You can celebrate a girl's birthday at 2 years old in different ways. By this age, the preferences of babies are already clear - some love noisy companies, others are shy and feel comfortable only in the company of close people. In order for the celebration to go off with a bang, you need to take into account the tastes of the birthday girl and the invited kids.

Usually, when celebrating a daughter's birthday at 2 years old, they mean a bright children's holiday, and not a company of adults with a plentiful feast. In order not to offend either one or the other, it is better to divide the holiday into two parts - for kids and for adult guests and spend them at different times.

Where to celebrate 2 years old child?

There are three great options for a 2 year old daughter's birthday party. All kinds of children's cafes and entertainment centers have been very popular lately, where they take over the organization of fun for kids.

Parents only coordinate the details and pay the money. This is not only a tribute to fashion, but also very convenient, because you do not need to stand all day in the kitchen and prepare the hall for receiving guests, and then wash mountains of dishes.

The most budgetary is the traditional birthday at home, at 2 years old this is quite relevant, because the birthday girl is still small and can be capricious in an unfamiliar environment. When choosing this option, you do not need to pay for the rental of the premises and you do not have to worry about the quality of treats prepared for the kids, because everything is done by mother's caring hands.

In the summer, parents can celebrate their daughter's birthday at 2 years old in a forest glade or in the courtyard of the house. Kids will be happy to frolic in the fresh air, and after games and competitions, you can have a small picnic with simple dishes. In order to take all the noisy company and props to nature, you will need at least a minibus.

Decoration of the room for a birthday 2 years

Little girls, just like boys, love balloons. That's why there can't be many of them. The decorated room of the birthday girl and the hall for receiving guests will delight the little ones. For home entertainment, it can be rented if the size of the room allows. On the street, tree branches are decorated with paper lanterns and garlands.

Ideas for 2nd birthday

Be sure to capture in a photo or video how the birthday of the little princess went, because the children grow up so fast, and after some five to ten years, you will look at these frames together with nostalgia to remember the time when your daughter was still very small.

A child's birthday is the most fun holiday of the year. And it can be made unforgettable with a little effort. Every child, regardless of age, is waiting for something fabulous and unusual on this day, so give him these emotions in the morning, surprising him with a brightly decorated room.

With the right choice of decorations, this day will become a pleasant memory not only for your son or daughter, but also for the guests who are invited to the celebration. How to decorate a birthday room with your own hands? We suggest you look at some interesting ideas with a photo of the design of a children's room for a child's birthday.

How to decorate a birthday room with your own hands, photo

The first - and perhaps one of the most important rules for planning a children's bedroom holiday decor - is to focus on the age of your child. The smallest children (1, 2, 3 years old) will not be able to appreciate the exquisite decorations, so for such a room you can come up with a “simpler” design.

Use a minimum of catchy and annoying colors that can affect the emotional state of the baby. It is better to give preference to delicate, pastel shades.

Important! Dangerous decorative items should not be present in the design of a nursery for a baby. Even balloons - a standard decoration at the holiday - use with caution: if they burst, they can injure the child.

The decoration of the festive interior for older children should be brighter and more cheerful. In this case, a themed decor would be an excellent solution.

If you know what your son or daughter is interested in, choosing the right topic is not difficult. The further design process will depend on your imagination, since in the chosen style you can choose a maximum of different decorations.

For teenagers from 14 years old, a more restrained and concise holiday decor is preferable. If you plan to stick to a specific theme, choose from sports, movies, music, nature, fashion, or technology.

"Children's" decorations in such a room should be absent, even simple balloons are enough to support the feeling of a holiday.

Remember! The thematic design of the nursery for the birthday of a boy and a girl should be different, especially when it comes to older children (over 6 years old).

It is better to plan the subtleties of the design of this interior in advance, as well as the time of decoration. The room should be transformed beyond recognition, and it will be a big surprise for your child if, upon waking up, he already sees the prepared decorations. An older child can be introduced to the process of decorating a room, then you can create a festive design that perfectly matches his tastes and preferences.

The interior of a nursery for a birthday is best divided into several zones. The first - the dining table area - will be used for a festive feast and some games.

It is better if you allocate a place for the children to frolic and play active games: it is better to free such an area from foreign objects as much as possible. For decor, a children's hut or pillows are suitable.

If you are celebrating your daughter's birthday at home, build a podium, let her and her girlfriends present themselves at a fashion show.

Knowing the preferences of your children, you can decorate the room in the best possible way, and the birthday will really be remembered for a lifetime. Let's find out what standard and non-standard decorations can be used to turn this day into a fairy tale.

Decorating the wall and ceiling

The easiest and most budgetary way to decorate walls and ceilings in a child's room is to use colorful balloons.

Hang helium balloons from the ceiling, and use ordinary balloons to create spectacular compositions on the walls. Use bright colors: red, yellow, purple, green, blue are ideal.

Many companies provide services for the creation of arches, floral and other compositions of their inflatable balls - contact them if you cannot decide on the best decor for the free walls of your home.

Advice: from balls you can make animals and little men - and decorate different corners of the children's room. This design is especially relevant if you stick to a certain theme (for example, air and light fish are suitable for a marine style).

You can put sweet prizes into balloons and arrange games and competitions for children. By the way, in addition to the wall and ceiling, chairs and a festive table are suitable for using these decorative elements. Tie helium balloons to the legs and the children's dining area will immediately stand out against the general background.

Another way to decorate walls and ceilings is garlands. They can be made by hand using paper, fabric, beads, sweets and other bright details. If you are planning a celebration in the evening, decorate the room with electric garlands with different lanterns.

From garlands, you can lay out abstract compositions or create festive graffiti on the walls. You can attach funny pompoms made of thread or corrugated paper in bright colors to the ceiling.

