Who walked so high, did not stumble, did not fall. Look - the hollow of a tall Christmas tree, angry bees fly out! The bees begin to circle around the Christmas tree and, imitating the flight with the movements of the hands bent at the elbows, say: “Wh-w-w” - we want to bite. The players say: “You can’t catch up with the swift-footed ones! We are not afraid of a swarm of bees, let's run home as soon as possible!

The swan geese ask: “What is he doing there?” “The geese are nibbling,” replies the hen. "What?" - “Gray, white, all kinds. Fly home soon!" With these words, the swan geese fly away home (to the paddock), and the wolf, running out from behind the mountain, tries to catch them. Those caught are taken over the mountain. The game continues two or three times, after which a new wolf and a bird are selected.

The fox, at the signal of the teacher, begins to sneak up on the chickens. The rooster, noticing the fox, gives the signal “Ku-ka-re-ku!”. All chickens take off (jump) onto perches. The rooster is the last to fly. The fox, breaking into the chicken coop, tries to grab and take away with him any chicken that did not have time to fly up to the perch or jumped off it. If the fox manages to grab the prey and it starts to take it away with him, the hunter shoots the fox. Fox has been shot. Instead of the one shot, another fox is chosen, and the game continues. During one raid, the fox can only carry off one chicken. The fox is obliged to leave the chicken coop at the signal of the teacher. In the conditions of the site and natural terrain, ordinary benches, logs, stumps, bumps, and fallen trees can be used as perches.

On the first cotton, the hares run home, overcoming the fence by crawling or crawling, without touching the rope. After the third clap, the Bug catches up with the hares and bites them (touches them with his hand). Caught hares remain in place. Hares that ran beyond the line of holes cannot be caught up. The teacher remembers those caught and allows them to join the hares. After that, the game is repeated, but another group of hares goes to the garden. The Watchman and the Bug can switch roles. When all groups of hares have been in the garden, a new watchman and a bug stand out.

The player left without a tape, the driver. He raises his hand and says, "I'm a tart."

"Who will throw further?" All participants are divided into three or four groups and line up one after another. Each player of the first line has a small stuffed ball (a bag of sand, a hockey or tennis ball). The judges are away from the throw line. Throwing lines are drawn from the throwing line, located 2 m from the first rank: the first at a distance of 10 m, the second at a distance of 12 m, etc. At the signal of the teacher, the players of the first rank throw balls in turn . The referees determine the distance of each throw in points: the ball thrown over the first line is one point, for the second line - two points, etc. The team that scores the most points wins.

Medicine balls lie 8–10 m away from the lines. The teacher calls a number, for example eight. The eighth numbers of both teams run to stuffed balls, run around them and return to their places. The one who comes first brings his team a point. Then another number is called, and so on until all players are called. The team with the most points wins.

Options: teams stand in columns; not only the ball runs around, but also a line or column; participants move by jumping on two legs, on one leg, in a squat, overcoming obstacles.

As soon as the player touches the driver, the teacher begins to count: "One, two, three!" After the word “three”, the driver opens his eyes, turns and tries to find out who approached him. If he finds out, he becomes in a semicircle, and the identified one will be the leader.

Option: all players are sitting.

"What changed?"

The players sit on benches. The driver, with his eyes closed, stands 5–6 m away with his back to them and slowly counts to five (up to eight to ten is possible). At this time, the children change seats, change places, take various poses (tilt their heads, bend one leg and straighten the other, etc.). The driver, having finished counting, turns to the players and tries to remember the location of the players or poses. Then he turns his back to the players. They change again.

Children, holding hands, walk in a circle to the right (left) and say: “Here we built a circle, we will suddenly turn around at once (the children turn and go in the other direction). And how do we say: “Skok, skok, skok”, - guess whose voice?

The words "skok, skok, skok" are said by one student at the direction of the teacher. When all the words have been said, the driver opens his eyes and tries to guess who said the words "hop, hop, hop." If he guesses correctly, then the one who spoke becomes the leader.

