The world of Scandinavian mythology - tales of the gods - Freyr

Why are people ready to see a murderer as a hero?

A very common form of entertainment in student construction teams, school, work or summer teams are collective creative activities - impromptu concerts or games, competitions, in which participation requires the performance of funny skits. In the camp they are still needed for various holidays. You can’t do without them during everyone’s favorite KVN.

Scenes in the camp - short thumbnails

Of course, given the fact that the main activity in camps and construction teams is not playing on stage, there is no point in preparing long performances. Short, but ironic and succinct skits in the camp are usually more successful than even well-staged but long serious performances. Anecdotes can serve as excellent material for plots. For example, skits in a camp about people who are passionate about computers are always received with a bang. It's no secret that many guys today are Internet addicts to one degree or another.

for campabout “computer nerds”

The boy looks sadly at the yogurt. His tablemate turns to him: “Vovochka, why don’t you eat your yogurt?” - “You see, Svetlana, it hasn’t fully loaded yet...” - “How is that?” - “You see the inscription: “15%”. So I’m waiting for it to be 100% and I can use it!” - “So this is fat, Vovochka!” - “What is fat content?”
Vovochka walks in circles around the toilet, jumping up and down with impatience. Vasya approaches. “Vovochka, why don’t you go inside?” - “Yes, there is an inscription on the doors: “404!” That means he’s unavailable!”

Summer camp skits

But the most interesting are the miniatures, which ironically describe the life of the children vacationing here.

For example, you can show boys who don’t want to get out of the water while swimming in the sea or in the river. When the physical teacher whistles, they do not run to the shore, but take a deep breath and dive. The first time this act supposedly goes unnoticed - the physical education teacher starts a new group, and the boys again happily splash around in the “second period”. But then the smart physical teacher comes up with the idea to count the swimmers. “Excesses” are detected. "What to do? - the physical education teacher is suffering. - Where to put the extra guys? Ay, okay! And with suffering on his face, he “drowns” the extra children in the water. Of course, this skit is not performed in water, and the artists will have to “blow bubbles” on stage, including their talent, using pantomime.
The irony of the guys going out at night under the motto: “I need to go to the toilet!” can also be fun for teenagers. Here there is an option for the responsible counselors to send a child “suffering from diarrhea” to the hospital or to try to cure him with a strengthening agent, after which the teenager will actually begin to have problems, albeit in the opposite direction.

Dramatized song

Usually the guys get carried away by reworking famous songs in their own “camp” way. It is quite easy to stage such a song; the humor in it is quite understandable for teenagers. You can take, for example, the song: “Our locomotive, fly forward!”

And our squad flies forward,

Stop at the dining room!

Counselor, run out of the way,

After all, Vovka is ahead of everyone!

Vovka will sweep everyone off the road,

Sweeps away lunch in a minute,

He is always successful

Along this route!

But here's to the labor landing

Everyone in the squad goes out,

Our Volodya, like a saboteur,

He sits in ambush in the bushes.

The image of Vovochka is a collective one, so the verses can be “customized” to specific examples taken from the life of the group.

Each shift hosts a lot of events on various topics.

Main topics/events of the shifts

What are the evening events like?

Evening activities at the camp alternate with films on the big screen and everyone’s favorite discos.

Evening performances are organized on stage from each unit, in which all interested children participate. In a five-minute performance from each unit, counselors and children convey an idea to the viewer through dance, song, and acting.
For all performances, outfits are taken from a rich costume room, where you can find EVERYTHING:
- folk sundresses,
- ball dresses,
- animal costumes,
- costumes of fairy-tale characters
- much more.
If necessary, performances are accompanied by a pre-recorded soundtrack.
Concerts are illuminated by theater spotlights and filmed on video and photos, and subsequently posted in official groups In contact with And Instagram.

Daytime activities

During the day, in addition to constantly working clubs, sports games are held - volleyball, football, mini football, table tennis, archery, arm wrestling, relay races and other competitions.

Quests or “errands” are organized for children - themed games with stages located throughout the camp:

Miss camp

"Miss Camp" is one of the most favorite events of children and counselors in Orlyonok. This is a show that everyone will remember for the rest of their lives. Each girl-competitor has a chance to receive the title and crown of “Miss Camp” for the whole year. Preparation for the competition is an important component of the success of the event.

Each contestant is helped by counselors, circle leaders and a large number of friends.

