Oral interesting games. Fun word games for kids and teens

Tru-la-la

The players start counting aloud from one to one hundred, calling the numbers in turn. The task of the players is to say the word “true-la-la” instead of numbers that are divisible by 7 or include the word “seven” in their name (you can think of any other funny phrase; and instead of 7, choose another number, for example, 4). The one who makes a mistake is out of the game. The remaining participants start counting from the beginning. You need to keep score quickly, then misses happen often, and the game turns out to be very fun. The winner is the one who has never made a mistake.

Earth, air, water, fire

An interesting word game for children on the speed of thinking. The participants of the game form a circle, in the middle of which the driver stands. He throws a ball or a balloon to the players in turn, naming one of the elements: earth, air, water or fire. If the driver said the word “Earth!”, Then the one who caught the ball needs to quickly (while the driver counts to five) name some domestic or wild animal; to the word "Water!" the player responds with the name of a fish or aquatic animal; to the word "Air!" - the name of the bird (flying insect). At the word "Fire!" everyone should wave their hands. Anyone who makes a mistake or cannot name the animal is out. It is impossible to repeat the names of animals, fish and birds.

Word volleyball

In this game, participants stand in a circle and throw a ball or a balloon to each other. At the same time, the player who throws calls any noun, and the one who catches the ball needs to name a verb that is suitable in meaning, for example: the sun is shining, the dog is barking, etc. If the player calls an inappropriate verb, he is eliminated from the game.

All questions - one answer

You need to prepare cards with names in advance various items household items. It could be kitchen utensils Appliances, household and other items, for example: a frying pan, a saucepan, a vacuum cleaner, an iron, a broom, a mop, etc.

The players sit in a circle. The facilitator approaches each participant and offers to pull out a piece of paper with the name of the subject from the hat (box). When everyone has sorted out the cards, the leader stands in the center of the circle, and the game begins. The host asks the players in turn a variety of questions, and the players must answer these questions only with the names of the items they got on the cards (in addition, only prepositions are allowed). Rules: you need to answer questions very quickly, while the one who is talking to the host is forbidden to laugh, while the rest of the participants can deliberately make him laugh.

Options for questions and answers:

What is your name? - Mop.
And what do you brush your teeth with in the morning - Vacuum cleaner.
What is the name of your hairstyle? - Washcloth.
And who are your friends? - Frying pans.
What do you have instead of eyes? - Spoons.

The main task of the presenter is to come up with such questions, the answers to which involuntarily cause laughter from both specific players and all other participants. The laughing player is out of the game. The most imperturbable participant who knows how to restrain his emotions wins.

Answers out of place

The essence of the game: you need to answer any questions of the host very quickly, without hesitation, with any proposal that is not related to question asked. For example, the facilitator asks: “Isn’t the weather wonderful today?” The player needs to answer something like this: "I think today is Saturday." If he makes a mistake or answers in monosyllables (for example, says "yes", "no", "true" or "false"), then he is out of the game. One participant in the game cannot be asked more than three questions in a row. The leader's task is to try to confuse the player. For example, he asks: "Isn't it wonderful weather today?" The player replies, "I think today is Saturday." Host: Is today Saturday? Player: "I like to go to the movies." Host (quickly): “Do you like to go to the movies? One, two…” Playing by inertia: "Yes" - that's it, he lost the dialogue and is out!

Sausage

Into this simple fun game, which does not require any additional props, can be played sitting at the table. A leader is chosen, who asks everyone in turn a variety of questions. The task of the players is to give the same answer: “sausage” or related words: “sausage”, “sausage”, etc. The main thing is to answer with the most serious face. Whoever laughs first is out of the game. The winner is the player who will cope with his emotions to the end and will not succumb to the host's provocations. Laughter during the game is guaranteed!

Backwards

Fun outdoor game for kids. The host calls the participants words denoting the names of objects, and the players need to quickly find this item and hand it to the host. The difficulty lies in the fact that the presenter calls all objects “back to front”, for example: chyam, akzhol, agink, alquq (ball, spoon, book, doll). Fun for kids guaranteed!

