The short duration and transience of summer camp shifts requires the rapid inclusion of the child in the activities of the temporary children's group. There is practically no time for “swinging up”, so involving children in play activity you need to start from the first minutes of meeting them. In our opinion, such an opportunity is provided already during the movement of children to their place of rest - to the camp.

As a rule, children travel by bus, and depending on the distance of the camp from the city, travel time can range from 30-40 minutes to 1.5-2 hours. What to do with children so that they take their minds off sad thoughts inspired by parting with their parents, and do not contemplate the landscapes passing outside the bus window with boredom and indifference?

It is best if the counselors introduce themselves to their charges once again. You can take on the role of a flight attendant and playfully “give out” the information the children need. For example:

Dear ladies and gentlemen! Ladies and gentlemen! We are pleased to welcome you on board our ship operating on the route Novosibirsk (Bryansk, Moscow, Krasnodar, etc.) - camp “Chkalovets” (“Eaglet”, “Raketa”, etc.). You are greeted by a friendly crew led by the pilot of our airliner (it would be nice to know the first and last name of the bus driver) Vladimir Ivanov and the flight attendants... (the names of counselors or teachers are called).

Let me introduce you to the rules of conduct in the cabin of the ship and how our journey will go. The floor is given to one of the wonderful flight attendants, wonderful and brilliant... (the name of your partner is called). Stormy applause!

- Dear passengers! Our route runs through one of the picturesque areas Western Siberia (Far East, Urals, Caucasus, Moscow region, etc.).

During your trip you can:

- joke and laugh (within the bounds of decency);

- play fun games(but don’t flirt);

- ask the flight attendants and each other questions that interest you;

- gaze out the window and enjoy the views (if you have time);

- get to know each other.

During travel it is strictly prohibited:

- be sad and cry;

- offend other passengers;

- move around the cabin of our aircraft unless absolutely necessary;

- throw unnecessary items out the bus windows;

- stick your own and other people’s limbs, including heads, out of the windows of the airliner (otherwise tomorrow there will be nothing to stick out);

- pointing fingers out the bus window (this is simply indecent!);

- make faces at oncoming and overtaking traffic (to avoid emergency situations);

- distract the crew commander from his work.

On board our liner there are 40 seats for passengers, two seats for passengers with children (that is, counselors), eight windows for admiring the nature and beauty of our region, one main and one emergency exit, two (three) flight attendants.

During our trip you will be offered short story about our region and our camp, games and jokes from our crew and, finally, refreshments.

Be sure to ask your children a few questions:

Are there anyone among you who might get seasick on our journey? Do you need our help? Are you embarrassed to ask for help when you need it?

In any case, you need to play with the children. In front of you is the interior of the bus, divided into two halves. Thus, at least two teams are already ready to play. All that remains is to invite them to play. What games? Read this section!

And you can end the trip like this:

Attention, attention! Our liner arrives at the final destination of our journey - to the camp... (1-2 minutes there is a story about the camp).

Dear passengers! We ask you to remain seated until the aircraft comes to a complete stop. The boys get off the bus first and help the girls get off (by the way, girls get on the bus first!). Thank you for choosing our friendly company for your trip. Don't forget your things in the salon. After leaving the plane, we ask you to wait for your flight attendants at the ramp. Good luck to you in everything!

Let's go on a trip

Leading: “Let’s imagine that we have a long and long journey ahead of us. What to take with you? A question that faces every traveler. Name, without interrupting each other, the things you need on a trip.”

The last one to name one of the most necessary things on a trip wins.

Notes. It should be noted that this game may drag on indefinitely. for a long time. And all because the guys “took on a trip” things that were not at all necessary: ​​electric stoves, beloved dogs, bicycles, televisions, even grandmothers, etc. Don’t get too carried away!

The Last Hero

Leading:“Heroes are different. There are hero-travelers, hero-athletes, hero-warriors. And there are heroes of intellectual battles. Let's imagine that we are in an intellectual duel."

Suggested topics:

Flowers. rivers

Animals. lakes

Trees. mountains

Fish. seas, etc.

The last person to name a concept that matches the topic will be the winner.