Dresses are sewn, an avant-garde costume is invented, a song and dance support are chosen, a speech is written, and a worthy gentleman is chosen. The girls rehearse with the choreographer, consult with the costume designer and vocal coach. And when all the preparations in the children's camp are completed, the queens of the evening, to the loud applause of the fans, gracefully step onto a specially equipped podium with spotlights, a beautifully decorated stage, smiling at the professional jury invited to the camp... At this moment, everyone sees a charming young lady in a teenage girl, which is very important for young ladies.

Russian Culture Day

Have you ever been woken up to the accordion and children's laughter by cheerful guys and girls dressed in Russian folk costumes, dancing and playing all kinds of musical instruments such as rattles, spoons, and whistles? No? Then you don’t know what it’s like to wake up in a great mood at the Orlyonok children’s camp! And if you add to all this: a fun fair with various competitions, pancakes with condensed milk and jam, lots of goodies, jumping in an inflatable castle (trampoline), horse riding, Russian folk games.

Plus a wonderful costumed Russian fairy tale, in which children and camp counselors take part. And at the end there is a festive disco! It’s hard to believe, but this all happens on one day, on the Russian day, which is held by the children’s camp Orlyonok!

Night

The time of romance of the night, the beauty of the falling stars, the freshness of the wind and the mystery of the pink dawn. The Eaglet camp falls asleep, and the detachment, dressed warmly and taking everything they need, sets off into the night. A fire, potatoes baked on coals, bread fried over a fire, songs with a guitar, horse riding, scary stories and, finally, watching the dawn...

Tourist relay race

In the middle of an ordinary sunny day in the children's camp Orlyonok, an alarm suddenly sounds. What is this? Fire? Disaster? War? No! This is a relay race! Everyone comes running to the line, the units are being rolled out, the number of children is being counted, and the relay race starts! This means that a team from each camp squad is put up for a serious battle of the most resilient, fastest and most dexterous.

The spectators are happy to support their friends, and the participants try not to lose face while overcoming the obstacle course: run along a log, climb over a rope ladder, crawl on your bellies without hitting a low net, fly over a pit on a bungee, cross a river crossing, climb over a wall, gallop over the bumps. But that’s not all, it is important for real heroes to complete important tasks: put up a tent for a while, light a fire, carry a “wounded” person, assemble a machine gun.

On the day when a tourist relay race is held at the Orlyonok children's camp, dinner is prepared in the army field kitchen. After the competition, children dine with appetite on food specially prepared over wood. The atmosphere of a hike is created. And at the end of this unusual day, the Orlyonok children's camp hosts a disco where the winners are awarded!

You can see last year's relay in.

Adventure Night

Mysterious events always attract people. The night of adventure in the children's camp Orlyonok is a trail of challenges in the dark with scary stories and characters for older children and fairy-tale heroes for younger children. On the way you may meet large wild animals, souls of pioneers, monsters, skeletons, zombies, crosses, ghosts, a headless horseman...

Having walked the trail, everyone can get rid of their fears by “throwing” them into the treasured fire at the end of the path, become bolder and more self-confident, and get a prediction for the near future from the organ grinder. The Adventure Night at the children's camp ends with a magical fireworks display to commemorate goodness.

Merry Express

A fun relay race for the entire children's camp serves as a good start to each session. The rules are simple, the children's group moves to the music, holding hands from station to station, completes tasks, and answers questions. Already here the guys become more united, friendly and proactive. After passing each station, the squad receives points based on the results of calculation of which the winning squad is revealed.

Fair

By taking part in competitions and creative tasks, children earn “rubles” from the Orlyonok children’s camp. Making money is fun, but how to spend it? Here you need a smart head and competent financial calculations, because you can order a song, ride a horse, buy sweets, souvenirs, toys.

Sympathy Day

Everyone at the Orlyonok children's camp is looking forward to this day, both boys and girls, both small and big. On this day, there are many options to confess your love, express your sympathy, and send congratulations. You can receive and send a Valentine card through the “angels” postal service with recognition and congratulations. You can call the local telephone number on the children's camp radio and order a song, say hello and congratulations.

It’s very nice to hear your voice on the radio broadcast throughout the entire camp. In addition, you can send SMS from your mobile phone, which are displayed in real time on the screen of the televisions located in each building. During this entire time, both children and adults can come to the video room and record their congratulations. The evening before the film, the entire Orlyonok children's camp gathers for a film screening, before which everyone eagerly awaits video greetings on the club's big screen.