All that remains of our childhood is a few old toys, a battered diary and countless treasures in the form of badges or wrappers from Turbo and Donald Duck chewing gum. When you look at them, you feel a slight sadness. Is it really all gone and nothing can be returned? .. No matter how! There are also games that we played as children.

Yes, the rules are slightly forgotten. Well, let! Going to barbecues or just to nature, you can (and even need to) allow yourself to fall into childhood. For you and your kids - the best outdoor games for children in the fresh air of the 1980-90s!

rubber bands

Now this game is not so popular among girls. And in our time, everything was different. Let's remember? So, the main and only inventory is an ordinary linen elastic band about 2.5 meters long, tied into a ring. However, now sold and specially designed for jumping. At least three people participate in the game. Two pull the elastic band, putting it on their feet, and the third performs various combinations of jumps through it.

Start the game with the simplest and gradually complicate them. Each combination is worked out at several levels: on the bones, on the ankles, on the knees, on the buttocks. If the participant made a mistake, it's the turn of another. Some jumps have names - "pedestrians", "bows", "birch". The simplest exercise is as follows: you need to jump with both feet over one rubber band, then over the other.

beat out

For this fun, you need a light soft ball, otherwise, getting into the kids, it can simply knock them down. So, for starters, they choose two knockouts, which stand along the edges of the clearing against each other. The rest of the players are in the center. Their task is to dodge the flying ball. If the beater manages to hit someone, he is out of the game. But even if this happened, his comrades can save him. To do this, you need to catch the ball on the fly and give it to any retired. The game is considered over when all players are "knocked out".

This is a very useful fun for adults (they lose hated kilograms) and for kids (improves coordination).

Brook

The number of players must be odd. Everyone breaks into pairs and stand one after another, holding hands and raising them high. The driver enters this living corridor, chooses one of the players for himself and stands at its end. And the released player becomes the driver. The faster the stream "flows", the more fun.

Such simple game turns out to be very funny too. After all, it is not easy for adult uncles and aunts to pass under the bridge from small children's hands. This fun unites the participants perfectly

Kvach

This game is also known as catch-up, tags, sorcerers. In order for the strengths of the participants to be equal, it is better to play it either only for adults, or exclusively for children. First, a leader is chosen. He counts up to the agreed number (usually up to 10), and the rest of the players scatter in different directions (not too far). The leader's task is to catch up and touch each of them. Those he touches freeze in place. When all players are "tagged", the last one is declared the leader.

There is also an easier version of the game. But it is much more dynamic. The leader becomes the one whom the sorcerer caught up with and touched first.

If you see that the baby cannot “bash” anyone for a long time, then you should intervene and change the leader. Sometimes the little ones break the rules: they run, although they have been touched; hide behind trees so that they cannot be seen; pushing comrades. Adults should explain to their sons and daughters that this way the game turns into a mess and after a while everyone will become uninteresting.

The sea is worried

The leader pronounces a magic spell: “The sea is worried - one, the sea is worried - two, the sea is worried - three”, and then calls which figure should freeze in place. For example, sea. If he guessed all the figures, a new leader is selected, and if not, he will have to drive again.

Fishermen and fish

Are the kids frolicking with might and main? Give the adults a little rest, and invite the kids to play fisherman and fish. Take one end of the rope in your hand, bend over and start spinning in place so that the rope sweeps low above the ground. The kids have to jump over it. Whom she touched is caught. The winner is the last "fish".

edible - inedible

Everyone becomes in a circle. The host (in the center) throws the ball to one of the players, saying a word. If it means something edible, the ball should be caught and returned. If the named object cannot be eaten, the ball, accordingly, does not need to be caught. The game can be made harder or easier. For example, name only flowers, trees or animals.

It's like this fun Hot potato". Let one of the adults begin to sing any children's song. At this time, the participants will throw the ball to each other. When the song stops, whoever has the "hot potato" is out of the game. If the kids are very upset about being eliminated, do not take them out of the circle. Just have fun all together by throwing the ball. By the way, not only adults can sing a song ...

frisbee

There are many games that use a plastic flying saucer. It can shoot down objects at a distance (like towns), or throw it between all participants. If you take two plates, you can practice your dexterity by quickly throwing them to each other one after the other.

