wins.

6. Dinner for a witch. Under the guidance of the leader, children will need to find dinner ingredients scattered and hung around the room in advance: rubber snakes, lizards, various insects, bats and spiders. The presenter reads the recipe, for example: for the roast we will need 15 bats, 2 cockroaches, 10 caterpillars, etc., and the guys look around the room for the ingredients in the right quantity. A small snack after such a competition suggests itself!

7. Path of Terror. While the children are busy in the hall, quietly lay out in the hallway or corridor several cardboard boxes with different fillings that are unpleasant to the touch: wet moss, crumpled newspaper, rustling bags, a damp rag, a heating pad with warm water. When everything is ready, invite the children to walk along this scary path one by one. The main condition: the participants’ eyes must be closed and they must walk barefoot.

8. Vampires. Before the competition begins, tell the legend that we have entered the domain of a vampire lord and are obliged to follow the rules of the vampires' daily routine. Together with the guys, we remember what time of day they sleep and what time they are awake. We choose a “victim” and place it near the window. And the “vampires” - all the other children - are located on the opposite side of the room in their “crypt”. The children’s task is to move only when the leader announces the onset of night, and freezing in place at the word “day,” to try to catch the victim as quickly as possible. Whoever catches it wins.

9. Little artists. Children are given orange balloons and black permanent (others may smear) markers. You need to draw a Halloween monster on the ball. The funniest grimace wins.

10. Night rest. Do you remember the indescribable delight and horror that various scary stories caused you in childhood? Light a candle, sit the children around it and announce a scary story competition. The candle is carefully passed from one participant to another, and the one near whom the candle stops must tell his “horror story.” The main thing here is not to overdo it and end too creepy stories on an optimistic note, causing smiles and laughter. Believe me, the amazing atmosphere, fascinating stories and the opportunity to dream a little will bring a lot of pleasure to both storytellers and listeners.

Don’t forget about the festive disco with fun dance competitions: with balloons squeezed between your bellies - for the friendliest couple, with a mop in his hands - for the most cheerful and active witch, with repetition of movements - for care and precision and etc.

And finish the competition part at a festively set table, “planting” a pre-cleaned pumpkin with all sorts of sweets suitable for the theme in the center of the table - licorice candies in the shape of worms, “scary” chewing marmalade and figured cookies.

This holiday is one of the most ancient in the history of all mankind, although it became so popular not so long ago.This is a fun holiday. And today we will make sure of this.

(Organ music by J.S. Bach sounds. Children enter the hall and take their seats. The lights blink. Hooting and whistling can be heard behind the doors of the hall. All the bad guys run in.)

Bat: Here we are all assembled! Be equal! Attention! I'm starting roll call. Ghost?!

Casting: I!

Bat: Why did you complain?

Casting: With witchcraft!

Bat: Devil?!

Devil: Here I am!

Bat: What will surprise you?

Devil: By dirty tricks and cunning.

Bat: Witch?!

Witch: As always on the spot!

Bat: What surprise have you prepared?

Witch: Pampering, noise and disgrace.

Bat: And I, the bat, will frighten, I will frighten! Well, unclean Silushka, get to work!

Skeleton: So let's get started on the holiday. And we will begin the opening of the holiday with a ghost.

(the event requires 2 teams of 6 people)

Bringing : And now I want to know which of you is the bravest? (2 teams of 6 people)

COMPETITION BE AWARE OF YOUR EYES!

Take two small balls and paint them to look like eyeballs. Divide those interested into two teams. One and the other team is given a tablespoon and an “eye.” Mark the start and finish. The task is to very carefully, without dropping the ball, carry it in a spoon to the finish line, and then pass the baton to another participant. If someone drops the “eye,” the player returns to the starting line and begins his journey again.

Bat: Well done! You did a great job of stirring up everyone!

Skeleton: Damn!!! Now show me your unclean power.

Devil: And now I’ll turn these cute, pretty children into little devils. And I’ll make them compete.

THE FUCKING TAIL COMPETITION

(participants 2 people)

All participants wear horns and a thread is tied to the belt, its end should hang freely from behind to knee level. Tie a pen or pencil to the end of the thread. Place empty bottles or stable vases on the floor. The contestants' task is to insert the handle into the neck of the bottle, but they cannot help themselves with their hands. The winner will be the one who does it all the fastest.