Festival of the Nations of the World

Do you think it is impossible to visit 14 countries in one day? Here in Orlyonka everything is possible! The children will learn about each country represented on stage, its geographical location, symbols, customs, and get acquainted with the traditional costumes of this country, its dances and songs. It may also happen that very important people from these countries will appear on stage, for example, presidents, great artists, athletes, say, football player Ronaldinho - very cheerfully parodied by the guys.

On this day, we do not forget about Russian traditions; the counselors always represent Russia, using ancient Russian customs in their performances.

Camp birthday

Unfortunately, birthdays only come once a year. This is exactly what the guys say about their birthday and about Eaglet’s birthday. This holiday is so large and colorful that at the end of the day you feel sad that the day is over. From the very morning, a festive mood is created when dressed up counselors walk through the buildings with songs and jokes and wake up all the children, congratulating them on the holiday!

Important guests and delegations from other camps arrive, and the Orlyata guys meet them and show them their mugs and give them a tour of the camp. Of course, all those present will be treated to a festive concert, amazing in its scope! After all, in a limited time on stage, we need to show everything that happens in our dear and beloved camp, show its history, its customs and achievements.

Guys from all units take part in this holiday very carefully and responsibly. On this day, the camp treats everyone with various delicacies - popcorn, cotton candy and festive breakfasts, lunches and dinners. And in the evening, of course, there will be magical fireworks and loud shouts of “Happy Birthday, Eaglet!!!”

Golden microphone

Talented Russia

This event is for all the talents of our camp. If you read poetry so that everyone falls silent, sing songs so that you want to sing along, dance so that it takes your breath away, play a musical instrument so that others want to go to music school, and maybe you know how to do all this at the same time and much more - “Talented Russia” is for you!

A huge number of guys go through several qualifying rounds and in the end, getting to the finals, the best of the best take the stage! But all the guys in the squad help make their performance bright! Therefore, if you decide to go to Orlyonok, be sure to determine your repertoire and immediately begin rehearsals!

Here we are

The time has come for the first acquaintance between the squads. After all, the camp does not yet know what names the units have chosen and what mottos they will now live by. It is at this event that a cheerful, creative, friendly mood is set for the entire shift. For some of the guys, this is the very first appearance on the stage of the camp, and for some even the very first performance in their lives, so there is always a feeling of festive excitement.

This event is held at the beginning of each shift and is the first joint performance of the entire squad, which undoubtedly unites the guys into a strong creative union!

Ceremonial lineup

The ceremonial line-up is held at the beginning and end of the shift. At the opening of the shift, the camp administration introduces the teachers and camp leaders to the children and informs them of the plan of events. The flag is solemnly raised during the Russian anthem.

The closing of the shift is carried out on the day of departure. All children and staff gather at the line to sum up the results and reward the most active, creative and athletic children. The Russian flag is lowered, but after a few days the guys on the next shift will raise it again.

Counselors Concert

The shift is coming to an end... And everyone sums up the unforgettable days of relaxation in the children's camp Orlyonok. They thank their friends, the camp, their counselors. And the counselors sadly say goodbye to the children who have become family to them. All their skills and talents come in handy at the counselors’ concert in order to express their emotions and feelings for the past shift at the children’s camp. The counselors read poetry, show skits, dance, and play musical instruments. There is a place for lyrics, humor, and a splash of energy. And finally, a farewell song... And here, wiping away our tears, we all understand that the shift was not in vain...

Stolen afternoon tea

At the children's camp, older children can show their directorial and creative abilities by preparing the "Stolen Afternoon Tea" event for the little ones. The kids come to the camp cafeteria for afternoon tea, and there’s a bunch of pirates stealing their rightful sweets right in front of them.

Kind fairy-tale heroes appear to help the children, be it Puss in Boots, Malvina, Thumbelina, the Fairy, who lead them in the footsteps of the pirates, stopping for clues from Grandma Hedgehog, the Devil, Koshchei, Robin Hood, Humanoids, Space Aliens and other heroes. The scenarios are always different, the characters and tasks are always different. Emotions are overwhelming, as a result, the entire children's camp is always satisfied: the younger children have found their afternoon snack, and the older ones are glad that they were not torn apart by hungry kids.

Rope course

Very important for a good holiday in a children's camp is a close-knit, friendly team that builds its relationships on the principles of respect, mutual assistance and support. The Rope Course is aimed at developing these qualities.