Are you going to the ball?

A fun word game for quick reaction for a small company. The essence of the game: the participants are not allowed to laugh (and even smile!), as well as to pronounce the words: “yes”, “no”, “black” and “white”. The one who violates these conditions gives the phantom to the host of the game - any item he has, after which he leaves the game. When there is no longer a single player left in the game, everyone who has given forfeits redeem them by performing fun tasks, invented by the leader.

The game begins with the host coming up to each player in turn with the words: “The lady sent you a golik and a broom, and a hundred rubles of money, ordered not to laugh, not to smile, not to say yes and no, black, white do not wear. Are you going to the ball?"

Examples of possible dialogs with player errors:

- Are you going to the ball?
- I'll go.
“Would you like to stay at home?”
— Not, I'll go. Ouch…

What color will your dress be? White?
— Yellow.
- Then the hat, of course, will be white?
- Not white, and pink. Ouch…

- Are you going in a carriage?
- Most likely in a carriage
What will you wear to the ball?
— Nice dress.
— Black?
— Blue.
- Will it be sewn especially for this ball?
- Certainly.
“And you will be the most irresistible lady at the ball?”
- Necessarily.
- And you will kiss everyone in a row?
— Not! Ouch…

During the game, the host tries to make the one who answers laugh; in addition, he asks questions so that the forbidden words are spoken as soon as possible, and the players pay for it with forfeits.

Entertaining playroom. Scenario

Leading.

A smart dwarf walked through the forest,

He carried a thick volume in his hands.

But the smart dwarf stumbled,

That volume slipped out of my hands.

“The house is in danger, friends!

We are all saved, trouble!” -

The letters started to run

The dwarf cannot hold them.

The gnome is very upset

Do not read without letters goth volume ...

Help the gnome urgently

Return all letters to the book.

Exercise 1: find the missing letters and return them to their place, arranging them according to their meaning. Having coped with the task, you will find out the name of the smart gnome's book.

Answer: The Golden Book of Fairy Tales.

Task 2: replace a letter in a word with another one in such a way that the original meaning of the word changes. For example:

Mouth - sweat.

Shock - juice.

Nora - leg.

The world is fat.

House - catfish.

Goat is a rose.

Raspberry - Marina, etc.

Task 3: choose a word that, when replacing one syllable with another, will acquire a completely different meaning. For example:

Poppy ... (cancer).

Crown ... (crow).

House - ... (catfish).

Rose - ... (goat).

Cork ... (mink).

Dew - ... (wasp).

Stanza - ... (bustard), etc.

Task 5: what semantic meaning will a word acquire if one of the letters suddenly disappears from it? Remember the plot of one animated film in which there was a terrible confusion and confusion with the meaning of words. And all due to the fact that one boy could not make friends with letters and words, for which they decided to teach him a little lesson.

Remember: "the door to the kindergarten was closed, and now it is buried." Or: "the boy was once Kolya, and now he is called Olya."

Come up with your own examples:

mole - mouth;

grocery store - astronomer;

spy - peony;

small - scarlet, etc.

Task 6: putting letters in right order, try to unravel the encrypted message. What did the great Russian poet Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin bequeath to his descendants?

Answer: "Reading is the best teaching."

Once a wise man remarked -

At good parents good children.

Be true to your old friendship.

Teaching, knowledge and work

They walk side by side through life.

The gardener is beautiful with his work,

The nightingale is beautiful in song in the garden.

It doesn't matter what you have

It's more important that you can.

The Russian people have no less wise proverbs and sayings, some of them are similar in meaning to the Eastern ones. Remember them. (The apple never falls far from the tree. old friend better than two new ones, etc.)

Task 8."Verbal duel". Two rivals begin their intellectual duel: they “shoot” with words starting with a certain letter. For example: one says a gun, the other says parquet, etc.

