Well, who didn’t love their own birthday as a child? This is the day when all the closest and dearest gather, friends come, give a bunch of gifts, cut a delicious cake. These are the most fun and vivid memories of childhood, and to make them even brighter, parents need to work out a scenario for a children's party, birthday competitions. The main thing is not just to meet guests and sit at the table, but also to entertain them, giving the child and his friends the opportunity to unite even more, have fun to the fullest and remember this day as the best in life. But what kind of competitions are needed for a child's birthday? We will offer you many options, and when choosing, be sure to take into account the age of the children and choose the most interesting games for everyone present.

Competitions for children 3-6 years old

Mind games

Intellectual competitions at the table are good because they help save parents’ home from the chaos and destruction that naughty preschoolers threaten it with. Of course, children cannot be captivated by such fun for a long time, but for a while they will be “neutralized,” and at the same time, watching their games will help parents learn something new about their child.

The simplest birthday contests for children can be represented by riddles that can be chosen for any age:

"Guess what I see"

The adult verbally describes the object, and the children must understand what is being said and find this object in the room.

An adult or child depicts something or someone, and the rest of the children must understand what or who it is.

"What's missing?"

Several objects need to be laid out on the floor, sofa or chair, which children must look at for a while, after which they must turn away, and the adult removes one of the objects. After this, the children look at the “exposition” again and must remember what disappeared from here.

Fairytale Quiz

The fairytale quiz is also one of the interesting competitions for children's birthdays. Here you need to come up with a series of questions based on famous children's poems, cartoons and fairy tales, and provide prizes for correct answers - toys, chocolate medals, etc.

Board games

Mini competitions for children can be presented with their favorite board games, which the whole family loves to spend their leisure time with. Although in our time they have been supplanted by tablets and cartoons, they can easily find a place at a children’s party:

Action games

Particularly interesting are the “adventure games”, where each player has a piece with which he moves around the playing field for the number of steps that is rolled by the dice. These games are good for groups and can be played by children of all ages. In addition, in modern games the chips are made unusual, and manufacturers accompany the games with exciting tasks.

Cards

Now on sale there are exciting and colorfully designed games for children of all ages. With them you can play “Shuffle”, “Dobble”, “Dubble”, “Memory” and many other games - everything that can be found on the Internet.

"Guess what you're eating"

This delicious game is suitable for any age. Children are asked to close their eyes and taste something edible that an adult will put in their open mouths. This is a very funny competition, because it turns out that it is not so easy to determine the taste of a dish without seeing it.

Outdoor games

"Cold-hot"

The game is a variation of the classic hide and seek. An adult hides a toy in the room, and the children’s task is to find it, following the clues from the words “cold” and “hot.”

"Magic Tunnel"

For this game you will need a children's tunnel, but it can easily be replaced by a small table or chair that a child can crawl under. His task is not just to climb into the tunnel, but to come out of there in a new guise, portraying someone: an animal or a fairy-tale character. Other children must guess who came out of the magic tunnel. The one who guesses correctly goes into the magic tunnel himself.

Ball games

Competitions for 4-year-old children's birthdays include good old-fashioned fun that combines tasks for erudition, intelligence, fun and moving elements. So, in the “edible-inedible” game, the leader sits the children in a row and, in turn, throws a ball to each child, pronouncing a word. If the word means an edible object, then the ball must be caught, and if it is inedible, then it must be pushed back with your hands. In another version, the children stand in a circle, and the leader throws a ball to one of them and asks them to name a color, fruit, vegetable or flower. Children need to simultaneously catch the ball and remember the appropriate object.

Role-playing games

Children love most when competitions for children's birthdays of 6 years old contain role-playing games. In order for a group of children to have a lot of fun, you can invite them to temporarily become brave Indians, overcoming obstacles, fighting hostile tribes and performing funny dances. You can transform into brave knights, beautiful princesses or fire-breathing dragons, into fairy tale or cartoon characters - the choice here is unlimited. Of course, such competitions are done with their own hands, so parents will have to try hard to create costumes and attributes. In addition, they themselves can take part in the fun with the children, releasing for a short time the child hiding in the depths of their soul.

