Festive table for February 23 in the office.

February gives us a lot of good mood. Even without looking at the blizzards outside the window. We still love this month. Firstly, this is the last winter month and spring is about to come. And secondly, what may be more important, this month is a wonderful holiday - the day of the defender of the fatherland. Have you already decided how to surprise men on February 23 in the office at work and how to please them? Some of our ideas will help you, and you can choose the ones that you can bring to life.

And so, preparation for the holiday must begin in advance. Think carefully and decide together with other girls.

Meeting of colleagues.

First, think about how to organize a meeting of colleagues in the morning. You can make an impromptu checkpoint where soldiers will be on duty, that is, girls dressed in soldier's clothes. You meet men at the checkpoint, ask them for their full name in the form, write it down in a notebook and issue a pass to enter the territory. You can ask for a password or callsign.

And if you want, you can pour a glass after the correct password.
Such a checkpoint will be an unexpected surprise for everyone. You will see how men will be surprised and will not immediately understand what is happening.

Holiday in the office.

After the checkpoint, they get to their jobs. Don't let them in right away. First, let them pass the test and prove that today they are ready to go to the end.
Tests can be very different, for example, let everyone solve a rebus on a military theme. Who guessed it, he comes to himself. Whoever fails, he receives a fine: push-ups or he must make coffee for everyone.

Further, when everyone is sitting in their places and working, the alarm sounds. This means that everyone should run out into the corridor. Soldier girls are already waiting for them in the corridor, dividing the men into two teams. Each team gets a task.

First task.
Both teams stand in a circle. The girls take and tangle their hands. That is, they connect their hands as they want and the men do not let them go. On command, both teams should begin to unravel. But you can't let go! The first team to unravel gets one point.

Second task.
Each team has a three-liter jar of water on the table. At the bottom of the jar is a small jar. And on the table are coins, 7 pieces in each pile. In turn, all team members must take one stack of coins and, holding their hand over the jar, but without touching the water, release the coins into the water. Task: to get as many coins as possible into a small jar inside. It is not easy to do this, since even coins cannot cope with water resistance and go into different sides. After that, it is calculated how many coins each team was able to send to the bank in the bank.

Third task.
Each participant has a phone with a camera. They take turns taking and taking out sheets of paper with assignments. The assignments say the following:
- take a picture of three girls.
- take a picture of a couple in love.
- take pictures of birds in the snow.
- take a picture of two smoking people.

And so on, any tasks. When everyone has received the task, then on command they leave or run away to complete the task. As someone completed the task, he comes back. When one team is fully assembled, the girl's soldiers check how they did everything. If everything is clear, then this is a victory. If not, then the second team has a chance.

After all the tests, the girls invite the men to the soldiers' canteen.

Soldier's canteen.

Everything is simple here: you organize the table, set it. Pay special attention to snacks. Serve canned food, stew and other dishes that are popular with soldiers in wartime.
You will surely have alcohol. So. Make beautiful labels for it. You can with photos of your colleagues, or you can with unusual military inscriptions, for example, an atomic bomb, a strategic reserve, a Suvorov cocktail, and so on.

Holiday entertainment.

Do not forget about entertainment and at the holiday. It is unlikely that you and your colleagues will want to just sit at the table, drink and eat. need to have some fun and play.
First of all, you can once again congratulate colleagues. Only this time with songs.

It is worth thinking about what games and contests you will hold at the holiday. If colleagues are tired of completing previous competitions, then prepare something simple for them that can be held at the table. For example, you can assemble an automatic machine for speed! But not real, and from the puzzle. To do this, you need to print a photo of the machine, cut the picture into pieces and then put it all back together.

And at the end of the evening, be sure to give memorable gifts and postcards. Arrange a photo session that will forever leave this beautiful day in memory and in photographs.

Very often, team building, friendly relations with colleagues and a comfortable atmosphere in the office result in the celebration of special days of the calendar with colleagues. And February 23 is no exception. Today we will touch on the question "how to celebrate February 23 at work", because almost all offices and organizations celebrate this day, but mostly trite with food and drink. And it is necessary that the holiday, firstly, be liked by the heroes of the occasion, and secondly, be memorable.