He is considered defeated, whose vocabulary runs out. The right to be the first to start a "duel" and which letter to "shoot" is decided by lot.

Task 9. Test of attentiveness and ingenuity. Read an excerpt from a short story that has a hidden meaning. Try to guess which one?

“...Today all the students had to stay at home. The radio said that because of the severe frost, classes at the school were canceled for three whole days.

Hooray! - I exclaimed and immediately called my friend Vaska. But his mother answered the phone:

Roma, Vasilek is ill. He has a bad cough...

All clear, I thought, it's all because of the ice cream. Oh, if you knew that classes were canceled! The fact is that today there should be a decisive control in mathematics. L Vaska is already arguing with a deuce and a triple, he doesn’t have a mathematical mindset, what can you do! But try to explain it to our mathematician. Lily Petrovna is a person severe. Not at odds with mathematics, which means that you are a finished person - a loafer and a lazybones. "Two" to the magazine and mom to school. So Vaska decided to play it safe, yesterday after school he ate three popsicles and two ice creams. What will you take from the patient? He has peace and positive emotions necessary.

Well, you need to morally support a friend. With a bag of his favorite toffees and a book about spies, I went up to Vaska. He lived in my house, two floors up. The door was opened for me by Vaska's younger sister, by the way, an extremely mischievous girl. She was wearing one shoe.

Hello, - I said and asked, nodding at her feet - Where is the second one, lost or what?

And she didn't lose anything! I didn’t have time to put on the second one, I opened the door for you! Mom left for work. Vaska is sick. Having blurted out all this in one breath and having managed to show me her tongue at the same time, Ritka immediately galloped off to her room.

Vaska met me with a forced smile, lying on the bed. With a silent nod of greeting, I placed toffees and a book on his bed.

Vaska, it's time to take your medicine! - with adult intonations in her voice, Ritka said importantly. She had already put on her shoes and was now holding a glass of rosehip decoction in her hands. - You must drink this drink, otherwise you will not recover, so my mother said. And grandmother Lyuba told my mother, she lives with us in Astrakhan - these words were already intended for me. - Mom called her grandmother and said that Vaska was ill, and grandmother told her mother ...

Listen, Rita, go away, huh? - Vaska suddenly croaked - / Let me at least cheer calmly .... ".

An excerpt from the story of E. Arsenina "Unlucky".

Question: How many colors can be found in sentences? Title the story. Come up with your own version of the end of the story.

Answer: The story mentions seven flowers: cornflower, lily, iris, peony, poppy, wild rose, aster.

Task 10. Let's play with words. Pick up words that easily rhyme with each other and sound almost the same, but ... It is worth removing just one letter from the word or replacing it with another - it turns out ... What can happen, you will now hear:

GOAT nibbles grass,

Next to the oak, on it the bark.

A wasp crawls along the bark,

DEW glitters in the meadow.

And in the hands of a peasant, the scythe rings merrily ...

Try to continue by rhyming, for example, such words as burrow-leg-horns, etc.

Task 11. Words are given separated by commas. Arrange them in semantic order so that you get a tongue twister: crows, because, two, early in the morning, bagels, fought.

Two crows early in the morning

They fought over a lamb.

Task 12. found during archaeological sites an old parchment, which, according to historians, is more than three hundred years old, has undergone careful and thorough study and analysis. "The mysterious scroll could belong to one of the wizards," scientists - archaeologists, historians and philologists unanimously declared.

Read what is written and answer the question: why did pundits come to this conclusion?

Answer: In an ancient document, such "magic" words are inscribed: "please", "thank you", "sorry", "sorry", "hello" - read from right to left.

Task 13: read the beginning of the poem by E. Arsenina "A Ridiculous Story."

Outside the window, on the glass

The midge stuck.

Fly away quickly

I'll crush it, baby! ...

Try to continue the poem, replacing the word "cling" to "frightened", adding "I'm knocking" ...

