Christmas is family, kind and quiet holiday. But you can meet him not only with your family, but also in the company of noisy friends. To make the holiday truly unusual, it is important to think through the Christmas scenario in advance, as well as prizes and gifts for guests.
How to organize a Christmas party so that it is fun and unusual? We bring to your attention several entertaining ideas for meeting one of the most important church holidays per year.
Christmas scenario - let's celebrate the holiday brightly
It’s not customary to celebrate Christmas with a big, noisy group, but it doesn’t matter if you make an exception. Perhaps you have a big, cheerful and Friendly family, or maybe you want to invite friends and have a special holiday, because the opportunity to get together does not come often.
Preparing a house or apartment
According to tradition, the main attribute of the New Year and Christmas holidays is the Christmas tree. You can get by with a composition of fir branches. For Christmas, you need to decorate your house with candles, themed compositions, souvenirs, buy or make your own nativity scene. Snowflakes, garlands, and colorful lights will not be out of place. In general, it’s a matter of imagination and the effect you want to achieve.
It’s worth hanging on the top of a Christmas tree or composition. Star of Bethlehem, and add biblical heroes to the branches. You can make them from cardboard or buy them in a store. This decision will allow you not just to celebrate another holiday, but to plunge into the history of Christmas and create a strong friendly atmosphere.
Weave a wreath of fir branches (can be replaced with bay leaves), place candles in the center of the composition. Electric lighting on this night can be completely replaced with candles. Next you need to create a Christmas script.
What is needed for this and how can you organize a holiday?
- Prepare costumes. The role of the Virgin Mary will be played by the hostess. Children will play the role of wise men. You will need a star, a manger, a doll. The star on the tree will do, but you can hang another one on the ceiling. The doll is Jesus born to Mary. Rehearse with the children in advance how the wise men, having seen the star, went to Bethlehem.
- Prepare gifts for guests. You can bake cookies with wishes and give them along with a postcard and a small themed souvenir.
- The attribute of the holiday is a rich table. Mandatory dishes are baked goose, duck or turkey, as well as kutya. Let each guest bring food with them.
- When the guests arrive, you need to light the candles, change clothes and prepare for the performance. Let the small scene become a real Christmas miracle for your guests. The rest of the holiday is worth spending in costumes.
- Congratulations follow. Let adults and children tell carols, for which they will receive cookies with congratulations. If someone cannot remember the carol, let them congratulate the guests on the holiday. The best and funniest carol, according to the guests, should be awarded a valuable prize, maybe a joke one.
- This is followed by a feast, competitions, games, and entertainment. You should also think through the games in advance and choose those that are suitable for the guests of the holiday.
- Get positive emotions and a boost of energy by watching a Christmas movie or comedy.
Games for Christmas
- You can hold a table competition according to traditions. Prepare questions and multiple answer options in case guests can't answer correctly.
- Hand out pieces of paper and a pen. Let everyone list the Christmas stories they know, including fairy tales, foreign and domestic films.
- Make a list of famous Christmas stories and prepare pictures for them. Let the guests of the holiday try to guess what story is depicted. As a hint, you can name the main and secondary characters.
- Crossword. On a large piece of paper, write the word "Christmas" in the center. Next, the guests, divided into two teams, must continue the crossword puzzle taking into account certain rules: the words must be Christmas themed; vertically and horizontally you cannot write close to the previous word, the distance should be one letter.
At the end of Christmas, you can go outside. Let the final note be fireworks, fireworks and just a good mood. You can walk around the city and congratulate passers-by on the holiday.
Christmas scenario for youth
Young people love active pastime. Therefore, games, songs and carols can be included in the Christmas script. Costumes and masks must be prepared in advance. Traditional characters - Goat, Baba Yaga, Fox. You also need to take care of a big homemade star and learn funny carols.
Texts of carols
Kolyada, Kolyada
Open the gates
Get out the chests
Serve the snouts.
Even a ruble
Even a nickel
Let's not leave home like that!
Give us some candy
Or maybe a coin
Don't regret anything

Dramatization of the fairy tale “The Golden Egg.”
Old woman. Hey old man, wake up quickly!
Old man. Are there wolves at the door?
Why are you making noise, old woman?
Old woman. Look what I found!!!
Our hen Pestrukha laid an egg under a bush!!!
Old man. Well, she took it down!? What's the matter?