Leader, leader, give me a pioneer!

If adults participate in the game, then they will have to succumb to the kids. After all, the forces are unequal. The rules are as follows: players are divided into two teams and line up against each other. The distance between them should be at least 4-5 m. Team members join hands. It is better if at least one hand of the child is held by one of the adults. For safety!

The first team shouts: “Counselor, counselor, give a pioneer!” The second in response: "Whom?" First: "Vasya!"

The boy leaves his line and runs to the "enemies", intending to break the chain. If successful, he takes either of the two players whose hands he broke. If the attempt was in vain, then he remains in a strange team, lengthening the row. The game ends when there are no more players left on one of the teams. The children may ask who the pioneers are and why the leaders should serve them. Get ready to answer!

Kite

Is your company located in an open space? You can please the kids by flying a kite. It is better to do this together. Place yourself so that the wind blows in the back of the one who holds the rope, and, accordingly, in the face of the assistant. When unwinding the rope, move away from your friend by 20-25 meters. Having taken a position, pull it. Pull on it when you feel a gust of wind, and the assistant at this time should release the kite, slightly tossing it up with its nose.

If the launch was successful, the toy will rise into the sky and soar there. Does the wind weaken and the kite starts to fall? Pull the rope towards you. In order to lower the kite, you just need to wind it on the coil.

tug of war

Again, you need to split into two teams. It is desirable that the forces in them are approximately equal. Players of both groups grab hands at opposite ends of a long rope or rope. Those who manage to pull the opponent over the line passing in the middle of the rope win. This game also has restrictions. So, it is not allowed to wrap a rope around the body or make it easier for yourself by squatting. It is better for crumbs not to participate in this fun - there is a risk of injury. Suddenly, someone falls on the child or steps on it?

Adults love to pull the rope. Play this game "at will". Which? For example, the losing team together depicts chickens. Here the kids will have fun!

Outdoor games not only develop strength, dexterity, ingenuity, develop fast response but also bring great joy to children. And outdoor games in the air bring also great benefit health.
There are a lot of games that can be played on the street. Some provide an opportunity to get to know peers and quickly find them mutual language, others teach to negotiate or put up, if conflicts suddenly arise, others help to overcome shyness. And all of them are a very exciting activity and great pleasure for the child.
Probably the most common and favorite children's toy is a ball. And it is no coincidence that so many games were invented with the ball.

One of them is the game "Parrots", equally well suited for both the smallest children and older children. For this game, you need a tennis ball or about the same size, and you can play it alone, you can do it together, or you can play it with a company. The game consists of doing several simple exercises with a ball:

• toss the ball several times and catch it, each time trying to throw it higher and higher;
• toss the ball and, before catching it, have time to clap your hands, increasing the number of claps with each next throw;
• toss the ball up, let it fall and catch it bouncing off the ground;
• holding the ball in your hand, let it go and catch it on the fly with the other hand;
• throw up the ball lying in the palm of your hand, turn your hand over and catch it with the back of the hand, throw it up again and catch it with your hands;
• put the hand with the ball behind the back, throw it so that it flies forward, and catch it with the other hand.

If the ball falls to the ground, then the other player gets the turn, and so on in turn.
Very fun, and at the same time, a simple ball game - "Edible-inedible", which perfectly trains mindfulness. All the children line up in a row, and the leader stands in front of them at a distance of several meters and throws a ball to each in turn, while naming any object that comes to his mind. If the item is edible, then the player must catch the ball, if not, hit or miss. The one who responded correctly takes a step forward, the wrong one takes a step back. The one who managed to get to the leader wins. As a reward, he himself becomes the leader. Usually this game is accompanied by bursts of laughter, because inattention can eat a chair or a car.
Girls are very fond of the game "I know" in which you can demonstrate not only dexterity, but also erudition. First, the task is set: to list five names of rivers, seas, cities, flowers, etc. The player hits the ball with his hand on the ground, saying one word for each hit, starting with "I know five ..." and then listing what was agreed upon. If the player makes a mistake or loses the ball, he loses his turn. The first one to complete the task wins.
But the game "Tens" was more fond of the boys. For this game, you need not only a ball, but also a wall with a relatively flat area in front of it. Each player in strict sequence must perform the following exercises:

