After all, I really, really want this!

I teach lessons at school and at home.

I want to be like my mother.

She can do everything: both sewing and knitting,

And it’s delicious to cook and wipe off the dust.

Educator.

Previously, families in Rus' were large, friendly, hard-working. There were 10, 20 or more people in the family. Such a house was a real fortress. Home and family were spoken of with great respect. Since ancient times, it was believed that a child should not just grow like a tree or grass. He was brought up through the word, movement, introduced into the world of rules and traditions.

From infancy, the child fell asleep to a lullaby, which not only put him to sleep - it told him something about the world, about its kindness. Without understanding the meaning of the songs, the child caught her mood and felt peace and protection.

Educator. Families are all different. How are they different? Of course, with your habits, customs, atmosphere, traditions.

Educator.

There is such folk wisdom: “Tradition is the basis of the family”.

What are traditions?

Let's clarify the meaning of this word in Ozhegov's dictionary.

Traditions are something that has been passed on from one generation to another, inherited from ancestors (fathers, mothers, grandfathers, grandmothers.)

Traditions are play, joy, creativity, and the ability to communicate with each other. Each family has its own traditions. Good traditions strengthen the family and give life to the family. Each family has its own way of involving little ones in common family traditions. It could be family watching your favorite movie, spending five minutes in the morning at breakfast, reading a book out loud, watching family photos and much more.

What traditions exist in your families?

New Year is a good reason to add something new to your life. And it doesn’t matter whether your family is young or not - it’s never too late to resume old traditions or come up with new ones!

Perhaps it is these bright and joyful moments that your child will remember, will remember them with warmth after many years and will keep them in his family.

Here are ideas for traditions, rituals and just pleasant everyday little things that you can take note of.


- Celebrate the New Year with your family.

Make an advent calendar or countdown to the New Year.

Craft Christmas decorations and make a figurine of an animal symbolizing
the coming year.

On the eve of the holiday, hide small gifts or notes from Santa Claus under the child’s pillow.

Place holiday harbingers around the apartment.

A week before the New Year, give up everything tasty so that holiday treats bring real joy not only to children, but also to adults!


- Collect unnecessary things and take them to charitable organizations.

Send homemade greeting cards.

Go to the library before the New Year and choose a thematic book there that you will read every evening.

Put books about Christmas, New Year and just on the shelf winter themes. Read them on the eve of the holiday and throughout the winter, and then put them away again. Every year we find new books that are age-appropriate for children.


- Make a photo album with pictures of the most interesting and significant events of this year
of the year. Before the holiday, look at albums from previous years.

Write down on paper the saddest, most offensive and unpleasant moments of the past year, especially if they bother your child (or you), and burn the list.

Write a list of promises and wishes for the next year. Read it next year and note what you managed to implement. You can also cut and paste pictures from magazines if your child cannot write.

Before the New Year, change something in the interior of the house: rearrange the furniture or replace the covers and upholstery on it, change the curtains, tablecloth, towels or shower curtain.

For the holiday, take out the New Year's service and tablecloth. For example, made by yourself.

Do Christmas costumes to all family members and pets.


- Every year, arrange a photo shoot for the whole family, including grandparents and other close relatives. Or just take a photo every year in front of the Christmas tree. Over time, there will be more and more such photographs, and it will be very interesting to watch how family members change.

Make a photo album with pictures of significant events of the past year. Remember and discuss the happiest moments.

Decorate the Christmas tree, prepare salads and decorate the apartment while listening to good New Year's songs. These could be soulful retro hits of Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong or old Soviet songs.

Bake gingerbread or cookies. Collect all kinds of baking molds and decorations and make as many different gingerbread cookies as possible. Put them all in one bag and invite your guests to pull out one gingerbread at a time: what falls out is what awaits them in the coming year. You'll have to use a lot of imagination to figure out what a squirrel, clown, star or house means. You can also hang gingerbread cookies on the tree and, starting from January 1st, eat one piece at a time, and when there is not a single gingerbread left, remove the tree.