Notes. It is obvious that the contenders for the title " The last hero“There can be a lot, and several people can win at once. Their names must be mentioned, and the heroes themselves must be greeted with thunderous applause. One person can become a winner in several categories. He needs to be awarded some kind of prize, even a small one.

Of course, this game can be played not only on the bus.

Linguistic workshop

Leading:“You know that linguists are people who study languages various peoples peace. One of the great languages ​​is Russian. How well do you know him?

Which of you can come up with more words with the syllable “kol” (“var”, “dar”, “cancer”, “juice”, etc.)?

He will win and deserve it high rank“Honorary linguist of all times and peoples” is the one who names the most words.”

Notes. The winners must be celebrated. Try to very clearly record the number of words named by each child. Appoint children from among the children as experts (the names of the experts should also be named).

Graphomania

Leading:“We are absolutely sure that since you know who linguists are, you should also know who graphomaniacs are. Well, if anyone has forgotten, we remind you: graphomaniacs are people who have a passion for writing books. You and I won’t write books, but we’ll try to compose them.

Try to come up with a funny sentence using the following groups of words:

Stick, herring, jackdaw, plate;

Christmas tree, digger, hay, chant;

Hanger, river, teacher, ring;

Task, lemon, luck, lap dog.

Remember, your proposal must be really funny or at least original."

Notes. By explaining to children that they should not interrupt each other, you will save your nerves and vocal cords children.

School of young mimes

Presenter: “If you know who linguists and graphomaniacs are, then you, like educated people, should know who mimes are. Mimes are very similar to clowns. They masterfully control their body and can convey all their feelings and states with the help of gestures, plasticity and facial expressions. That's why they are called "memes". These are artists who do not resort to speech. Would you like to take a course at our School of Young Mimes?

You are already divided into rows on the bus, and there will be two teams of mimes. In one team, my partner will be the mime teacher (have you forgotten his name yet?), and in the other team (can you remember my name?) it will be me. One team thinks of a word, chooses a driver from the other team, and tells him this word. The driver must convey the meaning of the word through facial expressions and gestures so that the other team can guess the given word.”

Notes. The hidden word must be a noun. This game can be somewhat complicated for middle-aged and older children. Ask them to add an adjective to the noun. Moreover, explain that this adjective can be very conditionally combined with a noun. For example: a cheerful vacuum cleaner, a rollicking hare, a bitten bagel, etc. Children’s imagination is inexhaustible!

Sea battle

Leading:"Attention! We are present at historical event! In a few minutes, a global naval battle will begin in the waters of Quiet Joy Bay! The battle will take place between the squadron of ships of Captain Flint (right row) and the fleet of Her Majesty the Queen of England (left row).

The teams depict themselves swimming (you can “swim” in any style you like). I will raise the right one, then left hand. This is a signal for the right or left row that you need to camouflage yourself from the reconnaissance ship - you need to put your hands in front of you. If hands are raised at the wrong time or by mistake, this is counted as a defeat to the ship - the participant is eliminated from the game. The team with the most undestroyed ships will win.”

Notes. This game can be played differently: teams first draw maps for themselves (based on the location of the seats occupied by children on the bus) and mark on them the location of the ships of their squadron or fleet. In addition, each team must have a card of the opposing team. It is imperative to agree on which ships (and in what quantity) will be in each squadron (there should be an equal number of them).

Re-singings

The essence of the game is extremely simple: who will outsing whom. But the topics must be suggested by the counselor or teacher. So, which team knows more songs: about the sun (summer, sea, forest, friends, etc.), with female (male) names, with names of cities (flowers, musical instruments etc.).

Notes. Songs must include keywords(sun, sea, summer, etc.). You must perform at least two lines of the verse or chorus. Repeating songs already performed is not allowed. Each song has at least three verses, and therefore you can “sing” each other endlessly...

Song kilometers

Leading:“Distances can be measured in different ways: kilometers, miles, feet, yards, light years. Have you tried to measure the distance from the city to the camp with songs?”

Notes. You should not take such “measurements” if you drive more than an hour to the camp.

“You are still alive, my old lady” (letter to mother)

In order to dispel the bitterness of parting with parents, it is necessary to distract children from sad thoughts. You could, for example, suggest writing a funny letter to your parents. You don't have to wait until you arrive at camp to write this short message. After all, some of the children are worried here and now.