As a result of overcoming difficult stages, where each person is necessary, important and valuable, a responsible position towards each other and the team begins to form. The exercises are structured in such a way as to involve both active and insignificant members of the children's team, as a result of which each member of the group and the entire group as a whole participate in achieving their goals.

As a result, the squad becomes united, a friendly atmosphere is formed, mutual assistance skills are developed, barriers in communication are overcome, and leaders are identified. Children's camp Orlyonok holds such an event every shift for groups of middle and older ages.

Video clip competition

You can discover your abilities as a video clip maker, a very fashionable profession today, if you take part in the “Video Clip Competition” event. It is here that the guys will have to direct a video for any musical hit and perform it right on stage.

As a result, the entire camp will witness a new creation in the field of show business. Believe me, the clips created in our camp often turn out to be brighter, more fun and more ideological than those shown on television.

Day of "Memory of the Fallen"

Asphalt drawing competition

Who else but children can make the world brighter, kinder and brighter? In our camp, even gray asphalt paths become colorful when an asphalt drawing competition is held.

Most often, children paint the asphalt according to a given theme, for example, “May there always be sunshine,” “April Fool’s Day,” and others. The guys as a group come up with an idea and implement it. Walking around the camp, you understand that talented, kind and friendly children are vacationing in Orlyonka.

Christmas story

Each of us, whether a child or an adult, is waiting for a magical fairy tale with a good ending on New Year's Eve. In our children's camp during the winter shift, a fairy tale becomes a reality. Children and adults become fairy-tale characters. Bright costumes, interesting stories, humor and mysticism - immerses everyone in a festive atmosphere and impressions just a few hours before the New Year.

Our fairy tale cannot be complete without Father Frost and the Snow Maiden with a magic bag of gifts for children on the morning of January 1st. A lot of troubles haunt the main characters, but...good always triumphs over evil. Every year at the children's camp Orlyonok there is a new fairy tale, new heroes, new scenery and new children's impressions.

In 2019, at summer camp, children can relax in nature, gain strength and communicate with peers. Many establishments offer an extensive cultural and entertainment program.

In the camps there are hobby groups, various quizzes, competitions, hikes, evenings around the fire, and concerts. You can use them to stage funny skits for summer camp, which the kids love so much.

The first funny scene from camp life takes place in the dining room. A boy and a girl are sitting at the table. The girl asks:

- Vovochka, why don’t you eat your yogurt?
– You see, it hasn’t fully loaded yet...
- What, what?
- Well, look, it says 15%. So I'm waiting for it to load 100% so I can eat it.

Scenes for camp holidays and weekends can include interesting incidents from the children’s lives. For example, in a skit for camp counselors, you can imagine swimming in a river or lake.

Several guys and a physical education teacher participate in this miniature. He instructs children about water safety rules. The first group of children is swimming. When the physical education teacher gives the signal to go ashore, they do not go out, but, having filled their lungs with air, dive.

The physical education teacher does not notice this. And then, when another group of children enters the river, he decides to count the swimmers. It turns out that there are more of them than necessary.

The physical education teacher runs along the shore and says:
- What to do? What to do? Where to put the extra children?!

Finally, he makes up his mind, goes into the water and “drowns” the extra guys in the river. This funny summer camp skit can be staged for Neptune Day.

Funny scenes from the life of a summer camp are often staged based on various fairy tales. For example, you can prepare a skit for camp holidays and weekends based on the fairy tale “Masha and the Bear.”

The girl Masha, who was relaxing at a summer camp, went into the forest and got lost and meets a Bear who wants to eat her. But Masha shouts loudly: “I need to be taken to the camp urgently, otherwise I will be late for the dining room!”, and the Bear retreats.

He even invites her to catch Kolobok for lunch, who left his grandparents and also got lost in the forest. But Masha refuses and asks Bear if he is oriented to the cardinal directions.

– Do you know which side is north?
-What is north? – the Bear is surprised.
– I was lucky to meet the Ignorant Bear! – Masha laments.
- Don’t call me names, otherwise I’ll still eat you! - says the Bear.

But Masha squeals so loudly that he decides to take her to the camp.
“You better go to your people, otherwise your screams will keep my ears ringing for another week,” he says and leads Masha to the camp.

And a skit with the participation of counselors at a summer camp can be staged by remaking the fairy tale “Sleeping Beauty” in a new way and depicting the morning awakening of the children in it.