How interesting to celebrate February 23 at work

Remember, the holiday should start in the morning, so come to the office early and send it to your male colleagues by e-mail holiday greetings. You can do this in poetic form, especially on the Internet you can find a bunch of interesting and funny rhymes-congratulations.

Well, if you do not have a computer for each member of your team, then we advise you to make postcards in advance, they can be ordered with the emblem of your company.

To celebrate February 23 at work is interesting, you can prepare several posters 2-3 days before the holiday, make a wall newspaper and so on, that is, it will be a kind of big greeting card for everyone.

You can prepare one funny booth, for example, by sticking pictures of men on celebrity bodies and writing funny captions on them. For example, glue the head of your guard on the shoulders of the dwarf from the fairy tale Snow White.

During the day, try not to swear with male colleagues, be patient, remember, All Men's Day comes only once a year, make men happy. In the evening, you can arrange a feast, laying the table at home.

How else can you celebrate February 23 at work. Distribute among yourself who can bake, buy what, make sure that the table is well set. No need to buy cakes, instead bake pancakes and serve them with red caviar.

After the feast, men can be invited to the nearest shopping center and play billiards or bowling there. Well, if your colleagues are fans of a team, give them tickets to a game of your favorites. But this should only be done if you are sure of the preferences of your colleagues, otherwise it will be just a useless gift.

If you have a total set amount for men's gifts, count the number of men in your organization, and by dividing the amount equally, try to buy each of them an individual gift.

For example, a system administrator who is fond of computer games present a novelty of the game industry. Give the hockey fan a stick and a scarf. If you have time, order T-shirts with photos of male colleagues and sign each T-shirt.

February 23 at work - ideas for a holiday

If officially February 23 is referred to as Defender of the Fatherland Day, then for many it has become a national Men's Day. Almost every year female part the working collective and family congratulates their men on this significant holiday, and very often wall newspapers are made in enterprises and organizations.

We note right away that it will not be difficult to make a wall newspaper by February 23 at work, and even those who are far from drawing and journalism can take up this, the main thing in this matter is to show a little imagination.

- Whatman sheets (the number depends on the size of the future newspaper);
- ordinary paints;
- PVA glue or silicate;
- scissors;
– colored paper;
- You will also need newspaper and magazine clippings that talk about military topics;
- poems of congratulations for each hero of the occasion.

First, we write the name of the wall newspaper for the celebration of February 23 at work, for this we use bright colors or paste large letters cut out of colored paper. This is a kind of attractive maneuver, the bright letters of your wall newspaper will be visible from afar, and this will guarantee that your wall newspaper will certainly be appreciated. As a rule, such an inscription should occupy no more than a quarter of the entire wall newspaper.

In the upper left part we place the official obligatory congratulations on the holiday. Then, just below, you can post news on the topic of the armed forces, we cut them out in advance from magazines and newspapers. The main thing is to choose news that will be of interest to the male part of the team.

Also, for the wall newspaper, you will need various poems about the courage and fearlessness of the stronger sex, you can take poems about the years of the war, all these materials can be found on the Internet. In addition, the wall newspaper can be supplemented with lighter materials, for example, humorous notes on the topic of the army and service, various jokes on the army theme, the main thing is not to overdo it.

In addition, in the wall newspaper you need to use photos of your team members, you can take funny photos and sign these moments of life, or you can take ordinary photos and sign them taking into account the nature of this or that employee. For example, a person who constantly quarrels with everyone can be jokingly referred to as "The most vociferous", etc.

At the very end of the wall newspaper, you can hang a holiday announcement that will tell you where and when the Defenders of the Fatherland Day will be celebrated and in what form you should come to the corporate party. This is how you can make a wall newspaper and celebrate February 23 at work in an interesting and exciting way.

Defender of the Fatherland Day is historically associated with the honoring of victorious warriors, honorable veterans and servicemen. But you can be a defender not only with a weapon in your hands, and therefore we do not miss the opportunity to thank and congratulate all the dear men around us.

Not a single team misses this day the opportunity to praise the representatives of the stronger sex. The corporate party is becoming a tradition. At the same time, the scenario for February 23 can be very diverse: starting from fun in a cafe and ending with a trip to nature with the whole company.