So, it’s decided - we’ll write a letter! Moreover, all children (or almost all) should take part in writing the letter, and it will be written the same for all parents. Only the addressees and signatures of the children will change.

Children need to come up with ten key nouns, one way or another related to the theme of the camp (road, the guys themselves, counselors, bus, suitcases, weather, sun, etc.). The nouns are written down by the counselors in the order in which they were spoken. Now you need to come up with fifteen adjectives, they can be anything: diminutive, abusive (in moderation!), and best of all - friendly.

Words are written down as they are “invented.”

Notes. You can prepare for this game in advance: compose the text of a letter on the topic of life in a camp, detachment, etc. The text should omit ten nouns and fifteen adjectives, which are inserted into the letter already on the bus. If the letter is written with a certain amount of humor, then you can hope that the joke will succeed. Now all that remains is to read the text with expression. Yes, we almost forgot: the letter should begin with Yesenin’s famous lines: “You are still alive, my old lady, I am also alive, hello to you, hello!”

It’s better if the letter is not read by the children’s parents, because in fact it’s just a joke...

Riddles and guesses

Leading:“You play well! I wonder if you can solve riddles? Now I will read several unusual riddles, and you will try to guess them. These riddles are unusual because they are colored!

Who guessed the most riddles? He needs to be given a prize urgently!”

Notes. You can take riddles not only from this book. Don’t overdo it - choose riddles based on the age of the children.

D Getting to camp usually takes at least an hour and a half. And if all this time you just sit and watch out the window, she definitely won’t seem cheerful. What can you do with this time?
Already on the way to the camp, the counselor should begin to form a detachment. And most importantly, you need to come up with some kind of entertainment during the journey. Let's get to work!
· We choose team competitions that can be held without leaving your seats.
· Prepare some chants or noisy games.
· We wrap it in a plot outline (for example, an adventure trip) - and we can begin.
This is how one winter the junior squad traveled to the snowy kingdom.

Farewell to parents

Chants: “Moms, dads, goodbye, don’t be sad when you say goodbye,” “Goodbye, our parents, your tormentors are leaving.”

Who remembers the names of the counselors?

“You’ve already met us, and now we want to get to know you, so on the count of three, everyone will shout out their name loudly.”
The counselors try to guess how many Mash, Dim, Sing and other names are in the squad; check how the children remember each other's names.

What did you take to the camp?

Have you forgotten anything?
- Did you get a towel?
– Good mood didn't you forget?
- Did you take the eyes?
– Did you take a toothbrush and toothpaste?
- And the fried hippopotamus?
– Yellow submarine?
– Did you forget your spare knees? (It becomes clear how they managed to pack them in the suitcase where they are sold, and whether there is permission to transport this valuable item on the bus.)

Polar explorers

– Now, while we are riding on the bus, you and I will be polar explorers getting to the snowy kingdom. And I and the second counselor (name) will be the leaders of the expedition.
Look I have a map North Pole, and along it we will move to the Snow Kingdom. This row is one expedition, and your flag is blue, and this row is another expedition, and your flag is green. Whoever gets to the checkpoint faster puts his flag on the right of a pioneer.
Is everyone ready to go on this dangerous and difficult journey? - Yes! - Then let's go!

Polar explorers, hands up!
The counselor explains: “Since the north is very beautiful, but at the same time it is very dangerous place“, you all must be able to clearly and quickly carry out our commands so as not to die” (different teams are offered at the choice of the counselor).

Koltsovka - what you need to take on an expedition to the North Pole.
The words of the counselor: “Now let’s check if you took everything, didn’t forget anything, or maybe you put in something extra.”
Expedition list.
The leader suggests: “Let’s check if everything is assembled and make a list for the expedition. Here are some sheets of paper, you need to write your name and pass it on.”

Koltsovka – types of movement on snow.
The counselor says: “What do you think we will have to use to get to the Snow Kingdom: skis, dog and reindeer sleds, a snowmobile, an all-terrain vehicle, a sled...”

Code words.
Voice imitating a radio: “Attention, attention, a snow storm is approaching. We transmit the location next point. Accept the numbers 37 and 52 kkh-kh, pi-i-i... And then each expedition heard its own, but individually this information will not give anything, so you must convey to each other what you heard. But because of the snowstorm, it’s very difficult to shout to each other.”
“Shi-ro-ta”, “dol-go-ta” - each syllable is shouted at the same time.