- The very first person starts decorating the Christmas tree. junior member families. You can hang first homemade toy, for example, with the symbol of the coming year. Or start decorating the Christmas tree with a new toy every year.

When the Christmas tree is decorated, gather with the whole family and say in unison: “Christmas tree, light up!” and turn on the garland.

Figure out how to give gifts on New Year's Eve: discreetly place gifts under the tree so that the child opens them the night before or on New Year's Eve, put gifts in one large bag and then distribute them to everyone gathered, gifts are given by Santa Claus, the child finds gifts under the tree the next day morning.

Give your grandparents photo gifts every year.

Give gifts to all pets, be it a dog, a hamster or an aquarium fish.

Watch the same movie with the whole family every year, for example “Home Alone”, “Frost”, “Carnival Night”, “Miracle on 34th Street”.


- Leave a special gift under the Christmas tree for the apartment in which you live. This could be a new painting, a carpet, or even a “certificate” for installing windows or a new kitchen. And also smaller items to replace those that may have become unusable over the years: a toothbrush cup, cutting boards, a trash can or a door mat.

Make peace with friends and relatives before the New Year, ask for forgiveness, so as not to bear resentment in the coming year.

Thank each of those gathered at the table for some specific spiritual qualities or actions. Or just take turns giving compliments and good words each other.

Place almonds in a cake or salad. Whoever gets it will have a happy event in the New Year.

Place small gifts in slippers every day until the Old New Year, if the child did not forget to put the slippers under the Christmas tree. Also, gifts (for example, just candy) can be placed under the pillow or in a Christmas stocking.


- Every year, make a gnome from the trunk of a used Christmas tree.

On Christmas Eve (the evening before Christmas) put twelve different dishes or at least twelve different products on the table.

Fortune telling at Christmas, for example with wax. Pour the melted wax into a bowl of water, and when it hardens, place it on a contrasting background and try to guess what kind of figure it is and what it reminds you of.

I already know...

I know how difficult it is to organize a holiday when people gather around the same table several generations. Some people want to watch New Year's programs, others just want to eat delicious food and listen to jokes. Children run between the table and the Christmas tree, the hostess with salads - from the kitchen to the living room.

That's all! There is nothing to remember. After the chimes start to yawn and crawl?

No! The festive mood is the work of the most talented, mischievous and cheerful people. Us with you..

Celebrating the Year of the Rat 2020

Look interesting competitions and in other scenarios: , (this is my favorite selection),
Here's the script!

Prize selections

Every year I update a selection of cute little things that are suitable as an incentive for participating in competitions with links to the store.

Sequence of competitions- your choice. I’m just reminding you that you can use it when creating your own script for a New Year’s home party.

Ceremonial part (comic reward for successes in the past year)

I host an awards show every year. From the Internet (look for “Certificates” in the pictures), I print out blank Certificates of Honor and Diplomas, and enter my own text there for each family member.

For example, I have a one-year-old niece. He received the following certificate: “Artem Evgenievich is awarded for masterfully mastering the technique of upright walking and using the word “Give” instead of all other words of the Russian language.”

My husband’s mother filled out documents for several months in a row, so she was awarded a large chocolate medal “For following certificates.”

My daughter has made progress in developing flexibility and received an “A” in physical education, so she has a diploma “For building a strategic bridge (okay... a bridge) between the legs and arms.”

I awarded my son for the most sonorous pronunciation of the sound “Rrrrrrr” (learned in December)

Myself, of course, for my blogging successes along with maternal concerns. It’s difficult, why don’t I deserve a medal?

Election of Father Frost and Snow Maiden

I propose not to hold a vote, but simply write and add up in one hat the names of all the men, and in another hat- the names of all the ladies. The Snow Maiden is 60, and Santa Claus is 1 month old? Great! We put a hat and cap on the chosen ones, take a photo as a souvenir.