What are you, woman, stunned?
Old woman. Yes, the egg is not a simple one,
And look - it's golden!!!
Old man. Golden???
Indeed!!!
Are you and I getting rich?
Old woman. Oh it's burning - it's blinding your eyes!!!
Old man. Miracles!
Old woman. Miracles!!!
Old woman. Oh, it's burning, it's burning like heat! There wouldn't be a fire!
Old man. Lock him in the chest. (knock on the door)
Old woman. There is no one at home!!!
Look, as luck would have it, the neighbors accidentally arrived!
Old woman. I'll go to the city on Wednesday.
There is a market there on Wednesday.
There are a lot of rich people there
I’ll sell them the egg.
How they will give me a pile of money, throw me rubles,
I'll get myself a sheepskin coat
I am Siberian sables.
I'll buy new things -
There are forty different skirts.
Blue floral shawl-
I'll fill my chest to the brim!
Old man. Why are you telling tales,
Look, you've found a young lady
Dress up in different trash.
No, if we are rich, I’ll build a hut instead
Three-story chambers and gazebos in the corners!
Old woman. Punishment with a stupid husband!
What are you, old man, don't be a whim!
We live no worse than others.
We don't need floors.
And your neighbors will laugh at you for these gazebos!
Old man. Let them laugh, I don’t feel sorry!!!
Old woman. Calm down, don't shout!
There's a rolling pin falling on the floor,
The cast iron rattles in the furnace.
Oh, I don’t like the white light!
Old man. Am I the owner or not!?
Old woman. Oh, the egg rolled!
It rolled and broke.
And there were no shells left, everything disappeared somewhere!!!
Old man. Well, why are we bothering!?
Miracles are just trouble!
We will live as we lived before
And work as always!
And you can fix your fur coat and fix your house.
Old woman. The only thing that seems reliable is what comes to us through hard work!
Old man. Open the door, old woman! Why should we hide now?
Old woman. Hey neighbor, hey neighbor! Forgetting friends is not a bad idea!
Come in for an hour - my kvass is good!
And pickles and jams,
Come in without hesitation!
(Granny appears - Riddle)
Grandma Riddle : Hello, good people! I am Grandma - Riddle, I wish you a Merry Christmas!
Leading: Hello Grandma- Riddle! We wish you a Merry Christmas too!
Leading: Grandma, tell the guys why they call you “Riddle.”
Grandmother-Riddle: I'm not an ordinary grandmother. I tell everyone fairy tales, show them, and I also know a lot of riddles and play games.
Leading: Will you play with us? Will you make riddles?
Grandmother-Riddle: My riddles today are not simple ones, but Christmas ones. Can you guess?(Children answer.)
There's a celebration in the whole world,
Because (Christmas)!
Not in palaces, and not in tents,
Baby Christ sleeps in (manger.)
How can they find the King?
The path will be shown to them (the star.)
There is nothing more humble in this world
A young girl (Maria.)
This angel brought news
That She (Christ) will be born.
The travelers took a long time to go to the census,
They did not find a place in the city:
Near Bethlehem there is a bare steppe,
The wretched one became their shelter... (Nativity scene)
Cave, manger, haystack,
Born in it... (Jesus Christ)
In the temples the face of the singers sings:
“Virgin today of the Transubstantial...” (gives birth)
This song, we know so,
It's called...(Kondak)
It shone in the dark sky then,
Lighting the way, holy... (Star)
Simple people learned the news.
In the night when the roosters had not yet crowed,
They hastened to the Baby's manger
And they glorified God... (Shepherds)
Behind the star, appearing
From the road blue,
It's a long road to Bethlehem
On three camels... (Magi)
(Santa Claus appears with a bag and sings “Christmas carol”)
Father Frost. Kolyada, Kolyada,
Give me some pie
Or a loaf of bread,
Or half a buck.
Who won't give me the pie?
That's a chicken leg.
Grandma-Riddle. How many years have I lived, but I haven’t seen Santa Claus go caroling.
Father Frost. Why am I worse than other mummers - a bear, a goat, a buffoon? I decided to come and play with the kids once again on Christmas Day. Otherwise, after Epiphany, it’s time for me to go into the forest, add more frost, strengthen ice bridges on the rivers, spread more snow on the fields so that the mother earth will give more harvests.