I knock on the glass

"Fly away - I will crush!"

The little one got scared

The midge has flown...

It would seem that the story with the midge is over - it flew away, the poem ended. However, let's try to think what consequences a meeting with a small harmless midge could have for the author of this poem.

The task is quite difficult, so here's a little hint for you: in cozy kitchen in front of the window, on the table is a delicious breakfast. The author, preparing to pick up a plump fragrant sausage with a fork, suddenly notices a small goat scurrying back and forth on the glass of the half-open window.

And since our author, as all authors in the world are supposed to be, is a very nervous (albeit very kind) person, he doesn’t like it terribly when something flickers before his eyes while eating. Agree, this greatly distracts from a delicious, juicy sausage ... just spoils your appetite! So, with a sigh, the author puts his sausage back on the plate and tries to convince the midge to leave his window through “peace negotiations”.

As you already understood, the midge turned out to be a rather stubborn insect. In order for it to fly away, the author had to persistently and continuously knock on window glass. Breathing a sigh of relief that the conflict with the stubbornness did without assault (our author for his long life and didn’t offend a fly, so I wouldn’t forgive myself for the death of a small defenseless booger) the author returns to his untouched and slightly chilled breakfast in order to continue the meal ... but ... it wasn’t there ... Only empty plates and fork. Tasty, juicy and so appetizing sausage, and with it cheese and sausage disappeared without a trace! Evaporated! Why do you think? What happened next? Try to imagine and develop the plot on your own. ..

Now listen to how he describes the further events of the ill-fated morning himself

While I was standing at the window

And watched the midge -

Breakfast suddenly disappeared without a trace

In my cat's stomach!!!

My breakfast!

Was eaten!

Insidious fat cat!

Sausage, cheese and sausage

Disappeared instantly and without a trace!

I grabbed the slipper in a hurry,

To punish the thief.

But the cat, purring happily,

Gave such a shooter ...

There is nothing to look for,

I'm ready to tell you honestly:

I'm not carried away by the midge,

Wouldn't have been robbed by a cat...

Agree, what is not a detective story: a midge in the role of a distracting accomplice in crime, in the role of a victim the unfortunate author, left without his breakfast, and an insidious adventurer-cat. The latter was obviously lucky: she not only had breakfast for herself and her master, but also avoided a good beating at the same time.

Guys, who do you think is really to blame for this whole story: the circumstances, the author, the midge or the cat? What educational measures, in your opinion, should be applied to a thieving cat?

Creative tasks.

1. Title the poem.

2. If you like to draw, you know how to use paints - illustrate this plot.

Entering school requires a first-grader to focus on learning activities. Of course, teachers in the first year or two still try to include educational process game moments, but still study is not a toy, but a serious occupation that requires efforts of will, composure and perseverance.

But still, the main activity of the child in the first years of life is the game. Through the game, kids get acquainted with the world around them:

learn letters and numbers;
train memory and attention;
develop logical and non-standard thinking;
learn colors and shapes, seasons and days of the week;
stimulate creative and emotional intelligence;
learn the principles of healthy communication with other people.

When a child reaches the age of 6-7 years, when active preparation for school begins, parents often push games into the background, urging their beloved child to get used to the upcoming realities as a student. Yes, you can partially replace educational games with activities that are more reminiscent of a traditional school lesson in structure, but you still need to play during this period and, let's say more, in any other - up to a very advanced age. Moreover, you can successfully combine learning with entertainment. To help all moms and dads, anxiously awaiting entry into the ranks of first-grader parents, there are word games for older preschool children.

Benefits of word games

Word games include all games in which the main element is the word. These are various kinds of associations, and chains, and leapfrog, and even all kinds of crossword puzzles: scanwords, chainwords, fieldwords, diwords, etc. Some of them involve organizing leisure activities for a large cheerful company, others allow you to have an interesting time alone with yourself. But all the word games come together common characteristic- they do not require any (well, almost none) additional attributes. Maximum - a pen and a piece of paper, a ball, cards with pictures, words or letters.