• ten times as in volleyball to hit the ball against the wall;
• hit the ball nine times against the wall, hitting it from below with your palms;
• throw the ball eight times right leg so that he hits first on the ground, then on the wall, and then catch him with his hands;
• do the same seven times, only through the left leg;
• stand facing the wall and, legs apart, throw the ball six times from behind so that it slips between the legs, hits the ground, against the wall, and catches it with your hands;
• repeat the previous exercise five times, standing with your back to the wall;
• hit the ball four times against the wall, wait until it bounces off the ground and, without catching, hit the wall again, then catch it with your hands;
• fold your palms in a “boat” and three times, without dropping, hit the ball against the wall;
• hit the ball against the wall twice with fists brought together;
• hit the ball against the wall once with a straight finger.

At the end, pass the “exam”: repeat all the exercises once. And during the exam you can not giggle or laugh.
For the games "Potato", "Eleven" and "Bouncer" you already need a volleyball, these games are suitable for older children.
When playing Potato, everyone stands in a circle and plays volleyball, passing the ball to each other. Dropped sits in a circle. He can be "saved" by hitting him with a ball. If one of those sitting can intercept the flying ball, then everyone will be saved, and the one who missed the ball sits in the circle.
The game "Eleven" is very similar to "Potato". Everyone also becomes in a circle and the first passer says: “One”. The following players count passes to themselves, the eleventh player must hit the ball into the ground. If he miscalculated, he sits in a circle.
The game "Bouncer" requires a lot of skill and dexterity. Two players stand at the edges of a fairly spacious area. All others are in the center. Their task is to dodge the flying ball, and the task of the “bouncers” is to hit those running, then they will fly out of the game.
But, of course, not only with the ball you can play on the street.

"Hide and Seek" - this game is one of the most beloved, and more than one generation of kids have played it. The rules of the game are very simple. The host must find all the hidden ones. As soon as he finds someone, he runs with him in a race to the agreed place. The one who runs first is obliged to “catch”. The new leader becomes the last one caught. One of the varieties of this game is "Moscow hide and seek". "Moscow" differ from "ordinary" only at the beginning of the game. The host stands with his back to the other players, and one of them pats him on the shoulder. The host must guess the player who slapped him. If you guessed right, then this player runs or jumps to some place, if not, then the leader himself has to jump. And the rest of the guys are hiding at this time. Then the game continues as usual.