Paper flowers and butterflies, bright wall stickers, family photos are also suitable for decorating a nursery. Ready-made hanging inscriptions and numbers are on sale for celebrating a children's birthday.

If you wish, you can leave a place on the wall for children's art. This method allows you to introduce children to creativity: here they can leave birthday greetings or just draw.

If you hang a drawing paper on the wall, you can also use it as paraphernalia for children's competitions.

Festive table decoration

At a children's holiday, you can not do without a table with different goodies. But it should be not only sweet, but also stylishly designed, so use decor elements in this area of ​​​​the children's room. To begin with, decide on the coloring: there should not be many bright and conflicting shades on the table.

When using catchy accent decorations, it is better to lay a tablecloth in a neutral color (white, beige, blue, etc.). If the main festive element on the table is a tablecloth with children's pictures or inscriptions, choose simple dishes. By the way, you can also find interesting tablecloths with children's puzzles, but they will have to be released as much as possible.

Advice: if you are worried about the safety of the dishes after the active guests of your son or daughter, use disposable plates and cups. There are many holiday sets with fun decorations on sale.

The main principle of designing a children's table is harmony. Harmony should be traced not only in shades, but also in textures, sizes of the paraphernalia used. In the photo you can see successful examples of serving.

To decorate the table, use small toys, flowers or paper stars, bows or funny cards with the names of guests.

Edible decorations will be especially in demand: sweets, cookies, muffins, fruits with chocolate icing, salads with children's stories, cakes and pastries to order with festive compositions. And do not forget about healthy food: fruits will be not only tasty, but also a bright addition to the children's holiday table.

If the birthday of your son or daughter is close, start planning this holiday now, relying on our recommendations, and of course, do not forget about sweets. When preparing for the holiday, do not forget that the baby's room should be decorated in accordance with the energy of this day: fun, bright and positive.

And we also offer a selection of photos with ideas for decorating a children's birthday:

So the second year of the new life has passed. Your baby is already walking, actively communicating with peers, saying phrases and even reading small poems. Already knows how to dance and perform simple tasks.

The child tries to tie his shoelaces on his own and fasten naughty buttons, rolls koloboks from plasticine and draws something with broad strokes on white paper.

The range of toys is still being updated, but the baby's preferences can already be clearly seen. For boys, these are cars and a passion for disassembling the mechanical parts of toys. The girls have dolls and cute houses. However, the opposite also happens.

The wardrobe continues to grow with the child. The baby's social circle is rapidly expanding, and, most likely, he already has friends and girlfriends. He still cannot imagine life without his parents.

The features of a birthday for two-year-olds are, in general, the same as for one-year-old children. The child is unlikely to clearly fix this event in his memory, but he will remember some moments of the past holiday for a long time. In general, every year the baby will remember more and more. It will happen on its own over time.

Parents need to actively participate in the celebration program, otherwise the child will simply be shy or will not be able to understand what they want from him.

Now you can involve the birthday boy in decorating the room. Consider last year's wishes, add fresh ideas - and now the room will turn into a real magical place. Print out photos from last birthday and paste them into rectangular cardboard frames. Then fix them with adhesive tape on the wall one after another in a row.

From the bottom, add two wheel circles to each of the rectangles. In front of the first cardboard frame on wheels, place a steam locomotive cut out according to the template. You've got a "holiday express" from the past.

Don't forget the congratulations notebook! Put it in a conspicuous place and do not miss a single guest without making wishes to it. Also remember about the gift table and soft play area.

Entrust the crumbs with simple tasks: hang colored garlands on chairs or build a playground out of pillows for him and invited guests.

At this age, you should consider your child's opinion: which ball, what color should hang on the chandelier, and which - in front of the front door.

Children of this age are especially capricious when choosing clothes, try to please the capricious.

A two-year-old baby continues to sleep twice a day. So you leave the principle of dividing the holiday into parts. Of course, the morning time is entirely given to the family.

Remind your child that today he is two years old. Two years of happiness, two years of joy, two years of your beloved baby!

Start breakfast and don't forget about the holiday dessert. Present the gift solemnly after the baby eats everything. Well, then put the child to rest.

The second part of the birthday after the baby wakes up can be spent in the cinema. Choose the right cartoon in advance. Or go to the children's theater for a performance for the little ones. As a last resort, just watch something exciting and exciting at home.

Make viewing a celebration. Make sure that the kid himself has a desire to watch it with you.

Upon returning from the cinema, theater or after watching at home, play out a memorable scene with the baby, if the child is not very tired, of course. Just stand in the characteristic pose of one of the characters and approximately reproduce the scene. You can not follow the plot of the picture or performance and play it in a new way, with a different ending.

Then, with a clear conscience, put the child to bed.

If you still decide to celebrate the child’s birthday traditionally, then invite guests to the evening part of the celebration. Their number is about the same as last year - 5-6 people with children. After all, the child is still too small, and the accumulation of a large number of invitees is not so easy for him to endure.

Like last year, welcome guests with your child. Let him feel like a master too. Make sure that the birthday person accepts congratulations with dignity and be sure to thank for the gifts and kind words. After all the guests have gathered, sit down together at the table.

Traditionally - toasts in honor of the birthday man and careful praise of his merits. When everyone is refreshed, you can move on to the games. For two-year-olds, encouragement with a kind word remains, but at the same time there should be gifts for each of the kids in the last competition.

Let's start with balloons. Tell the kids that now you will compete to see who can throw the balloon higher. Demonstrate exactly how this is done. Be careful, constantly looking up can make children dizzy. Make sure that nothing gets in the way under your feet, otherwise falls cannot be avoided.