Children associate summer camp with fun and a good mood, so the task of adults is to provide just such an experience. The correct selection of events is the key to the success of organizing a camp.

let's get acquainted

Any summer camp always includes getting to know each other. It is preferable to use elements of psychological training in the program of a holiday of this kind. These could be exercises to remember each other’s names, recognizing the character traits and interests of all participants. Group games or activities where it is impossible to get the desired result without the participation of at least one person from the squad or team are also well received by children.

Dating in the form of a sporting event involves just such team games. For example, ordinary or “untangling the web” in most cases helps even strangers get closer. And this can be the key to peaceful coexistence of vacationers until the end of the shift and minimizing the ideal option if, at the end of the event, most of the children remember each other by name.

How can we become friends?

Conflicts, both minor and major, are completely inevitable. The main task of adults is to prevent them from flaring up and developing into a kind of war between units or within them. Such cases are not uncommon, so a summer camp event for unity comes to the rescue.

Unlike games for the purpose of getting to know each other, games and numbers in this category already shift the emphasis from the concept of “I” to the concept of “We”. The detachments became small separate groups, with their own rules and traditions. Here you can offer an event such as “Treasure Search”. Usually the first half of the day is allotted to him, starting from the moment when the children are still sleeping. Teachers collect a large amount of sweets, fruits and other little things pleasant for children, put them in a large bag and hide them on the camp grounds. Next, you need to create a map indicating the places where the children will be tested. Such cards are made in the required quantity, one copy per squad. Here you can choose one of the options:

The map is divided into fragments, each of which gives a hint where to look for the next piece.
You must pass a certain test to get a hint on the route to find the treasure.

Here everyone is given the opportunity to prove themselves in the common task of searching for “treasure”. Thus, the goal of uniting children is achieved.

What adults and children love

Undoubtedly, a children's summer camp offers vacationers relative freedom and independence. Here children are transported to a new environment where they can express themselves, meet each other, make friends and even fall in love. From time to time it is useful to hold entertainment events where an atmosphere of fun and music reigns, of course, within the bounds of decency. Of course, we are talking about discos and similar entertainment events. Dance performances, song competitions and practical jokes are appropriate during any period of the shift. They will dilute educational and sporting events.

Counselors must take part in games with the children, thereby confirming their involvement and interest in maintaining a positive atmosphere in the camp. It is better to organize karaoke, masquerades and other entertainment in the evening, after traditional scheduled activities, and not make them strictly time-regulated.

and others

Scenarios for summer camp events often include stage plays where roles are assigned. This is especially true for themed holidays. A change in a summer camp necessarily includes an event dedicated to Neptune Day, Ivan Kupala Day, etc. The choice of one or another event depends on the type of camp and its organization, as well as So, for example, a summer school camp is much more limited in its capabilities . Events dedicated to the water festival are held less spectacularly and fully. But sports events can be organized on a larger scale, with the active involvement of all children.

Play, have fun and... learn

Around the middle of the shift, it’s worth remembering a little about school days and testing the children’s knowledge, at the same time reminding them that school is just around the corner. In this case, summer camp activities that focus on school subjects will be helpful. Various types of quizzes, games like “What? Where? When?”, intellectual duels and competitions are an excellent opportunity to train your memory and intellectual activity. For more active participation of children, it is worth motivating them with possible prizes, and choosing one of the children of senior school age as a jury to evaluate competitions.

We invite you to visit

Continuing the topic of thematic events and subject quizzes, it is worth mentioning profession holidays or patriotic dates. They can be organized with the invitation of representatives of this profession, or those who can talk about this or that event. For example, celebrated at the end of July, you can imagine it as an evening of military songs, invite a military man to it - a representative of this Children will be interested to learn about the specifics of the profession and ask questions to the guest.

Themselves with a mustache: children as adults

Goodbye, see you new summer

The closing of the camp should be marked with a grand celebration to emphasize the importance of the time spent here. A little sad, but a necessary event for a summer camp should be organized at the highest level. We need to put in maximum creative effort and effort so that the children remember the shift as something amazing and positive. And subsequently they wanted to visit the camp again. Games and competitions on this day should not be similar to other squad events. At summer camp, the shift is coming to an end, and here it is worth remembering all the good moments. It would be appropriate to organize a photo exhibition, the performance of joint songs and dances, large psychological games, etc. An obligatory point of the program is the exchange of impressions. This traditional summer camp event is different in that it does not involve a team element. In some ways akin to a discovery, it is based on the idea of unity and community of all vacationers.