Competitions for children 4-12 years old

It is most convenient to think about holding competitions at a children’s birthday party if all the children present at the party are the same age. However, often, especially at the birthday of preschoolers, not only peers are invited, but also relatives with their children, sisters and brothers - then a variety of children's ages can be represented at the holiday. This happens because the child himself still lacks his own friends and peers, so instead of them, relatives of all ages come who know the birthday boy from a young age and are happy to congratulate him. In this case, the ideas for birthday competitions for children will simply require a little more effort from the parents, but in the end, the children themselves will find ways to begin to interact better, and besides, such contact between them will bring the younger ones invaluable experience of interacting in a team.

"Tails"

This game involves pairs of players, each of whom has a rope tied around their waist so that a small “tail” hangs from behind. The players' task is to be the first to catch their opponent by the tail and prevent him from doing the same. This fun competition can be enjoyed with lively music. The game trains reaction and dexterity.

"Collective Art"

To play this game, children need to be divided into 2 teams. The first members of each team draw a head and neck on the top of their sheets, while the rest of the participants do not see what exactly is drawn. Then the presenter folds the top of the sheet, covering the image, and only the lower part of the neck remains visible. After this, the second player approaches the sheet and continues the drawing. Then the presenter wraps this part of the sheet, leaving only the lower part of the lines of the drawing. So gradually the drawing grows downwards, and all team members put their hands on it in turn. At the end, the presenter unfolds both sheets and everyone looks at the resulting image in surprise. Such competitions for children at their 6th birthday perfectly develop their imagination.

"Art relay race"

This game, which develops creative imagination and thinking, the ability to work in a team, is interesting but calm. Children are divided into two teams, which are given the task of drawing an animal or other object within a certain time. Moreover, in one approach, each participant can draw one line (straight, oval, circle, etc.). In the end, the team whose drawing more closely resembles the intended object wins.

"Candy on a Fishing Rod"

Instead of a fishing hook, you need to tie a candy to the fishing line using a candy wrapper. Using a fishing rod, you need to bring the candy to your mouth, unwrap it without using your hands and eat it. The child who can handle it faster wins. This game develops dexterity and coordination.

"Volleyball with a balloon"

Thanks to this exciting game, children develop dexterity, reaction, and coordination of movements. Children need to be divided into two teams, chairs should be placed at a distance of 1 meter from each other, and all players should be seated on them. A rope stretched between the chairs in the middle of the floor marks a grid separating the teams. Then a kind of volleyball begins, in which you need to throw a ball over a rope, and players are forbidden to take the ball in their hands (they can only push it with their palms) and get up from their chairs. If the ball lands on the floor in the opponent's half, the team gets a point. The game can be continued up to 15 points.

"Nesmeyana"

When thinking about how to hold a child’s birthday party at home, it is useful to select competitions that develop communication skills, ingenuity and imagination in children, like the next “Nesmeyana” competition. One of the children is chosen as Princess Nesmeyana and sits on a chair in front of the rest of the children. The rest of the children must try to make the “princess” laugh, but they must not touch her. The one who succeeds becomes the next Nesmeyanaya.

"Guessing Game"

Before starting the game with the children, a specific theme is selected (holiday, animals, furniture, etc.), after which the driver makes a wish for an object that corresponds to the chosen theme. Players must guess what was chosen using clarifying questions to which the driver can only answer “yes” and “no.” The first one to guess what is planned becomes the driver himself. With the help of this game, children train communication skills and develop thinking.

"Hold the Ball"

Contests at children's birthday parties at home often require a lot of space, but not this one. Two pairs of players take part here. Each pair must be placed in a circle formed by a hoop or a circle drawn on the floor. Each couple is given a balloon. Their task is to try to keep the ball in the air for as long as possible, blowing on it, but without touching it with their hands so that it does not fly out of their circle. The pair that can hold onto their ball the longest wins. With the help of this game, reaction, dexterity, coordination, and breathing apparatus are trained.

"Eskimo blind man's buff"

A driver is selected from among the children, whose hands are put on thick mittens and blindfolded. After this, children approach him one by one, whom he must recognize by touch. If he succeeds, then the identified child becomes the driver, and if he makes a mistake, he tries with the next players. With the help of such a competition, children develop memory and spatial imagination.

"Winkers"

Active and fun competitions for children’s birthdays can train attentiveness, and the best game for this would be the “Blinkers” game. Children need to be divided into two equal teams and a leader must be chosen. Chairs are placed in a row, on which the first team sits, and a chair is placed opposite, near which the leader stands. Members of the second team stand behind the players sitting on chairs. The host looks around at the seated players and winks at one of them. The player who received the wink must quickly move to a chair near the leader, and the task of the player standing behind him is to grab him in time to prevent escape. If the escape is successful, then this player himself becomes the leader.