During the fun, wait until one of the balloons bursts, and loudly announce that there are too many of these very balloons! They need to be snapped up quickly. Let the kids trample them, jump on top of them, squeeze them in their hands and generally have fun in every possible way. No one is usually afraid of the roar of bursting balloons, but be attentive to the children's mood.

After this fun, play hide and seek. Parents will lead, and children will hide. Of course, the guys will not hide so well that the watchful parental eye does not immediately find them. Therefore, call the kids deliberately loudly, as if you do not notice them.

You can, standing over a child covered with a blanket, loudly ask where your child is, build deliberately erroneous assumptions and check them. However, in the end, be sure to find your baby and wait for the next tour with him.

Alternatively, let the guests break into pairs and hide with the children, and exactly the same pair of parent and baby will look for them.

When the children have had enough of hide and seek, offer them a game "Guess who!".
Prepare images of different animals, preferably by the number of children. Placed on the floor, show the children one by one the pictures. After naming the animal correctly, ask the child to demonstrate how it moves and what sounds it makes.

Parents can help their kids. After correctly performed body movements and onomatopoeia, give the baby a small keychain in the form of an animal that he just guessed.

Let all children, including the birthday boy, take part in the game with prizes. Be careful: the toy should occupy both palms and in no case fit in the mouth entirely.

To the set of toys that you give to the use of children, you can add a “house” built from furniture and covered. Make sure that the design is stable and durable.

At the end of the celebration, organize a permanent circle dance. Singing a song, perform certain actions, helping the children navigate what is happening by their own example. Place the hero of the occasion in the center of the circle and ask to clap your hands.

As for Mishins (Machines, Petins, Kolins, Angelikins) name days
We baked a loaf.
Here is such a height!
We raise the children's palms taken into your hands up and show how high the loaf turned out.

Here is such a low!
We lower our hands down and show where this huge loaf starts from below.

That's the width!
We disperse and stretch in a circle, as wide as possible so that the loaf can fit.

Here's a dinner!
It is clear that such a huge loaf simply cannot be narrow. However, at these words, you approach the birthday man, who is standing in the center, and gently and affectionately stroke his head and shoulders.

Caravan, caravan,
Whoever you want - choose!

If the child is still very small or simply embarrassed, then support him by taking the obligatory answer in the round dance:

Of course I love everyone
Well, Masha (Misha, Petya, Kolya, Angelica) - most of all.

After the selection procedure is completed, an assistant from among the adult guests turns on the garland, and the father of the birthday boy brings in a loaf or cake. Definitely with candles. As with the first birthday, help your baby blow out the light if necessary. Then turn on the light, sit down at the table and take on a treat.

After the holiday, take the guests to the door, thank everyone and, tired but happy, go to bed.

It is better to celebrate the second birthday of the baby at home.

If you still decide to arrange a "not home" holiday, try to create conditions that are as comfortable as possible for the child. Decorate the hall at home, grab your baby's favorite blanket and don't forget about the main purpose of the event.

Everyone knows that colorful colorful balloons bring indescribable delight to children of any age. Buy balls of fairly dense rubber, inflate them, trying not to make them pear-shaped - this will save them from frequent bursting. A loud sound frightens babies and causes tears.

Balloons can be tied with colored ribbons to chairs, door handles so that the kids have to reach for them, or simply scattered on the floor. Bright, beautiful, and most importantly - the children for half an hour, or even more, will be busy with their favorite game. They will be able to run around the room, toss the balls, scoop them up and push them again with their little hands and feet.

Have a similar effect on babies bubble. Children love to chase them, catch them with their hands, love when they burst.

If you use soap bubbles, remember two things: they sting your eyes and the floor after soap is very slippery.
Therefore, prepare an old tablecloth or piece of fabric in advance. Spread it on the floor where you will blow soap bubbles.
This will keep the kids from falling and also save your favorite carpet or clean floor.

After the children have played enough, simply remove the cloth, wipe off the remaining soap solution - and you can continue the celebration.

Take care of the safety of children, warn them to take care of their eyes.

Decorate and transform the children's room, in addition to balls, old wallpaper will help. Fasten a long strip to one of the walls with safety pins. Stick on it children's photos illustrating memorable moments from the life of the hero of the occasion: how the baby grew up, learned to draw, glue, played and had fun.

Both are within the power of any mother, even if she does not have the talent of an artist. And the masters of fine art will surely create a real magical land on the wallpaper, the main character of which will be a baby.

Be sure to leave free space, approximately 1x1 meter. This is for younger guests.

At the beginning of the holiday, invite your baby's arriving friends to draw something memorable while you wait for the rest of the guests. Arm them with paints and felt-tip pens, make sure that none of the children get carried away and start drawing on your new wallpaper.

On the poster, you can leave your prints, circle your palms, draw flowers, animals, and whatever your heart desires. And mothers can sign the creations of their children. It will be interesting to unfold this poster in 5 years and see who left their "mark on history"!

After the kids have painted for their own pleasure, it's time to eat a little, and then start playing and having fun.

Remember that at this age it is difficult for children to play on their own, especially if the child is “at home”, does not go to kindergarten. It is important that one of the adults set the pace of the game, set and explain simple rules. Be there all the time, help your child overcome obstacles and complete tasks, try to teach him how to interact not only with parents, but also with other children.

Toddlers of two years old will enjoy repetition games, round dances, rhyme and song games, as well as color recognition contests, guessing animals, various “obstacle paths” and, of course, hide and seek.

Games-poems.
This is a special kind of games, they maintain a certain rhythm and therefore are very popular with children. An adult slowly and clearly pronounces aloud one after another lines of simple poems and shows movements that illustrate their content.

Remember, for example, the well-known poem "Bear clubfoot":

A clubfoot bear walks through the forest,
He collects cones and puts them in his pocket.
Suddenly a bump fell right on the bear's forehead.
The bear got angry and kicked the top:
“I won’t collect bumps anymore,
I'm going to get in my car and go to bed!"