You can come up with roles for all the other guests. Only now write these roles on pieces of paper and hide them in Kinder capsules, and the guests will pull it themselves. For example, I have only 10 guests. I wrote down the roles like this:

  • Grandfather Frost, Snow Maiden (whoever happens to dance together)
  • The sheep is the symbol of the year (show this animal and “bleat” happiness for everyone in the new year)
  • Snow Baba and The Snow Queen(even if it falls to male representatives, we put on crowns and ask them to sing the duet “Oh, Frost-Frost”)
  • “I’m just the most important one here.” The one who gets this should say a toast and congratulate everyone on the upcoming New Year.
  • Snowflakes (all others). They also have crowns! Now we put them next to each other and ask them to perform the “Dance of the Little Snowflakes.” Naturally, we borrow music from little swans :-). It will be fun, I promise!

Comic fortune telling

After my sister came across a rattle, and I got the car keys, I believe in this fortune-telling.))) At the end of December I graduate from driving school and for a month now I have been bearing the title AUNT IRA.

What can you wrap in a napkin or wrapping paper? All, what can be deciphered as a prediction. A screwdriver? There will be repairs. Coin- to good earnings, jar of vitamins- excellent health all year round, theater ticket- bohemian life, tassel- to the opening hidden talents, globe- will interesting travels, folded thin handbag- for successful shopping, mirror- someone will become very prettier in the new year, etc.

More options:

  • A book - you will learn new things
  • Letter - good news
  • Watch - interesting events await
  • Ring - you will receive an unexpected offer (even if it’s for work)

Or so. Let's pull out "Fortune of Fortune", I assure you, everyone will be pleased! For adult company the list can be supplemented with predictions of changes in your personal life.

  • You will be the most successful in work and business in the new year
  • You will study the most in 2013
  • You will travel the most
  • You will discover new talents
  • The most pleasant and unexpected surprise awaits you!
  • You will become the pride of our entire family
  • You will show your greatest sporting achievements
  • You will get the most best gifts for the New Year
  • Your most cherished dream will come true
  • You will have many good changes in your life

Let's remember our childhood

The competition can be held immediately after the presentation of photographs of your relatives “I am at the Christmas tree” is shown. Offer to read a short New Year's poem “like then, at 3 years old.” Prepare the quatrains in advance.

Another option is to read poetry, imitating a cartoon character. And once I suggested to someone born in the year of the Rat to read like a rat, in the year of the dog - like a dog, a dragon talked about snowflakes, a tiger growled about an elegant Christmas tree.

Or so (we have 2018 - the year of the Dog). Poems are read by a Sleepy Dog, a Kind Dog, a tired, cunning, greedy, cocky, etc...

Dancing!

There is no need to invent anything special here. We launch proven “Dance of the Ducklings”, “Gypsy Girl”, “Polka”, “Lezginka”, “Ledka-Enka”, Oriental melodies for belly dancing, and so on.

Couples "grandmother-grandson", "grandfather and granddaughter" always win, don't forget to reward.

A story without adjectives

Old timeless fun. Write a story about your family "Unusual adventures in the Far Far Away Kingdom" no adjectives. Let your guests name innocuous but bright words (“glossy”, “pompous”, “abstruse”, “super-duper-savvy”, Lumpy”, “loud”, “slippery”). Then insert the words into the prepared text instead of ellipses in the order in which they were named. It always turns out funny.

Here it comes... New Year. The whole ... family is assembled: ... dad, ... mom, ... Aunt Nina and ... Masha. How beautifully decorated... is the Christmas tree! There are... toys and... garlands hanging on it. There’s just so much that’s not on… the table! This is... herring under a fur coat,... Olivier,... meat. When we eat all this, we will become very...!

And we will also have... dancing! Grandfather will dance...dance with...grandmother, and mother in...dress will dance with...dad to the very...music!

Now about the gifts! The most... gift will be from Vova, and the most... from Masha.

What else does this site have for family fun?

If there are many teenagers among the guests - . There’s everything there for a birthday, but if you change the description of the competitions a little, it’s quite suitable for the New Year.

A MUST watch for our holiday!