Skeleton: Good girl, Little Devil!

Imp: Children, have you ever been to a house with a party (children’s answer) It’s so damp, dirty and disgusting there. You'll just love it! And there are also nasty ghosts living there...

Skeleton: Well, why are they vile? We know one ghost, he’s very cute. And today he is our guest. Let's see what it has in store for you. (Flash mob to cheerful music)

Imp : But I still prefer nastiness, abomination. And with my cunning I can fool anyone’s head.

Now let's see how you can scare me.

SCARY FACE COMPETITION.

(selected children participate and show scary faces)

Bat : Thank you, little devil, for amusing us. Have you stayed too long in your place, witch? Show us what a naughty and restless person you are.

Witch: I love to make noise, knock and scare small children.

Skeleton: You are unlikely to scare our guys with your noise and knocking. They are quite capable of making noise themselves. They even have a noisy dance.

Witch: I like it! I'm at ease here. I also like to move furniture in houses and apartments at night to scare the owners. I even brought skittles from one apartment. Well, guys, will you play with me?

DANCE COMPETITION WITH THE WITCH.

Packing of skittles. There are 9 pieces in it, so we recruit 10 people, put pins in a circle and children. The music is playing, the children are dancing, having fun, the music has stopped, the children are grabbing the pin, whoever doesn’t have time is out of the game. We play until the last person.

Bat: Rest, honey!

Witch: no, I want to play with the kids one last time. And you, children, tell me: what do I fly on, what do I sweep the hut with? What is my witchcraft power?

Children: In the broom!

Witch: Who wants my girlfriends with brooms? Shouldn't we dance?

DANCE COMPETITION WITH A BROOM.

Bat: Nice job, witch.

Skeleton: Aren't you tired??? (addresses the children) Let's play.

PHARAOH MUMMY COMPETITION

Divide the participants into pairs. Give each team one roll of toilet paper. One participant will play the role of a mummy, and the other will have to wrap it in paper. To win, you need to complete your task the fastest.

Skeleton: Our dear guests, unclean silushka, we had a lot of fun with you and realized that you are not as bad as they say about you in fairy tales.

Imp: Yes! Believe these fairy tales more!

Skeleton: At first we were a little scared of you. And then you made us laugh. We ask you to stay with us some more, it’s fun to be with you. Guys, let's draw portraits of our heroes and give them as gifts.

Bat: And you guys had a lot of fun with us. Remember us, the unclean ones. Well, brothers, it’s time for fun, but time for business. Line up! Goodbye! (Everyone says goodbye) Follow me into the forest - step by step!

(They leave to the music. All competitions are also held to the music.)

The Western and seemingly completely alien holiday to our citizens, Halloween, oddly enough, has much in common with our tradition of celebrating winter holidays. If you take a closer look at what people essentially do during the Halloween celebration there, and what they do during the “festivities” during the winter “holidays” here, you can find a lot in common between our cultures. So, let’s list the general things that can be seen with the naked eye:

• In the USA, on Halloween, people wear “creepy” carnival costumes, and in our culture it is also customary to dress up, although “in Rus'” this area has never been so commercialized.
• During these holidays, people have fun, communicate, sing, laugh - in general, have a fun time.
• Thanks to Hollywood films, we know that American children love to go from house to house in small groups and beg for sweets with the words “ Trick or treat“, and it’s customary for us to walk from house to house in the same way, but at the same time we hum or read carols like poetry.

In general, today it probably doesn’t matter how similar the traditions of different cultures may be, because our children love and know Halloween more than winter “holidays.” Therefore, we advise you to use this Halloween celebration scenario in order to please modern kids who grew up with everything “Western”. Rest assured: they will be delighted with such a holiday!

Preparing for children's Halloween

The age of the event participants is not important, because if some competitions or questions turn out to be too difficult for the kids, their parents can come to their aid. Therefore, invite children along with their parents.

Venue of the event: apartment, house or cottage of one of the participants, kindergarten, school, gym, cafe, etc. In other words, any free space will do (even the street, if the weather permits), because the scenario can be adapted to any conditions.