Usually, when reading this poem, mother and babies walk, swaying from side to side, like bears, bend down, as if collecting cones.
Then they demonstrate how the bump hits the forehead, for which they touch their own forehead with their fists.
They stomp their feet and shake their fingers, and then, picking up an imaginary steering wheel, they drive a car and go to bed (the palms are placed like a boat under the cheek).

It is better to repeat the game several times so that children can remember the movements.

Other poems are illustrated in a similar way.

For example, an adult reads a poem "Funny Monkeys":

Early in the morning in the meadow
This is how the monkeys frolic:
Right leg top, top!
With these words, we stomp with our right foot.

Left foot top, top!
With these words, we stomp with our left foot.

Hands up, up, up!
We raise straight arms, stretch up.

Who will rise above all?

Up to the sky
We pull up.

Down to the grass.

Up to the sky
We pull up.

Down to the grass.
We squat down and touch the floor with our hands.

And now circled
We get up, we circle around our axis.

And they fell down.
Everyone sits on the floor and then falls.

round dances built on the same principle.
A short song is performed, the children walk in a circle and perform the movements that they sing about.

For example, round dance game "Three cheerful brothers":

Three cheerful brothers walked around the yard,
With these words, everyone walks in a circle, holding hands.

Three cheerful brothers started a game,
They made heads nick-nick-nick,
Everyone nods their head or tilts it to the right, then to the left.

Dexterous fingers chik-chik-chik,
We do the exercise "scissors" with our hands. The arms are straight, first the right hand goes on top and crosses the left, then vice versa.

Clapped hands - clap-clap-clap,
We clap our hands.

They stamped their feet - top-top-top.
We stamp our feet loudly.

After round dances, jumps and cheerful running around, it's time to relax a bit, change your occupation, play quiet games.

Guess the animal.
Children sit on the floor with their parents. Toys or pictures depicting animals known to them are laid out in front of them. One of the adults imperceptibly makes a sound that imitates the voice of a kitten, dog or other "representative of the animal world" from those that are located on the floor. Another adult asks whose voice it is.
The child must answer and point to this animal.

You can change the rules. Mom picks up one toy and asks to say what this or that animal says. Babies bark, growl or squeak.

"Mink".
Tell the children that all animals have houses: burrows, hollows, caves, lairs. With a sly look, invite the guys to go to one of these mink houses. It's easy to build. Ask your dad or an adult to do this while you play guessing and animal transformation.

Connect several chairs or stools, throw a blanket or sheets over them - and the mink is ready. It is important that it is not too dark, as children may be frightened.

But then the children will leave you alone for a long time, exploring the house and crawling around it. Although it is possible that they will like crawling together, for example, by a train or in pairs - mom and baby.

Get ready for the fact that you have to become a "pioneer" and show by personal example how to climb into a mink.

Another exciting and interesting fun - hide and seek with a toy.

Mom or dad hide the child's favorite toy in the room and ask to find it.

- Where is the bunny? the parents ask. Maybe under the sofa?

All together they run up to the sofa, bend down, look, but he is not there. The following assumption is put forward. For example, under the table. There again is not.

- Or maybe the bunny went to the bathroom, decided to wash?

Finally, the animal is found. Everyone rejoices, mothers note what good fellows the children are. The bunny can immediately hide again, that's how smart he is, the prankster. It is better that it shows up on the third or fourth time, otherwise the children will lose interest in the game.

A mother or grandmother, that is, one of the adults, can also hide. And the children with dad will go in search of her.

For example, the search for mom can be played like this.

"Oh dear, where did she go?" - we shake our heads, shrug our shoulders, showing our chagrin.

- Guys, let's find mom, run after me as soon as possible. Hurry up! To the kitchen! Let's see in the bathroom! Or maybe in the bedroom? Aha! Here she is! Found!

After that, everyone hugs their mother, adults praise the kids, without whom they would never have coped.

It is very important that adults energetically and cheerfully offer the kids to complete this or that process, motivate them.

"A couple is not a couple."
Choose to play and lay out several plain socks of different colors on the floor. Take one and put the rest aside. Ask the children to find the second sock, brother and friend of the first.
Instead of socks, mittens, scarves, or two sets of felt-tip pens can be used.

"Arrows and catchers".
Another favorite activity for children is transferring objects from one container to another. Let's make it harder for them. Children will toss soft paper balls into a plastic bucket held by dad, trying to be nimble and catch them.

Throw balls in the bucket
It is not easy for us to get into it.

Let's check which of the children is the most accurate, and which of the dads is the most dexterous.

"Tails".
Now is the time to connect moms to the gameplay. They are so similar to foxes in their graceful gait, only they do not have a tail that can be wagged. But nothing, this is fixable.
We take long ropes or laces, to the end of which we tie a piece of fabric, and ideally fur. These ponytails are attached to the belt for mothers, and the kids try to grab them and tear them off.

Our children's birthday script for 2 years is a constructor. Choose or add those parts that you like. Remember that small children get tired quickly, so for such crumbs, an event lasting two hours is suitable (this is approximately).

By the way, remember that if you wish, you can divide the child’s birthday, as it were, into 2 parts: in the afternoon (when the baby sleeps) invite his friends with their mothers, yet the birthday is a children’s holiday, but by the evening call the adults - relatives and friends.

1. We send out invitations
Unusual invitations to the holiday, which you can send by mail or personally on a walk, can also become part of the event. For example, in the case of a costumed event (for example, on the theme of the “ball of insects”), you can make small stylized postcards yourself, which will depict, say, a ladybug.

Just do not forget to call the guests back later and clarify whether they received an invitation (if you sent it by mail).