You can play word games with children anywhere:

Houses;
on a walk;
on the road;
queue.

It is well known that at any age word games actively stimulate the development of cognitive mental processes:

attention;
memory;
thinking;
imagination;
speech.

We believe we have convinced you that the game is not a hindrance to learning. So, it's time to move from words to deeds. Or rather, to the game. Word game.

Word games with a ball

"I know…"

An arbitrary number of participants can play the game. You can play alone, then the ball is not thrown from player to player, but bounces off the ground. An excellent lesson for training dexterity and coordination of movements, developing memory and attentiveness (after all, the words in the game cannot be repeated).

Sitting in a circle, the players clockwise throw the ball to each other, saying the counting rhyme:

ten (if it is still difficult to name 10 items of the same category, the number can be reduced to 5 or even 3)
flowers (categories can be very different - female and male names, months, days of the week, colors, geometric figures birds, vegetables, etc.)

chamomile - times;
buttercup - two;
lilac - three ...

If the player hesitated and could not quickly name the flower, he passes the ball further in a circle, and at the end of the con (when all the objects of this category are named by the joint efforts of all participants), he will have to complete some task (tell a poem, sing a song, answer question, jump on one leg, etc.)

"Edible - inedible"

At a time when all the yards were filled with groups of children of different ages, the residents of nearby houses through the open windows for days on end heard the excitement of the children playing this incredibly popular then game. If your childhood passed without her, we will tell you surprisingly simple rules.

From the players (there can be as many as you like, but not less than two), water (leader) is selected. He stands opposite the rest of the guys and, in turn, throws the ball to each of them, naming any word:

cucumber;
bench;
blazer;
bun…

If the object named water can be eaten, the player catches the ball with his hands, and then returns it to the leader. If the word is "inedible", the ball must be beaten off. The player who reacted incorrectly to the word changes places with the leader.

Instead of classification by "edibility", you can use any other sign. For example, to catch the ball, if the named word means transport (a flower, objects of wildlife ...), otherwise - to beat.

"Affectionate ball"

The game develops dexterity and speed of reaction. Useful at the stage of studying diminutive suffixes. Great for parent-child play. You can play with several children at once, throwing the ball to each of them in turn.

The rules are simple: throwing the ball to the baby, you name the main word. The child must catch the ball, and then throw it to you, calling this word in a diminutive form.

Examples:

chair - high chair;
eye - eye;
the sun is the sun;
doll - doll.

"Who cooks?"

A game to consolidate knowledge about the diversity of professions.

The adult calls the action and throws the ball to the child, and the kid, returning the ball, must name the profession corresponding to this action:

Examples:

cooks - cook (cook, confectioner);
draws - artist;
writes - writer (journalist, poet);
builds - builder;
heals - doctor.

You can switch roles: the leader calls the profession, and the players catch the ball and name the appropriate action.

"Earth, water, air"

The host calls the element (earth, water or air) and throws the ball into the hands of the player. The player must catch the ball and in a split second name the creature that lives in this element.

You can use category names (birds, fish…) and specific names (perch, pike, swallow). The main condition: words should not be repeated. If you can’t name the word or there was a repetition, the loser must complete the leader’s task.

Example:

water - crucian carp;
earth - boar;
air is a sparrow.

Common to word ball games

All the described games are suitable for organizing classes with a child of 6-7 years old on the street and at home. You can use a small soft ball or refuse the ball altogether, just pronouncing the words of the game in turn. In these educational games, the ball serves several purposes:

requires successful distribution of attention between several actions (catching the ball and thinking about the correct answer);
regulates the time for thinking about the answer (the ball should not stay in the player's hands for longer than 3 seconds - by agreement this time can be extended or reduced);
adds dynamism and excitement to the game.