The most real adventure for children with unraveling tricky marks, unraveling intricate traces and gambling chase is the game "Cossacks - Robbers". The game is played by two teams. One remains in certain place and counts up to a predetermined number, after which he starts the chase. The other team runs away, showing the enemy the direction of their movement with arrows drawn in chalk. The task of the chasing is to find all the shooters, correctly orient themselves and overtake the evaders. The game teaches you to think quickly, think logically and navigate the terrain.
Varieties of "salok" are the games "kwacha" and "above the foot from the ground." Kwacha is played in two ways. In the first case, one player, "kvach", will catch up with other players running away from him. The one he catches up with becomes a "kwach". In the second case, everyone who can catch up with the “kvach” turns into his assistants. In the game "above the foot from the ground" it is allowed to catch only those players whose feet are on the ground. To escape from the chasing one, you can climb onto any elevation: a bench, a hill. Or you can lie on the ground and lift your legs up.
Great endurance and attention requires the game "Slower you go - you will continue." This game requires a fairly large area. Two straight lines are drawn at a distance of about 30 meters. One "start", the other "finish". All players, with the exception of the driver, stand at the start. The driver stands at the finish line with his back to everyone else. “You go quieter - you will continue,” says the driver. Then he commands: "One, two, three!". Players at the start start moving towards the finish line. But as soon as the driver turns, everyone should freeze. Those who did not have time are sent back to the start. The first one to reach the finish line wins.
The game "Traffic Light" is especially loved by young children. On the site, a conditional road several meters wide is drawn with two lines. All players, except for the “traffic light”, stand on one side of the road. "Traffic light" is on the road itself with its back to the others. He names any color that comes to mind. Those who have this color in their clothes get the right to calmly cross the road. The rest should have time to quickly cross the road before the "Traffic Light" turned around and caught them. Caught becomes a "Traffic Light".
Another game associated with color is “Paints”. In this game, one player is a “monk”, the second is a “seller”, all the rest are “paints”. Each "paint" chooses a color for itself and whispers it to the "seller". The "seller" with his "paints" sits down on a bench. The “monk” comes up to them and says: “I am a monk in blue pants, I came to you for paint.” To which the "seller" replies: "For what?" After that, the "monk" names any one color. If there is a named paint, then the “seller” informs the “monk” about this and offers to pay for it by clapping his palm a few times. During this time, the "paint" tries to escape. If she succeeds, she joins those sitting on the bench; if not, she becomes a “monk” herself. If the “monk” does not guess the color and the “paint” he named is not on the bench, then he must skip the circle on one leg and start all over again.
Classics is the favorite game of girls. Probably everyone has seen these "classics" painted on the pavement. Two columns of cells adjacent to each other, numbered in a circle from 1 to 10. They play with a pebble, sometimes with flat tin boxes. First, a pebble is thrown at the number 1, then, jumping on one leg and pushing the pebble with it, they throw it over all the “classes”. Having successfully passed through all the “classes”, without stepping on the line and not letting the pebble fall on it, they start the game from the beginning, but from the next “class”. Wins all "classes" that pass without errors.
Very often, having run and jumped, children still do not want to go home. Just for this case, more calm games are suitable, such as "Ringlet", "Cinderella", "Numbers".
When playing “Ringlet”, the guys hold their palms folded together in front of them, and the leader between them holds his hands, also folded “boat”, imperceptibly lowering a ring or other small object to someone. And after his words: “Ring, ring, go out on the porch”, the owner of the item should quickly jump out of the line of players, while the rest are trying to keep him. If he succeeds, then he becomes the leader.
"Cinderella" game, when everyone sits down on a bench, everyone takes off one shoe and throws it into a pile. One turns away and says to whom to give the shoe indicated by the other. At the end of the game, everyone ends up wearing unpaired shoes, which turns out to be very funny and usually causes a storm of delight.
"Numbers" game, when a certain number is guessed by the leader. The rest of the players try to guess it, and the leader with the words "more" and "less" directs them in the right direction. The one who guesses is a prize. The game is calm, but can be very fun if you dream up with prizes.

And this is not all the games that children can play in the fresh air. Very often they come up with their own, no less fun and exciting, because the creative vein is inherent in them by nature. And let them play, if only they were healthy and happy.

Playing outdoors is one of the most rewarding pastimes for children. They contribute to the health of the child, his positive mood. Also, since many of these games are team games, they develop a healthy collectivism in children, a willingness to help others and, if necessary, subordinate their desires to common interests. These qualities will be very useful to them in adulthood.
Scientists have proven that children's games in the street, physical activity and fun in motion activate the development of the brain and, in particular, the growth of connections between neurons. The flow of information between cells increases, thinking improves. In addition, being in the fresh air, the child, running and jumping, increases the flow of oxygen to the brain, which can be compared with fuel for our body.
These games can be played almost anywhere. In the courtyard high-rise building, where there is play complexes for children, in the park, at the school stadium, wasteland, during a picnic. In the latter case, along with children, adults can also participate in games.
There are many types of children's games on the street.

The winners are those participants who have never been driving or have visited this role less than others. The role of the first driver when calculating the results of the game is not taken into account.

Rule: it is not allowed to drop the ball, as well as to throw it over one or more players. In such cases, the player who made a mistake becomes the driver.

To complicate the game, you can arrange the children in a circle at a distance of arms extended to the sides. Then the ball is not passed, but thrown. The driver can touch the ball both in the hands of the players and on the fly. If the driver touched the ball on the fly, then the one who last threw the ball goes to drive.

SNAKE

Children take each other's hands, forming a chain.