2. The guests have come
So that the little guests of your birthday boy, and even he himself was interested, you can already put birthday caps on the kids in the corridor. And with a child, you can learn a little rhyme, which he will tell guests with your help.

And it will also be very fun if, at the entrance to the apartment of each of the guests, you turn on a cheerful melody. Both the birthday man and the guests who have entered will surely like this beginning of the birthday.

While the rest of the guests are gathering, the responsible person (for example, the father of the birthday boy) can put together a constructor with the kids in one of the rooms, play something neutral, so that the celebration itself can begin when everyone has gathered.

3. Let's start celebrating
As a start for the holiday, it can be: a quest game - "Let's return the birthday cake." The bottom line is that at the very beginning, the kids are invited to blow out the candles on the birthday cake. But when they bring the cake in the box, everyone finds that it is empty, but there is a note stating that the cake has disappeared and first you need to complete some fun tasks so that the birthday, of which the cake is a symbol, takes place.

Another option to start the holiday: one of the adults brings in a “magic” (pre-prepared by parents) box or scroll from some fairy-tale hero whom the birthday boy loves. A message is read to the birthday man: “Dear baby! Another great year has gone by.... (here parents will insert any wish, summarize the important achievements of the child, praise him, etc.)... but for the birthday to go well, you and your friends need to try, for this you first need to dance well. And everyone is invited to do what is written in the message. That is, the tone of the event is set by this message with instructions for action.

If your event is costumed, then this can also be beaten. For example, solemnly announce that today everyone has gathered for the ball of insects - bees, ladybugs, etc. You can first invite the children to have fun spinning in a round dance, and then continue playing on the child’s birthday.

Get creative. Surely the described examples will prompt you precisely on your idea of ​​celebrating the birthday of a two-year-old child.

4. Let's play
We definitely recommend showing a puppet theater (for example, the father and mother of the birthday boy pick up a toy each and play a fairy tale familiar to the children behind an impromptu screen). Also, be sure to try to dance more with the children, drive Loaf around the birthday boy.

"Loaf":

Like Mishina (Machine, Petya) name day
We baked a loaf.
Here is such a height!
We raise the children's palms taken into your hands up and show how high the loaf turned out.
Here is such a low!
We lower our hands down and show where this huge loaf starts from below.
That's the width!
We disperse and stretch in a circle, as wide as possible so that the loaf can fit.
Here's a dinner!
It is clear that such a huge loaf simply cannot be narrow.
Caravan, caravan,
Whom do you want to choose!
If the child is still very small or simply embarrassed, then support him by taking the obligatory answer in the round dance:
Of course I love everyone
Well, Masha (or any name) is the most.

"Flower-seven-flower". We make a flower with 7 petals out of paper in advance (or as many as you need according to the number of children). On each petal - the simplest task. Dance, jump on one leg, etc. Moreover, it is performed not only by the one who pulled it out, but all together. This makes it easier and more fun for kids.

"Funny animals". You can show the children an animal on the computer screen and ask all the children to show what sound such an animal makes (a cow lows, a goat mecks, etc.). It won't be difficult for the kids, but it will be fun for everyone.

"Assemble quickly." Another game for the little ones. We will prepare the same type of toys in advance. For example, parts of a pyramid, soft toys, etc. That is, to have several parts of the same type. Only so that at the same time you can easily explain to the children what their difference is. The goal is to collect your items faster - for example, someone collects all the wooden cubes on the carpet, and another kid collects all the balls, etc.

"Fly balls"- active game for little kids. Children have fun throwing balloons up, the task is to keep your balloon from touching the floor as long as possible. Children will run around the room and catch balls. In fact, the balls will immediately fall to the floor, since the kids are not so dexterous, but it will still be fun and everyone will be busy for a few minutes.

"Merry Relay". The main point is that children will run from one end of the room to the other, but not just like that, but move according to the stated condition. For example, on one leg, along a lined ribbon, holding three balls in their hands, etc. We boldly reward kids for completed tasks with sweets, small toys, etc.

"Nimble Throw". We give one of the adults to hold a basin or bucket. And the kids take turns happily throwing toys at him. Whoever throws the most skillfully gets a gift.

"Race". For this game, dads are needed, who will get on all fours, put the kids on their backs and have fun running around the room with them.

By the way, you can also solemnly circle the palms of the birthday boy or make casts of hands, as well as hold a small photo session with the kids.

And you can also plan to blow soap bubbles with the kids, draw together, watch a cartoon.

When all the tasks according to the beginning of the event (all tasks from the magic box, etc.) are completed, you can proceed to the festive children's table with the solemn removal of the cake and blowing out the candles. Be prepared that all the kids will ask you to blow out the candles, so that the blowing out event will be delayed.

5. For adults
If you need to entertain adults, take note of a few ideas:

• Viewing a photo presentation, a video about a little birthday boy (if you have prepared them in advance)
• Prize quiz about the birthday man (when he was born, how much he weighed, in which hospital, what he likes to eat now, what achievements for the year, etc.)
• We recall childhood - for example, dad shows, and adult guests guess the cartoon character.
• We solemnly write wishes for the birthday man, which he will read in 10 years or for adulthood, put in a box.

6. The end of the holiday
It is advisable to think over the finale of the festive event. Mom can solemnly read out a farewell rhyme for guests on behalf of the birthday man. And you can also distribute gifts to all the children - magnets, whistles, soap bubbles, sweets. And for adults, memorable photos of the birthday man, a disk with a video film about him.

And on the street you can launch balloons or sky lanterns into the sky. It will be beautiful.

We hope you enjoy our children's birthday script for 2 years.

Dear Parents! We encourage you to show imagination and supplement the script with your own ideas.