Grandma-Riddle. We are glad, Grandfather Frost, to see you, but you sing the wrong carols.
Father Frost. So how should it be?
Grandma-Riddle. Carols should bring joy glorifying Jesus Christ and His Birth, and not “beg”.
Do you guys know carols?
Let's play. Some of you will read a carol, and we will have to praise it with friendly applause or stamp our feet if this carol is not good. Ready?
(CHILDREN sing carols):
Lada-ladushki-palms,
Let's go for a more expensive one
Yes to the neighbors with Kolyada
There's a crowd for gifts.
Kolyada, Kolyada,
It's Christmas Eve!
Open the chests -
Get your heels out!
Kolyada - carol
Give grandma some pie.
Won't you give me the pie? -
Let's lead the cow by the horns.
Won't you give me some flatbread?
Let's break the windows.
Ay, doo, doo, ah, doo, doo
And I'm going into the house. The stove is heating up and I want pancakes.
Give me the sausage - extends his hand
I'll take it home.
Give me another one, I'll be generous!
Give me a third one too
Don't drive with a whip -
Grandfather will eat
Three beards
nod your mustache
And remember you!
To all kind people
We wish you goodness, gold, silver!
Lush pies,
Soft pancakes!
Good health!
Cow butter!
All. To whomever we sing songs, it will come true,
It will come true, it will not pass away.
Good health,
Cow butter!
Merry Christmas!
I wish you a Merry Christmas too,
Which came to your house.
I wish everyone, everyone, that you are healthy!
You lived together for many years.
Father Frost: The joyful days of Christmas have come,
And bright lights came on on the Christmas trees.
Christmas tree
Ours is lit today too!
The motley of its elegant
She makes the kids happy.
Round dance “Come to us Christmas tree”
Father Frost . Christmas - fun party. So let's have fun together. Do you want to play? The game is called: “What doesn’t happen on the Christmas tree?” I will name different objects to you if you hear the name Christmas decorations, you need to raise your hand up and say “Yes.” If I name something that doesn’t happen on the Christmas tree, I have to restrain myself and remain silent.

Shepherdesses with lamb
There in front of the Child
They got down on their knees,
Christ was glorified.
We carry God in our hearts,
We ask the King
Peace, happiness at home
Your big one.
God bless you,
We wish you with love
Live long life
And praise God!

Leading. Kolyada, Kolyada, would you like some pie?With onions, with peppers,With a mosquito heart.
Game "Pie".
Children stand in two ranks facing each other. A participant sits between the ranks, depicting a “pie”. Everyone sings: Yes, he is so tall,Yes, he is so wide,Yes, he’s so soft, Cut it and eat it.
While singing, when you hear the words “tall”, they raise their hands up, “wide” - they spread them to the sides, “soft” - they stroke the stomach. Immediately after the words “Cut it and eat it,” one participant from each line runs to the “pie.” Whoever touches the “pie” first takes it to his team, and the loser remains to pretend to be the “pie”. The group that takes the most “pies” wins.
Leading. How did Kolyada go?Walk along the street,Happy New Year! Kolyada, Kolyada, Where have you been before? Carolers. And I spent the night in the field,Now it has come to you!We sow, we sow, we sow,Happy New Year!

Scenario “Christmas is a holy holiday”
Scenario for children from 9 to 12 years old
Target: tell schoolchildren about the holiday in an interesting and accessible way Nativity
Characters: Storyteller, Joseph, Mary, Magi, Emperor Augustus.
Note: You can tell the story of the birth of Jesus using a homemade theater. The simplest thing is to make figurines of heroes and decorations from cardboard.
Storyteller. Hello guys! I am glad to see you as a guest. Especially today when we celebrate Holy holiday Christmas. Do you know what kind of holiday this is? I'll tell you now.
Long ago, more than two thousand years ago, Emperor Augustus was the ruler of Judea. And he wanted to find out how many people there were in his state, for which he ordered every resident to come to the city where he was born and sign up.
Joseph and his wife Mary went to Bethlehem, where Joseph was from. The road was very long and difficult. They reached the city late in the evening. We wanted to stay in a hotel, but there were no places there.
Joseph and Mary came to Bethlehem. Mary is waiting for Joseph, who has gone to the inn, to find out if there is room for them.
Joseph. This hotel is full. It looks like we'll have to spend the night in the open air.