One of the children is chosen as the leader. He should be at the beginning of the chain. At the sign of the educator, the leader runs, dragging all the participants in the game along with him, describes various figures on the run: in a circle, around trees, making sharp turns, jumping over obstacles, leads the chain with a snake, twisting it around the last player, then develops it. The snake stops, twists around the leader.

You can scatter at the signal of the leader, then quickly restore the snake.

BEES

All players, except for three drivers, stand behind the conditional line.

Ahead, 15-20 m away, they put a jumping stand, which acts as a Christmas tree. Behind the counter are three drivers, the so-called bees.

Having learned the couplets, the players come out from behind the line forward, raising their knees high with the words:

“We went out to the forest lawn, raising our legs higher, through bushes and tussocks, through branches and stumps. Who walked so high - did not stumble, did not fall.

Having spoken the words, they stop near the Christmas tree;

“Look - the hollow of a tall Christmas tree (they show raising their legs and standing on their toes, like a tall Christmas tree). Angry bees fly out!

The “bees” begin to circle around the Christmas tree and, imitating the flight with the movements of the hands bent at the elbows, say: “Well, we are biting bees.”

The rest of the players are talking; “We can’t catch up with the swift-footed ones, we are not afraid of a swarm of bees, let’s run home now.”

After being told the last word, they run away over the line, "Bees" run after them, trying to knock them down or "sting".

Those who have been taunted to the point of being stung are considered "stung". Then new “bees” are assigned according to the counting rhyme. The former become the rest of the players.
The game is repeated several times. The winner is the one who has never been “stung” or with whom this has happened fewer times, He is proclaimed the fastest.

GET A PLACE

With the help of a counting rhyme, a driver is chosen. All other players stand in a circle. Starting the game, the driver runs past the players, spots one of them and continues to run further in a circle.

The stained one quickly runs in the opposite direction from the driver. Whoever of them runs first to a free place in the circle takes it, and the late one becomes the driver.

Rules:

1. Children run only around the circle.

2. Those standing in a circle should not detain those running.

3. If the children run to a free place at the same time, then they stand in a circle, and a new leader is selected.

You can play on any platform. It is desirable that it be large and there are no obstacles for running.

The participants of the game stand in a circle at a distance of one step from each other, everyone's hands are lowered. If there are a lot of children, you can organize two circles of players.

All participants in the game scatter around the site, the tag catches up with them. Whom he touches with his hand becomes a tag.

Rules:

1. During the game, children need to carefully monitor the change of drivers.

2. Fifteen should not run after only one player.

There are several variants of this game.

You can play tag with "house".

Then two circles are drawn along the edge of the site - these are “houses”. Children, running away from the driver, can run into the "house". Here they will be safe, since the tag has no right to salve in the "houses". But if he taunted the player on the playing field, he becomes a tag.

Options:

1. In order not to be stained, you need to sit down or stand on some object.

2. When the tag catches up with the player, he can jump on two legs like a bunny, and he can no longer be stained.

3. The player, when he is spotted, if he is fast and dexterous, can immediately return the spotting to the driver, and the former driver becomes the tag.

4. All players, except for the tag, choose a name for themselves from the world of birds, plants, animals. Fifteen does not stain the one who called his name in time.

5. Interrupted tags. Fifteen in this game needs to loudly name the name of the player whom he wants to tarnish. But if, during the pursuit, the tag sees that there is another participant in the game next to him, he changes his mind, calling him by name and tries to catch up with him and tarnish him. Stained is out of the game.

According to the rules, the tag first calls the player by name, and only then catches up with him and stains him. In the game, the tag can change its mind many times.

6. Circular tags. The participants of the game stand in a circle, each marks his place with a circle. Two players stand behind the circle at some distance from each other, one of them is a tag, he catches up with the second. If the runner sees that the tag is catching up with him, he calls one of those close in the circle by name. He leaves his place and runs in a circle from the tag, and the player takes his place. The free circle can also be occupied by a tag, then the one who is left without a place becomes a tag. He catches up with the player who ran out of the circle.

