And in conclusion, we invite you to watch a test for real men called "Earth in the porthole" as well as other fun birthday contests for adults on video:
During the festive preparations for the birthday of the child, the parents of the birthday boy prepare an interesting competition program for children and often forget about the invited adults. The older generation is invited to sit at the table and entertain themselves with a conversation or tasting culinary delights. However, it would be much better to make a children's birthday a joyful and memorable event for already adult mothers, fathers, grandparents. How to entertain such a diverse audience? It is necessary to carefully select contests and tasks for children and adults, as well as organize joint entertainment.
A good holiday for children and adults begins with the following points:
- Invitation of guests.
- Festive decoration of the room.
- Entertainment program for adults.
- Games and fun for children.
- Joint competitions and competitions.
We draw invitation cards
The celebration begins with an invitation. You can simply call and verbally invite guests, or you can show creative ingenuity and use the "grandmother's" way - send beautifully designed invitation cards by mail. For adults, it will be a surprise to find in the mailbox along with a receipt for rent beautiful envelope with an invitation to a children's party. Yes, and children will be interested in tearing open the package and looking at its contents. Eat various ways decorations for children's birthday cards:
- Draw an individual postcard for each invited guest (child and his parents).
- Draw in one of the graphic editors.
- Buy ready-made invitations and sign them beautifully or compose a small quatrain.
Most The best way, of course - to make an individual postcard together with the child for each invitee.
We decorate the room
If you want the atmosphere of the holiday to be felt from the doorway, take care of decorating the room. It will be interesting for everyone invited - both children and parents - to consider the decor. Here are some options for decorating a room that will delight the eye and add solemnity to the moment.
Festive decoration of the room.
Wall newspaper
Start a tradition of publishing such a newspaper every year on the birthday of a child. You can make it from a roll of wallpaper. Glue the funniest and interesting photos child for the past year, and below make the original signature. This decoration will interest both children and adults. At the bottom, you can leave a little space for the wishes and signatures of the guests. After many years, taking out such a newspaper from the mezzanine, you will receive a lot of positive emotions and warm memories.
home exhibition
An exhibition of crafts, drawings, figurines made of plasticine and natural material, or something else (possibly self-assembled aircraft models, if the child’s hobbies are connected with this) is placed on a shelf or in a showcase for everyone to see. If the child is older, then you can offer him to pre-make a souvenir for each guest and distribute it to invited friends at the end of the holiday. Crafts of the birthday guests should also take pride of place on the shelf.
Balls and serpentine
Every child likes balloons and bright serpentine. You can simply hang them around the room or scatter them on the floor. You can also purchase a ready-made design from balloons of different colors or make one to order especially for a children's birthday. It is important to buy high-quality balloons so that they do not start to burst in the middle of the holiday.
Inside each balloon, you can put a piece of paper rolled up with a wish for guests (adults and children), and at the end of the evening invite everyone to choose and burst the balloon and read their wish. Such an original farewell is highly valued by both children and adults.
Adult Program
When celebrating a child's birthday, you should also take care of the invited parents. So that adults do not get bored during children's competitions, a separate program needs to be prepared for them. You can invite them to watch a video about the birthday. To make this at home, you will need a computer, photos and videos from the family archive in digital format. As musical accompaniment, music from cartoons or any other to your taste is suitable. You can mount the video yourself if you are familiar with video editing, or you can entrust this matter to professionals. As practice shows, such films captivate all adults: grandparents, godparents, parents of invited children, aunts and uncles.
On a fun holiday, no one should be bored!
While the adults are engrossed in watching the movie, the main program for the children can be held. When the film is over, invite your parents and relatives to the table and treat yourself to a meal of your own making. After 20-30 minutes, you can start holding contests and quizzes.
Tasks for children and adults can be alternated - while some participate, others enjoy a festive treat. Children and adults can be seated together, but it’s better to set a separate sweet table for the kids. Your attention should be enough for everyone. To make it easier - choose an assistant for your entertainment program. You will be generously rewarded for your efforts with children's smiles and the gratitude of adults.
Board games are one way to keep your parents company.
Tasks for adults
"Praise"
According to the order of places at the table, all those invited praise the hero of the occasion and call him best qualities. After that, a hat is taken out, in which leaflets with inscriptions of the personal qualities of a person were folded in advance, and the guests one by one draw out a "fantasy" for themselves.

"Name"
In turn, it is proposed to all participants in the feast to name diminutive and affectionate names for the birthday man (Sasha, Shura, Sasha, Sasha, Shurochka, Sasha and others, for example). The one who named more wins. The prize can be a small notebook, the first page of which was carefully painted on the eve of the hero of the occasion.
"tape of tasks"
A rope is fixed on opposite walls, and the child's socks are attached to it with clothespins. In each sock, a task for an adult:

When the birthday comes to an end and the guests are already pretty relaxed, you can offer them to solve puzzles for speed. Several simple puzzles are taken for 6-8 parts and laid out on stools according to the number of participants. Whoever picks it up the fastest gets the Order of the Fastest.
As a result, it is worth adding that entertainment for adults on a children's birthday should be interesting, but not too intrusive. Some people are embarrassed to enter contests or are afraid of appearing insecure. Be attentive to all participants in the celebration, and if a person is clearly tired, let him calmly enjoy the treat and contemplation of the fun.
Program for children
There are many scenarios for a children's birthday party. Here are some options: "Birthday Cake Gone", "Treasure Hunt", "Wish Fulfillment Fairy Gone" and others. Let's consider the missing birthday cake.
You can invite an animator or entertain the kids yourself.
We lead the children with leading questions to blow out the candles on the birthday cake. We solemnly bring in a beautiful box, in which it is supposed to have a cake, but there (oh, horror!) It is not. The box contains only a few crumbs and a mysterious note. Please read the older child's note. There is something like this: “I took your cake. Complete my tasks to get it back. Kira. Kira is a hand puppet. You can take any animal, girl or boy.
A moment later, the culprit of the loss appears on the hand of one of the parents. Kira gets to know the kids and proposes various contests for them to get their birthday cake back.
After completing all the competitions, the toy surrenders and returns the cake (it is in another room with lit candles).