Well, let's sum it up. When choosing an event for a summer camp and drawing up its script, first of all you need to focus on the preferences of the children. What kind of joy and positivity can we talk about if the wards are not very interested in games and tasks? Creativity, imagination and ingenuity, combined with teaching skills, will help organize unforgettable days of summer holidays at a children's camp.

Miss camp

"Miss Camp" is one of the most favorite events of children and counselors at the children's camp. This is a show that everyone will remember for the rest of their lives. Each girl-competitor has a chance to receive the title and crown of “Miss Camp” for the whole year. Preparation for the competition is an important component of the success of the event. In the children's camp, each contestant is helped by counselors, circle leaders and a large number of friends.

Russian day

Have you ever been woken up to the accordion and children's laughter by cheerful guys and girls dressed in Russian folk costumes, dancing and playing all kinds of musical instruments such as rattles, spoons, and whistles? No? Then you don’t know what it’s like to wake up in a great mood at a children’s camp! And if you add to all this: a fun fair with various competitions, pancakes with condensed milk and jam, lots of goodies, jumping in an inflatable castle (trampoline), horse riding, Russian folk games.

Plus a wonderful costumed Russian fairy tale, in which children and camp counselors take part. And at the end there is a festive disco! It's hard to believe, but this all happens on one day, on the Russian day that the children's camp is holding!

Night

It’s a shame, boring and unfair when you’re bursting with energy and want to walk, jump and have fun all night long, but at the children’s camp the all-clear sounds. What a blessing that Night exists! The time of romance of the night, the beauty of the falling stars, the freshness of the wind and the mystery of the pink dawn. The camp falls asleep, and the squad, dressed warmly and taking everything they need, sets off into the night. A fire, potatoes baked on coals, bread fried over a fire, songs with a guitar, horse riding, scary stories and, finally, watching the dawn...

Tourist relay race

In the middle of an ordinary sunny day, an alarm suddenly sounds at a children's camp. What is this? Fire? Disaster? War? No! This is a relay race! Everyone comes running to the line, the units are being rolled out, the number of children is being counted, and the relay race starts! This means that a team from each camp squad is put up for a serious battle of the most resilient, fastest and most dexterous.

Christmas story

Our fairy tale cannot be complete without Father Frost and the Snow Maiden with a magic bag of gifts for children on the morning of January 1st. A lot of troubles haunt the main characters, but...good always triumphs over evil. Every year at the children's camp there is a new fairy tale, new heroes, new scenery and new children's impressions.

Leader concert

The shift is coming to an end... And everyone sums up the unforgettable days of relaxation at the children's camp. They thank their friends, the camp, their counselors. And the counselors sadly say goodbye to the children who have become family to them. All their skills and talents come in handy at the counselors’ concert in order to express their emotions and feelings for the past shift at the children’s camp. The counselors read poetry, show skits, dance, and play musical instruments. There is a place for lyrics, humor, and a splash of energy. And finally, a farewell song... And here, wiping away our tears, we all understand that the shift was not in vain... And at the end - the leader’s light. All the counselors sit in a semicircle on stage and say something very sad about the shift. Like, “It was so cool, oh, I don’t want to leave.” At this time, the children begin to cry little by little, and the counselors too. And when everyone has finished speaking, the magic phrase sounds: “And now you can go up to your counselors and hug them.”

Vozhatsky Impromptu.

The point is that 3 days before it, the children begin to hand in notes with tasks for the counselors, and then the counselors toil through the bullshit assigned by the children on stage. Someone showed a blonde driving, someone danced a tectonic dance, someone read a rap about how trees grow. And the children are preparing a performance for their counselors. Sometimes it’s a parody, but more often it’s a story about how “clean our counselors are” and the ceremonial cutting out of a hefty heart from whatman paper and a hug. All counselors’ performances are usually prepared and rehearsed in advance, during quiet time. There are numbers where a couple of people sing, and the rest come out as backup dancers, having learned about the number right before going on stage. Impromptu rules.

Sympathy Day

Everyone at the children's camp is looking forward to this day, both boys and girls, both small and large. On this day, there are many options to confess your love, express your sympathy, and send congratulations. You can receive and send a Valentine card through the “angels” postal service with recognition and congratulations. You can call the local telephone number on the children's camp radio and order a song, say hello and congratulations.