Child's birthday - 2 years. Scenarios, games and ideas

Two years is the time when children play side by side, but not together. They still do not really need to communicate with their peers. Favorite "I myself!" and my!" can significantly spoil the atmosphere of the holiday. Therefore, it is advisable to invite a minimum of guests who are well known to the baby, no more than 5-6 people. It is reasonable to divide the birthday itself into two parts (even better 2 days) - separately for children and for adults.

The duration of the activity with children is 2 or 3 hours , no more. During this time, you will have enough time to play a dozen small prizes, sing in chorus familiar songs from cartoons, musical fairy tales (or popular "adult" songs - whatever you like). You can also dance - who knows how. Outdoor games are required, as well as blowing out a candle on a birthday cake. It is better to lower the feast - no one will sit decorously.

Kids 2-3 years old, as a rule, already run well, walk, know how to handle a ball, cubes, play cars and dolls, can repeat simple phrases after adults and dance with them.

The most famous round dance is, of course, "Loaf" during which children can get to know each other. Everyone join hands and walk in a circle with the words:

How about ... name day
We baked a loaf:
Here is such a height! (children raise their hands as high as possible)
Here is such a bottom! (children lower their hands as low as possible)
That's the width! (children run as wide as possible)
Here's a dinner! (children converge to the center)

Caravan, caravan,
Whoever you want, choose! (and then the birthday boy sings)
Of course I love everyone
Well and (says name) -
Most! (The child whose name was called goes into the circle and everything starts over.)

If the children liked it, then you can play loaf in honor of each of the little guests. There are other round dances that kids really like.

For example, "Three Merry Brothers":

Three cheerful brothers walked around the yard (go around in circles),
Three funny brothers started a game (stop),
Made heads nick-nick-nick (nodding head),
Dexterous fingers - chik-chik-chik (depict scissors with fingers),
Clapped hands - clap-clap-clap (clap),
They stomp with their feet - top-top-top (stomp).

“The king walked through the forest” is a very popular cheerful round dance.

Children hold hands, forming a circle. In the center of the circle is the “king” (boy, dad, grandfather), in his hands he holds the “crown”. Children begin to dance with the words:

The king walked through the forest, through the forest, through the forest,
Found myself a princess, princess, princess. (The king chooses a princess and puts a crown on her head)
Let's jump with you, jump, jump, (everyone jumps)
Legs kick, kick, kick, (jumping legs)
Let's clap, clap, clap, (clap hands)
We stomp our feet, we stomp, we stomp, (stomp feet)
Let's shake our heads, (shaking their heads)
Let's start first! (girl returns to her seat)

The children dance again, and the "king" chooses a new "princess".

The Big Carousel is best played when there are many children.

Children hold hands and walk in a circle, depicting a carousel, accelerating, and then slowing down.

Most likely, children will not want to give each other hands at first, and they need to be gradually taught this.

Barely, barely, barely
The carousels started spinning.
And then, then, then
Everyone run, run, run.
Hush, hush, don't rush
Stop the carousel.
One-two, one-two
Here the game is over.

In fact, the active part of the holiday does not end there, of course.

Invite the children to play simple games.

Funny transformations.

To begin with, the host invites you to imagine yourself as different animals - bunnies, frogs, cats ...

Then you can ask to depict objects - a tree, a table, a teapot ...

More complex images - a blowing wind, an unwinding ball, a blossoming flower...

The game is very fun, the children are actively involved, they themselves come up with transformations.

"Accurate shooter".

Who will be able to hit the ball into the bucket (basket, basin, box) more times? A ping-pong ball in a three-liter jar?

"Snake".

Children stand in a circle and run after each other. The leader says what to do (goose step, jump, crawl, somersault or crawl under the table).

"Swamp".

Each child is given two album sheets. You need to go through the “swamp”, moving along the landscape sheets: stand on one of them, and put the second one in front of you, then step forward, shift the freed sheet forward, go to it, and so on.

"Bowling alley".

Knock down skittles (plastic water bottles). Or, if available, use children's toy skittles.

"Obstacle Course"

Reach the finish line, overcoming various obstacles - climb into the “mink” under a chair, walk along a narrow path, i.e. along a long scarf, jump over a river, which can represent a blue patch, etc.

"Nose-floor-ceiling".

The host alternately says the words “nose”, “floor” or “ceiling”, and at the same time points his finger incorrectly: for example, with the word “ceiling”, he points to his nose. that is, the driver deliberately confuses the children, and the children must show the named object correctly.

"Ear-nose".

On command "ear!" you need to grab your ear, and at the command “nose!” - by the nose. The leader performs the movements incorrectly, provoking mistakes.

"Arm walker" and "foot jumper".

Cut along a long piece of wallpaper (or you can use a large roll of paper). On one half there will be a “hand walk” - stick multi-colored palms, and, in the middle, a flower, and on the other half of the “leg jumper” - stick multi-colored footprints, and, in the middle, a berry. Children take turns walking first one distance and then another. At the same time, you need to move along the “hand walk” on your hands (mom or dad holds the legs), and in the middle you need to smell the flower (i.e., “pull out”). You need to jump along the “leg jumper”, and crouch in the middle to “pick and eat a berry”.

"Fantas".

Prepare in advance notes with tasks that your children will be able to do, for example: read a poem, jump around a chair like a bunny, etc. Such task notes can be put in balloons or wrapped in bright paper and made into a garland. The child must choose a piece of paper with the task himself, and, having completed it, receive a small prize - a calendar, a sticker, a carnival mask, etc. Prepare more of these little things so that there is enough for everyone.

"Beef Tricks".

Announce to the children that while they were playing, Govyadin came and popped the balloons and broke the flower pots in the next room. To have fun further, everything needs to be corrected.

For this game, draw balloons and vases with simple flowers in advance and cut each drawing into two or three parts. While the children are playing in the other room, lay out the papers, mixing them up.