Joseph and Mary leave.
Storyteller. At the edge of the city there was a cave into which shepherds drove their cattle in bad weather. Joseph and Mary found shelter there.
Quiet clear night
There are scatterings of stars in the sky.
In the city of Bethlehem
Jesus Christ was born
Angels sing songs
The baby is sleeping in the manger.
Our savior was born,
And the news flies across the earth.
That night Mary gave birth to a son, Jesus. And a new star lit up in the heavens. The Magi - wise men from the east - saw this star and came to King Augustus to find out where the baby was born.
Magi. Peace be with you, Emperor Augustus!
August. What brought you to my country?
Magi. We saw a star in the east, announcing the birth of the king of the Jews, and we came to worship him. Where was he born, tell us.
Storyteller. Hearing this, Augustus became alarmed. He ordered to gather all the high priests and scribes and asked where Christ should be born. They told him:
Scribes. In Bethlehem, for so it is written by the prophets.
August. Well, go to Bethlehem and find out everything about the baby, so that I can go and worship him.
Storyteller. The Magi went to Bethlehem. And the star that they saw in the east walked before them, and finally came and stopped over the place where the baby was.
Magi. Peace to your home. We came to bow to the king of Judah and bring gifts: gold, frankincense and myrrh.
Maria. Apparently your path has been long and difficult.
Joseph. Spend the night with us, and tomorrow you will hit the road.
Storyteller. An angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream and said to him:
Angel. Joseph, get up, take the baby and his mother and run to Egypt, and stay there until I tell you, for Augustus wants to look for the baby in order to destroy him.
Storyteller. Joseph got up, took the child and Mary, and went into Egypt at night. And the Magi went to their own country by a different route to avoid meeting Emperor Augustus.
All earthly inhabitants rejoiced at the birth of Jesus Christ: birds sang, plants bloomed. Only the Christmas tree stood sad. Apart from needles and pine cones, she had nothing; she had nothing to please the baby. But suddenly a bright star fell from the sky and crumbled into small pieces. And these sparkling different colors the fragments fell directly onto the branches of the Christmas tree. Now the Christmas tree sparkled as if it was decorated precious stones. Since then, people dress up the forest beauty every Christmas.
In the first days of Christmas, young people and children dressed up and went from house to house, singing Christmas carols. They conveyed wishes to the owners for wealth, a good harvest, and healthy children. And the owners presented the carol with various gifts.
Carols sound.
Storyteller. Christmas holidays have always been accompanied by fun, songs and dances, and funny games. Let's play with you too.
Games for children at Christmas
Game "Snowball Throwers"
To play, you need tennis balls (or snowballs made from thread, cotton wool and glue) and baskets for throwing balls. The players' task is to throw as many snowballs into the basket as possible. The game can be played either in a team or individually.
Game "Who's first?"
To play you need two chairs and a rope. On the playground, chairs are placed opposite each other, and a rope is placed on the floor between the chairs. Two players begin to move around the chairs. As soon as the command “Drag!” sounds, the players sit on chairs and pull the rope towards them. The first player to pull out the rope is the winner.
Ball racing game
Participants sit in a circle. Two players standing opposite each other receive a ball. At the leader’s signal, the players begin to pass the balls in a circle in one direction. The player who ends up with two balls at once is eliminated from the game.
Game "Snake"
Players stand in a column one after another and hold tightly to the belt of the participant in front. In this position, they begin to move around the playground. While moving, the first player in the column must catch the last one, and the last one must dodge the first one.
Game "Noah's Ark"
Players pull the names of animals out of the bag, but do not show or talk about what they took out. There can be no more than two names of each animal in the bag. Then the light in the room dims, and players, imitating the sounds of their animal, must find a mate. The search time is limited by the leader.
Game "Gifts of the Magi"
The host invites the players to put their hand into the bag of gifts and choose a gift for themselves. But the player will receive this gift only if he guesses by touch what kind of gift it is.
Storyteller. Well, dear guests, I invite you to the Christmas table.
The participants of the holiday sit down at the tables.
Storyteller. One of the favorite entertainments during the Christmas holidays was Christmas fortune telling. And I invite you to plunge into the atmosphere of the mystery of fortune telling and try fortune cookies. (The fortunes in the cookies must be positive.) Our holiday has come to an end. And I say goodbye to you until next year. Merry Christmas!