If you are hosting a party in the office, take some time to prepare the event. In the plan-scenario for February 23 for a corporate party, include items such as

• themed decorations;
• selection of "masculine" music;
• hearty feast;
• toast tips;
• contests-competitions;
• practical gifts;

This scenario is suitable for holding a holiday in a restaurant hall or an office conference room. Participants sit at the festive tables, the corporate party is held by two presenters.

Good afternoon, dear guests!

According to statistics, we spend most of our time at work and it is very important that the microclimate is positive. This is facilitated by good friendly relations between colleagues, the corporate spirit of the company, preferably supported by finances from the founders, the loyal attitude of management at various levels to holding office holidays, gatherings, get-togethers. I was lucky, to this day I have only worked in such organizations, which I sincerely wish you, my dear guests.

It so happened that in our team there are more than 2 times more men. Always want to give the right useful gift, but this requires money and, as practice shows, a lot. A solution was found, they began to think how to creatively congratulate men on February 23. I will describe the most successful 3 ways to congratulate men on Defender's Day in the office.

The arrival of the rock band.

Rock band "In Tokyo we want"

For a treat, they decided that everyone would cook at home any dish of their choice: they baked a cake, made bagels with marmalade in puff pastry, spring rolls, an appetizer roll in pita bread with fish, and even mincemeat. The treats were not served all at once, but throughout the day, each time personally inviting men to the table to taste this or that dish.

Drawn in advance from cardboard boxes musical instruments, one employee turned out to draw well. Decided to do musical congratulations in the form of the arrival of the rock band “We want to Tokyo”. Toward evening we dressed accordingly, found various chains, bandanas, T-shirts with skulls and all sorts of rocker stuff. They came out, said many more kind words, congratulated the men on February 23, and then we sang to them under the backing track ditties, which we had previously composed about each. It was very funny to watch such rockers singing ordinary Russian ditties. By the way, they are the easiest to compose, no special poetic talent is required. We were greeted very vigorously by our men, encouraged.

Building a women's squad

The following year, the situation in the ratio of men and women did not change, we decided to act according to the same scheme. Headdresses of various branches of the military were prepared in advance by us: a border cap, a blue beret for a paratrooper, a peakless cap, a marine beret, and so on. They came up with the idea of ​​making a formation and marching to the congratulations of men to the song-alteration "We honestly want to tell you."

We honestly want to tell you, we look at you men most of all.

Without you, we are bored and dreary everywhere. Who will tell us where, why, to whom and where.

Chorus: And how to live without you, well, tell me, tell me.

Where are we without you? yes, just nowhere.

No wonder everyone says that without men it's a problem

and we agree with that once and for all!

We must honestly tell you, we love you and cherish you very much.

Without a doubt, you are the best with us, we know for sure that we will succeed with you.

Chorus: the same

I was chosen as the commander of an impromptu detachment, I went out first and shouted:

Step march!

Reckless!

What? the girls answer.

Squad, line up!

Right now, just smear your lips.

Squad, stand in one line!

Run out, become on growth. Then I give the command:

Rogue, be quiet! Count in order!

The girls are calculated, the last one in the ranks says not the number, but the word “Last”, moreover, in a pitiful voice.

Squad, pay off for the first or second!

Squad, stand in two lines! Left! march on the spot!

And after a few seconds:

Squad, sing a song!

Before the chorus, I turned them to the right, and then before the second verse, again to the right.

Detachment! Stay where you are! One-two! Left! At ease, you can recover and smoke!

After such a march, the men were delighted, they looked at our hats for a long time, asked where we got them from, remembered where they themselves served, in which branches of the military.

After congratulations, we handed our men magazines "Maxim", which we bought in advance. We also took pictures of everyone in advance, printed out the photo in A4 size and simply pasted it on the cover of magazines. There are photomask sites where you can do this for free and easily, and also make inscriptions in the form of headings for articles.

After such congratulations on the Defender's Day, our men said that women at work had never congratulated them like that anywhere.

Fulfillment of desires.

Another one from interesting congratulations men on February 23. They wrote in advance on the sheets of desire, offered to choose one for each. Everyone came up with different desires, but some can be repeated, the condition was the same - the fulfillment should be only during the day, but by any employee of your choice.