Word games for the development of logical thinking

"Who is superfluous"

At younger preschool age, tasks for the development of thought processes of generalization were carried out using pictures. The child was asked to select several groups from a series of drawings, combining the depicted objects according to different features(by size, by color, by quantity, by purpose, etc.), or, on the contrary, remove the extra picture. For a child of 6-7 years old, this game can be played in verbal form. Thus, among other things, figurative thinking, imagination and phonemic hearing are involved.

Name a series of words in which all but one are combined common features. At the same time, the task can be complicated by demonstrating that the same objects have a number of features, and you can select group mates for each of the qualities.

Example:

Bed, wardrobe, table, chair, sheet.

In this group, the word "sheet" is superfluous, because, unlike the others, it does not refer to furniture.

Pillow, blanket, sheet, bed, closet.

In this group, as in the previous one, there are the words "bed", "sheet" and "wardrobe". The extra word this time is "closet", as it does not mean an item that can be used for sleeping and relaxing.

"Danetki"

Danetki is special kind riddles that perfectly develop logical thinking, teach you to think outside the box and creatively. The player is given a task to solve. In order to find this solution, the player (several guessers are allowed to participate, then they should ask the host questions in turn) asks the host leading questions, to which there can be only three answers:

irrelevant

The goal is to find the right decision behind minimal amount questions. You can add a competitive element by declaring the winner of the player who first guesses how to solve the puzzle. Examples are available on our website. Having trained on ready-made riddles, you can come up with similar puzzles on your own.

Riddles

Riddles are a version of a word game known since ancient times, which perfectly develops logic. But we propose not to use ready-made author's or folk riddles, but to compose them, as they say, on the go. Moreover, the players must alternately change the roles of the guesser and the guesser: first you guess, and the child guesses, then vice versa.

This game task develops the ability to highlight the features of an object, recognize objects by description, compose verbal description by which the subject can be identified.

Example:

This vegetable is green even when ripe. You don't need to boil or fry it. It can be salted, pickled and sour.

As you probably guessed, this is a cucumber. If the child cannot guess the riddle in any way, add new conditions. Say that you like to add this vegetable to the salad, that it is in the beds of your grandmother in the country ... In general, develop not only children's thinking, but also your own. Useful 🙂

Word games for the development of speech at 6-7 years old

"Connect"

The host calls the child several inconsistent words that must be combined into a grammatically correct phrase or sentence.

Examples:

tall, tree - tall tree;
girl, run - the girl is running (running, running);
forest, mushrooms, grow - mushrooms grow in the forest;

"Hug words"

There is a single word. He is bored and sad. It is necessary to embrace him with words so that a sentence is obtained.

After such an introduction, name any word with which you need to come up with sentences. If a child with such a task copes with ease that delights you, you can complicate the rules. Now, one word at a time must be added to the original “lonely” word so as to first get a simple non-common sentence (there is only a grammatical basis: predicate and subject), and then a common sentence with secondary members *.

* Please note: a child of 6-7 years old is not required to know the classification and components of sentences, but a general idea in such a playful form can already be given.

Example:

Cat;
The cat is running;
The ginger cat is running;
A red cat with white paws is running;
A red cat with white paws runs down the street;
A red cat with white paws runs along a snow-covered street.

"Tell a Picture"

This word game implies the presence of a pre-prepared drawing. The best way- landscapes or still lifes of famous artists. But instead of a picture, you can use environmental objects:

a person present nearby;
part of the street visible from the window;
playground during the walk.

As you know, pictures are painted. And we will tell it. Simply put, we will compose a short text for 5-6 sentences describing a given object (a picture, a person, a street, etc.).

This task is quite difficult for beginners, so help your preschooler with leading questions first. Gradually, he will learn to describe the pictures on his own, which will help him in the near future to write brilliant school essays in the lower grades.

We have given only a small part of the possible games with words. You will find more options in other materials of our blog.
Play word games with the whole family. This perfectly strengthens family ties and forever leaves bright memories of a happy childhood in the child’s memory.
Tailor the playing environment to your child's needs. It is important that the tasks are within the power of the preschooler, but at the same time not overly simple.
When choosing the topic of the game, be guided by the questions that you are currently studying in developmental classes, so the game will serve as a consolidation and repetition of the past.