"Broken phone"

With the help of the fun game “Broken Phone,” children quietly sharpen their attentiveness and hearing. The presenter whispers a phrase or word into the first player's ear, after which he turns to his neighbor and conveys to him what he heard in the same way. So, along the chain, the message reaches the last player, who says out loud what he heard, and the presenter loudly says what he himself conveyed. After this, the leader is sent to the end of the chain, and the first player becomes the leader.

"Confusion"

Children love cool competitions where they can practice thinking, logic and attentiveness. All children need to be lined up in a circle, holding hands. Then the driver turns to the side, and the children begin to climb over each other as they please, but without letting go of their hands. After this, the driver, also without opening his hands, must unravel this tangle.

“We are writing a fairy tale for the birthday boy”

The presenter opens a book or magazine to the first page he comes across and blindly points his finger at a random word. The first storyteller needs to come up with a phrase in which this word will be involved. Similarly, all other participants in the game get words. You can even come up with not one, but several proposals. As a result, a funny story will be born in the game; all that remains is to write it down on beautifully designed paper and give it to the birthday person. Such games develop imagination and thinking, and expand vocabulary.

"Three, thirteen, thirty"

Before the game, the leader explains to the children which number indicates this or that action, for example, 3 - hands on the belt, 13 - hands up, 30 - hands forward. Then the children line up at arm's length, outstretched to the sides. Next, the presenter calls the agreed numbers in random order, and the children must perform the corresponding movements. Gradually the pace of the leader accelerates. The one who got lost and performed another movement stands next to the leader and tries to knock down the rest of the players with incorrect movements. At the end of the game, the most attentive and unprovoked player remains. Such competitions for guests at a child’s birthday train reaction and attentiveness.

"Clap"

Each player receives a serial number and stands in a circle. Then they all begin to clap rhythmically, alternating two handclaps with two kneeclaps. One of the players repeats his own number twice when clapping his hands, and the number of the other player when clapping his knees. The one whose number was announced, with the next claps of his hands, calls out his number, and with claps on the knees, the number of the next player. Anyone who loses this rhythm, forgets his number or calls a number that has already left the game, is eliminated from the game. The last two players remaining in the circle are declared the winners. This fun trains reaction, memory and attentiveness.

"Liberation Action"

The dynamic game “Liberation Action” promotes the development of coordination, attentiveness, hearing, reaction in the leading player, and in the other players - reaction and dexterity. Participants in the game sit on chairs placed in a circle. In the center of the circle, a “prisoner” with his hands and feet tied and a “guard” who is blindfolded are seated. The task of the “liberators” is to untie the captive, and the guard’s task is to prevent them. As soon as he touches one of the liberators, he is eliminated from the game and removed from the circle. Anyone who manages to free the “prisoner” without being caught turns into a “guard” himself.

"Hunting"

Active competitions for a child’s birthday can develop freedom, dexterity, and coordination of movements. In the game "Hunt", the names of the participants in the game are written on cards, which are then shuffled and distributed to the players. The player dances to the music and at the same time quietly looks at what name is written on the card he received. At the moment when the music stops, the hunter must catch the prey whose name is written on his card. But he also hunts for his prey. As a result, real chaos begins! After this, the cards are collected, shuffled again, dealt out and the game continues.

"Waves in a Circle"

Make a circle of chairs standing close to each other, the number of which should correspond to the number of players. The driver is in the center of the circle, and the rest of the players sit on chairs. As a result, one chair remains free. The driver tries to sit on an empty chair, but the players must prevent him from doing this with their movements. If the driver manages to sit on an empty chair, then the player who missed him becomes the driver himself. Players move according to the driver’s commands “right” (clockwise one chair), “left”, or chaos (participants quickly change places, and the driver tries to take any empty seat). The player who sat on the chair that was free before the “chaos” command becomes the driver. Children train reaction, dexterity, and attentiveness in the game.