Rules:

1. It is not allowed to run through the circle.

2. A player running away from a tag can run no more than one lap.

3. If the tag taunted the evader, then they change places.

In the game, children should be very careful: if the player gapes, he will let his friend down. Children stand in a circle at a distance of one step from each other, facing the center. The tag can be replaced if he ran two laps, did not tarnish and did not take an empty place. The game will become more fun if the evaders quickly change places.

THIRD WHEEL

Children stand in pairs one after another, facing in the center of the circle.
Two people start the game, one of them is the driver, he stands 3-4 steps behind the one who runs away from him. The runner counts loudly to three and after the word "three" runs away from the driver. In order not to be touched, he stands in front of a couple. Before getting up, he shouts on the run: "The third extra." The one who stands last in this game runs away from the driver. If the driver managed to knock out the runaway, then they change roles.

Rules:

1. During the game it is forbidden to run through the circle.

2. The evader must not run more than two laps.

3. As soon as the evader runs into the circle, he must immediately stand in front of some pair. Anyone who breaks this rule becomes a leader.

If the driver managed to pin down the evader and they switched roles, then the evader can stand in front of one of the pairs after a short run. Sometimes the driver cannot catch up with the players running away from him for a long time, as they are stronger than him and run faster. In this case, you need to replace him, but not to blame, but to positively evaluate his efforts.

The task of the scout team is to carry the ball over its own line, the task of the players of the other team is to prevent this. Game: The host calls the number out loud, and the players standing opposite (having this number) run up to the ball. If the sentry gapes, the scout grabs the ball and runs away with it to his house, and the sentry goes into captivity, stands behind the scout. If both players simultaneously run out to the middle, then the task of the scout is to, after performing a series of distracting exercises (arm movements, jumping in place and with a turn, lunges, etc.), divert the attention of the sentry (he repeats after the scout these movements) and carry the ball away. If the scout grabbed the ball, but the sentry overtook him and tagged him with his hand, the scout becomes a prisoner, otherwise he wins the duel. The game continues until all the numbers have taken part in the game. Prisoners are counted and released to their teams. The game is repeated, while the players change roles. As a result, victory is on the side of the team that managed to take more prisoners. The rules of the game oblige the sentry to repeat all the movements of the scout, otherwise he loses.

Having received an answer, the driver immediately turns to another, to a third, and so on, until one of the players makes a mistake.

A question is asked (or a task is given) quickly and suddenly. Just as quickly you need to give an answer (or perform the required movement). If a question is asked that is difficult to answer right away, then you can say: “I don’t know,” which is already the answer, but just don’t be silent.

It would seem that these rules are very simple and easy to remember, but in the game they are often violated due to the suddenness with which the driver addresses the participants in the game. Either the one to whom the question is addressed answers it himself, or the neighbor to the right of surprise will be confused and will not immediately realize that he is just supposed to answer.

When the word "air" sounds, the player must give the name of the bird. At the word “fire”, everyone needs to turn around several times, waving their hands. The ball is then returned to the driver. The one who made a mistake is out of the game

The driver is alone, he has no nest. There is also a presenter in this game who pronounces the words: “squirrels”, “bumps”, “nuts”. If he said "squirrels", then all the squirrels leave their nests and run to others. At this time, the driver takes a free place in any nest, becoming a squirrel. The one who did not have enough space in the nests becomes the leader. If the host says: “nuts”, then the nuts change places and the driver, who has taken a place in the nest, becomes a nut. The driver and leader can be different people, and both functions can be performed by one person. The leaders can be given a command: “squirrels, cones, nuts”, and then everyone changes places at once.

The one who eventually does not have enough space becomes the driver.

23. Crocodiles (8-16 years old)
The squad is divided into two equal teams. The first team conceives some cool word and selects a person from the other team who will have to "show" this word. Moreover, this player is forbidden to make sounds and write letters, but active gestures, breathtaking facial expressions, antics, obscene gestures, and so on, are used, depending on the player’s imagination. His team tries to understand the meaning of what is shown and gives out answer options. It is important to select as many synonyms as possible, then the probability of guessing increases linearly.
After guessing/not guessing, the teams switch roles.
