Festive event at the school "New Year!"

The most long-awaited and favorite holiday for many is the new year. All the people are waitinghim with excitement, hoping and believing that he will be better, luckier, happier. It's not a secret for anyone that it is the most long-awaited for schoolchildren. After all, for them, the New Year is not only winter holidays, but all kinds of entertainment, competitions, surprises.Skillfully, thoughtfully organizing a New Year's holiday, filling it with the necessary content is the task of a smart teacher who loves children. What is the best way to do this so that the guys have enough memories for a whole year?

Firstly, as for any holiday, you need to prepare in advance for the New Year: decorate a Christmas tree, decorate a room or class, etc. Of course, for this you can get by with store-bought Christmas decorations, garlands. But it is better, in our opinion, if holiday decoration will be handmade by children.

Let it be a snowflake cut out of a napkin, or a familiar paper lantern, or a garland of rings. The main thing is that the child then sees his toy and feels his involvement in preparing for the holiday.

Secondly, it is necessary to think over the festive entertainment program: learn poems, songs, prepare various contests, games, pick up musical accompaniment. Arrange and hand out invitations to guests in advance. And also take care of the prizes!

Thirdly, you need to do together with your parents new Year costume. It is enough to turn on your imagination, add a little skill, patience and model from fabric shreds, paper, fur, old clothes lovely suit. By the way, there is one very important, in our opinion, positive moment in this: no one will definitely have such an outfit.

Fourth, on the eve of the New Year, adults need to think about gifts for their children. Traditional sweet gift sets. But, probably, everyone expects some kind of miracle from the New Year! Everyone, especially children, associates this holiday with the fulfillment of cherished dreams.

Maybe from a letter to Santa Claus that you write and send with your child, or maybe from simple communication with children, caring and loving parent will find, in our opinion, the opportunity to find out what his son or daughter would like to receive as a gift. And he will make every possible effort so that the childhood dream comes true, and the feeling of magic does not leave the childish souls for as long as possible.

The tree was great this year. Beauty in the room! Although the children were different ages, it seemed interesting to everyone. The script is very original. And the songs are so funny. I liked that all the children were involved - they sang and danced. At the end of the holiday, a photo session with Santa Claus took place. Many thanks to the teachers-organizers of this action, the children participating in the performance. We express our gratitude to the sponsors Golikov A.N. and Mikhailov V.A. who always give gifts to children.

With what pleasure, for many years now, our children have been making a trip to the New Year tree in the Western Dvina. How much joy of impressions they receive.

In conclusion, I would like to say that everyone needs positive emotions, especially children.

May the New Year that we celebrate be a happy year in our lives! And all the good things that we dream about will come true, come true, happen!