The verse is an echo.
Counselor: “On the map these are the coordinates of the mountains, but because of the snow storm there is very poor visibility, so we have to shout all the time; and as soon as we hear the answer, it means it’s an echo, and we’ve reached the mountains.”
What time is it now? (hour)
What time will it be in an hour? (hour)
No, it's not true, there will be two, (ah)
Think, think head, (ah)
How does the rooster crow in the village? (uh)
Yes, not an owl, but a rooster! (uh)
Are you sure that's true? (How)
But in reality, how? (How)
Is it an elbow or an eye? (eye)
But what do you have? (nose)
What is two and two? (two)
You can't be trusted at all. (Zya)
Are you always good? (Yes)
Or only sometimes? (Yes)
Are you tired of answering? (No)
I allow you to remain silent.

Marine terms.
The counselor addresses the children: “You and I have reached the mountains, and behind the mountains a vast sea awaits us, covered with thick ice. And before we continue our journey, I will tell you words, and you will have to translate them into the maritime language.”
- In sea cook, this is... (cook).
– Underwater rock (reef).
– A place where a ship can sit on the bottom (ground) for a long time.
– What is the name of the window on a ship? (Porthole.)
– Ship brake (anchor).
– What helps ships find their way in the fog? (Lighthouse.)
– God of the sea (Neptune).
– A bagel that doesn’t sink (lifebuoy).
– Striped like zebras, they climb ropes like monkeys (sailors).

Pass the lifebuoy (ball) to the drowning person and back.
The counselor can play it like this: “You have to walk on the ice very carefully, otherwise you can fall through the ice. This is a dangerous place, we pass it carefully... The last one failed, we urgently need to save him.”

Fishes.
The counselor asks the children: “While the victims were under water, they managed to see a lot of fish. What kind of fish did they see?

Counting verse.
The counselor addresses the children: “We are great, we crossed the sea. And now you can take a break. I’ll read you a poem.”
Seryozhka fell into the snow
And behind him Alyoshka,
And behind him Irinka,
And behind her is Marinka,
And then Ignat fell,
How many guys are there in the snow? (5 people)

Koltsovka - animals of the north.
The words of the counselor: “Now tell me, what animals of the North Pole did you see during our trip?”

Secret word.
Children must whisper the intended words (for example, “northern lights”) from end to end of the bus, but so that the second counselor (spy satellite) does not hear anything.
The counselor can preface this competition with the following words: “Our journey is coming to an end, and you must radio the mainland secret information that you learned in the last paragraph. But this must be done in such a way that spy satellites do not intercept this information.”

Pie is a mystery verse.
- And finally, on the occasion of this joyful moment, as the end of our journey, I propose to bake a festive cake.
I wanted to throw a ball
And I'm visiting...
I bought flour, I bought cottage cheese,
Baked crumbly...
Pie, knives and forks are here,
But there’s something the guests don’t...
I waited as long as I could,
Then a piece...
Then he pulled up a chair and sat down
And the whole pie in a minute...
When the guests arrived,
Not even crumbs...

And now the Snow Kingdom is in sight!
Counselor: “Let’s arrange a noise orchestra when we arrive at the place (children are invited to shout “hurray”, clap their hands, stomp their feet, squeal with joy, throw their hats in the air). Now let’s practice!”
Here are a few more competitions that are always successfully held on the bus:
Pass in rows:
– write your name on the balloon and pass it on;
– tie a knot on the rope and pass it on;
– unwind the roll toilet paper, without tearing it, and then wind it back;
- claps; you need to put your hands on the backs of the seats, palms up, and, having received a clap from the person sitting behind you, pass the clap to the person sitting in front;
– general handshake – everyone on the bus must hold hands;
– a bell so it doesn’t ring.
Throwing balloons from row to row in a certain time. At the end of this time, which side had more balls on it, that team lost.
Sing songs.
Launching balloons and airplanes from the last rows.
Riddles, puzzles, shifters, funny questions.
Question and answer. One pack of paper sheets contains questions, the other contains answers. Children take turns pulling out a question and then an answer and read what happened.
A story with adjectives. We prepare some kind of story in advance, for example, about the camp we are going to. But instead of adjectives we leave spaces. On the bus, children are asked for any adjectives and written down. free seats in the story. Then read what happened.