Enjoy the happy moments spent with your children, because the crumbs grow unimaginably fast. May parenthood bring you joy and satisfaction.

Word games are magic wand, helping to pass the monotonous road and entertain the company of children and adults. We have put together a collection of fun and interesting word games for preschoolers, schoolchildren and adults.

This year we went to the camp in Slovenia and further to Greece by car, so we tried all these games on the road. I already talked about them in our social networks, and there the participants also threw in their favorite games, for which many thanks to them! Here I have collected all the games that we liked, and conditionally divided them by age. At the same time, older children, of course, enjoy playing those games that are listed here as games for kids.

Fun word games for kids 3-5 years old

barrel of laughter

Everyone thinks of a word (you can whisper in your neighbor's ear). The leader asks any question. For example: “What did you eat for breakfast today?”. And in response, you need to name the hidden word. It often turns out very funny.

Yes-No with emotions

The leader says “Yes”, the rest answer “No”. The task is to completely repeat the emotion, mood and volume of the presenter. And he speaks insinuatingly, and in a whisper, and screams, and creaks. Natasha, TV's daughter, spoke about this game at a meeting about T. V. Babushkina's Adventurous Pedagogy. It is good because it allows the child to feel the full scope and range of emotions, intonations, experiences that can be hidden in a short “Yes” or “No”.

My new car

Everyone in turn calls a number from 5 to 25, and then everyone counts the oncoming cars in unison. If you guessed, for example, 15, then the fifteenth car will be your car. It's a lot of fun when some particularly fashionable car or an old jalopy drops out. I got a BMW! Indeed, old...

Coquettes

You can offer the child, overtaking other cars: wave to them from the window, wave them with their feet, make a funny face, salute, smile, etc. If the passengers of that car reacted, then the child is counted plus one point. Scored 10 points, get a prize. I remember this as my favorite game from my childhood. The three of us always looked into the rear window of my father's Moskvich, semaphored, and smiled at all the oncoming and overtaken cars. No one has ever tried to catch up and snitch.

Whose drop is faster

The game is good for rainy weather. Everyone chooses a drop at the top of the glass. And then he watches her as she flows down. Whose drop is the first, he won!

machine rainbow

We drive in the car and carefully look around. If we play machine rainbow, we are looking for cars of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple. If there are few cars, then you can just play rainbow of objects outside the window. Or in a rainbow of houses. Or a rainbow of billboards. Etc.

Word games for preschoolers (for children 6-7 years old)

What did I think outside

You think of something that you meet along the way and start counting it out loud. The task of the rest is to guess. Particularly interesting in the area big cities where there is a lot. You can guess, for example, billboards, red cars, two-storey houses, road signs, trucks, cars with a top trunk, etc. Whoever guesses correctly guesses next.

What did I think in the car

Thinking about something inside the cabin. Answer all questions with “Yes” or “No”. Descriptive questions can be asked: “Is it black?” “Is it plastic?” “Is it in the front of the car?” etc. The guesser guesses.

I'll take it with me in my suitcase

Word games for schoolchildren and adults

Three word story

Each of the players thinks of one any word. Then they are said out loud at the same time. It turns out a loosely connected, at first glance, set of words. And the leader must come up with a fairy tale with them.

Contact

A game for those who know letters. The driver thinks of a word and says the first letter. Players must come up with words starting with this letter, but not the words themselves, but their definitions. The task is to describe the word in such a way that one of the participants guessed, but the presenter did not. When someone guesses, he yells "Contact"! And he begins to count loudly up to 10 together with the one who guessed. At the expense of 10, they loudly pronounce their words. If the words match, the host opens the second letter. The host can guess faster, then he just says the guessed word and the game continues. For example, the presenter thought "Heat" and says "letter T"! The player asks: "Is this a barbel?". The host has no idea, and the second player shouts "Contact"! They count 1,2,3 ... 9,10 - Cockroach! Said at the same time, so they won. The host says the second letter - "E". Then he makes up words that begin with “those”.