"Siamese twins"

All children need to be divided into two teams, in which there will be several pairs. Couples stand sideways to each other and put one arm around their shoulders. As a result, each "Siamese twin" has one right and one left hand. This creature needs to run to a plate of candy, unwrap the candy and eat it, feeding both heads. The pair that finishes all the candies the fastest wins. A variant of the task for the “Siamese twins” is to make an envelope out of paper and tie the laces on your shoes. This game strengthens teamwork skills.

"The Fisherman and the Goldfish"

The participants of this game line up in a circle, and the leader in the center twirls a jump rope and a rope with a knot at the end. The end of the rope should pass under the players' feet, and they should jump in time to avoid touching it. Anyone who gets hit by the rope is out of the game for a while. The game continues until there is only one participant left, who becomes the winner. It develops agility, coordination, endurance and attentiveness.

"Copy of the monument"

With the help of this game, which develops attentiveness in children, they gradually get rid of shyness. You need to choose two among the children. One will be the “copier” and will be taken out of the room and blindfolded. The second one will be a “monument”; at this moment he should take an interesting pose in which he will freeze. Next, a “blind copyist” is introduced, who must determine by touch the pose of the “monument” and take exactly the same one.

"Broken Fax"

In this game, children are seated one after another so that each next one looks at the back of the head of the previous one. The first and last players each receive a pen and a piece of paper. The last player draws a simple figure on paper, and then reproduces it by running his finger along the back of the player in front. He, in turn, draws with his finger on the back of his predecessor what he felt on his back. The player sitting first transfers his feelings to paper, after which the initial and final drawings are compared. With the help of this game, memory, hand motor skills, and attentiveness are trained.

"Cock-fights"

The floor is divided by a tape or rope, on either side of which two players stand in the starting position - on one leg, facing each other, with their hands clasped behind their backs. Everyone should strive to cross the border to the opponent’s side without touching the floor with their other foot or releasing their hands. At the same time, you still cannot allow the enemy into your territory. You can only push with your chest or shoulder. Anyone who breaks these rules is considered a loser. The game develops strength and coordination.

"Knees"

The players need to be seated close to each other, placing their left hand on the right knee of the neighbor on the left, and the right hand on the left knee of the opposite neighbor. If the circle is not closed, then the end players place one hand on their knee. In the game, you should quickly slap your knee with your hand without breaking a certain sequence. If someone clapped out of time or even just raised his hand, then he hides that hand. There may be several winners or just one. To make the game more interesting, you need to maintain a high pace. It trains reaction, hand motor skills, coordination, and attentiveness.

"Caterpillar"

Players stand one after another and place their hands on the belt of the player in front, forming a “caterpillar”. The first one becomes the head of this caterpillar, and the last one becomes the tail. Then music sounds, and the caterpillar begins to crawl forward, while the head performs various dance steps with any parts of the body, and the rest must try to repeat these movements. Tired, the “head” turns to the next player, strokes his head, and then stands at the tail of the caterpillar. Liberation, coordination, and attentiveness are trained here.

Which competitions did you like the most, and which ones did you take note of? Perhaps you have held other fun children's competitions - be sure to write about them in the comments!

Any holiday for children is not only about gifts, congratulations, surprises and a sweet table. Many children value holidays for the atmosphere of fun that reigns there. To ensure that the general mood does not develop into chaos and that each of the children present is able to take a direct part in it, the celebration programs always include competitions. We will tell you further what competitions are interesting for children aged 10 and when they should be held.

What competitions are interesting for 10-year-old children?

Children aged 10 are active and are interested in competitions that give them the opportunity to splash out their energy and demonstrate to other children their dexterity and intelligence. Also, at this age, children are already actively beginning to be interested in the opposite sex, and therefore joint games are no less interesting to them. However, competitions that invade the personal space of boys and girls should only be selected in companies where the children already know each other very well and communicate well. Otherwise, some children may feel uncomfortable.

If it’s a birthday or just a feast, you definitely need to alternate between calm and active competitions. The break between outdoor competitions should be about 20 minutes.

Birthday Contests: 10th Anniversary

On a birthday, guests should pay some attention to the hero of the occasion. This can be done through competitions.

"Dress the birthday girl"

If the birthday boy is a 10-year-old girl, such a competition will come in handy for her.

Requisites:

Felt pens and photographs depicting the birthday girl in an outfit similar to gymnasts’ costumes, but without decorative details.

Progress of the competition:

All guests are given photos of the birthday girl and they need to use felt-tip pens to “dress” her in a beautiful suit. The winner will be the one whose outfit the birthday girl likes the most.