It’s very nice to hear your voice on the radio broadcast throughout the entire camp. In addition, you can send SMS from your mobile phone, which are displayed in real time on the screen of the televisions located in each building. During this entire time, both children and adults can come to the video room and record their congratulations. The evening before the film, the entire children's camp gathers for a film screening, before which everyone eagerly awaits video greetings on the club's big screen.

Fair

By taking part in competitions and creative tasks, children earn “rubles” from the children’s camp. Making money is fun, but how to spend it? Here you need a smart head and competent financial calculations, because you can order a song, ride a horse, buy sweets, souvenirs, toys.

Adventure Night

Mysterious events always attract people. Adventure Night at Children's Camp is a trail of challenges in the dark with scary stories and characters for older children and fairy tale characters for younger children. On the way you may meet large wild animals, souls of pioneers, monsters, skeletons, zombies, crosses, ghosts, a headless horseman...

Rope course

As a result, the squad becomes united, a friendly atmosphere is formed, mutual assistance skills are developed, barriers in communication are overcome, and leaders are identified. The children's camp holds such an event every shift for groups of middle and older ages.

Merry Express

Stolen afternoon tea

At the children's camp, older children can show their directorial and creative abilities by preparing the "Sweet Tree" event for the little ones. The kids come to the camp cafeteria for afternoon tea, and there’s a bunch of pirates stealing their rightful sweets right in front of them.

The day “The investigation was carried out...”.

On this day, according to legend, the director of the camp was stolen. Fairytale villains stole it and hid it. The whole day is devoted to various police procedures to find a chief. In the morning, portraits of fairy-tale villains were hung at the entrance with a request to remember these faces, as the police were looking for them. Then the line announced the disappearance of the chief. Then the children draw these villains in groups based on verbal descriptions. It's like a "photo sketch".

Then they go through the stations: Obstacle Course, Evidence, Sharp Eye, Codebreakers. At the last station they had to decipher where the director was hidden and run to free him. She could be sitting in another building with her hands tied. Liberators are rewarded with sweets.

Benefit performance of Baba Yaga.

From each detachment, B-Y advances. They compete with each other.

Event "Hometown" (if all the camp children are from one small city).

Each squad receives a map of their city enlarged several times. There, children must find the street where they live and color it. Find out its history and attractions. Then at the final event the maps will be hung up and it will be clear who lives where and on what streets. Next is the photo quiz “What? Where?”, where you need to determine from the photos what it is and where it is located. It should be very difficult to find out, since some part of the building will be photographed.

Cities.

Each counselor is given a sign with the name of the city and distributed throughout the camp (so that the children do not find it). The units are given a list of cities, each in a different order. You need to find the right city, in the right sequence. It turns out very interesting: if the children found their last city, but cannot find the first one.

A hundred questions about my homeland.

There are questions about your country hanging on the trees around the camp; you need to find them and answer them.

"Day Watch".

Complex puzzles are prepared in advance, where you need to know the place and the background of the place and generally know a lot of things :) At one time, 1 task is distributed to each squad. The task is to find a place, solve the riddle as quickly as possible and, running to the headquarters, receive a new, next task, but this is provided that the previous one is completed correctly. And so it is necessary to collect all the tasks. If the squad finds it difficult to complete a task, you can ask for a hint, but penalty minutes will be added for this. Another condition is that the entire squad must participate (except for the sick).

Guests

These activities occupy a special place in the structure of the organizational period of the camp shift and are designed to help the child feel involved in the new community (squad), become an accomplice in its success, and experience this success as his own.

The teacher can help the child with this if he tries to take into account the dominant goals of the children’s activities as much as possible when developing any activity:

For yourself for a group for a squad

Typically, guest appearances are impromptu game programs for two to four groups who come to visit each other. Their meaning is as follows: “to see others” (and make sure that they are quite friendly and suitable for playmates and buddies), “to show ourselves” (and make sure that we are no worse, we also know how to do something and can even surprise) .

To successfully carry out this task, the counselor, firstly, needs to treat the material below (well known to many for a long time) only as creative “raw material”, and secondly, think in advance about how to correctly distribute the creative load during the visit between children and counselors. We will be glad if the proposed ideas help to captivate the children, and make your work joyful and not tiresome for you.

So, when going on a visit, teams usually prepare a business card in any form (song, dance, poetry, etc.). In addition, etiquette does not advise visiting without a gift, so preparing and presenting a surprise for guests or hosts at a visit will also become a tradition.
