IN new year holidays, which last for several days, a large company gathers around the table. Some guests leave, others come. These days there is an opportunity to communicate with all your friends. It happens that people who do not know each other meet in one place. It's hard for strangers to find common topics for conversations, and awkward silent situations arise. In this case, the owners need to prepare New Year's pranks in advance to defuse the situation. After all, it is known that laughter liberates people and relieves tension. You can give each guest a task in advance so that he finds some fun game for several people. In this article you will find various New Year jokes, pranks, and competitions to entertain your company.
Games to warm up modest audiences
When getting together with friends, you can use the following New Year's pranks and jokes that do not require leaving the table. You can start by decorating the Christmas tree by replacing traditional toys with spoons, fruits, light bulbs, sweet decorations and small bottles of alcohol. Declare that this is your New Year's table. Greet your guests at the doorstep dressed in funny costumes of cartoon characters. At the table, don’t rack your brains trying to come up with a toast. Use the alphabet and start your wishes with the letter you get. The most original congratulations should be rewarded. In between drinks, you can play the newscast. To do this, the presenter writes several words independent of each other on paper. Anyone who wishes should compose a coherent and funny piece of news from the proposed list. New Year's pranks at the table will only warm up the audience, and they will be ready for something more original.
Hypnosis
Very funny prank, in which everyone present will have fun. Several volunteers and a hypnotist (leader) participate. Volunteers should be seated on chairs in a row. The presenter sits opposite the participants with a lit candle. One of the guests turns off the light.
After this, the hypnotist hands each player a flat plate, and the hypnosis session begins. The presenter asks everyone to close their eyes, rub the bottom of the dinner plate, and then perform a simple action - for example, scratching their chin, forehead, rubbing their nose or cheek, alternating with shrugging their shoulders, tilting their heads, or stamping their feet. You can come up with a lot of actions, the main thing is that such New Year's pranks are based on the fact that the bottom of the plate (it can be any cutlery) is heavily smoked. At the end of the session, when the lights are turned on, the faces of the participants are smeared with soot. When the meaning of what happened reaches those present, everyone will have fun.
Jokes with pepper
After congratulations, entertainment at the table and a few glasses of champagne, you can remember New Year's jokes for adults and guests who know how to have fun.
A very funny joke using flour has a long history. Two participants sit facing each other. An inflatable ball is placed between them, and the players are blindfolded. Everyone must blow the ball towards the opponent. At this time, the main item is replaced with a plate of flour.
If you want to add a little creepiness to New Year's pranks, go with a volunteer in front of those present into the next room, while taking a burning candle with you. Without turning on the light, ask the participant to extinguish the flame by shouting. The rest of the guests will wait on you warily and wonder what is happening in the room where you are.
For the next joke, choose a victim, place him in the middle of the room and throw a sheet over him. The rules are as follows: guests must wish for one thing that the participant is wearing, and he, in turn, will try to guess it. For each incorrect answer, the victim removes the named item of clothing. The joke is that guests must, according to the rules, make a wish on the sheet. Everything is within the law and in compliance with decency.
Difficult choice
New Year's pranks, home skits, and jokes can be much more fun than those hosted by the host at corporate parties. The fact is that people who are close and similar in many ways gather at home. As a rule, the guests being pranked are not offended, but have fun with everyone else.
For the next game, a young man is needed who must choose one of two girls located in a pre-prepared room. The girls sit at the edges of a makeshift bench made from stools and covered with a blanket. The presenter tells the guy the rules of the game. They consist of the player sitting next to the girl he liked, without offending the other girl. You have 15 seconds to choose. A gentleman, and these are the majority in a cheerful company, will sit in the middle, demonstrating his affection for each participant.
The funny thing is that there is no chair between the girls. A stretched blanket does not reveal its absence. The illusion of a long bench is created. As a result, the chooser falls into the hole with a roar.
Fair debate
Remembering New Year's jokes, practical jokes, and competitions, the owner can invite the participants to jump over a coin for a bet. After a person has been found, he stands in the middle of the room and prepares to jump. The owner calmly takes the penny and places it in the far corner of the room. Of course, no one can jump over it. Then the presenter, offering to jump over two rubles, promises that he will put them far from the wall. When the participant leaves, the owner puts in different sides on the ruble, but far from each other. And in this case the player will not jump over them at the same time.
A similar prank with a newspaper. The host bets that the contestant will not be able to push him off a piece of newspaper before the host pushes him off. After a rival is found, the owner lays a newspaper under the door and stands on it from the side from which the door does not open. Who do you think will be the first to fly off the newspaper page?
Fun maze
Many New Year's pranks, home scenes, gags and jokes are familiar to those present. Therefore, you need to choose a game that has not yet been used in your company. You can supplement it with something or modify it a little.
The following joke will make everyone present laugh throughout the entire competition. To do this, a clothesline must be stretched in the room so that it creates a maze with obstacles that you will need to step over, crawl under, or bend over. A guest who wishes to participate is shown a room and asked to remember the location of the obstacle course. Next, he needs to go through the maze blindfolded without destroying it. The audience is tasked with giving hints to the player.
The joke is that after the participant is blindfolded, the rope must be removed. The victim goes into a non-existent labyrinth, stepping, climbing, bending under a rope that does not exist. The guests, laughing and giving hints, direct the player to the end of the maze.
Competition with clothespins
To conduct this competition you will need 20 clothespins. Two young men and two girls are participating in the drawing. The task is simple - find all the clothespins on the partners. Guys, blindfolded, look for 5 placed clothespins on their partner's clothes by touch. The spectators count the clamps found in unison.
Next, the partners change roles with the condition that the guys will each have 10 clothespins. After hanging, the girls are blindfolded and begin to look for clips on the guys’ clothes. At the same time, the presenter quietly removes three clamps from each player. After seven clothespins have been removed, the girls are confusedly looking for the remaining ones, and the spectators encourage the players with clapping. After some time, the presenter stops the competition with the announcement that the girls failed and receive a consolation prize - three clothespins they did not find.
New Year's lottery - drawing
In addition to competitions, pranks and jokes, you can entertain guests with anecdotes or funny stories. New Year's drawings at the table can also be held in the form of win-win lotteries. To do this, you need to collect small things in the house that you have not used and that you will never need. You come up with funny names for them and write quatrains. For example, I found a spare school eraser for erasing pencil marks. What an elastic band is not washing machine? Write the name in lottery ticket. We write down the corresponding verse on a separate piece of paper. Eg: washing machine will correct all your mistakes. New guest at the beginning of the holiday he pulls out a lottery ticket and throughout the evening wonders what he will actually win?
During the holiday, the host announces a prize draw and names the item written in the lottery. The owner responds, and the presenter reads the poem and presents the prize. This lottery is appropriate for any celebration.
New Year's competitions and sweepstakes are very relevant, as they evoke a lot of positivity, have fun, and unite strangers and don't let you get bored.
Thanks to New Year's competitions, a home holiday will become a bright, unusual and memorable event.