"Jolly Fans"

Hand out tongues to the children and offer to support the mothers as they compete in tossing serpentine through the garlands of balloons and flags stretched out in the room.

Adults can also offer other games.

To begin with, let them pick up affectionate words for the birthday man, and then you can play "Talent Auction" - complete any task, receiving as a prize a photo (calendar with a photo, a magnet) of the hero of the occasion. Tasks can be:

• name children's writers;
• sing a fun children's song;
• guess a children's fairy tale by a changeling (for example, "Square" - "Gingerbread Man", "Sun King" - "Snow Queen", "Doghouse" - "Cat's House", etc.; you can remake any fairy tale, song, proverb) ;
• make the birthday boy laugh.

Spend quiz with questions , one way or another relating to your baby: weight at birth and per year, height, favorite food, when the tooth appeared, the name of the pediatrician, time of birth, the number of balls in the room, etc.

At the end of the holiday, when the children are already tired, it's time to show them a small puppet show . If you practice a little in advance, you can arrange shadow play .

To do this, you need to choose a light wall (or hang a white sheet) and highlight it with a table lamp so that shadows from your hands appear on it. The most primitive figures that everyone probably knows from childhood are a dog, a hare, an eagle and a man in a cap. Come up with some dialogues or songs for them, and the children will be completely delighted.

Try to stage some famous fairy tale, for example, "Gingerbread Man", "Teremok" or "Turnip". Moreover, it is not at all necessary to buy an expensive set of ready-made theatrical toys - just “make up” ordinary dolls for fairy tale characters or make toys from old gloves.

You can also do simple paper finger puppets . For example, we draw a bunny, color it beautifully and cut it out. Glue a ring out of a narrow strip of paper so that you can put it on your finger, and glue the finished little animal to it.

In order for children to better perceive the fairy tale, it is much more important to create a fabulous atmosphere and a fabulous interior. Glue a teremok out of a cardboard box, lay out several plain patches on the floor in waves - here is the scene for you. The stage can also be a screen from an ordinary sheet in the doorway. And now we light a candle, which immediately gives the room a mysterious atmosphere, and the performance begins.

You can accompany the beginning of the tale with a ritual: sing a song

“Candle, candle, you burn, a fairy tale - come visit!
The eyes are closed. And now the eyes are opening, and the fairy tale begins!

After the performance is over, the children can blow out the candle themselves, and then play with the characters .

"Ladder"

Character dolls: cockerel, cat, dog, boy, girl.

Pictures-decorations: the sun, a house with a window, a kennel and a cloud cut out of gray paper.

The performance takes place on the steps of a staircase, which can be replaced with cardboard boxes of various sizes. In total, five steps should be involved. A house is installed at the top of the stairs, a kennel at the bottom.

Leading:

On a green hill stood a house with a window and a ladder, and near the house there was a kennel for a dog. Guys, can you count? (Children answer.) Good! Let's count how many steps the ladder has: one, two, three, four, five. Yes, five steps!

The cockerel came (the host puts the cockerel on the first step of the ladder) , stood on the first step and sang. Do you know how a cockerel sings? (Children shout: "Ku-ka-re-ku"). Good!

A cat jumped on the second step and mewed (the host puts the cat on the second step) . How does a cat meow? (Children meow.) So! Good!

The dog sat on the third step (the host puts the dog on the third step) . The dog sits, looks at the cat, growls and barks. How does she growl and bark? (Children imitate the barking and growling of a dog.)

Sasha sat on the fourth step (the host puts the toy on the fourth step) and laughed merrily. How does Sasha laugh? (Children laugh.)

And Masha sat on the fifth step (a toy is placed) , sat down and sang: “We sat down on the ladder and sang a song.” And everyone sang along to her song. (The facilitator sings the phrase with the children several times.)

But then the wind blew and howled. How is the wind blowing? (Children imitate the sound of the wind.) The wind drove a cloud (a cloud is attached to the top of the ladder, above the house) and it started to rain. And how does it rain? That's right: cap, cap, cap.

The cockerel hid from the rain under the stairs. The cat jumped on the window. The dog hid in a kennel. Mashenka ran home. (The presenter moves the pictures along the way.) Only Sasha remained on the stairs. He liked to sit in the rain. But soon he got wet and ran home.

A cockerel came out from under the ladder and stood on the first step. The cat jumped down from the window and sat on the second step. The dog came out of the kennel and sat down on the third step. Mashenka sat down on the fourth step. Sasha came last. He dried his clothes. Sasha also sat on the ladder - on the top, fifth step.

And again they sang together and cheerfully: “We are sitting on the ladder, and we are singing a song.”

The children, together with the host, sing the phrase several times, then the music turns on and the host invites the guys to dance to enjoy the sun. Children dance as best they can; parents help them.

"Gingerbread Man" (performance game)

If the children are not very tired, try not just to show a puppet show, but to conduct an interactive game on the theme of the fairy tale "Gingerbread Man". To do this, divide all those present, including adults, into two teams, and invite them to go on a fabulous journey.

Start telling a fairy tale and, having reached the place where Kolobok meets a hare, spread your arms and say: “Where is the hare? There is no hare ... "And here is the first task:" Look for the hare! As a result, a toy hare can be found, for example, behind chairs or on a windowsill.

"...And a bear meets him..." Guests are invited to dress up one of the members of each team as a bear, using fur coats, fur hats, masks, cosmetics, etc.

At the end of the tale, Kolobok dies in the mouth of a cunning fox, but in your interpretation, Kolobok can be saved. To do this, the guests help Kolobok "roll away" from the fox. As "Koloboks" - small balls that need to be rolled across the room, crawling on all fours and pushing the balls with their heads.