Jar

The letter and size of the can are assigned. And everyone takes turns calling words starting with this letter, denoting objects that can be put in such a jar. For example, the letter K and a liter jar: tights, a wallet, a doll, cereals, porridge, a fist, etc. Whoever didn’t say is out.

I bring to your attention some interesting word games that are suitable for games with older preschool children from 5-7 years old.

"New word". Name any word, for example, "bush". The child must come up with a word that begins with the last letter of your word. For example, "cake". The game continues until one of the participants repeats or cannot give their own answer.
"Sweet word". Invite the child to turn the words as in the example: house - house, table - table, hare - bunny, book - little book, fox - fox.

How do you usually behave at home?
- Do you swim well?
— How do you draw?
- How do you skate?
Did the boy do well when he took the toy from the baby?
"In a word". Ask the child how to call in one word:
- plates, cups, pans, pots? (Dishes)
— sofa, bed, table, chair, closet? (Furniture)
- milk, bread, flour, cheese, sausage? (Products)
- felt boots, boots, shoes, sandals, Czech shoes? (Shoes)
- Plane, train, car, tractor, ship? (Transport)

In this game, the child learns to generalize. You can complicate the game by naming one extra word in a group of words: apples, pear, plum, cucumber. The kid must guess the extra word and explain why it is superfluous.

"Who is bigger". In this game, you need to come up with as many adjectives as possible for any noun. For example, Summer is warm, sunny, rainy, gentle, hot.

You can also set the task to come up with verbs for the noun: the river flows, runs, murmurs, boils.

"Guess". The child must guess the object by the name of its parts:

cabin, body, steering wheel, wheels, headlights - car;

head, horns, body, tail, udder - cow.

"Think of a word." Will the child be able to come up with words starting with the syllables “li” (fox, leaf fall, lemon, linden, leaves, midget, lily, downpour), “ka” (porridge, helmet, drops, crucian carp, stone, picture, viburnum, gate, pan), “ve” (spring, broom, wind, rope, bucket, fun, fan)? Can he come up with words ending in the syllable "sa" (scythe, wasp, sausage, fox, princess, miracles)? Will he remember the words in which the combination “ro” occurs (king, crown, lesson, throne, rhombus, shelter, building, rose, feather, subway, pie)?

"Say the opposite." Give your child a word, such as "cold." The task of the child is to find the antonym word, which is opposite in meaning: “hot; "summer Winter"; low-high"; bad-good."

"Find the mistake." Read the sentence to the child, ask what fairy tale it is from and what is wrong with this sentence.
- There was a goat. And she had seven little kittens.
Mom baked pies and asked her daughter Blue Riding Hood to take the pies to her grandfather.

- The wolf lowered his tail into the hole, sits and says: "Cold, freeze the wolf's tail."

"Poker". This game is suitable for older preschool children. It is more interesting to play it with a group of children. The child chooses a name for himself from the kitchen utensils: a poker, a saucepan, a ladle, a plate, a cup, a fork, etc. The adult asks questions:

"What's your name?" - Cookie.

"What's your mother's name?" - Ladle

"What did you eat today?" - Ladle

"Who did you walk with?" - with Povareshka

"Who are your friends?" - Ladles.

In addition to the fact that this game will amuse children, it will help them learn how to decline objects in gender, number and case.

« One is many. An adult calls a word denoting one object, a child calls plural the words.

Child-people, bear-cubs, man-people.

"Word-association". Name the word, say, "honey", and ask the child what he imagines when he hears this word? For example, the child will name the word "bee", then the next player must name his association, but to a new word - for example, "flower". This children's word game contributes to the development of associative thinking and expansion vocabulary.