Fun mitten
Guests stand in a large circle near the tree, cheerful New Year's music plays and a mitten with forfeits goes around in a circle. The host can turn off the music at any time, trying to do it so that each of the guests has a mitten. Whoever the music stops on takes the phantom out of his mitten and performs a certain action, for example, dancing the hopak or transforming into the president and congratulating his people, or maybe doing the splits or kissing a neighbor. In general, forfeits can be absolutely anything (it all depends on the company).

It’s very funny when, in the middle of a toast, one of the guests suddenly crows or starts dancing a twist on the table.
New Year's Villain
For this competition you need to print out several photos (pictures) of a New Year's villain, for example, Baba Yaga or the Grinch - the holiday thief. The presenter must use scissors to make a kind of mosaic from whole photos (simply cut each photo in a chaotic order). The mosaic of each picture with a New Year's villain is packaged in a separate box or bag. Guests are divided into teams of approximately 3 people. Each team receives a box with pieces of the picture and at the command “start” the guests begin to put together the puzzle. But that is not all. The whole picture (photo) with the New Year's villain will hang on the Christmas tree. And, as soon as a team has successfully completed the puzzle and seen who the New Year’s villain is, its participants must find this villain on the tree and save the New Year from him (simply tear the picture off the tree). Whoever did it won.
Everybody dance
Everyone is standing around the tree. The presenter turns on cheerful New Year's music and names a hero for each song. And the participants must dance in the appropriate style, for example, now snowflakes are dancing, and now - hares, and now - seals, and now - shy Snow Maidens and so on. The most artistic and active ones will receive prizes.

In China there is a ritual - to burn money for the New Year so that there will be prosperity and happiness in the coming year.

Whichever guest burns (with the help of a lighter and a bowl) more money than the rest (in total) is recognized as the winner, and at the same time the richest person of the coming year.
Symbol of the year
When everyone is tired of running, jumping and galloping, you can devote time to the competition for imagination and creativity. Each participant must, in 5 minutes, come up with something to make out of and actually make a symbol of the year, for example, make a muzzle or an entire pig (dog, rooster, etc.) from food on the table. The symbol of the year can be made from anything that comes to mind (money and coins; Christmas decorations or any other interior items). Based on the voting results of all guests, the most beautiful and creative crafts, and its author will be awarded a prize.
Father Frost and Snow Maiden of different nationalities
Guests are divided into pairs and not necessarily only: guy-girl. Each pair identifies its own Santa Claus and Snow Maiden. Each couple takes turns taking their phantom out of the bag, which indicates a specific nationality, for example, Chinese, Germans, ancient Russians, Egyptians, Armenians, Georgians, and so on. After all the couples have pulled out their forfeits and found out their nationality, each couple in turn goes to the center and congratulates the guests of the corresponding nationality. It will be fun and interesting for everyone to take New Year's greetings from Santa Claus - the Chinese and his Snow Maiden or from the Old Slavonic heroes of the New Year. And the prize, as always, is for the most artistic and active.
Wearing masks
All guests honestly close their eyes, the host puts on masks for everyone. Only the host knows which masks will go to whom, but the guest himself will not see his own mask. When the masks are on, the guests open their eyes and look at each other. For some time, guests of the holiday should communicate with each other as it should be to communicate with a “hero” in a specific mask, for example, you can offer meat to a lion and call him “his majesty” or “king”; you can ask Santa Claus when there will be gifts or how long it takes to fly on a sleigh to our country, and so on. Guests who quickly guess which hero mask they are wearing will receive prizes.
Dolphins in a snowdrift
Participants are divided into two teams with an equal number of people and line up. In front of each team there is a chair on which there is a basin or other container full of cut out snowflakes. Among these snowflakes there should be the same number of candies hidden as there are participants in the team. At the command “start”, each participant in turn runs up to the bowl, dives in with his head and takes out one candy, then a second, a third, and so on until the end. Whose team completes the task the fastest and passes its test is the winner.