Don’t forget to dress up the competitions in some kind of outline, that is, come up with a “legend”, because no one is interested in just competing in throwing balls or unwinding toilet paper!

One of the disadvantages of even the most exciting travel is the need to spend quite a lot of time on the road, for example, traveling by train or bus. However, there are many interesting and unusual games that do not require special props, but allow you to spend time usefully, having fun and joking along the way.

How not to get bored on the road - TOP 10 games for company on the road

Contact

A presenter is selected - his task is to think of any word and tell the participants the capital letter.

Now each participant thinks of a new word starting with this letter, and, without saying it out loud, tries to explain to the other participants what he thought of. If another participant guessed what we're talking about, he must say loudly “There is contact!” and at the same time as the person wishing, begin to count out loud by ten. When the count is finished, you need to say the word again at the same time.

If the spoken words match, the presenter names the second letter - then everything continues according to the same rules. If there is no match, then you need to come up with another word and explain it again.

Get to know me

Participants must sit in a row. A presenter is selected and blindfolded. Feeling the players, he must guess the hidden person among them.

To guess, you can feel only those parts of the body established by the rules before the start of the game.

I've never...

This game is perfect for travelers who want to get to know each other better. To carry it out, you will need chips, but virtually any objects can play their role:

• napkins;
• coins;
• matches and much more.

The first player begins to tell what he has never done in his life. If among the participants there are those who were engaged in this business, they must give one chip to the wisher.

Hat

For this game you will need some simple props:

• hat or cap;
• small sheets of paper;
• pen or pencil.

Each participant must come up with any ten words and write them on paper. The leaves move into the cap.

Next, participants take turns taking leaves out of the hat and, within a limited time, must explain to others what is written on the paper. For each word guessed, a point is awarded, and the one who has the most points at the end of the game wins.

Cucumber

You can't play this game on public transport, but you might have a lot of time waiting for a train or plane. So, first you need to choose one leader among everyone, and the rest form a circle around him so that their shoulders are adjacent, but their hands are hidden behind their backs.

As soon as everything is ready, the participants begin to pass the cucumber behind their backs, and when the opportunity is given, they still need to quickly take it out from behind their backs and bite off a piece. The presenter needs to guess who is in at the moment holding a cucumber. If he succeeds, then he changes places with him.

The game ends after the last piece of cucumber is swallowed.

Secret Keeper

This is not just an interesting and fun game. It will help you thoroughly stretch your brain! The chosen presenter comes up with a well-known aphorism or quote, but he tells all participants only how many words there are in the sentence.

Now players can ask the guesser any leading questions, trying to understand what kind of phrase he came up with. In his answers, the presenter must speak one word from a quote or aphorism, and the answer must consist of one sentence.

Based on the results of the answer, players must guess what phrase they were told.

Danetki

If your group loves detectives, this game is created just for you - because you will have to solve real mysteries!

So, the essence of the game is that the presenter narrates some part of the event. After listening carefully to him, the other players try to reconstruct the complete sequence of events.

To do this, they ask the presenter questions, but they need to be formulated in such a way that they can answer in any of three words:

• Irrelevant.

You can come up with stories yourself, or you can search on the Internet.

Fanta

One of the oldest, but no less exciting games. Each player throws one thing into the bag (it is clear that the bag may not be on the road, and therefore you can use an opaque bag).

A blindfold is put on one of the participants, and the presenter takes out any item from the bag. The player who is blindfolded, without seeing the object, must come up with a task for its owner, and he must complete it, using the elongated object.

Jenga

You can’t really play this game on a train either, but in a parking lot or in a hotel, at the airport while waiting for a flight, it’s quite possible. For Jenga you will need smooth wooden blocks from which the tower is formed.

At each individual level, the blocks are laid out in different directions- so, the bars of the first and second levels will be perpendicular to each other, as well as the second and third, third and fourth, and so on.

The essence of the game is that each participant must pull out one of the bars anywhere in the tower and move it to the top. The player whose actions to move the block will cause the tower to fall will lose.