"Super Agent on a Mission"

For 10-year-old boys, you can hold an equally exciting competition, especially if it is a theme evening and the boys play pirates or agents.

Requisites:

A pile of old things

Progress of the competition:

It is explained to the guys that their main agent (the birthday boy) must transform into a grandmother to complete the task. Children enjoy dressing up like this and laughter and fun will be guaranteed. In addition, you can involve other children in the competition, for example, by giving them cards with other images. The more unusual the characters in which they will be reincarnated are, the more interest the game will arouse in children.

In large companies, competitions should be held in mobile formats with possible small prizes in the form of souvenirs. Competitions in which children have to complete a team task will be good. With the help of such competitions, experienced teachers can even help resolve conflicts within the children's team.

"Merry Statue"

In this competition, children can not only show their creativity and ability to lead others, but also have a good laugh.

Progress of the competition:

Two premises are required for the competition. In the first, the competition itself will take place, and participants from another room will be called in turn.

The first two players are invited to create a statue of love or fun from their own bodies. After this, a third player is invited. It is he who will have to become the leader for a short time, composing the statue the way he sees it. After this, the third player takes the place of the first in the statue. Next, a fourth player is invited into the room, who, after all the manipulations, will have to take the place of the second, and so on until all the children have played the game.

"Air battle"

Requisites:

Large room, chalk, 10-20 balloons.

Progress of the competition:

The room is “divided” in half with chalk. Children are asked to split into two teams, each of which is given the same number of balls. The task is to throw all your balls onto the opponent's field, while they must also send the balls from the opponents back to their field.

The game starts with a sound and signal and after it sounds again, after a few minutes, the children must stop. The winner is the team whose field has the fewest balloons.

An option when you celebrate your Child’s birthday at home
– one of the most affordable and unusual!!!
Yes, exactly, “not - about - bullish”, provided that
You will approach its preparation with all your creative soul.

Age: 9-10 years.
Gender of the birthday boy: The scenario is universal, suitable for both boys and girls.
Subject: Birthday is a day of fun!

Preparation:
- specify who your birthday boy wants to invite. If you make new friends, find out what makes this little man special.
! Recommendation: It is important to consider the interests of not only your child, but also his guests. Children who are interested in sports should hold competitions for dexterity and strength, while curious and erudite children should be given tasks for logic and attention. Of course, you can risk doing the opposite, but not on your holiday!
- make invitations. Intrigue your guests with interesting invitations, and also give their parents the opportunity to easily find your phone number and home, if necessary.
- decorate your celebration place. They will help you: photographs of the child over the past year, a garland with the inscription “Happy Birthday!”, a New Year’s garland of lanterns, a streamer hanging from the ceiling, balloons, in general, everything that will create a festive atmosphere and take everyday life beyond the threshold.
- prepare and decorate the table.
! Recommendation: the menu for the children's table should not be complex and energy-consuming; concentrate on the program. What you should have a lot of is water and drinks! Prepare sandwiches and/or pizza, sweets and fruits and, of course, cake. Everything else will be a waste of time and money.

Here are some easy ideas for something interesting to prepare for your children's birthday.

Another important element that creates the holiday atmosphere is music! Make a thematic selection of songs about “Birthday!”, songs about “Friendship!”, also add the Birthday Boy’s favorite songs, and add a couple of those that his Mom likes!
Meeting with guests
Instruct the Birthday Boy to meet his guests, and also to ensure that hitherto unknown friends are introduced to each other.
! Recommendation: Remind your child of etiquette rules. Tell us that the guests racked their brains and chose a gift especially for him, so they will be very pleased to hear words of gratitude personally from the Birthday Boy. And if suddenly, the guests did not guess correctly with the gift, it would be very polite on his part not to talk about it, but to thank him anyway - after all, they also tried.

Scenario for children's birthday - 10 years

A good start to the games would be to solve funny riddles together.

"Who's behind the wall?"

Prepare a blanket or opaque fabric - this is the “wall”. Two assistants hold a blanket between the two teams of players so that the children squatting cannot see who is behind the “wall”! This is a good name recognition and reaction game. Suitable even for guests who know each other well.
Rules of the game: first, let's everyone say their name. Now we divide into two teams and go in opposite directions from the “wall”. One person at a time, sit down next to the “wall” - one from one team, the other from the second. At my command, the “wall” falls and you must loudly and quickly say the name of the player in front of you. The one who names correctly first takes the loser to his team. The team that attracts the most friends wins. We play for 5 minutes.