Kolobok is saved, which means there are no losers. Everyone gets sweet prizes and a great mood for the rest of the evening.

The culmination of the holiday can be a piñata (pinata).

This is a relatively new element of birthday celebration in our country, which is rapidly gaining popularity. A piñata (or piñata; the tradition originated in Mexico) is something like a large toy made of paper and hollow inside. The piñata is stuffed with candy and is usually hung from the ceiling, in a doorway, or from a tree.

Blindfolded children alternately try to hit it with a stick and thus knock out candy.

For younger children, piñatas are made with laces. They are not beaten, you just need to pull the laces, and sweets will fall - to the delight of the kids.

Abroad, piñatas in the form of all kinds of chests and barrels, donkeys and octopuses, comic book characters, watermelon slices, balls, rockets, etc. are very common, and you can buy them in stores. In our country, it is still problematic to purchase something similar, so you will have to make the piñata yourself. It's not difficult at all.

For example, piñata in the form of a star is done like this .

1. Lay more newspapers on the table so as not to stain it with paste. Prepare some newspapers by cutting them into strips about 3-5 cm wide and 20 cm long. Mix 1.5 cups of water and 1 cup of flour in a saucepan. At the same time, water must be added to the flour gradually, rubbing it thoroughly so that there are no lumps. As a result, you should get a liquid paste.
2. Inflate a round balloon to about 30 cm in diameter, and tie off the hole. Set the ball on the table, for example, on a liter enameled mug.
3. Dip one strip of newspaper into the paste, then run it between the index and middle fingers of your other hand, skimming off excess glue. Place the strip on the surface of the balloon and smooth it down. Your task is to seal the entire surface of the ball with paper (like papier-mâché), leaving a small area free (7-8 cm in diameter) near the tied hole. The ball should now be dry.
   Important detail: if the piñata is intended for two-year-olds, along with the first layer of paper, you need to glue ribbons or laces, fixing about 10-15 cm on the ball, and leaving long (about 2 m) "tails" free - children will pull on them on command, tearing the piñata .
4. Repeat the procedure, pasting the ball with stripes (they should lie perpendicular to the first layer). Leave the ball to dry for 8-10 hours, turning it over from time to time so that the bottom part also dries up.
5. When the second coat is dry, apply another one if the piñata is for two-year-olds, and four more if older children will break it. Still do not seal the free area near the tied hole.
6. Pierce the balloon, remove it and make sure the inside is dry.
7. Cut colored tissue paper into squares with a side of about 7-8 cm, and paste over the workpiece with them. If the paper is thin and the letters of the newspapers are translucent, paste over with a second layer. Set the piñata aside to dry.
8. Now from the twine we will make a hanger for attaching the piñata. At the base (opposite the large hole), carefully check the small hole with a Phillips screwdriver or penknife. We make the same small hole in the center of the canning lid. We tie a 30-centimeter twine into a ring with a large strong knot. We push the twine into the hole in the lid and, putting our hand into the piñata, push the loop formed into the hole in the base of the piñata. Pull on the twine, pulling out the entire loose loop.

   

   

9. Fill the piñata 2/3 full with candy and nuts (or whatever). Fill the remaining space with wads of colored paper.
10. Cut out a large plastic bottle cap that is larger than the hole in the piñata and stick it inside. The paper wads should press the lid against the piñata, securing it from the inside. Cover the hole with colored paper.

    

11. The main part of the piñata is ready, and you can start decorating it. Roll a standard sheet of paper into a cone, securing it with tape. In total, five such cones are needed. Carefully trim the base of the cones with scissors so they can stand on a flat surface.
12. At the base of each cone, make even cuts 1.5 cm deep in increments of 1.5-2 cm. Bend the resulting petals outward.

    

13. Lubricate the petals of one of the cones with PVA glue and glue it on the top of the piñata, next to the loop. Glue the remaining four cones so that together they all resemble a five-pointed star.
14. But that's not all. Star-shaped piñatas look much more festive when adorned with a long fringe of colored tissue paper, foil, or gift-wrapping film. "Rays" are made like this. Cut five equal pieces of material at least 15 cm long and cut them lengthwise into 6 mm strips, but not all the way through. Glue with PVA glue or “rays” tape to the piñata cones.

    

15. Take five meter pieces of colored gift wrapping ribbon, 5 cm wide. On one side of each ribbon, make a fringe, making 1 cm cuts in 1.5-3 mm increments. Wrap ribbon around the piñata cones, starting at the base, and secure the ends with glue or tape. Fluff the "rays" with your fingers.

    

    The piñata is ready.

Traditionally, the piñata is hung in a suitable place before the start of the holiday. so that children can see it, discuss it and share their impressions, anticipating the upcoming entertainment. But for now, the piñata is hanging high. Finally, all the guests gather in a circle around the piñata, one of the adults unties the cord and lowers it to the level of the child's head or slightly lower.

Next, the child is blindfolded, handed a stick, baseball bat or cane, and given two or three attempts to break the piñata. However, not everything is as simple as it seems: the adult holding the piñata raises it every now and then to prevent this from happening, or, on the contrary, lowers it almost to the floor. But at the same time, the piñata must always be within reach, that is, it cannot be raised to the ceiling.

Children alternately replace each other, excitement grows, and finally the target is hit! A rain of colorful sweets and nuts falls on the floor, and children rush to catch their prey with enthusiastic cries.

As for the piñata for two-year-olds, the kids simply tear it apart, pulling the ribbons at the same time.

It remains to add that despite the fact that it takes several days and a certain amount of patience to make a piñata, the result is worth it: in the end, all the kids get an incredible portion of cheerful mood and pockets full of sweets. It is not for nothing that the piñata is an invariable attribute of most birthdays in many countries of the world.