Crocodile

One of the most popular games for companies. Its essence is to use gestures to show the word that was guessed. The person demonstrating the riddle is prohibited from making any sounds, pointing to objects, or trying to demonstrate the word syllable by syllable.

The one who guesses correctly shows the word himself in the next round, and the one who showed it before guesses for him.

Associations

There are no winners or losers, but fun is guaranteed! Participants sit in a row or in a circle. The first person speaks any word into the neighbor’s ear, who, without hesitation, passes it on, but not this word, but any other that he associates with the first. And so on, until the last participant. The result of the game can be completely unexpected and the “locomotive” can easily turn into a “stripper”.

Excursions may be long distances, so large number Children spending time on the bus with no activity can make them very tired. To prevent this from happening, you can simply sing songs, but it’s more interesting if you play.

Ring of songs

The bus interior is divided into two teams. In order to win this game, you need to know a lot of songs. Whichever team sings them the most will be the winner! The first team sings a verse from any song, as soon as they finish, the second team immediately sings a verse from another song. This game is very variable, and its conditions depend on your imagination. These can be songs on a specific topic; one team can sing a song containing a question, and the second team sings a song containing the answer to that question; there may be songs in which numbers appear, etc.

What did I see

This game is for attention. In it, the guys must count the number of illogical judgments in the poem that the counselor will read:

I saw the lake on fire

A dog in trousers on a horse,

The house has a hat instead of a roof,

Cats caught by mice.

I saw a duck and a fox

That a plow plows a meadow in the forest,

Like a bear trying on shoes,

And like a fool, he believed everything.

Because of the forest, because of the mountains

Grandfather Yegor was driving.

He's on a piebald cart,

On an oak horse

He is belted with a club,

Leaning on the sash,

Wide-leg boots,

The jacket is on bare feet.

A village was driving past a man,

And from under the dog the gate barks,

The horse grabbed the whip

Whipping a man

Black cow

Leads the girl by the horns.

Petki-Vaski

The counselor plays the role of the leader, and the guys are divided into two teams - one - “Petka”, the other - “Vaska”. All together below:

In a sunny meadow

There is a green house.

And on the porch of the house

"Petka."

Petka! I have a checkered shirt!

I came to you, kids,

To eat candy!

"Vaska."

Vaska! My pants have polka dots!

I came from a fairy tale

Because I'm good!

All this is done several times, the counselor points to one or the other team, and at the end of the game - to both teams at once, and one of them must shout out the other.

I'm riding a tank
I see a cow
In a hat with earflaps
With a healthy horn!
Hello, cow,
How are you doing?
Do you speak English?
What are you calling me names?
I'm sailing in a submarine -
Cow again
In a mask and fins
With a healthy horn!
Hello, cow
Where are you going?
Shprechen sie Deutsch?
What are you calling me names?
I'm flying by helicopter
Cow again
By parachute
With a stern look
Hello cow
Where are you flying to?
Assalam alekum
What are you calling me names?

We comment on all the words with appropriate movements (showing the cow’s horns, driving, turning the steering wheel, etc.)

Two rows on the bus act as two teams.
If the counselor raises right hand up, then the first team shouts “Goal!” If the counselor raises his left hand, then the second team shouts “Past!”
If both hands are raised, both teams shout “Hurray!”

Material provided by Vladislav Afonin

- Who remembers the names of the counselors?

You have already met us, and now we want to get to know you. Therefore, on the count of “three,” everyone will loudly shout out their name (the counselors are trying to guess how many Masha, Dim, ... are in the detachment; Your name is Fedya, no?, What? Masha? Everyone remembers that this is Masha, not Fedya, ... )

Now we will run a roll of toilet paper through the rows. Let everyone rewind for themselves as much as they want. Did you rewind? Well done! Now we fold the paper like an accordion. Well, now, unbending our accordion, we will talk about ourselves one sentence at a time for each bend. I wonder whose story will be longer? When starting your story, don't forget to introduce yourself.

Material provided by Vladislav Afonin

And finally, on the occasion of such a joyful moment, our journey successfully ends. I suggest you bake a holiday cake!