Game "Upside Down"
The presenter asks the players one by one questions in poetic form. The participants' task is to answer funny in rhyme and name the correct answer. Long thoughts lead to dropping out of the game. Hints from other participants are also prohibited (whoever gave a hint leaves the game). The last player remaining wins.
Examples of questions and answers:
Down from the branch
On the branch again
Jumps quickly... cow (monkey)
The competition involves male-female pairs. Each pair receives 2 apples. Partners stand in front of each other. Then all participants are blindfolded. The essence of the competition is to eat an apple from your partner's hand as quickly as possible. At the same time, you cannot feed yourself. The winner is the pair that gnaws each other's apples faster than the rest.
A minimum of 3 male-female pairs participate in the competition. A handkerchief is tied around the neck of one of the partners (in a loose knot). As soon as the music starts playing, the second participant must, without using his hands, using only his teeth, untie the scarf around his partner’s neck. It is forbidden to help him. The pair that completes the task faster than the rest wins.
To conduct the competition you will need empty wine or champagne bottles, pencils and strong thread. As many players as there are empty bottles can participate.
The bottles are placed in the middle of the room in a circle. Competitors use a long thread to tie pencils to their belts so that they hang almost to their knees. It is very important that the pencils are on the back side of each participant. With these dangling pencils, players must hit the bottleneck. You can squat, kneel, bend. You can't help with your hands. The winner is the participant who gets the pencil into the bottle the fastest.
Game "Snowman"
Anyone can participate in the recreational relay race. To play, you need to prepare an easel and attach whatman paper to it. On a large sheet of paper, you need to draw a big snowman in advance, but forget about such a detail as the nose. It should not be drawn, but separately cut out of colored paper and given a cone shape.
Participants take turns approaching the easel. They are blindfolded and given a snowman's nose, which is secured with double-sided tape. Then the players are given a good spin and told to attach the nose to the snowman. The winner is the one who sticks the part in the right place on whatman paper.
Participants are divided equally into 2 teams. Trays are placed at both ends of the room. At the beginning of the room there are two empty ones, and at the end - filled with tangerines (the same number on each tray). The first two players from each team are given a tablespoon. The participants’ task is to run to a full tray with a spoon, put one tangerine on it without using their hands, and slowly bring it to their team’s empty tray. If the tangerine falls, you need to pick it up with a spoon and continue the relay race. Whichever team transfers all the tangerines from the full to the empty tray the fastest will win.
Game "Hibernating Bear"
To play the game you will need 3 gymnastic hoops. A group of children plays the role of bunnies, and one child plays the role of a hibernating bear. When the music starts playing, the bunnies go for a walk. They jump near the bear, trying to wake him up. They can sing, dance, laugh, clap and tap their feet on the floor as long as the music plays. When the musical accompaniment subsides, the bear wakes up, and the bunnies hide in hoop houses lying on the floor. If there is a large group of guys, and there are only 3 hoops on the floor, you can hide in them in twos or threes. The bunny that was caught by the bear (who did not have time to hide in the hoop) begins to play the role of a bear. The game continues until interest disappears.
The game involves 10 people. For the competition you will need 9 chairs. All chairs should be placed in a large circle. It is better if they stand at a certain distance from each other. Participants, having heard the music, begin to walk in a circle. You cannot hold on to the back of a chair. At the end of the musical accompaniment, the children quickly sit on chairs. The participant who does not have enough chair is eliminated. After 1 player is eliminated, 1 chair is also taken. At the end of the competition, 2 participants and 1 chair remain. The one who sits on the last chair wins.
The competition involves 2 teams of 2 people. Each group gets big air balloons, double-sided tape, scissors and markers of different colors.
The participants' task is to connect the balls using double-sided tape to make a snowman. Then you need to decorate the snowman and prepare him for the New Year. You can draw his eyes, nose, mouth, hair, buttons, or any other element. You have 5 minutes to complete the task.