The blanket is rolled up. Inflated balloons - 20 pieces (can be taken from the decor). Funny music.
Rules of the game: Divide into two new teams. The room is divided by a blanket into two fields. I throw ten balls onto each field. When the music plays you need to throw the balls to the opposite field. As soon as the music stops, you all freeze in place. The team with the fewest balls on the field wins.
Repeat 3-5 times. But make sure that the children are not too tired.

"Abracadabra"

On A4 format, print the word “abracadabra” on one side and the correct version on the other, or make a presentation in PowerPoint.

Prepare album sheets, pencils, markers and pens, scissors. Play children's songs about friendship and friends in the background.
Rules of the game: everyone trace their hand and cut it out along the contour. Make it into a face, a little man, a sun, an octopus - whatever you want and let your hero write one quality of the Birthday Boy that he likes about him. We have 10 minutes.
As children hand in their work, mount it in a specially designated, visible place. For example, around one of the central photographs of the Birthday Boy.

"Dancing 'til you drop"

Prepare either the Birthday Boy’s favorite music, or just catchy and fun music (for example, like “Music from the Benny Hill Show.” You can easily find it for download on the Internet). Check your speakers. Lay down a rug or thick blanket to define and “cushion” the “dance floor” for children to fall onto.
Rules of the game:
Everyone gets on the dance floor. While the music is playing, you must dance. As soon as I stop the music, you must fall so that your heel touches the floor. The last person to sit down is out of the game. We play to the remaining two (if there are no more than five guests, then you can play to the remaining one). The winners receive a prize. Our guests really liked this game, they played six rounds.

"Karaoke"

Find online karaoke on the Internet, but it would be better to download so that there are no surprises in the form of not having access to the network. Prepare a list of songs.
Rules of the game:
Game in two rounds. In the first round, everyone chooses a song from the list. We unite you into groups of “one song”. It may happen that you all choose the same song. No problem. You will sing one verse and one chorus at a time. Whoever sang all the words correctly moves on to the second round.
In the second round, the song is chosen by the Birthday Boy. There should be as many songs as needed so that each player gets a new verse and chorus. Whoever sang all the words and did not falsify the melody receives a prize.

"Birthday Cake"

It turns out that you sing everything so well! Real stars! Let our star team sing a super-mega popular hit for our Birthday Boy: “Happy Birthday to you! Meanwhile, Mom will bring in the cake! And the Birthday Boy will blow out his candles!
! Recommendation: You can sing in the original language, or you can sing it in Russian translation. I offer two of my own options, maybe they will become yours:
Happy Birthday to you
Congratulations friends!
And they wish you (or And they want you)
Peace, Happiness in the family! (Lucky everywhere!)

The funniest and most fun contests for a child's birthday

Active competitions will be relevant at the children's party, which will allow all guests to participate and receive prizes. The variety of existing competitions and tasks is impressive. For the event, you should prepare some paraphernalia, decorations and incentive prizes.

Quest “Treasure Island” on Adventure Island

To conduct this competition, you should stock up on the necessary paraphernalia:

  • draw a treasure map (map or plan of an apartment, house)
  • hide clues and a valuable prize
  • stick signs on room doors and place directional arrows throughout the house
  • prepare costumes for children: hats, cardboard swords, parrots and others
children's pirate quest

Parents need to hide the secret prize in the most unexpected place: on the mezzanine, in the closet, on the balcony, in the bed. For the kids, an extremely confusing map is drawn, which shows the entire territory of the apartment, divided into zones:

  • dead man's beach
  • wild jungle
  • dark cave
  • Aboriginal settlement and others.

It’s good if there is one leader for each point on the map (room of the house). You can involve your family and friends in organizing the competition. Leaders are needed to give children tips if necessary, but not just like that, but for completed tasks. Eg:

  • tell a poem
  • Sing a song
  • perform physical exercise
  • assemble the puzzle
  • solve the puzzle

When the map is completed and the treasure is found, celebrate. In modern stores you can easily buy chocolates in the form of coins wrapped in gold foil.

A kilogram of such chocolates will be a wonderful treasure that children can share among themselves and get vivid impressions.