I wanted to throw a ball.
And I am visiting myself...
I bought flour, I bought cottage cheese
Baked crumbly...
Pie, knives and forks are here
But there’s something the guests don’t...
I waited as long as I could
Then a piece...
Then he pulled up a chair and sat down
And the whole pie in a minute...
When the guests arrived,
Not even crumbs...

Two rows on the bus act as two teams. For any letter (for example, A) called the leader, children must name the things that they want to take with them on the road (watermelon, nuclear-powered ship, apricot, alligator...).

(The name of the camp and the text of the letter are taken as a sample and can be changed as desired)

Now you and I will all write a letter together about our journey to the Zvezdochka camp. More precisely, it has already been written, but all the adjectives and adverbs have disappeared from it somewhere, and the letter has become boring and uninteresting. What adjectives can fill it in? You will shout out the words you think you need, we will fill in the blanks, and then we will see what we can come up with.

“Our……….road to…………camp “Zvezdochka”
……….on a May morning we …………arrived at the …………….MATI Institute, where all the most …………….people were supposed to gather - we are the future………..counselors! After…………..the lineup we were all seated on………….buses. Our …………..instructors – …………Vasya and ……………Katya were traveling with us.

We hope that ………….the days spent here will be the most ………….., ………….. and unforgettable for us!!! »

The bus interior is divided into two teams.

“A competition is being announced for the best ship crew. For this we need to know a lot of songs. Whichever team sings them the most will be the winner! But the main thing is that the song contains words about the sea, sailors, and sea ships.”
This game is very variable and its conditions depend on your imagination. These could be songs about Moscow, there could be songs in which numbers appear: “million, million, million scarlet roses"; “...the girl from apartment 45”; “...one word, two words...”
A more challenging version of this game is the Question and Answer game, where the team takes turns taking a question from one song and an answer from another.

For example:
“Why are you standing there, swaying?..”
“...The sea wave is rocking and rocking.”
It is possible for one team to ask a question in song form, and the second, again from the lyrics of the songs, selects an answer.

The counselor plays the role of the leader, and the guys are divided into two teams: one is “Petka”, the other is “Vaska”.

In a sunny meadow
There is a green house.
And on the porch of the house
A cheerful gnome is sitting.

"Petki":

Fuck! I have a gingham shirt!
I came to you, girls,
To eat candy!

"Vaska":

Wow! I have polka dot pants!
I came here from a fairy tale,
Because I'm good!

All this is done several times, the counselor points to one or the other team, and at the end of the game - to both teams at once, and one of them must shout out the other.

Relay race on a bus - this really happens.

You can pass a matchbox at speed along the rows. Or you can pass a cardboard with a pencil along each row, and each participant must write a word of four or five letters on the cardboard passed along his row. When counting, the number of letters and time are taken into account.

Cardboard and pencil can be used to play dating.
To do this, the guys must write their names on cardboard. After the end of the game, the counselor announces statistical data: how many Svet, Igor, Len, Sash, etc. we have.

The guys on the bus are divided into several “sectors” and given the following task:

Now I give you a word that should be present in the song. So, the word - (for example) - SEA. A minute is given to “think”...the minute is over.

team No. 1 - the guys sing..."Moooooore, moooore... bottomless world..." - ACCEPTED.

team No. 2 - “And there, beyond the seas, where the storms were raging, there lived a girl with a strange name, and it often happened: in the open air, in her dreams, she sailed into the blue sea... Scarlet Sails, scarlet sails..." - ACCEPTED!

team No. 3 - We need seas and oceans, we don’t need walls and barriers... (modern song - anyone other than the team knows - it’s suitable...), etc.

The team that knows the most songs wins.

We can find out if we forgot to take something important with us to camp. To do this, you ask questions like: “Did you get a towel?”, “Did you get a good mood?”, “Did you get your eyes?”, “Did you get a fried hippo?”, and the guys will answer them in unison. If it turns out that someone took a yellow submarine or spare knees with them to camp, ask how they managed to pack them in a suitcase, where they are sold, whether it is possible to look at it, try it on, and whether there is permission to carry this valuable item on the bus. Just don’t turn your comment from humorous to sarcastic.

Invite the children to guess your name, and then the name of your father, from which they will derive your patronymic. And then they can try to guess your favorite song (name a popular and familiar song so that you have a chance to hear it performed at your request), your favorite dish etc.
