Every woman knows the whole scheme of a feast from childhood: a table set according to all the rules of etiquette, delicious dishes, smartly dressed guests, laughter and fuss, congratulations and toasts.

The soul simply requires entertainment, as they say, not only bread, but also circuses. How can you make a holiday special, unlike others? Of course, organize fun contests for guests!

Some of them are very childish, others are frankly adult. It is up to you to choose, based on the number of people at the party, their age and interests.
Competition "in the mittens ..."
This entertainment is perfect for young peoplecompanies. To conduct it, you need to prepare two pairs of mittens, preferably made of thick material, and two men's button-down shirts. Two teams of two people participate - a guy and a girl. The men need to blindfold themselves and put on mittens, and the girls need to put on shirts. The young man who undresses his partner faster, unbuttoning all the buttons, wins and the couple receives the coveted award. Well, give the losing couple a consolation prize.
Zoo
This game is designed for children aged 6-7 years, howeverIt is very popular at weddings and anniversary parties. The competition requires 7-8 people. Each participant chooses an animal to represent and gets acquainted with the other "residents" of the zoo, showing the characteristic movements of this animal. When the acquaintance is over, a person not participating in the competition chooses who will start the game, and the beginner shows his animal and the animal of another participant, who in turn shows himself and another participant, and so on. The game continues until someone makes a mistake, that is, shows the animal of his opponent incorrectly. The losing participants are eliminated one by one. The further the game goes, the more difficult it is to make a mistake, because you can get confused and show an already eliminated "animal".
Competition for your men
For this competition you will need newspapers ormagazines of different directions. The participating men must show how they can read aloud, and the one who reads more expressively and loudly wins. Each participant is seated in a chair or on a stool, asked to roll up one leg of his trousers to the knee and cross his legs. The bare leg, of course, must be on top. The men simultaneously begin to read aloud, trying to shout down their rivals. On command, the participants stop, and here you need to determine the winner... However, the whole trick is that the men were initially misled about the rules of the competition, and the winner is the one with the hairiest leg! And you solemnly present the prize to the "hairiest" man in your company.