Pour tea or coffee at any time and any employee;

Head massage with such a special massager, from which goosebumps run;

Hand massage, followed by application of hand cream;

Addressing me Your Excellency to all the co-workers;

Contact me Your Eminence to all employees;

Treat me delicious;

Bow before me to all employees;

Kiss me to three employees to choose from;

All the wishes were printed on pieces of paper and folded into triangles, following the pattern of letters received in the army, they put a small postcard with congratulations there. One girl dressed up as a postman and handed out letters. For the director, we marked the letter with a wish to address Your Royal Majesty and made it so that he chose it. I had to use a trick, but everyone was happy, especially the director.

They also made plates with military terms by analogy with the office names of the premises:

Director - rate

Chief of Staff

Warehouse - penal battalion

Smoking room -kapterka

Dining room - field kitchen

The girls are sitting in the medical unit, the girls were given bandages with a red cross on their arm

Accounting Tribunal

Trade hall-voentorg

Logistician - field mail

Where the name of the company is the red army

Toilet - lip (guardhouse)

We found a poem on the Internet, prepared it by dividing it among all the employees, recited it by heart and tried to do it very artistically. Our men were very pleased.

“In February, over a cup of cappuccino, girlfriends began to discuss:

Where can we, girls, find a real man with you?

Natasha painted them juicy: how can you not know this?

Abroad, girls, we urgently need to meet a gentleman!

There in Europe with this case it is better, if my taste does not change,

Guys are cooler than each other - Italian, German and French!

Thick mascara lay on the eyelashes, the girls dreamed about one thing,

How a passionate Italian will perform a Serenade at night under the window.

How a German will charm in Berlin, you will be lucky in magical BEMV,

And the Frenchman will kiss the hand so that the soul, like a bird, will sing!

Only suddenly a concern came to mind: what is it like to live next to them?

Can any of the three, for example, even screw in a light bulb?

Who will force you to go on a hike, to the guitar by the fire in the forest

A heartfelt song will drag on about love and girlish beauty?

Who will competently fry potatoes, even if you eat the whole pan now?

Who will tenderly give us tulips on the eighth of March in the spring?

With whom sometimes you and a woman, you and a horse, you and a bull,

And (infrequently, but it happens) I apologize, and man?

What are you talking about? Why are you talking about our men in vain?

Who then protects us from the overseas enemy?

Who will save a computer from a virus and set up the tablet correctly?

With whom is it so good and so comfortable that you forget about the word “No”?

Who will fix the iron for us in no time? On a holiday, who walks with all his heart?

Who will embrace with a strong hand? Who will comfort like no one else?

How beautiful Rome, Berlin and Nice! We just don't get it all.

Signors abroad are good, but their own peasants are nicer!

Promises happiness abroad, only our answer today is simple:

We will raise a toast to you - beloved, real, native men!

I suggest you take a walk around the store. cool gifts, perhaps you will find ideas about what to give to colleagues at work. Many unusual little things will help you solve this issue.

I also have an assembly of dance music for your holiday, it is many years old, but both old and young dance to it, there is also a MIX for a dance competition. You can download for free

It is also unusual to congratulate you by sending a musical greeting to your phone, there are a lot of options,

When you are preparing to congratulate men on February 23 at work, you voluntarily or involuntarily think that it would be nice to receive a pleasant and creative congratulation on March 8, and not just a template set of words and a bouquet in your hands. To my great regret, in my professional activities there has never been a worthy congratulation on Women's Day, which I would like to tell you about.

Let's be friends with pages.

The holiday of men, the day of the defender of the fatherland, will come soon. Well, of course, women are already thinking about how to congratulate men on February 23, and what gift to give.

(I’ll immediately advise you to put alcohol on the table, but the question is different - how much to put? The answer is the norm - the golden mean, so that there isn’t a lot so that you drink until you lose your pulse, but so that there isn’t even a little, or rather, you need to put a festive bouquet of wine is more like a symbol of the holiday and respect for those who are going to congratulate.And the bouquet is simple - champagne, vodka, cognac and a bottle of good wine for women and girls present at the holiday.Some women decide not to put alcohol at all because of fear that men get drunk, or rather get drunk, but this approach is not correct, it offends men, so it is necessary to put wine on the table, at least symbolically at least a bottle. here, let's look at some ideas-notes about the holiday of February 23 and how to organize a holiday for your men and congratulate them so that they remember your congratulations not with their minds, but with their hearts.