Plot: participants of the holiday will “go around the courtyards-stations”, complete tasks and receive treats.

Invitation tickets: organizers can make them themselves from colored paper or cardboard. They can be shaped like pumpkins, bats, "ghosts" or witches' hats.

Decorating the room: first of all, of course, you need to place “Jacks” everywhere - pumpkins (real or artificial) with laughing faces carved on them. You can also use dry leaves, acorns, dry straw, flowers, etc. as decorative elements (after all, Halloween is an autumn holiday). And don’t forget about all sorts of “horror” things: toy bats, ghosts, monsters, spiders, etc. – they should be everywhere!

Table setting and dishes: holiday organizers can show their imagination, because any dish can be made “terrible”. The easiest way is to make cookies, candies or buns that are shaped like pumpkins, cauldrons or witches' hats, spiders. Chewy “worms” can also be an excellent dessert, and as a drink you can offer children “blood” - cherry juice.

Poems for Halloween

Write down poems in advance on an A4 sheet of paper that will help children “beg” for treats:

Open it quickly
Treat the kids!
Let's play together,
Otherwise, we'll scare you.

Hush, hush, spiders and mice!
Don't disturb, don't make noise,
And step aside.
We came for a treat -
Lollipops and cookies!

Hey people, come out!
Bring treats!
Printed gingerbread cookies,
Chocolate candies.

Halloween Contests

Station No. 1 "Haunted Closet"

Props: white sheets or pieces of fabric (one “cape” per person), a disc with a recording of “Dance of the Little Swans” from the ballet “Swan Lake” and a record player.

The organizers ask children to help them calm the ghosts who are too “spoiled” and do not want to fly away to their homes, cemeteries and crypts. The only thing that can calm them down is a joint performance of the “Dance of the Little Ghosts,” which children can perform only to the music from the ballet “Swan Lake” and if they wear “ghost costumes”: pieces of white fabric.

Station No. 2 “Flying on the Broom”

Props: two brooms.

The organizers can carry out any of the events known to them, replacing the necessary props with brooms. Naturally, for the relay races it will be necessary to divide the guests into two (or more, depending on the rules) teams.

Station No. 3 “Mysterious Bubble”

The organizers tell the children that they will be able to get treats at this station if they go through the “mysterious bubble” that the evil witch has “conjured”. To overcome this invisible “obstacle” they must follow the commands of the leader (one of the organizers).

The rules of the game are very simple: you can only go through the bubble during the day, and at night you will have to stop. And so that the children can figure out when it is day and when it is night, the leader will count to three, and then say the words “day” and “night”. If the presenter says the phrase “one, two, three – night!”, then you need to quickly freeze in place. And if he said “one, two, three – day!”, then you can walk in a circle.

Station No. 4 “Sea of ​​Fantasy”

The organizers choose a driver who will say the following phrase: “The sea is worried two, the sea is worried three, hey, you scarecrow - freeze!”

Rules of the game: while the driver says that “the sea is worried,” the children move around the room in a chaotic order, but when he says the words “scarecrow - freeze!” – all players must freeze in different poses, depicting any characters. The driver's task is to guess who the children are portraying.

Station No. 5 “Noisy Orchestra”

Props: children's, homemade and real musical instruments for a “noise orchestra”, a disc with a recording of the composition “In the Cave of the Mountain King” (suite “Peer Gynt”, comp. Edvard Grieg) and a player.

At this station, the organizers ask children to take part in the performance of the “scary orchestra.” They play the song “In the Cave of the Mountain King,” hand out musical instruments to everyone and ask them to “play along.”

Station No. 6 “Spider Corner”

Props: small balls (or small toy spiders), basket.

Rules of the game: children must, as quickly as possible, collect all the “spiders” scattered around the room (balls or toy spiders) into a basket (“web”) that interfere with the monsters living at this station.

Station No. 7 “Bat Attic”

Props: sheets of black or brown paper, strings.

Adults should prepare in advance for this “station”: you need to find patterns on the Internet for creating paper bats (origami) and study them.

During the holiday, adults and children will make bats out of paper and then hang them on strings around the room.
